[QUOTE="Turgenev, post: 7609548, member: 6733"] I had to vote for 1e. I first started playing D&D back with BECMI but moved to 1st edition AD&D rather quickly. I didn't mind 2e but my love was for 1e (even if I various 2e stuff in my games). I stopped playing D&D back in the late 80s when Chaosium's Call of Cthulhu became my group's to-go game. 3e brought me back to D&D and I rather liked it for awhile. As a DM, I lost interest in it (and 3.5) because of the amount of work I had to do to design NPCs, monsters, etc. I ended up going back to my old school D&D roots instead. That campaign was a BECMI/1e AD&D hybrid. I checked 4e out when it was released but wasn't interested and almost passed on it. I wasn't sure about 5e at first but once I started reading it in depth, I found I rather enjoyed it. So 1e, BECMI, and 5e are in my top three for D&D (in which order would depend on my mood at the time). 2e gets a honorary mention because of the sheer amount of material I can pillage for a 1e game. Cheers, Tim [/QUOTE]
