Back in The Day, when I played games like these, I was much more into 40K and Car Wars, and less into the role playing side of things. But the posts and podcasts have made me remember how much I enjoyed dice-based, tabletop gaming and I’d really like to give D&D a try, either as a player or as a DM.

When I was younger and actually playing these games, I always preferred to run them, be the GM. I guess that way I could never suffer the lows of losing but the flip side was I never got the highs of winning. So, part of me would love to be just a player now, but if I have to run things myself to make it happen, that’s fine too. I dreamed of becoming a proper DM. Maybe I’ll get there, albeit 20 years late.

I also think this would be something awesome to get Ben and Jessica into, something fun for us to share. Clearly they’re years away from it currently but the years tick past quickly enough, so perhaps I should start preparing now.
