Olettaen nyt siis että tässä puhutaan Old School Renaissance -ilmiöstä [...] niin aika hyviksi tiedonlähteiksi aiheesta olen itse huomannut tämän saitin:

Sieltä löytyy mm. linkki tämmöseen quick primeriin, jonka voi hakea ilmaiseksi lulusta:

Kiitos linkistä! Matthew J. Finchin A Quick Primer for Old School Gaming näkyy laulavan samaa laulua:

• Rulings, not rules: "Rules are a resource for the referee, not for the players. Players use observation and description as their tools and resources" (s. 2)
• Player skill, not character abilities: "Original D&D and Swords & Wizardry are games of skill in a few areas where modern games just rely on the character sheet." (s. 5)
• Heroic, not super-hero: "the fantasy of taking a guy without tremendous powers – a guy much like yourself but somewhat stronger, or with slight magic powers – and becoming a king or a feared sorcerer over time." (s. 6)
• Forget "game balance": "it’s not a 'game setting' which somehow always produces challenges of just the right difficulty for the party’s level of experience." (s. 6)
