I'm telling you you're cheating yourself and your gaming group if you don't at least pick up a used copy!



Huge bump.

I've been playing Dungeons and Dragons for about 4 months now(it only took 3 years to get a group of friends together to play). Anyway, yes 3.5 is quite awesome.
Drinking beer instead of Pepsi makes for a whole new gaming experience also

Thanks for bumping this. I couldn't care less about D&D, but I love looking at old threads and seeing who's still around and who I still remember of those who aren't.

OPPYH of 2005 seems like a different sort than the one posting in RWED now, hmmm... interesting...

I have also played since 1979-80. I can also speak to the crazy parents who got worried in high school (even though their kid had been my friend for eight years - all of a sudden we were SUSPECT...). Silly.

While we are all doing vastly different things with our lives now (HS teacher, neurologist, university administration, international businessman, kung fu teacher), we still get together for a week every two years to visit and game. Brilliant.

One of our favorite stories was the culmination of about two real years of gameplay where we had finally chased a corrupt evil mage into the bowels of a huge castle. We penned him into a small room (no teleport left) and he wall of forced himself in. We rock to mudded the ceiling. Then dispelled it.

Yeah, and I'm also surprised he's in his 30s, I basically only know him from his current presence in RWED and I was sure he was a teenager with too much time on his hands.

Not trying to insult you here, OPPYH, that just really is what I thought.

No more RWED posts for me....ever!
I'm getting back to the stuff that really matters. Fantasy, and escapism is where it's at.
