P&P

[Alex Koponen]

My forte is in dealing with rules. While okay at stories and background I
don't feel that that is where my time would best be spent. While I am
gradually working up my own system (to be called WHAM - Wizards, Hereos And
Monsters) my intent on this post is to improve the game mechanics of P&P
without changing it beyond recognition.
