3.0 or 3.5 at GenCon???

[der_kluge]

Ok, I'm torn. I've got my nice, shiny [heavy] 3.5 books. And I also have my 3.0 books which are a little worn, but I'm quite familiar with them.

I intend to do a lot of pick-up game playing at GenCon. So, the question is, do I take my 3.0 books to GenCon, on the assumption that most pick-up games will be played in 3.0, or do I take my 3.5 books on the assumption that most pick-up games will be attempted to be ran in 3.5, or that they are at least mostly compatible with 3.0, and I could use 3.5 books in a 3.0 game?

Carrying around both sets does NOT sound like fun to me.

All of the pickup games I'm running will be 3.5, not that it should change your mind. I like many of the changes and I'm psyched to get things rolling with the new system.

RPGA Classic events are 3.5. RPGA Living events are 3e.

PirateCat, how where they able to convert all those classics modules to 3.5 so quickly??

Not that it matters, I'm not playing any RPGA stuff.

Unless you plan on DMing at GenCon, just bring both of your PHB's. That way, you can be prepared to play either edition.

I bring lots of books and then take the ones I need to the con and leave the others in my room.

I would guess that most people will be using 3.0, since GenCon is only a week after 3.5's official release. Enjoy it while you can - I hear that trying to use 3.0 at GenCon '04 will be punishable by purple nurple.

What is Legend of the Green Regent considered? It's debuting at Gencon, it's RPGA and it's 3.5
