Wandering Adventure Party

Add a few drops of sesame oil, sesame seeds are also nice

Add a tiny splash of mirin, sake, or rice vinegar

Use stock for the liquid, or add miso paste, or mushroom powder

Rehydrate a pinch of wakame while you cook to add at the end

Experiment with condiments: soy sauce, teriyaki, hoisin, chili oils, etc.

Anything that’s going to add healthy ingredients is probably going to bump you up over 10 minutes. If you’re willing to do that, saute some stuff in the pan before you cook the noodles. I’ve done chicken, pork, mushrooms, bok choy, leeks. It’s a bit more effort for a big improvement.

Thank you for sparing me the rant I was inhaling to deliver.

The system is so good. You wanna run a political intrigue campaign? Great! Not only are there dozens of skills to navigate the nuances of that style, but there are multiple supplemental guides if you want to get real nitty gritty. You wanna run a hyper-tactical combat heavy campaign? Great! The combat can be extremely rich, with an entire book dedicated to Martial Arts.

You can run any setting you can think of: sci-fi, fantasy, modern, historical, cinematic, realistic. The mechanics are there. But the base system is so simple and modular, you can run it off an index card. I almost think of it less as an RPG than an RPG engine. You really can adapt it to any kind of game concept.

These were a game changer for me

I always thought the brain was more like a dump truck.
