It is Goodman's response to the idea of 4E, of what je would do if he could go straight back to basics and write an RPG from scratch to emulate old pulp fantasy. His essay about Appendix N in the rules is a pretty great read. The goal is to provide a game that gives the framework where stories similar to old Sword & Sorcery publications emerge in play. It's more 3E and a bit of Rolemaster than it is OD&D , BD&D or AD&D, structurally speaking, but really fast and loose compared to 3E. Worth checking out the free intro rules. The Advebtures also pretty much work with other games, like 5E, pretty smoothly.</p></blockquote><p></p>
