    When Did You Start Playing D+D?

    No such luck Gary....but that's probably because I wasn't born until 1974. ;) If you happen to have any extra copies of that laying around, I'd be happy to playtest the game for you! :p

    D&D 4E GenCon - 4e News.

    After watching the announcements regarding the Star Wars D20 Saga RPG, if that game is indeed a preview of some of the things we might see in a D&D 4E...color me interested. I'm at least more optimistic today that I was yesterday that D&D 4E might actually be a nice improvement, but still...

    B2 Keep on the Borderlands ...and my life was changed forever.

    Midnight the movie

    Looked kind of cheesy to me.

    No 4th Edition

    Most of the time, that's exactly how I feel.

    Yes to 4th edition

    Somehow I doubt that will happen. I think the new feats and prestige classes tend to sell books to players looking to tweak their characters. If 4th Edition is compatible with 3.5 - and/or improves and expands the game in a groundbreaking way, I am all for it. If not, I think my gaming...

    Mongoose's Runequest, Anyone have it?

    I picked it up day before yesterday, and am really impressed with it. In my opinion, the layout and art are great for a black and white book, and the rules were easy to understand on the first read through. Some people have some issues with the statistics involved in the Opposed Roll mechanic...

    [Old Timers] Opinions on the Dungeon Crawl Classics modules and 'old school vibe'.

    LOL Diaglo - You have always been, and will continue to be, a pillar of OD&D goodness. ;)

    [Old Timers] Opinions on the Dungeon Crawl Classics modules and 'old school vibe'.

    One thing I forgot to mention in my original post was also that the difference in game mechanics between the older edition and the new tend to lend themselves to a different style of play. Now that I have spend over 20+ years gaming, I tend to really appreciate some of the rules included in D&D...

    [Old Timers] Opinions on the Dungeon Crawl Classics modules and 'old school vibe'.

    Hi folks, I've been playing D&D (Basic/AD&D/2E/3E) in one form or another since about 1985, and own a lot of original AD&D material and adventures. I downloaded the White Plume Mountain revision off of Wizard's website, and it got me thinking about the old modules I had - with Jeff Dee, Erol...

    TSR Q&A with Gary Gygax

    That's somewhat bad news Gary - I know it would have been a lot easier on you had the two of you been able to work on material together.

    D&D 4E Will 4E be announced?

    True enough. I guess the gyst of what I am saying is that if I had my way, 4th Edition would still be compatible with current material...just repackaged, clarified, expanded, and cleaned up. Nothing says that a new edition HAS to drastically alter the system or rules to be considered more than...

    [Return to Brookmere] - Idylls of the Rat King

    How many of you remember this D&D Endless Quest book ? It was actually my introduction to Dungeons & Dragons, and what I always think of when I thin: "Old School", and the feeling I would like to capture with my games. Anyway, I have a copy of the original book somewhere, and was thinking...

    D&D 4E Will 4E be announced?

    I would just love to see 4th Edition as a cleaned up, and possibly 'repackaged' 3.5 - with new covers, all of the eratta included, broken rules fixed, etc. 100% compatible with the current 3.5 line of products.

    Rules Never Prevent RPing? (But Minis Seem To Do So?)

    Great points jgbrowning. I agree with everything you said in your post.

    "Roleplayed" - My new Short Film! Weeeee!

    Chad, I thought it was funny. Thanks for sharing. I'll pass that around to my gaming group. I think a couple of them will find it funny as well.
