I read through Dark Dungeons a couple times and I liked a lot of it, the lack of level limits, the skill system and the immortal rules really stood out, but I like my basic game to be basic so I toss it in with BECMI and RC as too complicated to fit my "basic" gaming style.

I also like the old red/blue Moldvay books, but Im gonna take a look at this.

yes i am also like this .....but the lack of level limits skill system really nice.....

If anything, his houserules of the skills make the system better than the ones in BECMI which could end up replacing a thief with any other character with enough skills and the right skill choices. That isn't possible in Dark Dungeons which is a huge bonus in my books.

I was not aware of that. It seems like a nice way to make a Conan-like reaver/slayer/thief character.

One really odd change in Darker Dungeons is the "reversal" of Magic-Users and Elves - that is, elves become the squishy casters and MUs become the armor clad tough-guys.

Cool, human spellswords and wimpy elves...finally.
