[QUOTE="jaerdaph, post: 5122294, member: 3398"] I've been using Microlite20 to successfully run a "D&D" game for my nephews (ages 10 and 7) for a few months now. They both had no trouble at all comprehending the simple rules, and because it really is easy to import a lot of existing d20 material into M20, they feel like they can use the "grown up" books (they're naturally attracted to all the cool artwork) to pick out monsters to fight, equipment, treasure etc., which is great because they are reading more, using their imaginations and becoming "converts" to tabletop roleplaying even thought they are living in the Playstation2/Wii/Gameboy age. The younger one really likes to design his own monsters and make his own dungeons, which I think is really cool. B-) I think that's another good thing about Microlite20 that doesn't get emphasized enough - it serves as a great introduction to roleplaying for younger kids as well, but because of its design that allows you to use all the "big" source books, they still feel like they are playing a real grownup game of "Dungeons & Dragons".
