Been playing since the mid 80's. I love to play but just can't find the time to commit to it every week. If I could find about 4 other players, who could commit to every saturday, well that would make me get back into it.
Our last group broke up about 2 years ago. At that time the brute I was playing was a level 10 Lycanthrope. Lots of fun with him. Class was custom War Priest. |

I played a lot during the 70's and 80's, but dropped it when they started the match Games Workshop business plan of revising the rules every few years to force new purchases. Haven't played in decades (at least not in this millenia) ... I prefer HeroQuest for a quick throw together game; or WarhammerQuest for DM-less adventuring.
Just because you're offended, it doesn't make you right.

I started playing right around when 2nd Edition AD&D came out. My first character was a Human Cavalier. We played on virtually a daily basis in high school. We'd hang out in the library (until we'd get kicked out) playing during lunch and any assemblies we could legitimately get out of. Then we'd gather at the DM's house on Saturdays for a few hours. I was lucky with a great first group (I'll forget the one clueless guy). I've never seen anywhere near as good. Most of the groups I've seen or heard of since have been like all the bad qualities of Knights of the Dinner Table.

I and a group of friends played 2nd edition for several years in the late 80s early 90s. Loved the game, a ton of fun. It was still a "real game" when most other rpgs started following the trend of turning into "rules lite let's play pretend" sessions. But I'm probably one of a very small minority that prefers a good hack & slash & loot session to sitting around and "acting out a fantasy with my friends." But to its credit, DnD can do either one effectively.
Just recently, I have been considering purchasing the new Basic Game boxed set to try to introduce my kids to the game. |

I played for a little over 10 years- 2E, 3E, and 3.5. I'd agree with Malechi except that the 3E rules were a VAST improvement over the former system. D20 is far and away easier, more robust, and more flexible.

3E (now 3.5) differs in innumerable ways. Most of your sacred cows are still there, but the system is vastly more intuitive than 2E. No complicated charts or entirely seperate methodoligies between classes. The same concepts apply if you're a fighter, rogue, or wizard. The 'feat' system gives you infinite flexibility which is augmented by the 'presige class' system.
Don't like rangers? Don't use em. Don't like magic? No problem. Want to use feats from 8 books, prestige classes from 4, a custom monster race and design your own spells? You can do that too. It's a system built from the bottom up. Truly genius. || My Maps Review Blog || My Maps Thread || My Marvel Customs || Knights of the Daystorm || [/CENTER] |

I used to love AD&D back when I could actually find people that wanted to play. I'm 24 years old now and it's VERY tough to find people that are still interested in AD&D, but it's definately a great game as long as you have a good DM.
