0. Yep, the rules say to roll 3d6. Welcome to 1st Edition...but let me 
put it this way, if you want to assign your attributes after rolling 
them, I'm not gonna question you on it.


1. The "revised" edition that Lostnbronx has posted is only different in 
layout. He hasn't changed the wording of anything


I'm happy/excited to see interest in the game!

Keep in mind that if you've never played and are curious about it, 
you're welcome to join in, even if you only end up sticking around for 
20 minutes. And I'm sure an experienced player will be happy to drop out 
to the lounge with you to help you build a character, if you have no 
idea what that's all about.

I picked a class (wizard) and then spells to go with it.

Do I need to roll for attributes or something?

These are the same rules, but I tweaked the layout a bit, changed the
cover, and removed the interior art. The Creative Commons Zero 
license

of the original version made this possible, and, of course, this
version is released under the same license.

Grab that from here:

http://gopher.info-underground.net:70/lostnbronx/Dungeon-Raiders_revised-edition-d03.epub

I'll leave it up on my server until after the game.

Once again, the original rules can be obtained for free (as in beer
and freedom) from:

I hope to see you all there!

   1. Community play RPG. Save the date. (Klaatu)



Hi all.

My plans to run a community, free-form RPG during the New Years call
never came to fruition, mostly due to scheduling, but also for the
realisation that the New Years Eve call is, as they say, what it is.

The

New Years Eve call cannot be tamed. It cannot be molded. It is free,

and

that is beautiful.

## NEW PLAN!

I'll be in Boston for a week, later this January, so my timezone is

less

of a barrier. If you want to play an RPG, I'll be on the HPR Mumble
Server on this day:

UTC: Wed, Jan 31 01:00 to 08:00
EST: Tue, Jan 30 20:00 to 03:00

* We'll be crawling a HUGE dungeon without a story (unlike the

series

Thaj, Lobath, and I did on HPR), so you can pop in or pop out

whenever

is convenient for you. It won't affect the game at all.

* No experience is required or expected. I'm happy to teach new

players.


* This is a game, and will be recorded (possibly released, possibly
not), Some chat is expected, but too much off-topic chatter should

be

taken to another channel.


## Here is what you need to do to prepare:

0. Download "Dungeon Raiders", a public domain clone of D 1st

Edition,

from http://www.rpgnow.com/product_info.php?products_id=99366. It's

$0,

but you can also support the publisher by throwing in a buck or two.

1. Create a character:
a. Choose a class (epub page 6 to 9)
b. If you're a magic user, review your spells (epub page 14+)

2. Get some dice or a dice roller app (or learn the random module of
Python, or similar)

3. Show up ready to play!


See you there!
