OSR Primer Index Cards
(English, Spanish and Brazilian Portuguese versions available!) When running one-shots for OSR games or playing at conventions, new players may lack previous experience with the old-school renaissance style of game and you need a clear-and-fast way to prime them in just a few minutes (not enough time to read Principia Apocrypha or A Quick Primer for Old School Gaming!). So here it is. An index card primer for new OSR players. Print them on index cards (3''x5'') on both sides and you are ready to go! In case you don't have access to index cards, I included sheets of cards to print at home on standard paper. Print them, cut them, fold them in the middle, glue them in between and you are ready to go, too!
