My life is brilliant
My love is pure
I saw a sourcebook
Of that I'm sure
It was sitting on a bookshelf
It was with some other books
And I didn't lose much money on it
'Cause it was going secondhand
You're overpowered and problematic
You're overpowered and problematic
You're overpowered and problematic, it's true
I saw your cover on an old bookcase
And I knew just what to do
'Cause I only had a copy of you on PDF
Yes it caught my eye
As I walked on by
Anyone could see from my face that I was
Fucking overcome with the desire to roll some d20s
And I don't think that I will play it again
But I took it with me and put it in my study
You're overpowered and problematic
You're overpowered and problematic
You're overpowered and problematic, it's true
I saw your cover on an old bookcase
And I knew just what to do
'Cause I only had a copy of you on PDF
You're overpowered and problematic
You're overpowered and problematic
You're overpowered and problematic, it's true
Gary Gygax must be up there with a smile on his face
When he thought up your unnecessarily complicated rules
But it's time to face the truth
I will never play with you
That's bloody cold of you

Whisper it, but I actually kind of like James Blunt.

Why not another one?:
ReplyDelete"Cicadas rolling
dice for THAC0, search table,
darn, forgot the page..."
Ok, I'll stop now.
I haven't looked at that book for ages. What parts of the rules were unnecessarily complicated? The honor system? The non-weapon proficiency system? Something else?

It's Gary Gygax! ;)

DeleteI'm writing here since you seem to be a lot more active here than kickstarter. When will the Yoon Suin 2e edition will ship? It's been more than a month since the last update.
ReplyDeleteApologies - you will I hope have seen the latest update!
DeleteThere once was a kensi named Dou'atik
ReplyDeleteWhose religion was dogmatic
So katanas he dual wield
And all the villagers he killed
Which made him problematic
You should be Poet Laureate.
DeleteThe book was clearly never playtested. Some stuff is just broken, but it can be fixed.
ReplyDeleteI have a bit of an urge to play it now that I have the physical book, but no time, sadly.
