[QUOTE="Kharon, post: 6103010, member: 6706175"] Jacob it was great to see this thread and the fact that others out there are as frustrated as our gaming group has become. Our group came together in the early 1990's and has wandered back and forth between gaming systems for 20 years now. I started playing at the age of 10 with a copy of the third edition of Chainmail. Things have moved a lot since then and I too have complete sets of all the books from basic thru 3.5 and Pathfinder as well as numerous other gaming systems but our group always comes back to our core campaign that I have been running since 1992. The characters may have changed but the world is the same. One I drew up by hand origionally (i am a cartographer by trade) and later imported into Campaign Cartographer. There is a discussion right now in the group if we should shift the game into pathfinder but to date that is unresolved. 4th edition fell flat on its face with our group and we never went past picking up the base book set. As for the fact that the 3.5 books now comprise 2 full shelves on a bookcase and the supplements an additional 2 shelves well I agree it would be nice if we could have the depth and experience without the need for all the mechanics but in all of our explorations of other games which litter my shelves we have yet to find one that we really enjoy. The closest was probably Savage worlds but even that died after about 6 months. Well here is to keeping trying new games!!! Huzzah!!! Kharon [/QUOTE]
