[QUOTE="Cirex, post: 4304444, member: 63721"] I was still kinda new at DMing. I was DMing a Lord of the Rings (simple RoleMaster) campaign and I keep hearing and reading about D&D and how it was THE table-RPG, but I checked many stores, including book stores that sold used books, but I just couldn't find any D&D book. So one classmate heared I was interested and gave me his AD&D handbook. Some other guy gave me his AD&D dungeon master guide, and I read both cover to cover and I discovered that I had learned close to nothing doing that. I had nobody to aid me with the rules, so I mixed several RPG rules with those ones I had, and slowly discovering new stuff. Since AD&D was very "light" on rules, especially for skills, I had to make up many things on the run, including all kind of monsters (I had nothing similar to a monster guide or even a NPC guide) but that kind of things forged me as a Dungeon Master. Baldur's Gate helped a bit too, especially to be able to explain my friends the THAC0. [/QUOTE]
