At Shire Con i played in a Swords and Wizardry Light game. S&W is a 1e clone. S&W is a four page "light" version of the game. 2 pages are for the player. The character sheets were 8.5 x 5.5, class specific to 1 of four classes and with the 2 pages for the player it was all you needed to create a character. You could be any of the classic races dwarf, elf, halfly, human. <div><br /></div><div>Normally I would expect that pregens would be provided at a con but we rolled up characters in approximately 10 minutes and were playing. Except for one individual which brought their character that they used at a previous Con with this game master. </div><div><br /></div><div>Despite it being "light" I thought it was perfect for a convention game. There is no way you would do that with Star Frontiers at a convention Rolling up characters for 8 people would take at least an hour. </div><div><br /></div><div>Features of S&W light were no alignments, no EXP. I did not even miss playing without an alignment. Instead of EXP there were check boxes for adventrues and every 2 or 3 adventures you advance in level. It was very stripped down. </div><div><br /></div><div>it got me thinking that a Star Frontiers Light rule set of 4 pages stripped down to the essentials to play would be perfect for a con game.</div><div><br /></div><div>Character sheets that are PSA specific - Military, Tech, Science, Mentalist. Maybe spacer depends on how we strip this down. </div><div><img src="/files/u4436/IMG_1851_1.jpg" width="1024" height="768" /></div><div><img src="/files/u4436/IMG_1852.jpg" width="1024" height="768" /></div><div><img src="/files/u4436/IMG_1853.jpg" width="1024" height="768" /></div><div><img src="/files/u4436/IMG_1854.jpg" width="1024" height="768" /></div>
