Hooray!... er, uh oh...

If I may, I'd like to get on the waiting list. I'm relatively new to playing 1e, but figure by the time I actually make it in I'll have some more experience. Anyway, I can probably die horribly as well as the next guy already.

Thanks,
ChubbyPixie.

Pol cringes, watching with dread as Lilliput throws the fire bomb at the surface of the pool. Visions of the dangly ropes catching fire and incinerating his brothers crowd out every other thought for an anxious moment. Then, seeing Lilliput's plan succeed as the worms catch fire and submerge, he has...

And the following are possibly a dumb AD&D1e newb GM answers. - "Cause Light Wounds" is itself the reversed version of "Cure Light Wounds". IMHO this whole thing about reversible spells was just a page-saving gimmick to avoid having to re-print spells that are equal in every...

Seeing his brother Ull being bit on the groin by a worm is high comedy for Pol, mainly since he himself is already safe on this side. He starts to point and guffaw, when he hears Lilliput shouting from the opposite bank. "Hit dem wormies with some oil; ifs you gots it." Pol hesitates a mom...

The following is possibly dumb question about 1e (I've never played a cleric in any edition): Is Pol's Cause Light Wounds spell reversible? I realize that under the rules a cleric must learn it (request it) it one way or another. Does this mean each day? Or that once granted by the deity the first t...

Can I just say something? I love the music. I evokes images of a bad 80's movie version of the adventure, with the part of Pol being played (of course) by Michael Douglas. But with dirt smeared on him. On another note, I am a big fan of vintage minis. I've got about 200 of them I've been toting arou...

Theket scratches his head and says, "How about we pour the blue stuff on the ground in front of us and do a sliding dive through them worms?" Pol listens to Theket's suggestion and shakes his head in disgust, wondering how his brother has made it this far in life without dying. I'm not go...

That was a thought I had, too. To use the dangly ropes...

Pol says: "Maybe we can jump on them dangly thingies, climb up away from the wormies and make our way to the other side?"

Btw, I am taking over the role of Pol the Unholy. Howdy.

This looks like a good time. I'd like to play, if I may.
I am super, super new. Just signed up here a couple of days ago. But I've got all the rules and such – OSRIC pdf, 1ePHB.
Please count me in.

Hooray!

There will be mayhem, right? I'm just assuming there will be mayhem.

Good advice - I will take my time. And I guess I'm in the right place if I run into trouble. It'll be a good exercise at the very least. Can't wait to follow along and witness the mayhem...

Well, that's helpful. Thanks.
Perhaps I'll give it a shot. I'm pretty much guaranteed to die anyway, right? Is that the fun part? Hopefully I'll get er done in time to join...

Hi, ye all. ChubbyPixie here. I must say I'm quite pleased to find this PbP forum and collection of old-timey edition likers - heard about it on the Roll for Initiative Podcast. Could it be that my dream of finally playing forreals in a ADD1e game will transpire? One hopes. I see there are still ope...
