[QUOTE="Malmuria, post: 8640987, member: 7030755"] So honestly, I think any of these systems will work for what you are going for. Any of them will involve hacking and adapting as you play, and your game grows; and they are all amenable to that being rules lite. One of the goals of OSR play is for players to stop looking at the character sheets as a prompt for what they should do next or as a locus of the game. I think that's also true for the dm--the ruleset you are using is less important that the world you are building and the principles you have in mind when running the game. (you probably already have this, but this [URL='https://lithyscaphe.blogspot.com/p/principia-apocrypha.html']document is helpful[/URL]). Runehammer (who created Index Card RPG) has been doing recaps of his OSE games that I find interesting/entertaining, if you have (a lot) of time: [URL='https://youtu.be/h6b2Ii_wv-A?t=131']they are on youtube[/URL] [/QUOTE]
