In general, the less complex first article is better.Randallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13879930955049101533noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6707455220399106053.post-51387392771657703742009-05-21T12:33:01.047-04:002009-05-21T12:33:01.047-04:00Ok, so I spent some time reading this.

And the 70s vibe of this one is strong. <br />The divine intervention article is superb, and fits in just one page! I like it a lot. With a few tweaks it will be my system from now on.<br />The small dungeon is an early example of a one-page dungeon! It's quite good too, with some nice puzzles and weird acids, and a door only seen it nights of full moon ;).<br />The demon summoning article is very detailed, deep and "realistic", maybe too much.<br />I'm still delving in the rest. Excellent stuff.

Such a huge task in the 70's; so damn easy now to just post stuff to a blog or set up a wiki or whatever.Matthew Slepinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04056247825064943944noreply@blogger.com
