Hello all:
Thinking of setting up a game to involve my 8yo and 10yo boys. The 10 yo has Aspergers while the 8yo has a one heck of a imagination. Thats why I want to do it as a RPG, just a little something for both of them. I have copies of the 1st and 2nd edition Mechwarrior manuals. Should I purchase the latest or would one of these suffice? I haven't played an honest to goodness RPG for 30+ years. I want something I can come home from a trip, and connect with the boys on a day where the elements don't allow us to be outside. I think a little bit of story telling along with a table top battle would be just the right mix.
Any ideas or warnings would be welcome.
I tried this a couple or 3 years ago with my oldest, but he just wasn't ready for it. Hopefully it goes better this time.
