Edited: Some of our party got lost last week, but we've rechecked our maps and are back on track with Tim Kask live this Sunday Apr-25 (for real). Updated event link below.
FYI: We've got Tim Kask -- editor of all the OD&D supplements after Greyhawk, inaugural editor of Dragon Magazine, recently wrote for Gygax magazine, etc. -- on our D&D talk show, this Sunday at 1 PM ET. We have live viewer chat running concurrently, and usually manage to take some questions from there and pose them to our guests. Looking forward to this!

And if you have any keen questions for Tim, post them here and I'll try to work them into our talk Sunday.

This is awesome. I guess I would like to know his opinion on the current state of the hobby.

I probably won't be around for the live stream to ask this question, but I'd like to know what Tim considers the thing about OD&D that sets it apart as its own thing, as opposed to the AD&D era. In other words, what specific quality of early D&D would he consider unique or proprietary to that era? |

I would like to ask what is his house rules!  And I would ask him about Chainmail too. I mean, what he thinks about Chainmail combat in OD&D. |

I think it can also include whether there is a hard distinction (I think folks like Ernie Gygax, Frank Mentzer, etc. look at it as a continuous game). I've put that in the script right now, thank you for that! |

And I can safely say that because they're basically questions #2 and #3 that I already had in my script for tomorrow. :-) (Although even that's no guarantee, sometime we fly off in some crazy direction we didn't expect and never get back.) |
