That's because they make us play.

Yeah but that's because we're forced to be involved at gun point.

Hey, I went to the Kenzer webpage and there is one thing I want to clarify about Hackmaster.

Is it closer to AD&D 2nd edition or d20? I love KotDT, but I don't think I could go back to 2nd Ed.

It's closest to 1e. It's not really anything like d20. It takes the best of 1e and 2e (there were some good bits), and adds in some new stuff. The PHB, GMG, and Hacklopedias are great reads. But, in the end, it's most like 1e, especially 1e after Unearthed Arcana - in a good way.

Hackmaster is a wonderful system. If the devil is in the details, then Hackmaster is an entire pantheon of formless gibbering evil critters.

That said, I am planning to convert all the old 1e modules like the GDQ and Temple of Elemental Evil into a megacampaign set for Hackmaster.

It should be wrong. Heheh.
