A lot of fun, very interesting, and completely unnecessary to play the game. So, to me they were excellent articles.<br /><br />I think that Greenwood's idea, as I read the article or rather skim it, is that the rules exist to adjudicate what players attempt to do with their characters. When a player is just starting out, it's probably just as well if they don't know the rules, but just try to do things that they think should work. Let the Referee deal with the rules. They can pick up the specifics of play as they go along.faoladhhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03691952430041394614noreply@blogger.com
