OMM: Pre-Fall In Rules & Book Blitz


Back to Hobby News


Tom Bryant writes:

Khurusu, please don't misunderstand. What I meant to say was along the lines of "why try to follow the crowd" with a hardback volume unless Phil is intending this to be his Magnum Opus. The appeal of DBA was its "counterculture" design ethic. Its a throwback to the "Stone Age" of gaming before glossy hardbacks and full color photo spread pages with rules all over them became the standard for a "good rules set"
