DragonRaid ultra-condensed as an intro

I'm regularly running DragonRaid, and has been for some years. But it
is hard to recruit other leaders. So I thought maybe I could simplify
one situation from a DragonRaid adventure to two pages. This could be
used for marketing to a wider audience. And those two pages would be
playable, in a simple way. The only extra thing needed would be a d6 or
two - straight, ordinary dice.

The wider audience I'm thinking of, is still youth leaders, not the
players themselves. I would like to get this into the resource booklet
for the next Wide Awake event here in Norway. (All 11-year-olds in the
congregation are invited to spend the night
before the first Sunday of Advent, in church. 529 churches participated
last year.)

There is of course a danger that this
would be low on teaching content, or low on playability, or both. Has
anyone else tried something similar? I see this as different from the Fudge and d20 initiatives from a few years back, as I don't try to repackage the game itself.

How do you in AFC regard
such an initiative, being the rights owners and keepers of the rule
scrolls? This would be something playable DragonRaid-ish, widely
circulated. And it would circumvent the need for a DragonRaid game box.
But I don't see it as competition for the full package.
