So, after a thought provoking bar conversation and an inspiring thread on The Forge, I have begun the open development of the ICEHOUSE ROLE-PLAYING GAME: http://icehousegames.org/wiki/?title=RPG SO far, it is merely the skeleton of a generic role-playing system and, frankly, it's not all that "chunky" yet. But perhaps it does not need to be? Give it a look, make some suggestions for stack abilities (on the Talk page, please!), and give it a whirl at your next table-top gaming night. Thanks for your attention; David
