A FAST, realistic system which is used for anything from fantasy to science fiction2) Interlock by R. Talsorian (Cyberpunk, Mekton et al.)3) Unisystem by Eden Studios4) BRP by Chaosium (Cthulhu et al...I do not think I need say more)5) AmberSo, as you can see, there are lots of rules lite systems which do not need 1 PHB, 2 DMG, N (for N large) Monster manuals, 1 Dummy Guide and what not.Furthermore, please, pay attention when hosting people like Mr. Dancey who SEEM to talk about science and experiments without obviously knowing what they are speaking about. I speak from a professional viewpoint, being an Associate Researcher in Statistics. And what Mr. Dancey made to pass as an experiment, is, plainly put, ludicrous.I understand that you both are on the payroll of WotC, but there is no need to say blatantly wrong things. You are free to say your opinion, but NOT to pass it for science.Best regards,Antonio Eleuteri</blockquote>
