[QUOTE="Dausuul, post: 4673552, member: 58197"] 2E is for the settings. I would not myself be inclined to run or play it; if I were going to go for retro gaming with quirky Gygaxian charm, I'd rather play 1E, in which those elements are less diluted and I get to ogle the bare-breasted succubi. However, if I were going to pick a prefab setting to game in, there is no doubt in my mind that I would choose one of the settings from 2E - even if we ended up using 4E for the rules. Dark Sun is magnificent, or was before the adventures and the novels trashed it. I've never played Birthright but heard many good things about it. Real-world religious issues aside, I found Al-Qadim very appealing. Spelljammer and Planescape weren't my cup of tea, but they were still very impressive in terms of vision and depth. Council of Wyrms? Uh... yeah, that didn't happen. You don't need to see my identification. [/QUOTE]
