Welcome to /2eg/, a thread dedicated to all things 2nd Edition D&D related - including settings, lore, modules, and derived systems (Alternity, Buck Rogers XXVc, For Gold and Glory, Hackmaster, Myth and Magic, and more).

Since 2e draws heavily from earlier editions, older modules are welcome too. Other media derived from AD&D (such as Infinity Engine video games) also has a home here.

It's what you play, not how you play it. RAW or homebrew, as long as your table is having fun, there's no wrong way to play.

There's a surprisingly complete 2e fan wiki for rules stuff, it's excellent for quick reference:
https://adnd2e.fandom.com/wiki/Advanced_Dungeons_%26_Dragons_2nd_Edition_Wiki

It was an Image infringement thing, Mike's trademark style ironically is now property of the Lego Group, hence he had to Mega Blok/Roblox it up as seen here: >>97821241
(This only became an issue when Mike published a hardcover version for sale, because again, his original style is Lego Property.)

Of the Cloaans, only Mega and Best-Lock will actually have minifig accessories, and one of the reasons I prefer 2010 is that Construction Points allow you to stat up things that are NOT Minifigures.

>>97811190
>a dice-less wargame
neat.

>>97810889
the trick is to avoid games with enforced monopolies. if they're just using their rules as a way to get you to buy the official minis, you are going to have a shitty time. fortunately that only describes like 20% of the hobby. it's the most visible 20% because they advertise and shill like crazy, but it's not all there is.

once you get out of that bubble playing minis games becomes very affordable. most skirmish games can be played under $40 per army. some shit like gaslands or brikwars can be played for almost nothing.

>You know how people sometimes feel impulses to do bad things, but with the Good subtype (which I think you should have as a Half Celestial) you instead feel good impulses, and doing anything evil would be as unnatural and unpleasant as an arachnophobe looking at a collage of spider pictures.
Not that anon but thats a fun idea. I might nab that and use it somewhere in my own writing if I can think of how to somewhere.
>>
>>97831184
One of the D&D 3.5 jumps can get you there, adding an Alignment subtype is a thing that can be done with a ritual, but an easier path would be Tome of Radiance. Reaching level 20 in one of the three base classes gives you the Good subtype.

And while people with the Good subtype can fall, it takes constant, deliberate effort. Since you wouldn’t want to do such a thing (you chose to become Half Celestial after all), you can now be said to be truly incorruptible.

IT IS PLAYABLE. IT HAS BEEN PLAYED.
EXPEDITION is a ~1880s era, Jules Verne-inspired retro-futurist, underground blood soaked adventurescape.
It is a Skirmish wargame. Two players with their own expeditions, on a hexgrid map, explore & fight each other for victory and profit.

3 versions of the rules exist, 2 of which have been playtested. The main one is 2e, to be found :

I actually suggest letting him die and replacing him with his son, Eugene L.N.B., who'd be the exact same unit, but keeping all the lore - Charles' story happened, he met Akamnandag etc. and on the meta level we could say he was playable in an early edition. Emperor or not, this man fucked, he'd make a heir eventually.
For simplicity's sake we could use actual Eugene as base, regardless of whom Charles is likely to marry in this timeline. He'd be using his military career to build up clout and political support and basically become a mixture of his own father and Boulanger OTL.

I see a lot of critique for Abnett does his writing get worse later or something?

>Not that he was afraid of change. Change was, he always insisted, part of his ruling character. ‘The melancholic humour is protean,’ he said. ‘It possesses the quality of autumn. It is transformative. It makes me the accelerator of death, the enabler of ends and beginnings. I was made to clear away this world ready for renewal. To change the order of things. To cast out the false and enthrone the true. This is my purpose. I am not afraid.’
