yes, using Lite and exercising your option to adopt (or reject) whetever rules you like or dislike is a good way to go. Some of my players now are advocating this approach. It seems we kinda burned out last game since we got deluged with sourcebooks and rules in the 4e.

Paul, I'm trying to imagine what he looks like. But yes, it keeps coming back to me as a joke. :) neat one though....

I shy away from even the concept of "Roolz Lite" like a vampire avoids garlic. Pile on the crunch I say.

As the years go by, I prefer to simplify the systems I use. I've even considered moving everything to Fudge.

There's a lot of options, and it's easy to bog a game down at the expense of fun and playability if you're not careful.

My suggestion is to use the Lite rules for melee combat and only use more advanced rules for missile fire (I think 4e Lite includes rules for target range/speed/size, whereas 3e Lite doesn't (this is why I like the Lite rules from WWII)
