[QUOTE="ingeloak, post: 6574052, member: 61649"] not lazy in so many words, but the recent editions of D&D *cough* 4th *cough* everything was spelled out for you. X monsters are Y a challenge rating, and drop Z parcels of treasure. in 1st and 2nd, none of that was there. the game was largely left in the hands of the DM, and ours was a baptism by fire and steel. my earliest adventure ideas were on a piece of graph paper with a pencil, not full color maps and plastic minis. over 25 years of gaming, and i only now have a decent miniature collection (thanks, Reaper!).
