My name is Arthur, I've been gaming since '79 or so. Played a lot of D&D. Got my hands on RQ in '93, when I came across an unloved copy of RQ2 in a box of my friend's stuff. Quickly moved on to RQ3/Glorantha, which is the edition I played most. When those books started to get a little dog-eared, and my love of the setting waned, I moved on to HarnMaster Core, and was quite active on the harnforum. Along with RQ, HM has to be my favorite. Tried coming back to D&D with 3E, but got burned out due to prep time before games. Tried being a playtester for MRQ, and was unceremoniously booted from the list [no reason, no explanation]. I did manage to be a playtester for DBRP, for which I am very proud, simply because it is now a reality. I've played a lot of CoC, a setting that still gives me the creeps, and one for which I strictly adhere to the player's code
, never wanting to delve into the Keeper's section [no spoilers please
].
I was pretty active on the 4E forum until most recently, when I decided that I had no interest in learning a sixth edition of D&D (or 5.5 if you ask the bean counters), and now I'm here. I can't wait for the rules compendium, and putting together a new campaign for myself and my friends. I'm usually polite, though sometimes passionate. My english is often frustrating, though while it is my first language, it is not that of my spanish grandparents who rarely spoke english in the house.
This looks to be a great forum, with some nice downloads, and intelligent conversation. Thanks for the welcome.
