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.

Getting Microlite74 printed

Post by DrRelling »

I'm planning a Microlite74 game for my group, and I'd like to get all the rules printed nicely by a print-on-demand service. Apologies if this is a stupid question, but I'm not sure if this is allowed under the OGL - is this okay? It'd just be a single copy for personal use, I'm not planning to start selling it or anything like that.

Fantastic game, by the way. I'm really looking forward to running it!

It would seem to me that the open source license says it all. You can use anything in the material for your own personal or commercial use as long as you include the license information contained on the last page. Ultimately it will really depend upon your printer. Some will print whatever you hand them and some will require proof of permission. That is contained in the license information section.

And some are downright unreasonable. I've taken to adding specific permission to print copies to all the new gamesI publish simply to make it harder for the unreasonable copy shops to refuse to print stuff because they can't understand the OGL or the fact that someone would make an entire game open content.

Thanks for confirming! I've ordered a copy from lulu.com. It took a little wrangling to get it into the format they want - assuming they do a good job with it, I can post the print files if you like?
