Dungeons and Dragons

[BBmolla]

It seems to be going back to the basics, which is probably a good move. Haven't explored it all that much fully.

[GreyICE]

Meh, not a fan. 4E is 90% of the way to being a perfect system, and Next seems to be starting with the goal of 'don't be 4E... but retain all the stuff that made 4E cool... but also have the stuff that made 3E cool... and throw in some 2E components... hell we won't even bother to call it a unified system, we'll tout different 'rules modules' as one of our features our goal is that impossible...'

Stupid.

[GreyICE]

So who wants to start a 4E game on Roll20 tabletop?

Because I could be down for running one.

[Nexus]

Yes? Depends on timings and stuff...


I haven't played D&D face to face for about two years

I was part of a two-year campaign which only had three players, and we didn't even finish it

3.5 4lyf, although I am willing to try 4E again...

[Sudo_Nym]

I could in for that, depending on the time frames.

Good, because I wouldn't touch the concept of DMing 3.5E with a barge pole

Heh, lemme see where I am after Labor day.

DMing 3.5e is easy.

[BBmolla]

Eh. I'd be willing to try 4. Rather'd play Pathfinder.

[GreyICE]

DMing 3.5e is easy.

If you like ripping your hair out, randomly killing your party, and having most encounters suck like a hoover vacuum.

I've DMed both editions, don't try and sell me on the idea that 3.5E is easy to DM.

3.5 is fun, probably more fun than 4. You have alot more room to be creative.

Edit-and I started with 4 and moved to 3.5

Each to their own

I'm an idiot and I can manage to DM 3.5E

[GreyICE]

I'd probably do Sunday afternoons or evenings (most likely afternoon).

I'd be running with the following variant rules:

1) classes that have 3 skills get a 4th free
2) all players may use skills out of combat according to the following rules:
- if the use is obvious for free (fire to ignite something)
- if the use is non-obvious (thunder wave to propel a boat) then roll an appropriate skill to see if you figure out how to do so.
3) portions may include a fatigue system.

I have literally never played D&D, but I would love to learn.

I am willing to vouch for the fact that he is an idiot.
