Funny Cartoons (RQ is the Best) and Puppet Sex aside, BRP is very easy to learn, in essence.
- Skills are expressed as percentages and rolled on D100.
- Characteristics represent how physically able you are and show your physical presence.
- Damage is done to your body, or to parts of your body, and is protected against by wearing armour, putting something between you and the thing damaging you or moving out of the way of the thing damaging you.
- You get better by thinmking about what you have recently done and attempting to roll an increase on D100.
And that's about it, really.
In essence, very simple.
So why does it need a 1000 page rulebook?
