It's a big adventure? Plus a GM screen and a bunch of randomizers and whatnot that wouldn't fit in the original rules book.

I backed it. I couldn't resist.

I don't think there's a good answer to this question. It all depends on the system and the setting. The more rules you have the more book you need. That sounds like the captain obvious answer, I know, but it's true. Personally, I do like games that have a players and a GM book, but it's simply...

I backed it. Worth it even just to plunder bits for my regency england OSR bricolage.

The combat rules in Stara Szkola are marvelous. SS the OSR treatment of a crunchier game called Codex Martialis. Both were specifically designed to have interesting and somewhat historically informed combat rules. I can only speak for Stara Szkola though and I don't own CM yet.

Hex paper of many sizes is freely available online, that's where I get mine from. Mind you, I can print of reams of stuff at work for free, which not everyone can.

The system in Stara Szkola uses a d20 die pool for combat. You start with one d20 and can add more via various careers, up to a maximum of four. Extra dice in a given round are available via extra success, special moves, and circumstance. The die pool represents what you can do in a round, both...

It does. I'd have to look but I know that's in one of the two books I have (there's the rules and one supplement atm - $16 CAD for both PDFs, so the buy-in is low).

You should check out Stara Szkola, it's a OSR-ish rule set designed specifically for the combat system and for use in historical(ish) settings. There's a lot of practical HEMA and academic experience that went into the game and the combat mechanic is slick. It's a d20 die pool system that...

I own Electric Bastionland and love it, but haven't gotten to run it. I'm currently working up a Mausritter game at the request of my 7 year-old who was quite taken with the idea of playing a dashing mouse adventurer. I really like the Mausritter mechanics. As mentioned above, the inventory...

The game collapses gracefully back to a basic 2d6 roll very nicely and that can handle anything. I have no idea why people think many of the things they do about the PbtA engine. My other head scratcher is calling it GMing with training wheels. IDK, People gonna people.

I had it pegged as the same Cess that comes at the front of cesspit.

I have this book, it's wonderful.

That looks awesome. I'm sold.

Dolmenwood is my vote. I have the backer beta PDFs and it is glorious. So excited for the hardbacks and all the KS goodies.

I'm a big fan of Trophy Gold for this sort of application. It's pretty rules light but was designed to fill this precise design space. I've used it run original D&D modules converted on the fly and it's been grand (although that does take some experience GMing the system). There's a great dark...

Where's your MJ GIF at? I think that's the acceptable move here.

I'll happily toss another cap in the ring. I keep a special supply of tossing caps for just such occasions. Edit: Perhaps I'm too late, oh well. Next time!
