    AD&D 1E Three Things that can't be Fixed in 1e AD&D

    For the big OP point of AD&D's reverse bell curve big impact ability score system I was quite unhappy with it by the end of 2e. The disparity between a 17 strength fighter and an 18 percentile one is significant. Gatekeeping of classes behind stat requirements was annoying. The rich get richer...

    D&D General What is your favorite Fighting Style in 5e?

    Interception. My paladin was able to bodyguard and support other characters using their reaction to get more done most rounds. The visual of parrying incoming blows was great and it viscerally felt like I was actively helping others (often the rogue, sometimes the warlock, or others). Much...

    D&D General Is D&D-powered sci-fi having a moment?

    When I finally got a PDF copy of 1974's OD&D I was surprised to see the sci-fi that was there from the beginning. OD&D Supplement II Blackmoor from 1975 also has the whole Temple of the Frog adventure with its sci-fi elements.

    AD&D 1E Three Things that can't be Fixed in 1e AD&D

    For me the conjecture is downtime experimentation and research that comes up with something unexpected. Level up is when you get those epiphanies and breakthroughs.

    What RPG(s) did you stick with an earlier edition?

    Vampire the Masquerade 20th Anniversary Edition, which is a collation of stuff from Vampire the Masquerade Revised. This is me as a player as I have never run it but our group specifically chose this over Vampire the Requiem (despite the storyteller liking aspects of Requiem) and then again...

    AD&D 1E Three Things that can't be Fixed in 1e AD&D

    The acquiring a spell per level is its own rule (DMG page 39) separate from the training rules (DMG page 86) which includes both training under a higher level character and self training. That could be one way to to do it, but that is never specified. Generally you train under a specific...
