As I would assume most of you were aware, or I would hope you were, the escapist held a raffle [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/93101-Five-500-USD-Gift-Certificates-from-SciFiGenre]. now here comes the bragging part, you see someone in this thread one one of the prizes. Can't figure it out? Heres a clue; me.
Okay so heres the help part, I didn't really enter expecting to win. I entered because I thought it would be nice to win but I didn't really think I would. Because of that I don't really have much to buy. Some is going towards some comics my brother has recommended to me, some is going to my brother under a certain arrangement, but I have about $90 left, now that's if I get all the comics , and if I get the things for my brother, as I have not actually been given any code or a physical card (yes I did win, the email with the line, "winner: yes" was a give away)
So I came upon the idea to buy some game that could be played with my friends. One game I've always had a slight interest in trying was DnD. Now I'm not interested in anyone telling me not to play, as I haven't convince anyone to play, and I'm not going to buy anything without a guarantee that it will be used. What I need help with is knowing what to get, supposing I get it, I would like to have some idea. Now I did search this and got another old thread with a similar request but most of the answers were fairly vague and the ones that weren't didn't remember there are 3 or so versions of the same book, and with the ability to actually look at a list of items, I'm asking you spend a minute and help me.
If you need to know anything go ahead and ask, if I play it will be with 5 people plus DM and no one has played, so just take that into account.
Also, for a third time, thank you spin. Without you, this gloat/plea would have been impossible.
