[QUOTE="cavalier973, post: 5577392, member: 91595"] I've not played a PbP game before, and the only people I've ever DM'd for were my kids, but if anyone is interested, I'd be willing to DM the "Essentials" published adventures (from the Red Box, the DM Kit, and the Monster Vault; starts at level 1 and goes to level 4 or 5). I'd have some rather restrictive rules, though: >Essentials characters from the [I]Heroes of the Fallen Lands[/I] or [I]Heroes of the Forgotten Kingdoms[/I] only; I'm guessing that the streamlined rules would make it easier for me as a level 1 DM. Besides, the only non-Essentials materials I have are the core rule books. >Ability scores would be limited to the array 16, 14, 13, 12, 11, 10 before racial bonuses (player assigns the scores to abilities as he sees fit, of course) >No Evil or Chaotic Evil Characters. >I don't have MS Excel, so I would use MS Works Spreadsheet to make maps, etc. I think Excel can load these, though. >Only four characters, at least to begin with. I don't care what races or classes, as long as they are from the Essentials players' books. (i.e. four tiefling hexblades would be fine, as long as they are at least unaligned, good, or lawful good). If these rules are agreeable to anyone, let me know. If someone more experienced at this sort of thing is willing to give it a whirl as DM, then more power to them, and can I join that game?
