At the moment, I've distilled S&W Basic down to six pages for S&W Light. This is the first pass, there are still some tables that need editing and there is a bunch of stuff that needs rewriting for space and explanation purposes.
BTW, that's 6 pages using the Word document. Laid out properly it's probably around 4ish.
All 18 included monsters fit on one sheet. Most monsters took 2 lines but a few took 3, such as the Giant Fire Beetle.
There is no XP entry as we are leaving out the concept of XP. Two adventures to reach level 2, five more adventures to reach level 3, at which point the player is expected to move on to one of the three Swords & Wizardry rulesets with 5,000 XP

ReplyDeleteWith a cover, back, and the six existing internal pages, you've got a great 8-page fold-and-staple booklet going on
Deletegoal is still 4 pages, with the cover including game info
Deletedown to 4 1/2 pages after i killed needless charts, but now i need to rewrite and make it user friendly
i expect i'll come to 6 pages in word, then we'll see what can be done to bring that down in size
