Day 28: Favorite Game You No Longer Play
The two games I play most in olden days were Advanced Dungeons & Dragons and Melee/Wizard. I had the black box Traveller but spent more time fooling around with it than I did actually playing it. Since I still pull out Melee and its successor Heroes & Other Worlds, I guess by default this catagory goes to AD&D. But it's not like I miss it. I mentioned recently that I wish I would've gotten ahold of Moldvay Basic instead of getting into AD&D. I really liked it at the time but there are too many rules. Maybe this is just me looking back through my current rules-lite loving filter, but hey, I can't speak for my teenaged-self anymore.
I just discoverd while googling for an image that AD&D also stands for Accidental Death and Dismemberment insurance. Come to think of it, many D&D characters could use an AD&D policy.
