« Basic/Expert D&D »

Basic/Expert (B/X) D&D (1981) is a streamlined, classic edition of the game edited by Tom Moldvay and Dave Cook. It is famously divided into two boxed sets: Basic (levels 1–3, focused on dungeon crawling) and Expert (levels 4–14, expanding the game into wilderness exploration, domain management, and seafaring).

Key Features of B/X D&D:
• Rules Light, Creative Heavy: The rules are incredibly concise (fewer than 150 pages total). Instead of relying on rigid mechanics, it relies on DM adjudication and player ingenuity.
• Race as Class: Elves, Dwarves, and Halflings are treated as their own character classes rather than just races with stat bonuses.
• The "XP for Gold" Loop: You earn the vast majority of your experience points by recovering treasure, not by slaughtering monsters. This encourages players to be clever, sneak past threats, and avoid unnecessary combat.
• Wilderness Survival: The Expert Set introduces rules for hex-crawls, foraging, getting lost, building castles, and mass combat.

How to Play:
• Explore the Dungeon (Levels 1–3): Focus on resource management (torches, rations), mapping, and checking for traps.
• Expand to the Wilderness (Levels 4–14): Head out of the dungeon to map hexes, establish trade routes, hire mercenaries, and claim territories.
• Roll to Hit: Characters use a specific "To Hit" matrix or chart based on their level rather than adding modifiers to a d20 against an armor class.
• Morale Checks: Monsters and NPCs have a morale score. When combat turns against them, the DM rolls (2d6). If the roll is higher than the morale score, the monsters will attempt to flee, surrender, or negotiate.

« About Our Adventures »

Our campaigns will consist of various adventures tied to create long lasting campaigns which will help create "our own" Mystara & the Known World campaign setting.

We are always looking for more people that would like to join us that will be "dedicated" players & DMs.

We are very rusty to online play and have been away from the game for a long time so, if you can tolerate some mistakes being made while we learn then please give us a shout out.
