okay, great! hopefully we can get a group together, and make it happen. especially someone who knows the rules in & out, and can answer questions and solve problems.

It all depends on how much of 2E you want to draw from. There’s a world of difference between the early core three only, the middle kits are fine, and the late skills & powers versions of the game. Any ideas where along that spectrum you’d like the game to be? As a concept, I’d love to try 2E in Kara-Tur, but which version of the rules we’d use would be really important.

i want to come up with a good homebrew, and flexible houserules.
skills and spells from outside sources are cool, and i can share all the resources i have. the kara-tur honor system looked pretty cool and an additional element to the game, as well as creating styles of martial arts for the setting, and individuals.

maybe ways we could handle armored casting for example, we could have the different armors (non-bulky,fairly bulky, and bulky), as non weapon proficiency options for arcane casters?
without using 3e rules for this problem

I'm not a 2e guru but I'd be interested in playing. I have the Complete Ninja Handbook. :)

I'd be interested if you find a DM. I have everything on PDF and most of the books in hardbound.

No prior experience with Oriental Adventures, but a big fan of 2e and have the core set of rules and a few supplements.

Cut my teeth dming 2e, so for me it's got high nostalgic value. Never did get to enjoy it from the player side of things, though.

May have interest as a player if things get rolling.

Thx & happy gaming!

I don't think we found a DM yet, just a pile of potential players. I'm interested in 2nd E more than Kara-Tur. But I'll play either way. I have no clue how to run 2e.

Actually, per the rules of this particular forum, the only person who can run this is raygun_gothic, since they started the thread.  Nobody else can offer to run it.

i'm looking to co-DM with someone who can be a rules lawyer and i'll assist with npcs and story/quests. 2e is superior i think in most regards to all other editions. i just haven't played since 1992 lol
