The cat was no Jonesy!

I think it's a shame that WotC never released legal PDFs of the 3.0 core manuals.

And that's actually awesome. But it's not very likely that I will be teaching anyone to play or DM in the near future. So my personal use of the starter set will be limited. Which was my point :)

Undoubtedly, the new Starter Set has the potential to bring real innovation, so it's an exciting product. OTOH, I'll personally get far more use from the FR books.

Indeed. Novels are novels, but my campaigns certainly aren't shackled to them.

I'm actually still sore that, even though I lucked out on my saving throw and killed Bargle right in my first adventure, he still was around in later products!

That's fair, I wasn't trying to sell you the game :)

In the introduction, they specifically call out a strong focus on tactical, detailed combat, as a difference between Draw Steel and Daggerheart.

It's the Atlas of Faerun, a D&D Beyond product which will be bundled with either of the two new books.

I appreciated that joke, but it could not save what was, IMHO, a truly terrible movie, not even involuntarily fun.

So, a troll-necromancer walks by, they manage to raise this thread before being banned, the movie is - unfortunately - on Prime Video, I lose 2d4 Int points for its sheer idiocy. Good job, troll!

And what a fantastic move for him.

Both Moldvay and Mentzer have rules for monsters' reactions. There is no stipulation of monsters always attacking, except in specific cases such as zombies.

Yes, but I was simply joking. After all, I'm likely to use an "Italianized" pronunciation for most of those imaginary toponyms.

Having ran B2 several times as an adult, I obviously disagree. BTW, it's great that people who disagree with the good opinion about B2 do so in such a respectful manner,

What is the source for this? I'm not asking because I doubt the veracity, but because I'd like to erase that source from the face of Oerth, no, I mean Yarth erm... Earth.

I think that, back in the day, this "multiverse" approach was very important because players moved often from one game to the other and brought their PCs with them (witness all the discussion about this topic in the DMG). Personally, that's not something that ever happened to me, so it was never...

Personally, I've always loved B2. I played it back then and I've ran it a lot of times. So versatile, there's a ton of stuff that you can do with it. And, BTW, the lack of a story-line is a definite plus for me.

I my own games, I don't really have this whole multi-verse thing. What I have though, is that - with very few exceptions - each campaign that I run is a new and separate "instance" of the "world". So, my last Greyhawk campaign for 5e was separated from my previous AD&D one and whatever happened...

... and it's already out of stock again! :eek: EDIT: Apologies, that is not true.
