    Nonetheless, if you use the Swords and Wizardy Complete version, it is as close to 1e as your going to get without it actually being 1e, because it is using every supplement for 0e that existed right up to the release of the AD&D Players Handbook.
    On most of these points (excepting AC of course) C&C is still the best match.
    Similar (if not the same) core classes and races.
    Similar XP progression.
    Similar attributes and attribute bonuses.
    Similar Saving Throws.

    The big differences are: ascending AC and Siege Engine to replace all those tables and tables of skills etc.

    C&C is so low impact to run as a GM I frequently have 8+ players in my groups and it run smoothly.

    Give it a try (you can't go wrong for just $10) before you sign yourself up for hours and hours and hours and hours and hours and hours and hours of work that you might not even get anything out of.
