It's totally DnD, but it's completely different to anything else I've ever seen. Check it out. It's a real pity that it probably won't ever be published.

I think it's a bit problematic because it seems like you're stuck painting the action with broad brush strokes, though: it'd be harder to turn an encounter into a single scene rather than a set of linked scenes, each describing a particular action. I think this limits how much you can really do in a narrativist game.

I suppose you could apply it to election campaigns just the same, though.

If it were to come out, I just might do so as well.
