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.

How to balance Feats in Purest Essence?

Post by koval2 »

I felt like combat was too borning, so i allowed to pick any Feat from Golden Edition, I liked how Figter feats worked out like Frenzy or Cleave, but when Clerics or Mages take free healing, it makes everyone invunerable. How do i balance it out? Just remove too powerful feats?

Remove them. Place limits on them. Rewrite them so they are less powerful/better for your group. There are a number of ways to balance things, but you have to decide what type of balance you want and modify things as needed to get that balance.

Of course, IMHO, this is true of "balance" in any RPG. Even if the RAW are balanced, chances are they are only really balanced for the author's playstyle and campaign setting.
