[QUOTE="teitan, post: 6612996, member: 3457"] Honestly, in the run up to fifth, I got the feeling the idea was TO USE the backlog. Conversion appears to be a breeze, not quite like first to second or basic easy but using the old stuff is not a chore at all. They even included conversion notes for the more complicated material such as the list of gods for the different settings. Grabbing the grey box, the gold box, the FRCS or 4e campaign and players guide one could run a fifth FR campaign with the ease of using them in the original editions. With the players guide for PotA, you even have the third FRCS genasi to update. Dndclassics has all the supplement material you need and most of that second edition era material is pretty rules neutral when you really look at it considering how bare bones first and second were in comparison to third and fourth. So basically, people need to quit whining. [/QUOTE]
