So warmachine got me started on this idea.

Could you condense the rules for 40k in to 6 pages? (without being 1pt font or something stupid)

The main rules are longer than they need to be, could they be clear AND concise?

Note: I DO Know that all the rules to warmachine are more than the 6 page PDF, I have the book but the 6 page PDF can get most people through a game, especially if they are playing with someone else who knows the rules.

Yep. GW produces 2 page reference sheets for most of their games that contain all the basics. Just add 4 pages to cover USR, etc. and you'd be good.

I think it would be difficult, IF possible.

It could be done in 10, though, for sure.

Heck! I'd love to see that!

I don't think it would be that hard. Writing the RAW as the RAW, keeping the same rules but more like a technical manual.

Sounds very Dakka.

That's someone's cue to take up the challenge, btw

It might violate copy-right in some way.
