Something akin to the collector's edition of the Warhammer RPG:
Obviously, BRP couldn't be this basic--you'd have to add some text--but why not just a simple, confident riff on the Chaosium dragon logo with "d100" or "BRP" underneath it? (By "dragon logo" I mean the image that appears in the upper-left corner of Chaosium's site. |
You are right. I would do it in this way too if I dont have an absolutely first class picture available. One basic colour (black, red or maybe dark blue) and a silver or gold imprint. (or maybe as non-color relief imprint) I would place in prominent font size the name BRP or d100 and a smaller chaosium logo on the front cover and not much else. Simple and iconic. Additional info could be printed on the backcover. This would also show the "basicness" of the rules inside.
