[QUOTE="buddhafrog, post: 5512174, member: 86605"] Curious - what did you love about 4e that got killed by Essentials? [COLOR="Red"][B]<- Moderator note: probably don't want to derail the discussion with that here, better to search for old threads on that topic (there are plenty). Plane Sailing, ENworld admin[/B][/COLOR] ------- Regarding the teaching: an Enworld member emailed me recently from South America. He's doing is master's thesis in using D&D in ESL education. I was real happy to hear that and hope it catches on. I'll tell you what - it sure beats planning for regular class lesson! I also want to add that I had a 25 year absence from D&D and then immediately started DM'ing 4e. While I'm a teacher and good communicator/story-teller, I don't claim to be a great DM. But I'm improving a lot. I was able to do this, honestly, b/c of the help I received here through Enworld. I've said in many of my posts how thankful I am for this community - they really taught me how to DM and continually give me the answers/advice that I need. "Your" help has led to dozens (and growing) of Korean kids loving D&D. I find that cool. So yeah, thanks. [/QUOTE]
