We're using the 3 core books only and going as BTB as we dare.<br /><br /><b>JB</b>: No idea. It just clicked in my head almost two weeks ago that a return to AD&D using original books (not clones) was the way to go for us. Maybe it's the end of the world approaching.Lord Kilgorehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08100447170529010062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1954394848487110923.post-65950834036226241232011-09-01T01:24:13.042-04:002011-09-01T01:24:13.042-04:00Boog is done.Boog is done.Robert Conleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03863009007381185340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1954394848487110923.post-33365357496315093112011-09-01T00:38:35.599-04:002011-09-01T00:38:35.599-04:00Yeah, it seems to me that my old gaming group move...Yeah, it seems to me that my old gaming group moved to D10 eventually (this was back in 1986 you understand, so my memory's a little hazy). I know that the segments made more sense in light of weapon speed factor and spell-casting and the D10 seemed a no-brainer.<br /><br />Side note: What is in the water that I keep seeing these OSR bloggers starting up AD&D campaigns? I keep reading, "while I LOVE B/X I'm going to start up a 1e game." Did I miss a memo somewhere or something?JBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08532311924539491087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1954394848487110923.post-51529828896508852212011-08-31T18:18:41.261-04:002011-08-31T18:18:41.261-04:00Your idea of using d10 for initiative instead of a...Your idea of using d10 for initiative instead of a d6 is really cool.

So when they roll initiative they would subtract that number from their roll. So if they have a 15 dex and rolled a 4 on the d10 they would get to attack on segment 3.Gothridge Manorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11371740532802642972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1954394848487110923.post-59039294899478517282011-08-31T17:16:19.304-04:002011-08-31T17:16:19.304-04:00Sounds very exciting.
