[QUOTE="Verys Arkon, post: 6381854, member: 60891"] My weekly group consists of players new and old. We did the Playtest when it was active and then went to check out Star Wars Edge of the Empire while WotC worked on it. Started with the LMoP and we just got to Wave Echo Cave after 8 Sessions. We rebuilt PCs once the PH came out. Having a ton of fun. Some great scenes and RP. One player, who is a self-confessed char-oper and munchkin, has started building characters with the background chapter first! PCs feel stressed - combat is dangerous. We've had a lot of knock downs but no fatalities yet. Keeps excitement and engagement high. Running TotM style for now, but plan on reintroducing some minis for complex set-piece battles. Wave Echo looks dangerous though. A lot of the encounters come out as Deadly if you look at the XP. The guy who mostly played 2nd edition loves the "feel" of 5e, and I agree. I was a huge proponent of 4e when it came out (if anyone remembers the pre-release rules compendium), and I do think that edition fixed a lot of the issues that I had with 3e. But 5e has the soul of DnD, while taking the lessons learned from the 4e experiment. Two Iron-Golem thumbs up. Verys [/QUOTE]
