This is exactly how I started out GM'ing this world. I started with the promised land (included in the ruleset / core rulebook) since it basically takes you into the country from the old country. You only need to know the basic back-story and the basic rules to run the starting adventure... everything else is pretty much explained. I've been GM'ing this ruleset now for... maybe 3 years? It's still amazing fun and the grim dark setting (and punishing monsters) puts the players on their toes every time they venture out into Davokar

Obviously WIP but still good work. Not a mechanical question but you might still be able to answer it nonetheless: With sessions of 3-4 hours and a brand new group, do you have any guesses on how long The Promised Land will approximately take to run? I'm thinking of running something weekend GMT evening and would like to plan accordingly (assuming I find players of couse).

Thanks, yes, that helps. Assuming some rule difficulties, it sounds like 2-3 sessions.

Soon! Some questions if possible:
Is the ruleset encrypted (i.e in the vault)?
What fonts are used and are they in the public domain?
I am currently doing data upload in Realm Works and want to add some fonts to mimic the feeling of the bookThe past is a rudder to guide us, not an anchor to hold us back.

Apologies if it is inappropriate to post here but this seems like the most likely thread for anyone interested in Symbaroum to frequent:

Hi Stephan! That is completely appropriate! I'm really glad to hear about this, if you want any help with the preparations or want me to walk you through the ruleset in beforehand just let me know and we'll set up a time! Also if there's any particular features you're missing or that you want fixed before you guys please don't hesitate to ask!
Thanks,
Simon

Thanks, I might take you up on that offer. So far I'm pleasantly surprised how compact the core rules are but I guess the nearer game time approaches, the more unprepared I'll feel - the same as every other game I guess. And running the game itself will be another completely different matter.

I know the feeling, personally I have moved to the Seth Skorkowsky described method. I was already 75% of the way there before watching this video, but some steps (like getting a friend and 1v1'ing elements of the system first) had me wondering why I had never thought of doing it.
