This email confused me. The author seems to be saying that Microlite74 needs a new edition just because it is four years old and will be five years old next year. That makes no sense to me. The only reason I can see to produce a new edition of Microlite74 would be to revise the rules to make it a better game. However, Microlite74 works as well today as it did in 2011 when it was released. It also accomplished all the goals I had for it: produce a stable 0e-like game for people who like the Microlite20 take on D20 mechanics and that could be easily built on with optional rules and to produce variant games. I don't see at need for a fourth edition of Microlite74 -- at least not at this time.
Am I wrong? Do you think there needs to be an new edition of Microlite74? Are the issues with Microlite74 that need to be fixed and are large enough changes to require a fourth edition of the game? If so, what are do you believe they are?
Newer must be better, eh?
ReplyDeleteWith some proper argument, maybe. I think it looks quite good as is.
