Jeff<p>A week or so ago, I was watching a video on older versions of <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/DnD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DnD</span></a> and <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/THAC0" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>THAC0</span></a> finally really clicked hard with me. Once life settles down a bit, I'm going to work with members of my <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Pathfinder" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Pathfinder</span></a> group to develop an <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/ADnD2e" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ADnD2e</span></a> game loosely based in <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/AlQadim" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AlQadim</span></a> as a backup for when we are missing one or more players.</p><p>I'm dying to get back to AD&amp;D2e. That was the game I started with and that's the version that still really excites me. </p><p>I'd happily play some version of Basic D&amp;D or one of the retro-clones, but I think if it's going to happen at all, I'll have to be the one to run it. But that's fine, I love the freedom of the earlier editions to tell a really fun, engaging story for my players.</p><p><a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/TTRPG" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TTRPG</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/GMLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GMLife</span></a></p>
Jeff<p>I'm super excited to get to run <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/ADnD2e" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ADnD2e</span></a> again, even if it's just a backup game for our <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Pathfinder" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Pathfinder</span></a> group.</p><p>I'm hoping that everyone is interested enough in that game that I can run some classic modules when we finish the <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/RiseOfTheRunelords" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RiseOfTheRunelords</span></a> campaign.</p><p>It'll be nice to finally get to run <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/AlQadim" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AlQadim</span></a>. I've had the boxed set and campaign book for a while now, and I haven't gotten to use it. Looking forward to some tomb raiding, djin wishing, carpet flying adventures!</p><p>I think I'll make a few quality of life improvements to the old system and work out ascending instead of descending AC to make it easier on the players though. </p><p><a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/GMLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GMLife</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/TTPRG" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TTPRG</span></a></p>
Jeff<p>I'm going to work on a backup <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/TTRPG" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TTRPG</span></a> game for our Sunday <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Pathfinder" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Pathfinder</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/RiseOfTheRunelords" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RiseOfTheRunelords</span></a> campaign for when we can't all make a session.</p><p>I'm leaning towards the <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/AlQadim" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AlQadim</span></a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/ArabianNights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ArabianNights</span></a> setting. I've had the boxed set for years, and I haven't had the chance to use it yet.</p><p>It'll probably be <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/ADnD2e" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ADnD2e</span></a> but I'm not above trying to make it work for <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/CastlesAndCrusades" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CastlesAndCrusades</span></a>. If it's AD&amp;D, I'll probably convert AC to ascending instead of descending, for the ease of the players (and for me!). </p><p><a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/GMLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>GMLife</span></a></p>
MDMRN<p>A question for my <a href="https://urusai.social/tags/TTRPG" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>TTRPG</span></a> friends - did any of you play any of the 90s <a href="https://urusai.social/tags/DungeonsAndDragons" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DungeonsAndDragons</span></a> PC games? If so, which did you play and which were some of your favorites?</p><p>I remember playing <a href="https://urusai.social/tags/AlQadim" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AlQadim</span></a>: The Genie's Curse, Eye of the Beholder, &amp; the original Baldur's Gate game (a little bit of it). I bought the remake of Baldur's Gate for my <a href="https://urusai.social/tags/NintendoSwitch" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NintendoSwitch</span></a>, but haven't started it yet.</p><p>What about you?</p><p>Tags: <a href="https://urusai.social/tags/DnD" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DnD</span></a> <a href="https://urusai.social/tags/RetroGaming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>RetroGaming</span></a> <a href="https://urusai.social/tags/PCGaming" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>PCGaming</span></a> <a href="https://urusai.social/tags/MSDOS" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>MSDOS</span></a> <a href="https://urusai.social/tags/VideoGames" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>VideoGames</span></a></p>
