[QUOTE="Tervin, post: 4411726, member: 66491"] Me and my friends moved into 2E on the day it was published, having consumed all the previews we could find. At the time we were running an annual kind of prestigious AD&D tournament, where we took pride in including the very latest official rules. As the tournament took place in late September we really had to learn quickly - we even made a little extra booklet for our DMs, so that they would know the main differences that mattered in our adventures. Personally I loved 2E back then, it felt like quite an improvement to the old rules. We stuck with all the complete books for a while but lost interest in the end - I did my last writing for that tournament in 1992 and its last year was 1997 I think. In the early 90s I fell in love with the Storyteller games instead, and ran Vampire 1E and 2E for a number of years - more or less till D&D 3E won me back from the dark side. Looking back at 2E I think the best parts of it has little to do with the crunch and everything to do with the fluff. Dark Sun, Ravenloft and Planescape offered the best campaign worlds that I think D&D has had yet. [/QUOTE]
