Oh, ok, I see. WE used to have an old atari, but it broke down, and we couldn't fix it, so we sold it to someone who wanted it, broken or not. But yeah, I was talking abot the paper version, I find it to be fun, especially since when i knocked my little brother over the head, my mom (the DM) said he lost 3 HP from the hit, it was funny, because he tried to hit me back, and misses, causing himslef more damage cause he fell on his face, we all laughed. But that's only what the serious DMs do, usually it's just casual with my friends, nothing like that happens. There's also the old vidoe games called D&D, they were fun too, a lot less work, haha.

yes, i actually play. i own the 3.5 PH and DM's Guide, and an expansion (perils of wind and waves or some such)

I don't know about rulebooks or anything, but then again, I don't worry about it, I'm a player, not a DM, they can worry about it, all I need is my character, and my dice bag, with the dice of course. Were you planning on playing at some competitions?

i play, but play is a relative word. my friends and i lost our DM, so now we just create crazy characters and argue over who is gonna learn DMing next.

i have a lvl2 sohei, lvl 3/4 rogue. and a lvl 18-ish shadow rogue.

the shadow is beast. incoporeal, so it can barely ever be touched, and it can frighten any creature within like 50 feet or something. if it kills any humanoid creature it brings it back as a shadow "hireling"-thing, and can control up to 74 of them. this thing is basically a one-character army.

I'm more of a tank person, but I make sure I can come out of it alive. I usually pick a ranger class, because they can do the whole two-handed fighting thing well, and I really like that, it's awsome.

[Capt.ArD]

yeah, i always use two-handed fight where possible. dual rapiers are my faves for the shadow. my friend is a tank player as well. builds ridiculous amounts of hitpoints and mad strength, clumsy as an elephant and dumb as a rock.
