Though we used 1e AD&D as our foundation with all sorts of craziness slapped on here and there, in retrospect I think our games actually resembled B/X more than anything. But it was always just "D&D".Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5621016516937695074.post-23359216487088165152009-04-17T08:32:00.000-04:002009-04-17T08:32:00.000-04:00Will: that's an excellent point and one which ...Will: that's an excellent point and one which amazingly enough I do not think I have considered until now. <br /><br />Matthew: yep, plain ol' D&D.<br /><br />EG: yessir, "then off it goes" is as important as bolting new stuff on.<br /><br />jdh: I like to think that GMs will always feel the need to customize the rules. Doing so was actually part of the rules in OD&D.<br /><br />James M: Danke.<br /><br />Chris: Roars scare the neighbors.

When pressed, however, I tend to say "second edition" because that edition was as open to changes as OD&D, but it also enshrined the four basic character classes, and the D4, D6, D8, D10 HD schema.<br /><br />Yeah, there is no denying that my D&D is closer to AD&D/2e than it is to OD&D, but it is just "D&D" to me.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05646247954542936623noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5621016516937695074.post-91767741552151165152009-04-16T15:55:00.000-04:002009-04-16T15:55:00.000-04:00I prefer "classic D&D" so as to diff...I prefer "classic D&D" so as to differentiate the pre and post-Gygax eras.
