What DnD class would indy be?

[Grimdiana Bones]

Anyone out there who plays DnD, what class do you think indy would be?

I think he would have to have some rogue for his knowledge of traps and high reflex save :p

[intergamer]

NPC Mercenary?

otherwise rogue

What is DnD?

[Joe Brody]

What is DnD?

Attempt to look cool by feigning ignorance?

Sound it out . . . D & D . . . . Dungeons & Dragons.

Proud former player here. Although, sadly, it was so long ago that it was before 'Rogues' What is that, some sort of thief/ranger?

[Grimdiana Bones]

rogue is the new P.C. name for a thief :p

They are trying to make the classes more versatile.

Oh yeah! I remember that, my older brother used to play that when I was a kid, I loved the illistrations in the books, luckly I did not suffer from the same advirse to lilght affliction as my brother and his freinds had so I could enjoy the sunlight . . .

Actually I take that last statement back, I am only jealous that I my group of friends were in to skating and music and not DnD, we picked up more chicks then, but the DnD guys make the $$$ 20 years later, so game on I guess

I don't know what you mean when you say "adverse to light affliction"??? I was always out swimming biking and camping during those years.

Yet another vampire reference in relation to Joe??? Hmmm. Seems like a trend. http://www.indygear.com/cow/images/smiles/eusa_think.gif


Hey Joe, if you're not adverse to PC games, the Baldur's Gate games are a good way to do D&D without the hassle.

My only exposure to PC games is loading my daughter's games (Barbie Mermaid -- in my best Hannibal Lechter: 'Love those rainbow dolphins', Dr. Seuess and Little Nemo games.) I don't see how any game could capture the freedom and randomness of D&D. I wouldn't start this now but are there people that play D&D online?

Thanks for the timely topic progression.

This is attention I don't need. The member vying for true vampire status here is Colonel Vogel -- check out his member photo which I think is of Vlad the Impaler. Although Bram Stoker was also a member of the Unpopular Profession. . . . .

Well, there are plenty of MMORPGs, but I'm not an expert on D&D. My interest was very casual. I've never done any RPG stuff other than computer games. And now, time doesn't allow even that.

All right, all right... I'll put down the stake... :)

Joe you have no idea, really, no idea at all . . . 15 to 23 were some scary times for this Indy fan

True I spent a lot of time in my friends basement drinking soda and getting pale.... BUT WHO DIDNT??? :confused: :p

[roundshort]

I didn't really, ever, but I do love my indy movies

Although my knowledge of D&D is very limited, I'd also have to say Rogue.

Never was much into D&D,but I did have the Indiana Jones game that TSR did back in like,1985 or whenever it was.

I always saw that at my local hobby shop, but never shelled out the cash for it. I'd really like to go through and read it now, mainly because I have a hard time seeing how they will make an open ended RPG about indy. Has anyone played it, or read it that can enlighten me? :confused:

[Junior Jones]

The game is not so much about Indiana Jones himself. It's intended to take place in the world of Indiana Jones.

I haven't played it, but I have the source book. It's got a lot of information about the time period, weapons, vehicles, travel, etc.

The character templates included solider, adventurer, singer, pilot, professor, and a bunch of others I'm not remembering now.

At one point the book suggests using Indiana Jones only sparingly in your adventures as a non-player character.

Thanks! That actually sounds really fun. I might have to pick up one of the books on Ebay and check it out.

[TombReader]

Pretty much what JJ said.I don't recall there being too much insight into Indy's life or his past in any of the material that I read(which I admit was limited).I'm sure that RPG's nowadays are much more in-depth.

I love dnd I want to start playing again......... Damn computer MMO's killed the table top roleplaying :down:
