OSR Why does OSR Design Draw You In?

[Micah Sweet]

That's the only thing I idealize about 3e - not the class builds and theorycrafting, but the breadth of the simulationist toolbox that it provided DMs (and simpler mechanics). AD&D was similar in many regards, but the rules are not as smooth for those who are only used to 5e. Maybe a5e is my best option for that - I've been wishing that there was a simulationist 5e. I'm curious what your rules doc looks like.

It's very long, because it's also a reference for my players, and I wanted to not have to go through a bunch of documents to find a specific rules widget. I'm in the process of transcribing everything I'm using that's not from an explicitly A5e source (WotC D&D or some other 5e). I'd be happy to share it if you send a message.
