Hi! In the next few weeks I'll be seeing some of my RPG-playing friends that I don't have a chance to see too often, and I've been thinking about playing a one-shot adventure.
I wouldn't mind playing it with no system at all, or with a quick made homebrew one, but I believe they would prefer to play with a published system.
The problem is: most systems take quite a bit of time by themselves - character creations, die rollings, etcetera; and/or aren't really meant for one-shot adventures.
I remember that I've once read one particular book directed at quick plays like those, but I can't for the love of me remember the name of it.
So, if anyone can suggest me some good systems that are quick to setup and quick to play, I'd be glad. Extra glad if they aren't setting-specific. I'm currently thinking about using the Nemesis (http://www.nemesis-system.com/index.php) System.
Thanks in davance!
