[QUOTE="Panamon Creel, post: 3968759, member: 58610"] Just curious. My own kids are far too little yet, and I don't know any junior high or high school kids (except those that I stalk on the internet . . . JUST KIDDING) :lol: My guess would be no. I'm guessing they play WoW/computer stuff and maybe Warhammer mini games. But I don't see some kid wandering into a hobby store or book store and randomly picking up the PH/DMG/MM and then learning to DM and then teaching his friends, like many of us did back in the day. I'm guessing if kids have played tabletop RPGs, a parent or relative showed them how. Interesting to think about because with 4E it seems WOTC wants to start marketing more to the kids and less to old farts like myself. (I could be wrong, but they implied as much in parts of the commentary of R&C; plus, just look at the cover of the new PH, the scantily clad female fighter just cries out to 12 yr. boys; plus tieflings and dragonborn will be marketed to the younger folk).
