[QUOTE="Lanefan, post: 4898450, member: 29398"] 1e all the way, mostly because by the time all the other editions had been released we'd long since taken 1e and built the game we wanted out of it. In fact, when 2e came out our standing joke at the time was that TSR had made a valiant attempt to catch up to us... :) Now, each new edition merely gives us a few more ideas to pillage. 3e gave us the Sorcerer, generating a complete redesign in how my magic-using types function. 4e gave us...well, we're not sure what it's given us yet; give it time... I own the core books for all 4 editions. I've never played 2e as written, nor 4e, but I did manage a 7-year tour of duty in a 3e campaign (became 3.5 right at the end) and I can't see myself doing that again...too mechanical for my liking. I've only DMed our 1e variant, ignoring a 3-session aberration where via the actions of my character I took the helm of the 3e game I was in (she had just died, but a wild magic surge on her death put the party in a dreamworld; the "adventure" was her dying dream).
