[QUOTE="molonel, post: 3441770, member: 10412"] Smilies are ambiguous. Then you have a game that you have to learn, and then recruit people to play. Maybe you'll find a good group. Maybe you won't. I know plenty of folks who have problems finding a gaming group. With WoW, you have 8,000,000 people you can game with 24/7 anywhere you have a computer and an internet connection. I prefer pen and paper RPGs. I prefer face to face games. I prefer pizza boxes and empty Mt. Dew bottles rolling around on the table, and dice. And Castles & Crusades, along with the Saga edition of the Star Wars game and the Conan OGL revised edition, are on my list of books to buy sometime this year. But in many ways, WoW is an easier community to plug into. If you're any good, you will have people actively recruiting for their guilds and setting up raids weekly, if not nightly. You could do what you suggested. You could spend $50 + S&H for the books and a module. But it's not really "simpler" to put together a gaming group and write your own adventures. It's my preferred cup of tea, but I can easily understand why other people choose differently. [/QUOTE]
