Here at the Gates!

#1 Post by Valdus »

Floating about the internet, I am an ancient gamer, first playing with Moldvay's Red Box. I am looking for a Labyrinth Lord game. From what I hear that seems to be the closest modern thing to what I once played.

Anyone got a game?

Welcome, Valdus. You're definitely in a good spot for some old school gaming.

I'm actually running a LL game myself, with a daily posting rate. If that is a pace you think you'll be able to keep up with, my game is at a good spot to introduce new players. Just let me know. If you're looking for something more casual, I'm sure there are options available. Definitely check out the list of games and see if something catches your interest.

Good luck, and welcome again!

I am running ( or trying to) a Keep on the Borderlands myself; not sure if that would help or hinder my play.

Welcome aboard!
Sometimes this summer I will most likely be participating in another 24 hour game of Dungeons & Dragons as part of Extra Life. This organization uses gaming to help raise money to donate to children's hospitals. I'm raising money for Marshfield Children's Hospital in Marshfield, WI, and all money I raise will go to that hospital. All donations are tax-deductible. Please take a moment to check out my donation page below. Thank you.
