I found a copy of this game, and it only seems to suffer from the calculations you have to make. Many of them, however, can be handled by a simple spreadsheet, as many factors won't change often. A friend and I ran some isolated combat, and loved the realism, including fatigue factors for heavy armor and heavy weapons. The magic system is equally complex, but once again, it is simplified by a spreadsheet. Most of the combat rules seem aimed at large scale combat, which I have yet to try, but looks interesting. If you're a first-timer, I don't recommend it. Play D&D or D6, or any of the more user-friendly games. But if you're looking for a challenge, give this one a read. It is to most fantasy games what Unix is to a Mac. 209.217.216.219 (talk) 20:23, 27 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
