A cut down version of the d20 ruleset comes with the download. If you play D&D you could get by with it. As FG2 just came out there are not yet many other rulesets converted over to the new format yet. Depending on what game you play this may or may not be important.

A ruleset normally just has the character sheet and some data or tables out of a source book. Most source book data is not really needed to actually play if you already know the game.

Are you having a problem rolling 4d6? Just click and hold the left mouse button on the d6 and while still holding the d6 on cursor right click three more times to add 3 more d6's. Drag all these dice down to the leather strip and drop them. You should see some dice appear. Drag and drop the dice from the strip to the large box above. You can adjust the stat roller to use various number of dice - I think it default to 3d6? You do have let go of the dice in the large box for the rolls to "stick".

I put up a game if you want to try it on my server. Address is " meek thug epic xorn " and pass is " acmer ". I'm not all the time available but I'll look occasionally if someone has questions. (I'm not very good at answering probably...)
