Bought this off the strength of The Vanilla Game's writing, and your article about making The Isle.
Suggestion - can bookmark the PDF? Very handy while playing on VTT to be able to skip around at will.
Cheers!
Published a "first impressions" blog post, from reading TVG and The Isle and planning how to run a "one shot" of it:
