Dragonlance Campaign Advice...

I'm reading WoS, and it's inspiring me to go ahead and get the DL material; only problem is, I haven't gamed in over two years. I don't know anyone now that even plays, as all of my friends are more primarily college-, chicks-, and basketball-oriented, respectively. :D

Any advice on how to get a good group together? Should I look for DL readers foremost? DnDers? Newbs entirely? I'd rather be a player, to be honest, but I'll sacrafice for the sake of it all.

In addition, I hope this isn't entirely in the wrong area...I figured that since I specifically want to start a DL campaign, it wouldn't be. Nevertheless, I won't be offended if I get deleted. ;)

Stupid bulletin board. I had a four paragraph response and it screwed up and didn't post it.

Anyways, one option is to visit a local hobby shop. They usually have boards advertising groups looking for players and vice versa. They also sometimes have roleplaying rooms where groups gather to play, an opportunity for you to see whether you want to join a particular group.

il,

I feel your pain, I really hate when that happens.

Ash,

You could post here that you are looking to start/join a game. Believe it or not, I found a player for our campaign through the boards that lives less that 1/4 mile from me. Will post link to correct board in a little bit.

Thanks for the help, guys. :D

One more question: I've got a good group of old DnDers who want to play this, but only one of them has touched DL books, and he has only read the original trilogy.

Is there a website where I might be able to download and print off a very concise summary of world events in Krynn? Even if it's just an out-of-character book summary type deal?

Just buy the first two gamebooks. You're going to want them to play anyway and they have just the summary of world events you're looking for.

Wow...I feel like a fool, and rightfully so, I imagine.

Thanks, and I'll shut up now. :D
