[QUOTE="Hussar, post: 6260523, member: 22779"] Seemed to work pretty well for Savage Worlds though. Ten bucks for SW Explorer Edition. And that's hardly a rules light game or even a limited one. Heck, Basic/Expert managed to pack 18 levels or so into 128 pages. You can play for a LONG time with those two softbound books. I really, really hope they bring back a Basic/Expert game along side D&D. Give it support and use that as the gateway. So what if you have to buy the "Advanced" game if you want more options? Good grief, how cheap should people be? I think that people really over estimate how price impacts sales. Not saying that there is no impact, but, we're not exactly talking about high end products here. We're talking the price of a night at the movies. Similar to a video game. Heck, a decent board game touches close to a hundred dollars now. (Just got me Eclipse for Christmas - very fun) The idea that a thirty dollar Basic set complete with 1-3 levels, an introductory module, a set of dice and maybe a grid map, would be too expensive I think isn't really in touch with the prices of hobby games anymore. Heck, a set of dice runs you ten bucks in a lot of places. [/QUOTE]
