Always wanted to try playing AD&D? Tired of the grid-based focus of newer editions? Now is your chance! One spot left. Will teach Fantasy Grounds and C&C (AD&D)
About me: Hello, I'm a young grognard and been playing AD&D since grade school! I worked with TSR at westcoast conventions in 1988-90, sword fighter in the SCA, fantasy, scifi nerd my entire life. I was that kid that read Thomas Convenant in class, started the D&D club, went to all the conventions. Got involved and ran modules and campaigns using AD&D, AD&D 2e, Traveler, D&D 3e, 5e and C&C. In the last 3 years I played and ran in person and on FG AD&D, 2e, 5e and C&C. Finally converted the B2 into FGU. Currently running two in person groups. Now looking to run another on FG.
DM Style: There are two types of old school OSR DM's. Grid-based with RP only in town and the RP DM with RPing dramatic combat with a narrative. I am the later. Back in the 80's I used to host panels that tried to get DM's to RP in combat. We come a long way since then. Toss that battlemap away and try running it with theater of the mind (TOTM). I love miniatures, I 3D print and paint miniatures. But D&D can be more immersive and dramatic without them. Yes, they can be needed for epic boss battles with 30 goblins and 2 ogres and evil priests. Its the DM's job to describe whats going on. The player describes what he is doing. The DM describes what happens. I encourage RPing and reward it. Also encourage asking questions. Confirming and verifying. Absolutely. I see my job to support and assist the players do great memorable creative things. Pull actions off that no newer D&D system would ever allow. Lets have fun!
Adventure: This is the newer B2 Return to the Keep on the Borderlands. I rewrote and re-organized its use and layout for running it in FGU. Also, added a lot of further detail and dialog and descriptions. Since almost everyone has already played the original B2, this version is significantly different to be fun for almost anyone. It's perfect for a small canned campaign that offers everything D&D has to offer in the game. Perfect for teaching oldschool D&D and vest players for future bigger campaigns.
Looking for new players:
Im seeking adults that may never have played before.
Only ever played D&D 5e and want something more.
Or that have a long time ago and want to play again.
Prefer Central or West coast players with excellent internet
