    D&D Retro-clones

    I did see that, and I grabbed a number of the "rules supplements." To me, though, adventures/modules tend to be very hit-or-miss. Can anyone vouch for what's there?

    D&D Retro-clones

    I just started skimming FG&G. Now, as I stated before, short of AD&D video games, I really don't know the AD&D rules (just the basics introduced by the games, but not the dice-rolling the computer does in the background). Is it safe to assume that your FG&G is, for all intents and purposes, AD&D...

    D&D Retro-clones

    Thanks everyone for the suggestions. I downloaded BFRPG last night and skimmed through the main rulebook and the supplemental monster manual. Very interesting--I like the simplicity (especially the brevity of the character sheet). I may give this a try with my wife and daughter (she'll be five...

    D&D Retro-clones

    Huh, that's an interesting idea. Wouldn't you still run into the problem of 3.0 being mathematically built for characters to have +X weapons at level Y? I kind of want the earlier simplicity where even <i>finding</i> a magic item was a big deal. It wasn't "oh, another +2 sword...let's sell...

    D&D Retro-clones

    Aus, that's the answer I was looking for. I don't mind doing easy stuff like swapping ACs or whatever. OOC, is BFRPG more like AD&D 1e or AD&D 2e?

    D&D Retro-clones

    Is Basic Fantasy compatible with old D&D products? I don't plan on dropping tons of cash on this, but I would love to have the cross-compatibility (given the sheer number of books, monsters, modules, etc.).

    D&D Retro-clones

    For some reason, over the past week or so I've had a real itch to play "classic" D&D. By way of explanation, the bulk of my pre-3.X experience with the game has been via video games (ala Baldur's Gate and such). Therefore, I'm simply not as familiar with exactly which edition or products I...

    STILL No Character Builder Update?

    I canceled my DDI subscription. Vote with your wallet.

    RPGA Reward Ship Tiles

    [Essentials] What's left?

    Possibly, but I've hijacked this thread enough. It's probably best that any further discussion be taken elsewhere.

    [Essentials] What's left?

    I'm not sure if this is a serious comment or a "nudge nudge" one, so I'll interpret it as serious. Yes, I'm keenly aware of the purpose of ENWorld, thank you very much. I've only started coming to the realization that roleplaying no longer interests me like it used to in the past few weeks, so...

    No Character Builder Update

    At this point I'm wondering if they don't mean early October 2011. [/hyperbole]

    No Character Builder Update

    Early October now, according to WotC's vague assurances.

    [Essentials] What's left?

    My subscription is up in November (I paid for a full year). I won't be resubscribing. It's more than just this DDI nonsense; I think I've outgrown roleplaying. I just don't enjoy it (playing or DMing) like I used to. I suppose I should be grateful for rampant stupidity at WotC to help me break...

    [Essentials] What's left?

    See, I really don't think they will do anything. Do I think they care? I think that some of the individual people there do, but not WotC as a whole/entity. They can't even bother to respond to their own forums, and you think they'll respond to a bunch of random e-mails? Not likely.

    [Essentials] What's left?

    My complaining is hardly limited to online.

    [Essentials] What's left?

    Well, yeah, it stinks. I've been waiting for the DS updates to the CB before starting my DS campaign (new 4E players, and the CB will vastly simplify things). Why am I giving my money to WotC again?

    [Essentials] What's left?

    Wait, I knew that the DDI update was pushed until 9/22. Has it really been pushed again?

    Ah, okay. Thanks!
