Well, rules light certainly follows, given that St. Andre thought 74D&D too complex. Funny enough, I ordered the 7.0 Tin today, in reaction to this thread.

The King, baby, uh-huh-huh.

Both of you guys need to get out more......dreaming about ENW posters....wow.

You are incorrect. T&T was a direct reaction to the "complexity" of the '74 edition of D&D. Google around for Ken St. Andre and you'll find the history of T&T wherein he says so. Here is a snippet from the FLying Buffalo website. I'm still looking for the quote from Ken himself: Source...

I have the TSR published version of it. In an old dragon is some discussion from Fischer, I think concerning the differences between the published and original version they played. However, I don't think it could be considered an RPG is any case, as I think it has much less claim to the...

Can't speak to 2e and THAC0, but the attack matrix for fighters in the 1e DMG improved by 2 every two levels, and had this note below it: Personally, I use an attack matrix found in The Dragon which shows a 5% increment per level for fighters, and the appropriate changes for other classes. I...

Perhaps we could all mass ignore him?

Thanks for the link.

Best of luck to you.

If you aren't having fun, then you shouldn't play. That's the bottom line. On the upside, it's great you've developed a great group of friends. Would they enjoy boardgaming as much as you?

That's a nice choice.

Lankhmar. I'd probably not stay long, probably made to be an easy mark, and left for dead in some alley inside 45 minutes.

Dude! Don't hold back! Tell us how you really feel!
