Yeah, we are 3.5, but I just say 3. I am all rogue too, but MarkiX can't DM me, I just get around everything and he has to have backup story plans and stuff lol. So I decided to put that complex thinking into DMing... sadly I can't use my full potential because its hard enough for them to figure out stuff now :P

I mainly do hack~n~slash because my friend and cousin are new and markix is fairly new... as I to 3.5(I use to play 2ed). This is a way for us to learn how character development works and what is best for what. We haven't used a grid, but I plan to. Soon my cousin will have area spells and such will be going on, I need to know where everyone is and what they are doing. The hardest thing about DMing is finding out what creatures will be perfect, not to hard and not to easy and I have to do it in advance, so I have to figure out what lvl they will be when they get there. Now that they are higher level, it will slow down making it easier for me.
