[QUOTE="Musing Mage, post: 8443037, member: 7025552"] As may be evident, I am a staunch supporter of 1e, but this sudden swell of attacks against 1e means I may have to choose a new edition to support. :unsure: It's a tough one, because at this point all of the editions I objectively dislike are gone, and we're left with all the ones I like! BECMI was my first, and got me into the game as an impressionable youth, and the Rules Cyclopedia is a fantastic compilation of such. 2nd Ed was my go-to for 30 years! But 5e has grown on me, and I have come to... do I really have to say it...? Fine... I've to come actually...<coughcough> like it. <coughcough> Should 1e go down, do I abandon the old-school ship and cast my lot with 5e? Or do I jump to 2e for all the good times I had... or support my BECMI for pure sentiment!
