[QUOTE="Aaron L, post: 5743377, member: 926"] Welcome to gaming, my friend!! You're getting into the greatest hobby there is! :D Now, since you've never played anything before and you want an idea of how a game session might look, look on YouTube for D&D Game Session. I just checked myself and there are lots on there; go watch a few and you'll get an idea of how things will go. But remember: no two group's games go exactly the same way, everyone's gaming group is different, and they change constantly, so even your own gaming group will change from month to month, especially since you're just starting out and learning the ropes, so to speak. As others have recommended, try getting the Beginner's Box and there will be a lot of good advice for you there. The first several game sessions will be just learning the rules, both you and the players... don't try to push it. Don't rush yourselves. Let it come naturally, and above everything concentrate on having fun, don't push yourselves to learn the game at the expense of having fun. If you're having fun you'll get the rules down much, much faster. If realize that you messed up on a rule, don't dwell on it, just remember for the next time. You're all in for a great, great time. :D [/QUOTE]
