[QUOTE="Thurbane, post: 3716017, member: 43273"] I'm already regretting going from 2E to 3.5 My group went on hiatus not long before 3E came out due to personal and family commitments, and reformed about 2 years ago. Of our newly formed group of 5, 3 had only ever played OD&D, 1E and 2E; 1 had played 2E and 3E; and one had never played any incarnation of D&D. Our initial plan was to go with 2E as the majority of the group had played it, but the guy who hadn't played at all before made a case that we should go with the current (3.5) edition, so he could be on an "even footing" with the rest of us. It sounded like a good idea, so that's what we went with. Now, after having invested significant $$$ and even more significant amounts of time in learning 3.5, we're faced with the prospect of doing it all over again. I think I speak for all of us that while we might show some passing interest in 4E and glance over the SRD (if any), we will be sticking with 3.5 for the forseeable future. I'm playing on buying up as much 3rd party 3.5 product as possible, and going trawling online for free OGL material. I just picked up Bard's Gate, Dead Man's Chest and Excalibur on the weekend, and I'm probably off to buy Tome of Artifacts this weekend. [/QUOTE]
