I realised I never explained what MOSAIC strict is. If you want details here is the link
https://blog.trilemma.com/2021/02/nothing-at-bottom-mosaic-strict-rpg.html?m=1But I will summarise for quick reference.
Mosaic is a set of criteria which can be present in a game text's design. This tells nothing of the game itself (no genre or style of play and absolutely nothing about quality) but it tells how the rules are being written.
MOSAIC is an acronym:
- Modular. It's meant to be used with other RPG and it's not an entire, complete RPG.
- Optional. It's not necessary to play an RPG.
- Short. It's no more than 1500 words.
- Attested. It describes itself as Mosaic Strict.
- Indipendent. It does not refer to external mechanics and rules used in any other RPG.
- Coreless. Assume nothing else is in use beyond free-form play.
If all the criteria apply, it is considered Mosaic Strict.
Rereading this, I am even more sure I will not be able to make a proper Mosaic Strict rule set :/
Still, I'll try. Gotta go write part 1 of the combat system.
See you later 👁
