That's very, VERY cool! Downloading now, and about to shout it from the rooftops too.
Great job, can't wait to print it out and have a read.
Congratulations are in order for all involved this is a huge help. I will be running S&W this week and this will come in handy. Thank you for supporting the hobby and the OSR community.
That's great news! PDF alrady downloaded and waiting to be read when I get back from work. I'm trying to move my group from 3.5e to S&W or LL (not decided yet) but this will surely come handy. Keep the good work.
Congrats! Looks awesome, can't wait to get my print copies!
Came out fantastic!
Great work!
Great work!
Thank you all. Your support and encouragement is really appreciated. :)
Neat.
The PC sheet is really great. I love it.
I really like how the sample adventure is written. A good job indeed.
This looks really sweet. :D
Lovely work -- and thank you again for the encouragement :3
Great work—but putting a save-or-die giant spider in Room #2 of the sample dungeon is mighty cruel of you, Mike!
Great stuff! espacially the tips and the Know-how!!!
Hi Michael. Happy Thank a Free RPG Publisher Day! I just wanted to let you know that your Quickstart was a great introduction to refereeing Swords and Wizardry. It really helped me to "get it." Thanks for making it available!
@Staples - the best thanks is hearing that you had an awesome game using the Quick Start and that it helped you as a DM. You're most welcome! :)
