The subtitle labels it as "Another way to play minimalist DnD." The game mine is based on actually uses a few more d20 rolls for saves and stunts (Heroic Feats in RoA). I just found the added math for what basically amounts to a pass/fail didn't need to be so complex.As for the Heroic Feats. Yes I meant for them t be used in place of skills from more mechanically crunchy games. It is supposed to be dead simple, its just up to the DM to read the situation. For example a dwarven thief wishes to use some tools to bypass a lock. Normally a PC, if they have the tools, can do this on a roll of a 5 or 6. Thieves get +1 for Heroic Feats of subterfuge, is this such a feat? Dwarves also get+2 for Feats involving craftsmanship. Again does this apply? Personally I'd say hell yes! But it really depends on the situation. That is part of the charm of a rules light game but also the down side. These games require a certain amount of trust between players and the DM. As for your specific example I'd say climbing a rope is not a Heroic Feat it. If you needed to climb the rope and haul your buddies incapacitated butt on your back while holding a sack of gold, that seems more appropriate. Perhaps a line about a Heroic feats are only needed if failing has dire consequences...Thanks for your feedback. If you ever try it out let me know how it goes.</blockquote>
