Fell into D&D and other RPG/tabletop games way back in the mid 1970s... about the time Dragon magazine came out. :P So, a little exposure to military campaigns, D&D and later the early iterations of AD&D, only one or two games of Battlemech in the 80s and one GURP game. Swapped over to playing video games and lately, dipped the toe into WoW and Guild Wars 2... so probably way behind the curve on 5e, etc... but, being old as dust, I can recall the fun of 'table top' gaming.
