D&D was so incredibly substance-assisted.

An ex girlfriend of mine confessed to me that the combination of substance and the smell of my oiled chainmail has dominated her libido ever since.

I'd have gone for lesbian, but nun is equally likely.

Well thats a lot more positive response than I'd been expecting. Sounds like we really should think about doing something - either face to face or with Roll20 or both

It feels like classic D&D is the one we are all most familiar with and that no one thinks its fun to role play debating field-crop rotation systems rather than killing orcs.

Im not sure what a good next step would be. I'm going to a RPG event in Manchester next month where I'll play my first game for 20+ years and it might remind me whats involved with it all

EB - im very pleasantly surprised. Though your memory of what Clerics do compared to what they actually do (cure light wounds) seem to be somewhat different. It would be great to see a pic of your original figure though!

Despite the diet I think we're unlikely to see EB's original figure...

I always thought clerics were portable meat shields

I don’t mind playing a cleric: nearly a fighter, nearly a mage, party healer, and undead turner.

3rd edition monks are pretty good too.

I was usually a fighter, but I had a couple of magi. I was always happy to kill clerics and had a thing about cutting of thieves' hands.

To this day, I cannot see why women were keen on D&D but not on wargaming.
