Microlite75 2.0 Basic Draft 1 Available for Donor Download
The first draft of Microlite75 2.0 Basic is now available for download in the Donor area of Microlite20 Download Library.
While this is a first draft, the game is really ready to go (except for proofreading, layout, and a final decision on how I am going to handle saving throws). The Microlite20-based level advancement and experience systems of Microlite74 have been replaced with systems much more similar to those of 0e (similar to how Microlite81 handled things). Charisma has been added as a fourth stat — it is really too important to old school gaming to leave out. Morale Ratings have been added for monsters. Group initiative is now standard — with individual initiative optional — reversing how it was in Microlite74 Basic. Spellcasters have to memorize spells. Saving Throws are currently handled by a one throw system somewhat like S&W, but I may switch to a more standard 0e system.
