What version of D&D is your favourite to play (expanded poll)

[Desdichado]

I'd have to say my favourite version is my own house-rules 3.0/Arcana Unearthed cross.

I never take a game straight.

Yeah, I'm in a relatively "straight" 3.5 game right now--if you count allowing just about any splatbook published by Wizards themselves straight--but I doubt I'd ever run that. Frankly, if it were up to me, I'd take d20 Modern, d20 Past and Unearthed Arcana and cobble together something unique. At least that's where I'm leaning at the moment.

3.5e was my choice, but "whatever my friends are playing" is closer to the truth.

Cheers, -- N

Nifft,

Those of us that have friends that game, probably. Not all of us have that luxury any more...

My campaigns are all 3.5e with most Wizards (3.5e) supplements allowed. And a "Ask the DM" policy on using material from those supplements. I don't ban much, I just reserve the right to.

3e and 3.5e have some significant changes between them; most of which I forget about until I look at a 3e book and realise how bad some of the classes were (I'm looking at you, bard).

Really, you could use a 3e book with 3.5e without much problem (just as you could between 1e and 2e), but, for me, the major difference between 3.5e supplements and 3e supplements is that the designers had a much better handle on 3.5e design and didn't make as many mistakes - although they still make them from time to time.

Cheers!

There are plenty of games here in Georgia if you ever make it this far South.


I prefer OD&D. But I play in other games.

Davey,

Maybe when I get a car. My current one or rather late one is now a pretzel.

heat it up. add a little salt. maybe some mustard.

pretzels and beer are the staples of good gaming.

Davey,

a) I have no idea where they took it and b) I prefer my pretzels hard.

a hard pretzel is easy to find. they are a dime a dozen. i guess they aren't like gamer men. IYKWIMAITYD

Merric, you should have done this poll with multiple options, IMO.
