If youre interested in DnD, you will need to obtain a copy of the players handbook and familairise yourself with the rules. If you're unable to buy a copy then you can check out the SRD document which contains basically the same information.

System Resource Document (http://www.opengamingfoundation.org/srd.html)

If you're opposed to reading large quantities, then roleplaying online might not be your kind of thing...

Confused about what? I'm sorry but if you aren't a bit more precise it will be difficult to help you. :)

what does the book look like and what's the title?
`Metalhead`
24th of March, 2003, 06:28
its not a handbook i know now...and it just says rule book in bold letters with DND at the top and some stuff under the Rule Book part

Edit: i also realize that the box didnt have the Handbook in it
BigRedRod

ok
if it came in a box
what did the box look like?
`Metalhead`
24th of March, 2003, 07:53
The thing is grey and it says Rule Book and its paperback
BigRedRod
24th of March, 2003, 07:58
So it didn't come in a box?

Ack why are you being so evasive?
`Metalhead`
24th of March, 2003, 08:02
i dont have the handbook and it didnt come with the box
BigRedRod
24th of March, 2003, 08:08
hmmm
I think it could be the 3e starter set which I've never seen the interior of
So I can't really say

All I know is it's a simplified version of 3e
Does it look much like the SRD you were pointed at bofore?
or does it mention THAC0 anythwhere?
`Metalhead`
24th of March, 2003, 08:09
Ill check

Edit: the box says DnD: Adventure Game. and i didnt see any TACHO
BigRedRod
24th of March, 2003, 08:11
thanks
if you see the classes being listed with a THAC0 it's an old edition :(
if not and there is stuff like BAB , then you have yourself a copy of the starter rules for 3e :)
BigRedRod
24th of March, 2003, 08:15
sounds like you have got yourself the basic 3e rules
good job
learn those
then read the SRD

then I think you should be ready for anything :)

24th of March, 2003, 08:17
