[QUOTE="Zardnaar, post: 7587053, member: 6716779"] Not really you can run 1E type games in 2E. Adventure design changed, 2E adventures tend to be more narrative. 2E had weak adventures though hence not many make best of adventures type things. The difference s between 1E and 2E are less than 1E and clones if 1E generally. There's not much point in cloning 2E as you can use a 1E clone and can't touch the parts of 2E that made it distinct from 1E. That being the settings and levers type books. 2E kits can work with clones and 1E. Other clones like Castles and Crusades have a lot of optional rules in the castle keeper guide so they kind of duplicate the 2E dmg and you can plug in 3.0 type "feats" if you want to as they are in the CKG. B/X clones tend to be close to the old B/X rules maybe with ascending ACs and a lower power level on the classes. We mixed and matched heavily circa 2012-14 and kind of settled on houseruled 2E and C&C if you want to keep elements of modern D&D or if you wanted a genre. 2E would be the best D&D for a Game of Thrones type game due to things like Birthright and critical hits from Combat and Tactics for the grittiness.
