AD&D 1E Greyhawk Campaign daytime EST

1671285226

Edited 1671285295
I want to play a game during the daytime EST. I'm thinking about starting around 10:00AM EST and playing 4 or 5 hours. Probably one day a week but I wouldn't mind two days a week if it worked out for everyone.  I'm retired so I'm basically free any weekday and can play till the wife gets home around 6pm EST. I have been running games for many years but took a couple of years off from RPG's after the lost Covid Years (mostly because I played so much when locked down). I do not want to go back to 5E (what I had been running for years) but my AD&D books sitting on my shelf grabbed my attention! I have no idea if there are enough interested players willing to give AD&D 1E a try under a new DM but I thought I would give it a try. I want to try running AD&D 1E. I have not ever played or run AD&D 1E much at all so this will be a learning experience for me. I'm an ok DM, mostly theater of the mind with a good amount of chalkboard type battlemap when things get complicated. I tend to role play a lot more than at least was typical for 5E games(I was told) but my games are actual games and not storytelling at all. Mostly the games will be player driven. You guys will decide what you want to do from your own goals or by picking one or more of the adventuring options I will leave strewn across the landscape.  Greyhawk is my favorite setting from my old AD&D 2E days. Let me know if you think you would be willing to give it a try and what time and day(or days) you would be interested in. 
Sounds fun but like most players...not free till after 5:30 pm est. Interested tho...

That sounds cool and fun, also great schedule, Karl the Bold. Speaking of AD&amp;D 2E, what's your thoughts on running or playing 2nd edition system? It's the system that I am most passionate to play in Roll20. That said, Roll20 has a great Character Sheet for AD&amp;D 1st (developed by Vince), and it can really make your AD&amp;D gaming easier and good-looking on this digital format. I will say I am thinking about it because the schedule would be fun, and my inclination is generally towards more Digital Maps (rather than just sketching x's and o's) and toward AD&amp;D 2E, so if you wanted to move slightly into that direction (while keeping the TotM, the RP amount, the Non-5E, the player-driven, and literally keep exactly the same Greyhawk setting) in that arrangement I will definitely want to apply and help.&nbsp;

I'm just a determined player.

No, Moss, I'm answering Karl the bOld about a Free game from the top post. Not asking about Moss LFG listing for a $10 paid game of Temple Of Elemental Evil which you linked to. That's different.

I too am old school and greyhawk is my first gaming love. could i be one of murlynd's paladins? <a href="https://greyhawkonline.com/greyhawkwiki/Murlynd#Paladins" rel="nofollow">https://greyhawkonline.com/greyhawkwiki/Murlynd#Paladins</a> id play him as a hexblade warlock using the eldritch blast as the firebrand so it couldnt be used by others(to maintain balance)
crud just saw where you wanted it in 1st edition :( a warlock wouldnt work then.
I am very interested in this game. &nbsp;If it’s during the week, it would have to be early in the day since I leave around 1 pm for work. &nbsp;PM me for more discussion.
