This is too emotional for me to write about right now. It would be easier for me to write about my other first time, the one that is clarified against in the secondary title. I'll be back later.

As much as I am loathe to say, my first RPG was, yes, 2nd Edition AD&D. My science teacher brought a few of us in his Senior Science class together during lunch period & we created our characters, learned teamwork, strategy, ect. *sigh* Those were good times.
And yes, I eventually bought the books. I had almost all of them, but when SpellJammer & PlaneScape debuted, and WotC bought the game & redesigned it, it just wasn't the same. I soon sold or traded them off. Marvel SuperHeroes was my next, I had all of those books too....Basic & Advanced. Then they got cancelled. Fortunately, I just picked up Palladium Books' Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles & Other Strangeness. I found it refreshing from being burned out on the old hack & slash: which led to Robotech, Heroes Unltd., Rifts, Systems Failure & NightBane. But it was in 1989, when skimming through a comic shop's latest flyers, I discovered the first Shadowrun promo. It's been a wild ride ever since. |

Re-reading this thread made me realise how much I miss that old material. I'm going to trade in all my old Call of Cthulhu and SR backstock to a place for store credit, but I'll keep the SR4 books. I've already got Dragon #148 (Deck of Many Things) and #200 (killer cover), plus the collected Snarfquest volumes. Ah, can't wait....

Just wanted to give some free advertising to the game store I mentioned. It's called Compleat Stategist, but back when I first found it, the name was Strategy & Fantasy World. It is located in Falls Church, VA. This store has been around since 1974. A fairly small, bare bones rpg store, and very dear to my heart. Drop by and spend some cash.
