Greetings from the UK

#1 Post by Lunna »

Hi everyone and thank you for having me.

Starting playing Moldvay D&D basic in the early 80's then progressed to 1e. Then life took over and I've only just started getting back into it. Still got got my old manuals though!

Looking for anything D&D. Also interested in Labyrinth Lord & possibly Osric, though I've not read any of it yet.

Hope to start adventuring soon..

Hi, not sure about the second post rule. Do I need to post twice before I see anything?
Sorry!

This is a game about killing things and taking their stuff so you can become more powerful in order to kill bigger things and take even better stuff.

mjulius: That's how I know I'm home.
Pulpatoon: The whole point of PbP is to take the scheduling pressure off the game. We're just chatty because we're so eager!
Scott308: ...everyone should be reminded of just how wonderful the people they play games with here can be in real life.
Leitz: Quality and quantity wise, I think US is the best I've seen.
Paladin: I can promise terror, glory, and riches...or a quick and brutal death.
Inferno: Come on! That's was Vicar's Head, a completely different doomed village!
Rex: I can move to the wait list to let someone else into the game.

Always a chance you can find one either looking for players or taking waitlist players. Or in some cases ones that just started up might still be looking as well. Always good to check here: viewforum.php?f=21

Welcome both. If you’ve played Basic and Advanced, you’ve played Labyrinth Lord and OSRIC.

Hope you find a game soon! There’s plenty here to get caught up in.

Welcome aboard, Lunna and linX6!
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.
