[QUOTE="scourger, post: 6316883, member: 12328"] I am not too excited about [B]5e[/B]. I got off the D&D wagon after 3.5 - never got into 4e (although the latest Gamma World was quite good) or Pathfinder. I tried to get my group interested in the 1st 5e playtest dungeon, the remake of Keep on the Borderlands, but they weren't into it. I'll get 5e Basic to check it out, but I doubt we will play it. I am excited about my planned all-drow [B]3.5[/B] game. I recently got the [I]Menzoberranzan[/I] book which is full of good ideas. I plan to use elements from a Conan game I have wanted to run for a while with the story from [I]Slaine The Horned God[/I] as the framework. I hope to mine all my old modules for a series of good dungeon crawls, even parts from [I]Against the Slave Lords[/I] that I just bought. That Jeff Dee illustration of the 6 slave lords is begging for a conversion of those foes. I have a bag full of [I]D&D minis[/I] to use for friends & foes, and I plan to use a form of the 0-level character death funnel from [I]Dungeon Crawl Classics[/I] to start it. I hope the PCs become naughty drow demigods. I would also love to play or run some [B]Savage Worlds[/B] (SW). I even thought about running the all-drow game as a SW conversion, but my players are too mired in D&D (1 especially who won't play anything else). SW is so much easier to prep & run than d20, but I have some good shortcuts planned so it should not be too much processor load on my mind. I am going to use the card-based initiative from SW in that game, so it will have some elements. Maybe a type of SW benny or 4e action point system, too. [/QUOTE]
