D&D General What version of D&D are you playing?

[schneeland]

I will start running Beyond the Wall again relatively soon. I'm not sure where exactly that would fit, but I put it into the B/X bucket for the time being. This also fits with Dolmenwood being next in line for D&D-ish games.

I read OP's question "what version 'or its equivalent'" as offshoots like ToV/A5E etc. Or, more likely, your post has gone entirely over my head

The variant/equivalent part eluded me, since there were no non-D&D poll choices. But that detail really waters down the poll, since the question becomes "what game are you playing, but really, what version of a D&D game are you playing?"

There should be a final choice: indie/small publisher D&D alternatives.

I don't see how it is an important distinction. The difference between playing B/X and OSE is almost entirely aesthetic.

2024 with some 2014 options.

I'm the inverse. 2014 with some 2024 option. My 2014 group just never really got around to / found a good point to / felt a strong need to update. We allow 2024 material in as it comes up, but we're still based on 2014.

I like the 2024 rules for the most part, but I'm a fan of half races and old school flavor.

It's your poll, but I don't think everything non-WotC should be a single choice. They're just not that important IMO. I would say either break out the D&D alternatives as separate choices, or just go with official D&D and be explicit that only those games apply to the poll/thread.

Been mixing things between 5e14 and 5e24 for a bit now. Working great.

Voted 1e+UA as that's closest to the homebrew 1e-adjacent system we use.
