Tomb of Annihilation (OSR/Rules Lite)

Looking for 3-6 players for Tomb of Annihilation but not using 5e rules. Most likely using Sords and Wizardry ruleset. Schedule TBD just gauging interest at this point.  Anyone interested?
Im interested if you would go with D&D 3.5 (I see more players searching for a 3.5 DM so if you like that system it would be easy to fill a group). My schedule is very flexible.
Hmm. I'm in on the d20 mechanic but definitely not interested in straight 3.5, its the exact opposite of rules lite. I'm running a regular 3.5 game right now and I really don't like it at all. I'd be willing to use one of the Microlite 20 rulesets though. They keep the basic mechanics but strip out the skills, feats, and all the fiddly stuff that makes 3.5 so slow and clunky. I've tried it a few times and its pretty good.

I'd like to play! The OSR systems I'm familiar with the Game and the Roll20 Character Sheet of it: Basic Fantasy RPG Swords & Wizardry Old School Essentials Anything like those or similar, I'd like to try it on here with you all.

I'd be interested if the time/day was right. One group I'm in is already playing an OSE based campaign, and I like its simplicity/openness.
Yes, I'm interested; in an OSRish rules-light game. Not in trying 3/3.5 online, at least not right now. Swords and Wizardry would be great as far as I'm concerned, but I haven't played it yet. I may need a bit of guidance and/or patience. I'm available most days from EST 7pm. What timezone are you in?
Ah cool. No, definitely no 3/3.5. &nbsp;I’m&nbsp; <a href="https://time.is/New_York" rel="nofollow">https://time.is/New_York</a> . As for schedule, I’m waiting to see how a few things shake out. Honestly, I’d be fine with an every-other-week or even monthly pace. The lightness of the system should enable us to get quite a bit “done” in a few hour session.&nbsp;

I’ll keep you posted. Is the time difference going to be an issue?
