Basic Fantasy RPG Forums

Thank you all for the warm welcome. Checking out that PBP game now...

Hello Everyone. I am really glad I found this site! I have downloaded the game and organized the mountain of paperwork. I must say, when I first came upon the site I cried for 23 minutes. It was amazing! old school AD&D isn't dead, it's alive! ITS ALIVE!!

I have already gathered a group and will be making charcters soon. I have written (45% complete) my adventure. If its any good I will ask SOLO to maybe post it up. I like the adventure modules others have written - some good stuff!

Okay - who is DiceClown? I am glad you asked. My name is John, I live in SW Missouri. I am 37 and have been an avid RPG gamer for many years. I pretty much stopped just before 3.0 emerged. However, my love of the original AD&D still beats within my chest. I am rather opinionated about the "version wars", but I will never let that wreck a friendship. Lets just say I m really, REALLY glad to be among you all.

BRING YOUR OWN DICE!
John

Welcome to the forums!

Welcome! Glad you found your way back to old school games.

Welcome John... and I've got to get a dog avatar apparently.

Welcome!!!

Indeed welcome. Always happy to see another face....errr poster.

Still you guys always make me feel so young. Goodness most of my players are double my age...

Welcome Diceclown and hi all. Also new here and looking for a live online weekly game. on Thursdays. I'm 50+ and hail from SE Texas. I've recently run some Labyrinth Lord but am currently groupless so I figured I would check out this system.

Welcome.

Hey Gilliadson (Thanks for the warm welcome from all!)

I have looked into the Labrynth Lord game recntly. I Think LL is closer to the D&D game and Basic Fantasy is more like AD&D. It is hard for me to get used to elf, dwarf or hafling being their own class. I would like to get a chat-based game going. I have my own website with chat...I am looking for an online dice roller to embed. Once I have this set up I would like to play one-shot Basic Fantasy games. INTERESTED?

I think I need to give a heads-up. I am an ordained minister (chaplain really) and my site is geared toward my own RPG creation, "Redeemia" (90% complete) which is an old school format game also. I am NOT..repeat NOT against non-christian roleplaying games. So, please do not feel I am a "beat-you-over-the-head-with-a-big-black-bible-kinda-guy"

I cut my teeth on dungeons and dragons since the late 70's (I was about 6 yrs old when I played with my older brother). Led games as a DM when I was 8. I am a Christian advocate for roleplaying games Tghey are, after all, the FIRST Life Group...the church community thinks they thought of this
