[QUOTE="misfit, post: 1001597, member: 13075"] Hi, I'm a newbie 3e DND DM who's recruited a new group consisting of : *a couple old friends who i've role-played with in the past. They have played DND but are not 'active' players. They only play when I ask them. They don't really care about playing by the rules. They prefer to be entertained. *a cousin and his friend who have played in the past (but I've never gamed with them). I have no idea about their style and they've been very ambiguous about what they expect. They are new to 3e but have played 1e and 2e. *a couple of people I don't know very well, but I role-play with them in another group. They seem to know the rules and use them as long as it doen't slow things down. They have been playing many years. If things go well for the first session then this may turn into a regular group. Any ideas how to approach a first session. I want to run an adventure that can be finished in an evening of play but other than that I'm at a loss as to where to start or what may be the best type of adventure for these folks. Any suggestions as to how to approach this would be appreciated. [/QUOTE]
