RULINGS NOT RULES
 With the Disputer, Defense, Judge, and occasional Jury all lined up, no debate is too difficult, no argument too trivial, no time like the present to present as much precedent as possible and pray you can get away with it. Much of OSR lives and dies by the principle: Rulings Not Rules. Well, within this booklet you shall find techniques with which you can canonize these rulings, and never have an argument again.
