The seven hex in hex was it. Thanks!

I could certainly use smallish hexes with larger hexes superimposed, the large hexes three small hexes across.

I'm not complaining. I was just waiting for the updating to be finished before I re-read the rules to see what's new.

Sneakily? :D  Itch has sent email each time about the updates. I've been wondering when this batch of changes would be complete. 

Ah, OK. That sort of description would be quite useful. As long as there's discussion as to what they are, when to assign them, how broad they should be in use, and so forth, I don't think a list is necessary.

Aspects sort of disappear in the text. "Hey, you get points to assign to your Aspects" and then no further discussion. No tools descriptions, no fields of expertise.... Or am I just missing something?

Oy, yes! The question is what it would look like. 

I've a notion to begin producing modular subsystems for folks to drop into their games and would love to see other designers get involved in doing the same. I'm trying to get discussion forums set up on my blog site to help with it. I can see multiple takes on the same basic subsytems riffing off of each other in a discussion & design space, with formating templates available for all to use and version data that shows what design lineage the work is part of.  I don't know if this is what you're thinking of, though I think it fits in with this.

Read it. You're talking about improv acting and such, which isn't necessary to roleplaying. No player has to ever speak as a character. They can speak in first person, if they wish, though third person works just as well. They can take an actor stance, sure, and they can take an author stance just as well. The role playing is the decision making. The delivery doesn't change that. 

If you really enjoy the thespian activities as part of your play, carry on! Share your joy in that! I'll recommend not couching it as roleplaying, though, as it's an adjunct to the roleplaying. (I can say that in the forty years I've been roleplaying, I've rarely done any first person acting.)

Roleplaying is making decisions for characters. That doesn't take much to explain. So what is it you're trying to explain that takes a zine to do so? 

Typo: should be "Gridded Paper"

As I understand it, FMC is a strict OD&D clone. This is how she house rules it in her campaigns.

Interesting. I'm using 3-mile hexes, so each flower would break that down to 1 mile per hex. I'll assume the visible landmarks are tall enough to allow seeing the others at more than a three-mile distance; I'll likely use hours of travel between them.

The reupload got the full file up, it looks like.

My download had four pages. Where's the rest of the book?
