HarnMaster 3.01 Learning Experience

I've very recently (within the last week) started getting interested in learning the HârnMaster system—particularly for combat, but also for character creation (and to a lesser degree, non-combat resolutions) as well.

The rub, however, is that I don't have any idea if I'm doing things right or understanding them properly.

I'm looking for someone experienced in the system who would be willing to, at a bare minimum, hold my hand through the character generation process (both the roll-everything process and what I dimly understand to be the "point buy" character creation option), referee a couple of sample combats, and walk me through their aftermath (injury/treatment/infection/etc.).

How a potential GM wanted to go about this is up for discussion / collaboration.  I'm perfectly happy with just walking through character creation, tackling a few completely artificial one-off or arena-style scenarios, and discussing / examining the aftermath, all from a purely metagaming / mechanical / crunchy point of view.  However, if someone wanted to try to tackle this more in the form of a short one-shot adventure, I would not be averse to something like that either.  Like I said, up for discussion.

So, anyone out there willing to take up this banner?

Approximately one-year-overdue bump.  Willing to monkey about with this in either HMG or HM3, if there are any Hârn-system-knowledgeable "referees" out there to assist me.

Wow, I haven't looked at a HárnMaster book in years... I still play some Rolemaster, but, not quite the same thing.

If you find someone, I think I'd be interested too.

HarnMaster 3.01 Learning Experience

We only played it once last century ...  Not even sure which edition I have ...  As I recall, a lot of the difficulty came from the terminology used in character gen.

I would be willing to give it a try as a player.  As I have access to PDFs of quite a few of the books.  For those not familiar with Harn, here is an overview.
