[QUOTE="Raven Crowking, post: 5034885, member: 18280"] Of all the systems I've ever played, 1e is the one that has required the [i][b]least[/b][/i][b][/b] amount of houseruling. My houserules documents have grown with the editions: 1e: 1 page 2e: 60+ pages 3e: 300+ pages, eventually to become RCFG, which runs over 260 pages right now, and is perhaps only half ready. For the player's book. With two other books (at a minimum), it will be the most massive houserule project I have ever done. 4e: Thankfully, I got off at the last stop. ;) If I wanted to play 1e again, I would just play it as it is, with OSRIC for guidance about fiddly rules. I would even include supplimentary material from The Dragon and UA as it pertained to the campaign world. After all, I had no problem doing so when 1e Was King, and I doubt it would be any more difficult now. [i][b]Maybe[/b][/i][b][/b] I would add the Shake it Off rule from RCFG to make the characters a little more hardy. Other than that, I can't think of anything. Oh, and I would [B][I]play[/I][/B] AD&D 1e in a heartbeat. Thief, magic-user, whatever. They are all fun to play. IMHO. YMMV. RC EDIT: If I am not careful, all this talk about 1e will go to my head, and I'll never finish RCFG.....because I'll stop seeing the need to! :lol: EDIT to the EDIT: Oh yes, and add the flumph as a PC race. :D [/QUOTE]
