I really prefer the IWD style portraits... Anyone have thoughts on this? - Page 4

Some of us do remember the original. "No mom, I needed the expert AND the basic set. I gotta get the basic box now too." I still have some of the original dice (with the wax crayon bits you had to scrub in the numbers), an original first print Fiend Folio, DMG, PHB, MM and someone took off with my Dieties and Demigods (WITH Elric and Cthulu in it). It was so popular at my gradeschool (Catholic school w/ the nuns & whole nine yards), that they made an extra-curricular class out of it. . . (talk about progressive Catholic school...this was even during the time of the game getting bad flack from crazy kids killing each other and themselves while playing it.)
I actually remember the stink about Gygax's "new" game ripping off one already in existence called "Chainmail". How's dat for oldschool?
