I just downloaded the Rules Cyclopedia and started giving it a read. I started with Moldvay Basic and Expert, and never got the Mentzer boxes before moving on to AD&D.
Was weapon mastery an option from Mentzer rules? Was it a popular option? I may be looking back through the eyes of my 12 year old self, but weapon mastery seems to add a great deal of complexity to a, relatively, simple game system.
What are your thoughts? Was it worth the added combat rules? Did it play more smoothly in practice than it looks?
