Quickstart Guide
This is free! How can you go wrong? You can't. I love this start out pack and even purchased hard copies of it for my playgroup. It is informative but doesn't overwhelm the players just getting their start into Glorantha. THAT COMES LATER! haha! Seriously, it is a great product and has the basis of what you need to get started to create new characters and begin to run some adventures. Like I said, I picked one up for each person in my playgroup because the hardcopy is around $10 each.

Utterly outstanding presentation and mechanics, best of both worlds, with a REALLY interesting depiction of ancient age and a beautiful system that avoids attrition in battles[deadly strikes that may kill you in two rounds if you are not careful] and
I love it
