Can you play with just this first volume? Or does one need to wait for all three?

Overall, I think it's a nice game, with the potential for being great, but I think you should focus on its layout/organization, and specially in the explanation of the rules, clarity can certainly improve.

For example, I have many questions about the use of magic/cards: for instance, you say that only two classes of characters can use any magic, but then you explain that characters of all classes can use their special power card. Another thing is that I don't really see the point of using powers as a non-magical class since powers only affect cards, and cards are useless for non-magical users. Also, you say a character of level two can use a level two power two times in the same run, but how is that possible exactly since a run only has one card of each? (Sorry if you actually covered all this)

Also, another small suggestion is that maybe you should start the book with the actual mechanics (char gen, combat, navigation, magic), and only then start with the chapters about content generation, like, most of the game i'm gonna look at the playing rules, it would make sense that they appeared at the beginning of the book. In general, they should be more separated I think, if not two entirely different books, but that's just my opinion. I was very thrilled at first when I read about the use of cards and then you jumped straight into land generation.

You should probably not use "d12" to mean "roll 2 six-sided dice and add them together", as commonly "d12" means "roll a 12-sided die". "2d6" is the commonly accepted notation for adding a pair of six-sided dice.

For rolling multiple dice where each die is used for one column of a table, spell out the number of dice - e.g. write "seven d6s" (or just "seven dice", since you're only using the six-sided variety) instead of "7d6".

Using non-standard notation like you have may generate considerable confusion.

Also, you may want to be aware that when adding two six-sided dice together (what you wrongly call a "d12"), 7s and results close to 7 are much more frequent than results close to the ends (2 and 12). You do not seem to be aware of this in the tables where you - do you really want Palaces to be six times more common than Inns?

In fact, I would strongly consider taking each of these tables, removing one result from each column, and renumbering them 1-10 to be determined by drawing a card.
