Been playing since 1978 to about 2008 (Original to 3.5). In between ran and played five - six Pathfinder and a couple DCC games for few years. From 2013 running a 3.5 campaign, but should be wrapping up in a few months. Somewhat interested in 5th, hoping to find a decent enough DM to give it...

Hi folks, could use 1-2 more players for D&D 3.5 game in Leesburg, VA. It is urban/city home brew campaign setting barely started - two sessions have been held. New players welcome. Group is primarily adults in their 30s-40s.

For the four systems I bought (Labyrinth Lord, Basic Fantasy, ACKS, and DCC), Goodman games DCC is hands down my favorite to run. The character generation funnel system, warrior mighty deeds die, the disfavor system for clerics - corruption for wizards, and random spell results for all casters...

After some thought, initially biased toward the structured format of 3.0/3.5 and reading some of the posts here, I voted no slots and believe its best to just leave it to the DM and his campaign preference in regards to power-level and quantity of magical items in his campaigns. Perhaps the DMG...

Played it at my local LGS, and it was pretty good. One DM got sick, so the remaining DM had 9 players (2 paladins, 2 clerics, 1 wizard, 2 rangers, 1 fighter, 1 thief). Also the DM had planned to coordinate with others group remotely on the idols, but could not get his laptop to connect. So...

Hi guys, Anyone have an opportunity to purchase and can provide a more specific review of Monsters & Magic? Or perhaps a simple comparison of the ruleset, is it more like Labyrinth Lord, BFRPG, or DCC? I am trying to find a good OD&D/1st edition emulation, with some modern rules cleanup, and...

Hello folks, I would like to DM a one-shot play test of the most current play test packet (4/1/13) from Wizards of D&D Next (5th edition basically). The download packet is about 27MB. Where: at my home in Leesburg, Va Date/Time: Saturday (TBD June 8 or 22) 1pm – 6pm In order to get...

Looking to see how many players might be interested in a Goodman Games DCC RPG campaign in Leesburg, VA. If you are not aware of DCC RPG, it is system roughly based on D&D 3.5, though retro in mechanics favoring 1st edition D&D. To be clear it will not appeal to all players, below are some of...
