Grokkngrognard Looking To Play A Game
Old Skool gamer looking to play in a basic meat and potatoes OSR or similar type game. My interests run toward B/X, S&W, LL, OSRIC, these sort of games. Don’t care for anything crunchier than these. If I do it’s because I’ve got the fever for the flavor of playing such a game.

Check out Spearmint’s Barrowmaze game, he is always accepting players. Also Ogre Mage might be accepting players in his Return to the Border Lands game. We also just started up a Basic type game that might take another player.

Check out the introduction to B/X hacked with Chainmail, that's about as old skool as you can get! We're in the middle of adding one player, and the rules are pretty light.
Here's the game in play.

I am running an Old School Essentials game, which is essentially a cleaned up B/X. But I have quite a few house rules. Right now the players are in a bog-standard dungeon crawl, but there will be moments of roleplay now & again.grokkngrognard wrote: ↑Wed Feb 14, 2024 11:07 pm Old Skool gamer looking to play in a basic meat and potatoes OSR or similar type game.

Alos, a good option is to look at some games and if they interest you just PM the person running the game. Sometimes they have room for another player, other times they can put you on a wait list.

^^^^^The post above is a great idea, and has worked well in the past!
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.

All DMs are NOT created equally!
Not all players have the same desires or expectations.
Rex (and Ron) speaks the truth. There are a several games running here touted as old school that aren’t even close to the real deal.
If you want to find a game that fits your style of play, the best thing you can do is to take the time to read through a few scenarios of different games. Once you find something you like, send the DM a message. If they have a place for you, you'd be starting out where you want to be instead of investing time in a game you aren’t necessarily in love with.
I hope that makes sense.
