There are a lot of great posters here. I'm pretty much a lurker because everytime I post something on a board I tend to get banned for trolling or flaming( I'm the best example I know of how someone with a moderately high intelligence and an extremely low wisdom and a relatively low charisma should be role-played). Kudos to the Op. You really got me thinking about thid topic. I have been playing D&D since 1979, started with the Moldvay set and moved on to AD&D,2e, RC,3.0, 3.5 AND NOW 4e. I am kit bashing all of them right now to try and get a cohesive whole. The foundation I am using is RC with the stat charts from the Immortals boxed set(i.e. 1-100). I tend to do a lot of multi-genere adventures. So I really need the big stat chart. I am using the classes from 1e, including Unearthed Arcana and Oriental Adventures. I personally like the barbarian,thief-acrobat and cavalier classes. I am using the RC level progressions up to the Immortal level ranges. From 2e, all the fluff from the many different campagin worlds. I use all of them the Realms,Dark Sun,etc. I am using the NWPS and kits from 2e, as well. I also use High Level rules for 2e with the 10th level spells. I agree with another poster on the awesomeness of the 2e black Mostrous Manual. I use it for Dragons and Giants, I like the added HD for these creatures. From 3e I use the encumbrance rules, especially for how they reflect the carrying capacity of large creatures. This might seem a bit anal on my part but in 1e my own personal strength based on my military press is 18(05) and in 3e its like 14 or 15. I like the ranges in 3e better.</p></blockquote><p></p>
