[QUOTE="MerricB, post: 5971827, member: 3586"] Err... none of them? One of the delightful things I've been able to do recently is run campaigns of AD&D, 4E and Pathfinder, and what I've discovered is that all of them can be fun, but they also irritate me in different ways. AD&D irritates me with the imbalance between fighter and wizard. 4E irritates me with the power structure and lack of "small" combats. And Pathfinder irritates me by being the least balanced and with the least interesting combats of the three. 4E set-piece combats are one of the real highlights of the edition for me, but it doesn't do well with smaller combats. AD&D does exploring really well, and I love the (generally) short combats with simultaneous resolution of player actions. And Pathfinder has a cavalcade of interesting options for characters. Each of these games is good at different things, but I still hope that the [i]next[/i] edition will give me the good bits of each game and provide a superior product. Cheers! [/QUOTE]
