Monster Slayers: Heroes of Hesiod

I found out about this via Penny Arcade - it is a rules-lite version of D&D for kids ages 6 and up who aren't ready for the full rules-set (and who is, really?)

I'm really glad that they did this - it is similar in a lot of ways to what I've been trying to do in simplifying D&D while letting it remain D&D. This is simpler than I'd like to play personally, but looks like it could really work (though I think 6 years old might be a little optimistic - then again, I don't really understand kids).

Here is the link to the PDF, available for download from Wizards of the Coast:

The artwork alone makes it worthwhile. Who knew a bullette could be so cute?
