What is a playtest?
Playtests are rules that are currently being tested to see if they should be added to the core set of NERO rules.
For text of the playtests listed below, please see http://www.nerolarp.com/playtests/PlaytestTOC.htm
Our philosophy
We want to:
- adhere to the rules of the game as published in the most recently published version of the NERO rulebook
- adopt the national playtests that are required
- very carefully select optional national playtests to use and only adopt new national playtests at certain points during the year
We do not want to:
- stop enforcing rules in the rulebook or nationally required playtests
- create or use local variants or modifications to playtests
