[QUOTE="pming, post: 7756511, member: 45197"] Hiya! I had to put down "Home Brew" because it's the one I DM'ed the most. It was "Generica" and is exactly as the name suggests; generic. This was when we first started learning 5e back with the Starter Box when it first came out. The first session we played 100% RAW. Second session saw a nix on how natural healing worked and I put in my own system. After that, we just kept on playing and testing the waters of RAW, with only minor changes in the initial year, with more and more substantial changes coming as I became more familiar with it all. Yes, that means Generica had MC'ing and Feats (surprise!)... but I (we, actually, as a group) finally put the nail in both of those OPTIONS after about a year and a half or so. Once I had what rules I use as DM for 5e, we switched over to Greyhawk. Only played about 6 or so months in that before life happened and everything got turned upside down. Now, a year and a half later, after playing many other systems and mini-campaigns, one of my players has FINALLY decided to take another crack at DM'ing. He did 'newbie' stuff the first couple times he's tried...but with 5e and where we have it (houserules and whatnot), he's feeling pretty confidant in his ability to learn...and, what's better, we just finished an adventure a few weeks ago and he has told us he's worked out a new one so we can continue and he wants to give DM'ing another go! :) So in a week or three I may be able to switch back into Player mode and pick up the tales of Wargrim Battlebrew, Dwarven Cleric of Ulaa! (right now I've been...er...DM'ing?... Dungeon World; turns out that's how I DM normally in a LOT of ways, but COMPLETELY DIFFERENT in others...it's an odd feeling...). So...Most played time in Homebrew, but last (and probably henceforth) I'll be back in Greyhawk. My one true Campaign Setting love. :cool: ^_^ Paul L. Ming [/QUOTE]
