[QUOTE="w_earle_wheeler, post: 3619751, member: 35955"] I think that is partially the case in my scenario. While I have been playing 3.5, I started with 1e and the Molvay basic set, then I moved to 2e and then to 2e revised. So, while I have come most recently from 3.5, that's not my only background. However, as you noted, going from 3.5 to C&C can be frustrating for people. I found that the lack of specifics and certain rules just ended up causing more work for me as the DM, and the players didn't really like the open-ended nature of it (two of them are also old schoolers). It was nice to use my old Monster Manual and Fiend Folio and Dungeon Master's Guide, but the content wasn't as compatible with C&C as I had hoped it would be. I'll probably be sticking with OSRIC products for my "old school" stuff. I guess we're more of a Necromancer games catchphrase kinda group. You know, third editon rules with first edition feel :D [/QUOTE]
