Everyone~
Hello! I heard about this site the other day and I decided to join the board. I've been playing D&D since I was 10 (the era of TSR). It has been some time since I've last played. I had the hoard of hoards when it came to books and other related items to the game, but alas my treasures are all gone now. Somehow the true prize out of it all was survived, my very first character.
Several years ago, I had decided to start playing again and I was luckily enough to have picked up a set of the 2nd edition core books before they vanished from the market. At that time I could not find anyone else in my area to play with, so I just worked on things in the hope of finding others. I then packed it all way, growing tired of working on things and having nobody to share my creations with.
Then about four years ago I met my Soulmate. I was so happy to find out they had a lot of 1st edition items! I then got all my stuff out and started working on things once again. This time around I was also lucky to have found many out of print items here and there on the web to download. I now have much of my original hoard back, it's just in a more condensed form.
I don't have anything that WotC has put out yet, I'm still not sure if I will or not. I look at it all the time when I'm out, but something is missing from their work, a certain feel I can't explain. When I did play before, I used a mix of 1st and 2nd ed rules in my games. If I do get 3.5, I'll just have to add it to the mix.
Anyway, I'm glad I have joined and I'm looking forward to getting to know some of you better and hearing what you all have to say about things.
