[QUOTE="JonnyP71, post: 7371731, member: 6788862"] We still do... I simplify surprise and initiative to B/X rules when playing 1E. I've just packed my stuff away after DMing a 5 hour session of 1E for a group of 20-30 year olds. We've been playing 1E for over a year now, and they often revert to their old 5E mindset of 'FIGHT' - 1E always kicks them in the teeth for that. Tonight we had a lengthy session in which they were trying to sneak into a well guarded Fort*. They were in full on 1E mode 'Avoid a fight, run away, hide, think, plan'. There was a tangible sense of fear as they were confronted by a ghostly apparition. THey were nervous about a layer of old oil caked with dust coating a guardroom floor. And they gave a patch of thick mud smelling of manure a very wide berth. It was great. (*The adventure is A2 - Secret of the Slavers Stockade) [/QUOTE]
