Looking for the Free Microlite20/7x/8x/2020 Rules Downloads?

There are well over 100 free downloads of rules (and more) for Microlite20, Microlite2020, Microlite7x, Microlite 81, and their many variants in the Game Download Library area below. These files can be downloaded without creating a membership on this site.

 

 

 

Update (19 Jun 23):

As I mentioned many weeks ago, maintaining the seldom used Wordpress side of this site became too much of a bother, especially as parts of Wordpress are constantly updating and some those updates break things -- like access to this forum. I'm finally had time to remove it. The forum should stop disappearing from view now.

As many of you know, my wife has had MS for about 20 years now. It has gotten to the stage where helping her takes a lot more of my time that it used to. This means visits to this board have become few and far between. I'm looking for a couple of members willing to help moderate this board. Note that if your idea of good moderation is anything similar the way boards like RPG.net are moderated, do not bother volunteering. Good moderation isn't about forcing your opinions, ideological positions, or biases on members via your power to gag and ban, it is about being helpful to all members (even those you don't like/disagree with), cleaning up after spammers, and enforcing the rules with the lightest hand possible and only doing so when the rules are actually broken. If you are interested in any message board moderation position on any board because of the supposed "power" it will give you, you are (IMHO) the wrong person for the job. If you are interested, PM me. It may taken quite a while to reply, unfortunately.

Re: New? Introduce Yourself Here!

Hi. I'm Ivan. I'm currently playing Pathfinder. I started with AD&D 2e back in the 90's. I studied programming. Am into videogame programming specifically. And I have a huge interest in game design in general. I found M20 recently and I'm interested in studying it and perhaps developing my own g...

Re: What is your favorite Microlite20-based game?

That's what I really love about Microlite20, it's so easy to modify that it simply begs GMs to modify it to better fit their campaign and/or their group's style of play. Here here! That is one of my favorite things about it! While I was explaining the basic system to my girlfriend she asked if ther...

Re: M20 Research Questions

The first time I read those words I was only slightly confused in that I wasn't sure if it referred to 3e or 3.5e. I'll say this though, while pouring through the pdfs I usually first look for that part because it usually has a general description of the particular suppliment or variant I'm looking ...

Re: SotU - Spell Thoughts?

Cool. I'm eventually going to use something similar for my game. My best suggestion is to look at similar spells of different levels with similar effects for inspiration. Pathfinder has a ton of spells that improve as you level up so those might be useful too. Oh! Pathfinder 2e's whole spell system ...

Supplement B25 missing?

Was just wondering about it since I didn't see it in the downloads.
Was it not labelled or just never released/made.

Re: Microlite2020?

Just my two cents, but I would go ahead and rename Hit Points and Body points.
Maybe...
Hit Points into Stamina Points
and Body Points into Health Points.

Otherwise, it looks pretty good so far.

Re: What does "Rules Light" Mean to you?

For me, I'd heave to say "easy to learn, simple to run, and flexible to interpret."
Basically an embodiment of the idea that sometimes less is more.

Re: What is your favorite Microlite20-based game?

I just started getting into the M20 system recently.
Haven't even played yet really.
Can't even say I have any favorites yet.

But I do find Eric Bullis' Resident Evil and M20 Cthulhu variants very intriguing.
