A nice little primer in playing D&D in a different play style a nod back to older war gaming Kriegsspiel concept. A bit more of a challenging approach to a flavour of more RNG campaigns with a wider scope ,a push back against the 5e ideas of story and balance, more focused on harsh dice and death in a dangerous campaign be it a war or a dungeon crawl with an old school flavour. It's up to the player to take part and contribute and to bring ideas to the table. The emphasis is the players contribute to the game,the DM is expected to be impartial and honour the dice no matter how bad it may go. The idea is to have a a wide-open refereed adventure game that grows organically around the player's actions. Given its price, pay what you want, yeah it's worth a browse to fillet for ideas and add into your own game. Handy for how to West Marches I suppose. My only quibble is it could have used a harsher editor to cut down on some of the more wordy prose and keep it tight.
