re: #444 PT Barnum

I liked traveller, but found that the character generation was the best part. I’ve always been partial to fantasy RPG over Sci-Fi.

Basic Fantasy is white box with D20 mechanics. I like it because it’s very rules light and gets back to what I liked about RPGs, being creative and telling a story not wading through tons of supplemental info to look up some obscure rule.

I prefer Pendragon myself - but that’s pretty genre specific. (And it’s a variation on the older BRP in any case IIRC.)
