    Did your group not read the rules at all?

    I'll be running a playtest or two with the RPPR group this month using the test scenario I wrote. I'll ask everyone to have 2 characters ready to play.

        OK so that didn't go so well. Not because the rules are massively broken, just because the majority of my gaming group is lazy and forgetful. I still plan on running some stuff but it will probably be just two guys running multiple characters. I should at the very least have grammatical edits back by the deadline.

        I know that at least one of them would have simply because he always likes to be prepared. The others are just really apathetic and self-interested.
