[QUOTE="Olgar Shiverstone, post: 2415738, member: 5868"] After reading three pages, I think WizarDru nailed it. It's not about the rulesset, but how you apply it to your game. You can get "1st edition feel" with any rules set. We started our current 3.5 campaign with "Keep on the Borderlands", and I think it retained much of its original feel -- though I'll admit to the addition of a metaplot to provide explanation and linkage to the later campaign. I'd like to think -- though my players would have to confirm -- that we've done a reasonable job of achieving 1st edition feel with our campaign. Though I'll admit, as the characters are now in the early teen levels, that rules mechanics have become a bit more obvious over time -- a function of both the level of complexity at higher levels, and my own inability to prepare for every contingency and still get all the flavor details down that I'd like. YMMV. Play whatever you'd like, Isay, and have fun doing so. But don't blame "feel" on the rules/edition -- take a look in the mirror, first. [/QUOTE]
