This is particularly exciting for me as the original Fable game was perhaps my first introduction to fantasy role playing games, and from there to tabletop role playing like Dungeons and Dragons. What would be a good introduction nowadays? It's nowhere near the best, but it works terrifically as the introduction to an RPG. Sefirah is an absolutely amazing fantasy RPG and it will be your new experience. Steve Jackson did something like this back in the day. I was determined to wrap up the adventure today, so the session opened with Zanzer Tem and a bugbear guard kicking open the door to the room they were in and starting a fight. INTRODUCTION What is Classic Fantasy? Experience the dynamic combat on large battlefields! Back in the day, I know a lot (although by no means all) of people got their introduction to RPGs through Red Box D&D or Fighting Fantasy Gamebooks or even Warhammer. Oh, in between Fighting Fantasy RPG and actual AD&D, age 12 at boarding school I/we played a lot of a simple d6-based system I & a guy called Ross Martin made up, which turned out to be nearly identical to Warhammer. Strong and enormous scenarios within three continents, diverse maps and stages!! I'd want to keep a FF rpg very simple. There was Advanced Fighting Fantasy too, but in looking back I think that missed the point of the Fighting Fantasy brand. This contains an introductory dungeon crawl which readers of Fighting Fantasy - The Introductory Role Playing Game will recognise. Classic Fantasy is a return to the dawn of roleplaying, when you would gather with your friends in your parent's basement, bashing down doors, slaying hordes of orcs and goblins, and This is an homage to the classic dungeon delve and the following games were inspirational in its design, Advanced Dungeons & Dragons 1st edition, The Fantasy Trip, Tunnels & Trolls, and of course, RuneQuest 1st and 2nd edition. Well, maybe that's an overstatement, but I have yet to meet somebody who has been introduced to an RPG without getting a rules lecture ahead of time who has not enjoyed himself.
