You've just picked up the rulebook, or the Bundle of Holding? You take one look and your mind boggles, your sanity snaps and you think "maybe I'll run Bunnies and Burrows instead!" Should you give up? NO!!! Ars Magica is much easier to learn than many rpgs, and in fact no harder than the most popular game on its 5th edition as long as you take it sensibly. So here is some simple advice to start your first campaign. :)
