Commercially or artistically?

Started on the Horus Heresy books. The first one, Horus Rising by Dan Abnett, really surprised me with how good it was. I'm on book three at the moment and they're still pretty good. I'm not going to do the whole thing, my plan is to read the first five and the last four or so, picking out some...

The 1e DMG is a work of art. I ran 2e a few years back but made heavy use of the tables in that DMG. I started with 2e and the Mentzer red box so that's where my nostalgia falls back to but if someone started with 1e I could absolutely see that the power of nostalgia is big enough to overcome...

I did something like this with a computer system at work. Worked great until there was an upgrade that locked me out and I had to call the helpdesk and answer the questions verbally in an open office.

What's a 'narrative mechanic'?

I don't think GW have ever hired the Pinkertons, used alleged abusers and conspiracy theorists as consultants, or attempted to back out of binding legal agreements

4E will never die. Even after the last books have been purged and the last fans have been cowed into silence, it will continue to live rent-free in the heads of its detractors.

Rolemaster 2 100%. Accept no substitutes. RMSS adds a heap more complexity for little reason, and all subsequent editions appear to have been poisoned by the need to somehow merge the different threads together. RM2 is also the closest to MERP itself, you could very easily just take MERP and add...

You guys mollycoddle your players with all this free information. I just say 'you find some colourful rocks'. 😏
