Anyone planning any OSR/D&D5e?

Be sure to read and follow the guidelines for our forums.

I recently emigrated down under, and I'm sorely missing roleplaying.

Anyone thinking of starting a D&D 5e or LotFP/Labyrinth Lord that I can tag along on?

I'm thinking of running a new game as the CoC adventure I was running died.

I'm interested in playing some more 5e. Preferably as a player because I have my offline group to DM.

The more I see posts like these the more I want to spin up a new 5e game. Is that the preferred system here? Which is OSR again?

Sorry, Old School Roleplaying AKA OD&D. Labyrinth Lord, Lamentations of the Flame Princess, D&D1E / 2E etc.

EDIT: I am an idiot.

I'm currently reading A Red and Pleasant Land, while wondering if I'm the right kind of crazy to run it. I'm also tempted to run a 2nd end dungeon crawl converted to 5e if anyone is interested.

Not quite OSR, but closeish - I've been considering running Curse of Strahd (The Strahd material from Ravenloft bundled together and updated to 5e). Although I'd have a preference for players that haven't played any of the original Strahd material (and if you're into OSR you might well have!)

We only had a couple of homebrew one-shots back in the days of AD&D set in Ravenloft, so you could say I'm just familiar with the setting.

I'll start putting it together then today :)

I wouldn't mind joining in to that. I was in a Ravenloft game run on GP here, but it stalled out shortly after I joined.

Great. I'll invite both of you when I set it up later. So you can get thinking, I'm going with a somewhat restrictive race limitation to keep with the historical Ravenloft - only humans, halflings, elves, dwarves and half elves (and I'd like no more than one elf and dwarf, should people choose those races). Level 1, any published material is allowed. I'm willing to discuss psion v2 if someone is interested in it.

Apply ! I'll take the first four, but you two have a reserved slot.

I'm sure those remaining spots will fill up, but hit me if they don't and you want to get running.

I have dropped an application in there too. This stuff is really addictive, isn't it?

It really is! I'm in way over my head and I just keep digging!

If you're in way over your head...

If you have interest from more new people, I would be more than happy to drop out and give someone my spot.

Come to think of it, I will do that anyway. I need to stop hogging the good games :)

In that case then, I'll try to make sure your slot goes to someone new(er). I'll send an invite to Valcos (who posted earlier on in this thread expressing interest in playing, and only has 2 characters in the database!) and try and get some new faces into some action around here :)

Much appreciated :) And thank you for the prompting, because I REALLY do have a problem and need to avoid joining more games!

I still say we need to start a support group...
