[QUOTE="athos, post: 5275240, member: 32605"] "Eeek, 4th edition" [I]tries to avoid getting any on himself[/I] If you are of the WoW generation, you would probably like 4e better. My last gaming group in Tulsa, went heavily to WoW during the 3.5 days, but when 4th edition came out they came flocking back to D&D and just LOVE it. I played it at first, since I was an RPGA guy and they dropped 3.5 and went to 4th edition, but for me, it was too much like a board game. Nothing against strategy and tactical games, it just wasn't for me. Now, I have too much invested in 3.5 to leave it. You are lucky you have a choice since you are new, you can pick one or the other and invest your time and money in it. (Probably have to invest twice when 4.5 comes out :cool: ) Can't believe I am saying this, but as a relative newcomer to the game, you are probably best going 4th edition, since it is supported. If you have OpenRPG, you can go to the Blackstar server which I think is a hot bed of 4th edition gaming where you could probably sit in on and play some 4th edition and get a feel for it. I would play it online though and learn the "feel" of the game first before GMing it for you group. [/QUOTE]
