Re: (TFT) TINKERING with the rules...

Hi Rick,
(your one of those insperations by the by, I LOVE TA!)

I've assuredly tweaked the hell outta alot of this but not to the point that it departs from the original so much that it's unrecognizable. It's TFT based and ergo I'm posting here. Just trying to make sure I'm not getting too esoteric.

I also do think that if we agree on certain fundmentals like hex deminsions then it puts us alot further along the course to all playing the SAME game as opposed to stuff like D&D. I hear what your saying about "Your Ruleset to TFT" but all those campaigns that it spawned still came from TFT at its heart. I've got some ideas but they stand largely on this system. Wouldn't be right to push it as all mine.
