[QUOTE="Obryn, post: 4564994, member: 11821"] I love gaming, and I love many kinds of gaming. As a player, I get different enjoyment out of playing different games, and as a DM I get a lot of enjoyment out of running different styles of games. I think this is all great advice for someone looking to run an old-school game, and this is exactly what I'm doing with my monthly 1e game. 1e's modules make these sorts of games very, very easy so long as the DM and players are both game. OTOH, I love running more plot-based games, too, like the SWSE campaign I'm running. I never fudge in my 4e game, but at the same time, the adventure structure is much more linear than anything in my 1e game. I guess what I'm saying is that there are tons of different ways to have fun with D&D. I'll always object when someone says there's only one right way to play D&D, or that one play-style is objectively superior to another. That way lies ridiculous nerd-fights, and it's just a waste of time. With that said, this is an excellent primer on one of the many ways to have fun playing D&D. :) good post. -O [/QUOTE]
