Always go for multi pass!

Would probably go with B/X in the form of Old-School Essentials.

I suspect it will be the same for me. I'm tempted the grab the Starter Set once it hits retail and run a single adventure, though (backed digital only in the campaign because of international shipping).

I'm not sure if DCC would still be consider too D&Dish (I would understand if it was), but if it's not, that would be my first choice. Second choice would be Forbidden Lands - although I find it to excel for overland travel and exploration, I think the dungeon part should still be fine. Third...

Backers of the "Down Among the Dead"-Kickstarter should check their emails and/or BackerKit. There's a lot of final PDFs that were uploaded yesterday.
