Mouse Guard (MG) is built on the same basic, well-tested mechanics as those used in Burning Wheel and Burning Empires, but is a much more refined and streamlined system. Some would call it a "lite" version of Burning Wheel (BW) but I would take exception to that term since it suggests that MG is somehow a cheaper or dumber version of BW which it is not. Instead MG trims away the unnecessary parts of BW and hones other mechanics to much more tightly capture the feel and style of the MG comics. Whereas BW is meant to be a workman's fantasy RPG which the group uses to "burn up" their setting, MG is instead designed to do one particular setting really well.

In a word, the book is simply gorgeous. The cover art features a wraparound of what seems to be all of the mice from the comic arrayed in their signature equipment. The full color art throughout is from the comic (or looks like it) and is extremely well done. The two-column layout is easy to read and carefully designed to highlight information. It’s the kind of book your friends will ask you about and eagerly flip through. One very nice thing about Pathfinder is that many of the rules and content are published under an open license and available for free in a wiki format. This makes it very easy and inexpensive to graduate into the full Pathfinder RPG once you exhaust the beginner box. D&D is a game of epic high fantasy where players take on the roles of mighty heroes as the crawl through dungeons, save the world and, yes, even slay dragons.

Once the mission has been assigned, the GM's Turn begins. Essentially, this is structured much like any other traditional RPG where the GM defines scenes and obstacles to challenge the patrol. Challenges typically come in the form of weather, nature (as in the wilderness), animals, or other mice. Here is where the meat of the roleplaying and active conflicts take place. The GM simply springboards off of the group's successes and especially failures, creating twists and developments in the story and helping push the mice to their limits. Before you can get started with some actual role-playing you need to choose a game to enjoy. There are a lot of great games out there, but we suggest that you take a couple things into consideration:

As a total novice to the world of Mouse Guard, I feel very much up to speed on the setting. I’m sure an established fan will find the game and its presentation even richer. Critical reception was strong, with the Mouse Guard Roleplaying Game winning numerous industry awards. It won the 2008 Origins Award for best roleplaying game [4] and numerous Indie RPG awards, [5] [6] [7] as well as being silver winner for three ENnies [8] and shortlisted for the 2009 Diana Jones Award. [9] I really love the mechanics because they are simple but very flexible. They also create play sessions that match the pacing, feel, and style of the comic book which inspired the game. That's really cool. In addition, the way characters are defined also help to create very clear, evocative characters whose past, present, and future (in terms of goals) are laid out during character creation. Part of this process includes defining three core pieces of every character: Here's a list of Mice Names that I put together to help run my own games of Mouse Guard. Names are inspired by the excellent and free resource, the Story Games Names Project. You have a character made and a group to play with, what now? While the answer to this question does vary from game to game, we can cover the basic structure that makes up a role-playing game. The Basic Structure
