Akrasia said:While I agree that simply playing 1e AD&D would appear to be the most effective way of achieving the 'feel' of 1e (it seems almost truistic to say so), presumably 1e was not included in the options by the OP for some reason. I'm not sure why -- and leave that to the OP to clarify. (Perhaps it is because 1e is OOP, whereas C&C and Hackmaster are in print?)
Yes, but it's still easier and cheaper to get copies of 1E than either of those two games. I live in a reasonably large city and am fairly familiar with the game stores in the area, and I can only think of two that would have C&C or Hackmaster and a few that might. However, I can come up with half a dozen used book stores (as well as one of the game store mentioned above) that have all the 1E stuff you would ever need. Plus, many people already know the rules and have stuff for 1E.
