<div class="IPBDescription">A hello & a poll.</div> Hey all,
Most of the forums know me anyway, but yes, I am a self confessed RPG dweeb. However, as I have explained many times, the best way to <b>not</b> be considered a nerd is to thrive on it. Just tell people, "yeah, but it's kinda cool, we have a laugh and don't take it too seriously." and you won't get those looks anymore.
I come from an RPG'ing background though, with quite a few previous groups, as well as working for quite a few years for Games Workshop before deciding I needed to get a proper job which paid properly. <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif'><!--endemo--> So I may be biased.
So, Lo to the RPG portion of the NS boards, and here's my poll to kick us off.
D&D. Was it better at 2nd or 3rd Edition?
My 2c? 3rd. All the way. Such an improvement, that should have been done earlier.

its not even similer. shure, the inverted AC system is a little easyer, saving throws needed the tweaking.
i mean really, the made the terrisque killable! whassup with that?
yes, there needed to be improvements. but you didnt have to switch over to a whole different system!
Third edition is fine, as a game. But it's not a roleplaying game. The rules are so strict, so specific and so unflexible that they are a hindrance to roleplaying rather than a help. If only I could convince the gaming group to start playing werewolf, that game is so much bettter.
