any of you guys remember playing those old ravenloft games? or perhaps menzoberanzen? I really loved that style of gaming, and its too oldschool for the newer generation of games.


good stuff.

All you have to do is make the vampires sparkle, and you've got the new generation... lol...

I personally LOVED the Darksun games :) That was probably my favorite setting of the D&D stuff.

Ravenloft Rules

Yet another reason to have all the Goldbox games here. Only time will tell.

I hope GOG is working hard on being able to provide a satisfying Vampire promo in the near future (maybe make good for this year's Halloween sale next year?). To complement Redemption, BloodRayne and the available Legacy of Kain games, we'd still need Ravenloft, Blood Omen, Bloodlines (and maybe Veil of Darkness and A Vampyre Story?). And also Forgotten Realms Unlimited Adventures, so they could make a combined NWN/FRUA feature about Ravenloft & Vampire modules. ;)

I'm another Ravenloft fan here. I actually had a DM who ran a Castlevania style'd Ravenloft campaign (with obvious change such as Strahd rather than Dracula, etc...). I love the whole classical Gothic setting and the traditional horror feel. I like Ravenloft so much, on top of having the books, when I found out they were releasing a D&D board game I was almost first in line to get it! ^_^ I have been tempted to run Ravenloft in Pathfinder. Only trouble is getting a DM since I suck at DMing, and a group.

Excellent bundle :)

Still have that bundle - Even Al-Qadim was fun

Yeah, and if I was an exec at Hasbro I would be working crazy overtime to get the entire SSI D&D catalog re-released.

Ravenloft: Strahd's Possession was the second D&D based CRPG game I played after Menzoberranzan.

It got me hooked on the Ravenloft setting.

I'm actually doing Ravenloft games on mondays for a group of teens at a youth center close to where I live.

Has or does anyone own or play this? Cause I've been thinking about getting it for some time.

I've been wondering the same about all the Dungeons & Dragons board games. Any thoughts would be great!

AD&D, I'm old school.

Doing it with teens gives me another perspective.

My friends (who are around my age) do fewer crazy things and generally play smarter, but they are also more jaded and less impressionable.

I think horror works best on younger minds.

Ah, good man while I'm a Pathfinder fan, I do enjoy AD&D more in some situations over 3rd/3.5ed.

Ah nice, yeah, I am happy to say I do some batshit crazy things still when I play games. For example my character kicking an rather pissed off orc in the crotch. :P

Yeah, plus it has a real Hammer studios/Stoker/Shelly/Lovecraft feel to it as well. Which are among my favourite takes on horror in many regards.
