Ahem... I haven't touched the game for yeeeaaars... until Raf said something about an oD&D gathering.
About the oD&D It is cool and all, but it has flaws. If you try to fix them according to the 3rd edition experience, the game becomes broken: I.e magic users getting bonus spells from intelligence sounds lame in oD&D rules since their spells are very powerful. On the other hand I hated running around in 90% of the adventure only to throw a spell in the big moment.
Still... it was a cool feeling at the end throw a sleep spell and down all the guards of the boss.
PS. Perhaps I'll try it again though.
