[QUOTE="mudpyr8, post: 1793000, member: 16162"] If you want 1E feel, play Hackmaster. It's all right there. Everything you liked about 1E, and fixes for the stuff you didn't. I enjoy HM combat way more than d20. It's simpler, yet more interesting to me. Don't get me wrong, I like d20, but for classic D&D feel Hackmaster has got it hands down. Personally, I like more cinematic control of my combats which is why I usually play HERO system. But, what was a regular d20 game transformed into a Hackmaster game and my gaming schedule is much better for it. 1st level HM Wizards aren't all that weak. The spell system is much kinder, yet still feels like 1E. Try it out. You might be surprised. It's also quite a hoot to do all the old modules with new flair, like "little keep on the borderlands" or "quest for the unknown". Something to consider. d20 is what it is, and does an excellent job. Change it, and you are creating a different game. There are games out there that do what you are looking for... d20 just might not be it. [/QUOTE]
