[QUOTE="Lanefan, post: 3573184, member: 29398"] Using the OP's order, for us: - 5 players usual, often each playing more than 1 PC at a time giving a party size of 8-12 - wealth by level table??? we don't use that DMG! :) - available magic other than the real basics is by random roll unless you're in a *huge* place e.g. Waterdeep - books and materials available are by DM decree - house rules have largely replaced RAW, at least for our 1e games - settings vary; some homebrew, some not - campaigns are at least several years long and slow-advancing, and collapse at the 10th-11th level range - PC death is inevitable; sooner or later, you *will* die. The question is whether your party will bother to bring you back... - we almost always cover the "classic" roles, sometimes several times each, in our parties - character and story-driven play mostly, with occasional bursts of player-driven mayhem - about 2/3 male players, but this varies over time - dungeon crawls are relatively common - we only let in people that either the DM knows from out of game, or at least one other player knows from out of game and can vouch for - sessions are weekly with occasional gaps, about 4-5 hours each including gossip etc. - play at the DM's residence whenever possible, as that's where all the gear is.
