[QUOTE="Richards, post: 8393935, member: 508"] Let's see, my oldest younger brother and I were introduced to AD&D 1E by my two cousins in the late 1970s. That Christmas, my two younger brothers and I each received one of the three core books for Christmas and we started up an ongoing game with the three of us, my little sister, and a few friends from the neighborhood. A year or so later, we also started up a Gamma World (1E) campaign that brought my mom into the fold as well. Then college, and marriage, and two kids, and the Air Force - that was a gaming dry spell for a bit. But once my boys were 10 and 8 I introduced them first to HeroQuest (for the basics) and then AD&D 2E and we gamed through 3E and 3.5 until the oldest son went off to college, followed shortly by my younger son. Now I game with my younger son (after his college stint was completed), my teenage nephew (who lives with us), and another family of three. (They have an older son who used to game with us as well, but he moved away to college and has started up his own campaign with his friends.) So I'm going to go with "yes." (The only one in my family with no interest at all in gaming with us is my wife, but since I owe my marriage to "Doctor Who" she's got an entirely separate "geek link" with me.) Johnathan [/QUOTE]
