Would you play it?

That's nearly every low level dungeon crawler, so yeah, obviously.
With a half-decent system, it sounds fun for the occasional one-shot.

>Would you play it?
Only after many campaigns of playing as PCs who take similar NPC hirelings into the dungeon.
For this kind of subversion, you need extensive experience from which you can build a proper appreciation of the horrors these poor guys would deal with.

I was just thinking a casual beer and pretzels sort of thing would do.
So would the players have a hand in choosing their employer? Are each player serving a specific PC, or should they all be hired by the party collectively?

>each player is a group of wimpy hirelings
No I'm taking pills to stop thinking I am multiple people. This would defeat the purpose.
>>46761176
So basically a funnel game?
>>46761669
Maybe. Different employers give different benefits, but the better the stuff, the bigger the cut of the loot they take?

You realize that's the entirety of OSR "GENRE", right?
Jesus! what the fuck is wrong with /tg/ Lately?
>>46761366
I think the implication is that there are NPCs in the group who already have classes and levels?
