About the book:
What would it look like if Tom Moldvay created a Basic version of 5e in the same vein as he did B/X for with AD&D? While 5e does have an official Basic version, they designed it with all of the rules complexity but none of the character options.
Bugbears and Borderlands flips the script on that. The rules have been streamlined to the very basic core, while still offering a lot of character customization options at character generation, WHILE also being very easy to learn and play.
Hundreds of pages can be daunting for newer or younger players. It’s a reason why Moldvay’s B/X back in the day brought in so many new gamers, because it was an easy read and easy to play. B&B emulates this philosophy while being largely compatible with core 5e.
