[QUOTE="Matthan, post: 6694914, member: 20005"] Here's what I would do in your situation for whatever it's worth. I would stop playing RPGs with this gentleman. I would have a gracious conversation where I took the blame for any issues (assuming you want to continue the friendship), and say that you care to much about their friendship to keep playing D&D with them when you know that it will cause conflict due to your different playstyles. Offer to hang out with them and play board games, watch movies, etc... But not D&D. Tell them at AL events, you don't think it is wise to play at the same table and that you will also be stepping back from any session zero events to keep things peaceful. Offer a specific time for a first board game night to show your sincere. Don't try to accuse others or seek an apology. If they offer one fine, but don't change the plan. D&D is not a healthy activity for your friendship with this group. Next, I would try and recruit a new group from AL or online. If you willing to play online, I know you can find a group. There are probably people in this thread that would invite you to play (I run a WotBS game in 5E online and I can check with my group if they're open to a new player). Reddit has an active LFG. Enworld even has one. As for Gencon, I would reach out to friends on Enworld to find people to go/room with and game with. [/QUOTE]
