[QUOTE="Charlaquin, post: 8640868, member: 6779196"] This kind of approach might actually be exactly what I need. For some additional context, I have a situation where I have more interested players than I can fit in my house, and more than I would care to DM for even if I had the space. An open-table game seems like a great solution to this problem, allowing everyone a chance to play, without having to accommodate them all at the table at once. I had been trying to hack the tools I need to run such a game into 5e and getting frustrated when I came across Questing Beast, and found the premise of OSR very intriguing, as it seems to actively embrace the kinds of things I’ve been having to fight 5e to try and make it do. That, coupled with the fact that I’ve known for a while that my gameplay tastes align in many ways with the OSR “culture of play,” brought me here asking for recommendations. It may be that using 5TD for the player-facing rules and using my own homebrew systems under the hood is exactly the compromise my situation demands. [/QUOTE]
