Message:We played the original as a group for about four levels. Was fun even as one player lost a few characters before he got finally one over the hump to level two. he was playing a low hp wiz and you don't get to hide behind tanks in this Fantasy OSR.
Would have been fun back in
press for time college. The Hex Crawl does push the game into more to do.
We'll test another month past edits and see what happens. Maybe next weekend I'll throw a group together. The Wizards and Zaires portion (not the afterthought portion) seems very fun. It's darkly dark. No game is as dark. This is Carlin at end of career dark for an rpg.
Yours,
