The Hive is (realy) Dead! Long Live the Hive Mind!

[Horacio]

I started by 198x, with the Red Box (D&D basic). I've tried every flavor of D&D, but my longest lasting games have been with Ad&D 2e and D&D 3e.

D&D 3/3.5 is my favorite (even with the big nostalgia factor of AD&D 2e).
But for now I really like everything I've read about 4e... besides the Windows only D&D Insider

I'm right there with you.

I guess we will feel the same thing again in a few years, with the 5e announcement

Anyways, I feel a big case of nostalgia, mate, a biiiig one

Vicious no good massive body of water!

Welcome back. A good meal perchance?

Thanks!

A very good meal, in a small "creperie" (a restaurant of crèpes), with my daughter and my dad, who is spending several weeks here.

What other fantasy based rpg settings have you tried and liked/disliked?

i've played both "TSR" versions of marvel superheros, i liked the origanal best, but the saga system w/ the cards actually worked suprisingly well. I have to admit Mutants and masterminds is the best though.

i like d20 modern quite a bit, i played several fun games with that system. Spycraft 1st ed was ok, but i like d20 modern better. haven't checked out spycraft 2e.

i also played and couple campaigns w/ the dragonlance saga system, not really my cup of tea, but the spell system was fun.

tried but never succeed in getting to play vampire or shadowrun, but came close to getting a exalted game going.

i have the books and really like warhammer fantasy, but agian no luck getting a game going.

i've also played a bunch of star wars d20 and one of the best games i've ever been in was a wheel of time d20 game that got started right here on the boards.

Crepes are good! Nice to spend time with the family, eh?

I am not much of a strategy sort ... never was.

Am much more of the "role-player" type of gamer....

I have heard good things about M&M admittedly. I used to play the Marvel game a LOT - in fact, my screen name is based on my fave character from that system. I also enjoyed played the 1e of the old V&V rules. Ever tried them?

Hmm crepes sound good right now I'm getting potatoes au gratin with sloppy joes. Also I have the hiccups which make my son giggle wildly every time he hears them.

I don't think 4e will be worse in "non tactical role-playing" than 3e.

I've played 3e without minis, I've played with minis, different feeling (almost different game) but wonderful both of them
