Welcome to EN World, skeldesblade. Just keep your eye open in the Talking the Talk forum for new games or existing games that may be recruiting new members. It may take a little while, but be patient and you will find a 3.5 D&D game soon enough. They are still fairly common around here!

From one newbie to another

Welcome to Enworld,

My tip would be to look through vevry carefully for what you want before you chose a campaign

If you want I'm in a party that needs some people before we begin, look for Age of Abjuration, it's high magic but 3.5 rules.

I hope you will be welcomed as warmly as I have

Thats because up until the time Leif said he wanted to catch and pass me, I only posted relevant posts to the games I was in. There wasn't much idle chatter from me. But since everyone else is doing it, I decided what the hell?

And actually, I have put something like 300 or 400 posts up on Leif over the last several months when our "post war" originally began. He had gotten to within 2500 or me at one point, and now that is back to almost 2900.

You'd be amazed at how many people post a couple of times and then disappear.

I see it in recruiting threads a lot. People post once saying they are interested, and then never post again. Kinda strange, but around here, what isn't?

What i find very crazy is LEW slowly dying and everyone headed to the L4W spot

I'm giving 4e a chance but if I don't think I like DragonballZ like powers i have to use over and over And the characters don't have a way to grow

Trying a pacifist cleric in 4e but every power is an attack power or close to one

I haven't played 4E yet. Keep thinking about it, but don't really want to spend the cash for the books just to have them sit on a shelf.

4th is the NEW stuff. So, people will flock to it, because it's new, and it's what Wizards is going to support and update. I actually haven't gotten a chance to play anything on LEW, because no one needs a lvl 1 fighter for an adventure, lol.

As for 4E being like DBZ... I'd say DBZ characters had ALOT more variety in their attacks than a 4th Edition character did.

Goku had Kaioken, Kamehameha, Spirit bomb, Super Saiyan 1-4, Dragon Fist plus flight, becoming stronger each time they lose a fight and survive(Saiyans come back stronger after being hurt)... etc...

While 4th has 4 fairly static powers. I could be wrong, but I see DBZ characters having more variety than 4th edition characters in a fight.

I also see 4th edition characters as 'easier' to optimize. ANy Wisdom based character could key almost everything important off of that stat. Starting HP, Melee attack, power use... etc...

But I barely played, so my analysis is very... gut reaction.
