Bumping thread and also asking for advice.

So I've been thinking about how ACKs is conceptually organized, and I've been thinking of emulating something similar but on a bit smaller of a scale and more focused towards adventuring.
So for instance, the new table goes;
>Missions (Doing dirty work for people for pay)
>Wilderness (exploring wild places, hexcrawls)
>Dungeons (Dangerous, but high treasures)
>Politics (You're still fighters and wizards, but dealing with larger scale political threats or challenges; like raiding a palace of an enemy king or working as elite forces in an army or something)
>Expeditions (Go off to unexplored lands off the continent, here there be monsters)
I've never liked the assumptions that when the PCs get super high level they would become Kings, why not just become even more crazy powerful adventurers?

Hey, what are some good books on the "thought" of old school games, besides the "Quick Primer for Old School Gaming?"
I need to get the wheels turning and get back in the groove of old school RPGs (which I haven't played in a decade and a half) so I can start designing a game that I want to run for some friends starting in a month or so.

It helped me understand the nature of OSR and also got me interested in the hobby, since my only exposure prior was Pathfinder/3.5 games and since I really hate all the pointless numbers the primer was a breath of fresh air.
BUT like all things it is merely an introduction material. Once it has been absorbed you must move on to more advanced lessons.
Sebastian Ortiz
Yeah, I like the book. I'm asking for those "more advanced lessons." Any recommended reading? Like I said, I was literally thirteen and playing a whole party while my granddad DMed last time I played anything older than 3.5.
Easton Wilson
Hack and Slash is a pretty good blog for this kind of thing. DnD with porn stars too.
Levi Parker
So why is your favorite OSR game your favorite?
So, I'm not trying to start any fights so please don't attack any other system, just looking to read into something new.
Luke Bailey
I love gonzo shit like this. I love random tables too. Anything to share?
