Do you remember the good ol' days of Dungeons & Dragons before kits, prestige classes and Half-Orc Barbarian Dragonkind? When people talk about Elves or Halflings, do you think they are both a race and a class? Do thieves and magic-users only get d4 hitpoints and no one expects to break the 20 hitpoint mark until fourth level? Do clerics begin without spells? Well then, welcome home to the newest Classic D&D game in the Kansas City metro area.
What is Classic D&D? It is a version of Dungeons & Dragons published between roughly 1981 and 1995 which some people call Basic. There were numerous additions and revisions but the system was designed for easy game play. I play 3.5 as well but there is nothing quite like playing the original (or Classic) editions.

If you have comments, suggestions or questions, please send me an e-mail. I am always eager to talk about my favorite version of my favorite game and am open to ways to make this site better (Yes, I do plan on switching to style sheets but learned HTML when frames were new).
