Looking for the Free Microlite20/7x/8x/2020 Rules Downloads?

There are well over 100 free downloads of rules (and more) for Microlite20, Microlite2020, Microlite7x, Microlite 81, and their many variants in the Game Download Library area below. These files can be downloaded without creating a membership on this site.

 

 

 

Update (19 Jun 23):

As I mentioned many weeks ago, maintaining the seldom used Wordpress side of this site became too much of a bother, especially as parts of Wordpress are constantly updating and some those updates break things -- like access to this forum. I'm finally had time to remove it. The forum should stop disappearing from view now.

As many of you know, my wife has had MS for about 20 years now. It has gotten to the stage where helping her takes a lot more of my time that it used to. This means visits to this board have become few and far between. I'm looking for a couple of members willing to help moderate this board. Note that if your idea of good moderation is anything similar the way boards like RPG.net are moderated, do not bother volunteering. Good moderation isn't about forcing your opinions, ideological positions, or biases on members via your power to gag and ban, it is about being helpful to all members (even those you don't like/disagree with), cleaning up after spammers, and enforcing the rules with the lightest hand possible and only doing so when the rules are actually broken. If you are interested in any message board moderation position on any board because of the supposed "power" it will give you, you are (IMHO) the wrong person for the job. If you are interested, PM me. It may taken quite a while to reply, unfortunately.

Re: Has DTRPG abandoned small creators?

For instance, my covers used to be simple and boring... perhaps even ugly. I just didn't know how to make a cover. I have worked hard to make my covers a bit more appealing, but they are still clearly amateur. Looking through the Exclusive row on DrivethruRPG just now, I'm seeing lots of simple cov...

Re: Has DTRPG abandoned small creators?

Specifically, on the front page I used to have my products listed in the ' Exclusively on DriveThruRPG.com' section quite often. Now my products just don't show up at all. With that I have also seen my sales go down by 90%. This began in February 2022. I can't say much as: a) I don't have an exclus...

Re: Microlite 20 Trademark, etc.

Now this is really weird. You, Randall, responded to my comment, but it showed up as if it was my response????? That's really strange. The server had a hiccup around the end of June, but I don't think it could have caused that. ::baffled look:: I don't think I've ever seen anything like that before...

The World in this video needs to be an RPG

My wife sent me a link to this 11 minute long video short (Whiddershins) yesterday. After seeing it, I want to play in a game set in this quirky steampunk universe.

Re: New? Introduce Yourself Here!

Hi Randall, Heartseeker is here https://trollish-delver-games.itch.io/heartseeker What I like about is it's ultralight, which means I can read it in my lunch break and have a (very) basic system in place for an RPG game with my family. Thank you! I just picked up a copy for my collection of RL game...

Re: Like the new site design!

I was finally able to log back in!!! Were you having a specific problem? This new site is somewhat complexly "wired" (e.g. logging into the board also logs you in to the wordpress side of the site, registering registers on the board, the wordpress site and the wiki, etc.) and while I try ...

Re: New? Introduce Yourself Here!

On Randall's advice, I am using Microlite81 and I think I will adopt Heartseeker by Trollish Delver games for a really easy start and slowly blend in extra rules and spells from M81 as we progress. Any thoughts or suggestions about this idea are welcome. Welcome! I'm not familiar with Heartseeker. ...

Rules Light RPGs Discord?

https://i.postimg.cc/ZW8VfPV3/logo-6062235-640.png Back when this site was Microlite20 Nexus, I had requests to set up a Discord server for this site. I never did because I don't have time to be active on a Discord server. However, I'm hoping that if this new site attracts more active users some of...

Re: Like the new site design!

Thank you! I've been wanting to do a more general "rights light" games site for a long time. I pretty obviously like Microlite20 and its many variants, but there are a lot of other rules light games that are just as interesting.

Out of curiosity, does anyone know where the trademark/general ownership of Microlite 20 stands?

I haven't heard from Seth in ages. While I'm not an IP lawyer, the Microlite20 trademark is probably unenforceable as neither greywulf or Seth ever tried to stop anyone from using it.
