Saving Throes # 124 - Around the Campfire: Preparing for My AD&D 2e Game

Red Rooster

Welcome to the Saving Throes podcast! This is my Tabletop role-playing game podcast, part of the Red Rooster's Gaming Coop network where I talk gaming and gaming culture every week. Each episode will feature a topic or theme along with my take on current happenings in the world of tabletop role-playing games and semi regular updates on the games I am currently involved with, or new games or products I have come across.

Very recently my home game group decided to visit the past and play AD&D 2e. We will be playing through the classic 2e Vecna trilogy starting with Vecna Lives! That my group agreed to do this was a very pleasant surprise for me. I have mentioned this game very briefly in the recent past, but now that we have started it, I can't stop thinking about how great it has been so far, and I wanted to share my experience in getting use out of many of my 2e rulebooks again! Tune in to hear how I helped my group to clear their heads of modern day D&D tropes and get their mindset back into the classic D&D assumptions of yesteryear.
