Looking for players*****5E Conversion of the Classic DND Module CASTLE AMBER******

Hello!  I am looking for 3 more players for a game I am getting together for the classic DND module "Castle Amber".  If you enjoy the old school flavor as well as game design then you will love this module.  However you will also enjoy the streamlined rules and concepts of 5E,  since THe module is converted to 5e.  I am designing this based off of the Goodman Games version.  (Do not read it,  lol)  Your character can start at level 3 since the module is designed for levels 3-6.  We could continue and do something else after that,  but for now this is all I plan to do.  I run another group on Sunday nights with a similar concept.  I am a very reasonable DM and I want players to have fun.  That being said there are some rules: You use 4d6 method for stats,  and you roll for HP.  If upon rolling your first round of stats you realize they are terrible rolls,  you can choose to reroll all of them again once.  However,  no matter what,  you must take the second batch of stats if you do this. You must roll your stats and create the character in our session 0.  I prefer all of your info to be optimized on the sheet so you can roll from there.   I will tell you what we use for voice once you join as a player.   Please have the ability to have audio and video if necessary,  but normally we just use audio.   You may take a first level feat.  you may also take feats in lieu of ability score increase.   Please be respectful.  If you feel your personality is a thing that you cannot control,  If you are adverarial and argumentative continuously you will be asked to leave.  That being said,  there is a right way to suggest rules/feedback and I want players to contribute.  I.E.  if I misinterpret a spell or something,  it is ok to tell me I am wrong.  Just do it nicely! Please know the rules! Role-playing is encouraged,  but not required.  Do what works for you.  that being said,  DO not shame others for role-playing.  Sometimes playing your charater correctly can have negative side effects.  Please appreciate players right to immerse themselves in their character.   Finally- have fun! I am very detail oriented and design maps all custom to the game so you can expect a top level experience.  However it is a not a Video game.  you will be free to move your token down a hallway for example however I will still decide what traps,  attacks,  and such affect your character based on where your character would be in that certain situation.  I will use a marching order for this.   Looking forward to getting a lot of replies!  I would also like to add that ALL races, sexes,  and sexual preference are welcome.  The only requirement is that you enjoy this game,  and want to play it with integrity and have a good time.   I am in the Eastern Time Zone (US)
Well, a conversion is always intriguing! Sign me up, but please let me know what timezone you work from.

I would also like to join :)
Sounds like fun! Shoot me a message on discord if you still have some slots brett#5688
I saw your message to me earlier and my friend and I would love to join your game. We are CST time and are very flexible with play times. We are also very flexible on types of characters to make and typically like making characters that work well with the world and story. Our goal is to simply have fun.
This sounds really good, and I have been seeking another campaign since I started playing after many years away. Have also been desiring to play a more personally "immersive" game through role play. Though I took time off from playing (I go back to the first basic set with the blue book) I have been a creative professional for a very long time. See attached sample.

Color me intrigued.  Are there still spaces available? I've been playing and DMing 5e for 5ish years now, and lost all my regular games during the pandemic, so I'm chomping at the bit to get in on a regular game again. TIA
Hello everyone,  the spots filled in extremely quick for this.  Thank you all for your interest.
I am also in a situation where I can find openings for one, but there are two of us who lost our DM at the last minute and are ready to go. We are both old enough to remember first edition, so this would suit us well. We are eager and very ready to play, no flakiness, just excited to start playing.
