I recently read A quick Primer for Old School Gaming and got interested (I really started playing D&D in 3.5 ed).
My son also plays D&D. My wife has said that she cannot figure out why D&D would be appealing. But she recently saw someone playing an AD&D game with some kids and though it looked interesting. From talking to her, the appeal was more of what was talked about in the Primer above. So I was thinking of getting some "Old School" experience before trying to run a game for them (and some others that I recruit). I was thinking of getting in an PbP game.
I was wondering a) where to look for some of these styles games and b) what should I learn: AD&D, OSRIC, Tunnels and Trolls, Swords and Wizardry. There seem to be a lot of choices. I am looking for something that others play so that I can find an online games and inhale some of this style.
thanks,
