Can I get a tl;dr on what's known about the game?
Have you played Oblivion With Guns? It's going to be worse than that.

You get to have a tadpole in your brain that lets you do freaky things. You also get to choose between the man with many cheeses, and hot walnuts.Can I get a tl;dr on what's known about the game?
Yeah, grappling rules are so intricated it's almost hard to believe it isn't just an inside joke ended up in the handbook by accident. However, AD&D has its fair share of needlessly intricate/obscure/specific rules. I mean, there are tables like this one:What do you mean by "bloated"?3 and 3.5 were pretty fucking shit to play as actual tabletop games though. Way too bloated. There are better, more elegant systems. 3.5 works best when a computer keeps track of everything.
Both 3.x and AD&D 2 are "bloated" in their own ways.

It's extremely hard to actually pay attention to this stuff at the table.
Both editions are convoluted in their own ways, it's just a matter of which convolutedness you don't mind that much.
You're dead. Your brain is replaced with the mindflayer.Like we've discussed before, you turn into a vegetable after several hours of being infected with the tadpole and then die completely. You don't have weeks. It takes a week for your dead body to transform into a mindflayer, sure, but that's different.
You don't die at all, Mindflayers aren't a form of Undead.
It is expansion to DOS 2.Can I get a tl;dr on what's known about the game?
I don't usually write "I fixed it for you", but I fixed it for you.HERESY!!! There is no D&D after3.5the demise of TSR in 1997. Burn the witch!

There's no D&D after Gary Gygax left TSR in 1986.
Fuck Chainmail, if you aren't playing chess are you even playing?I'm partial to Chainmail myself tbh. D&D was decline from the start.
This is a trick, nobody knows how to play backgammon.fuck chess if you aren't playing backgammon why even play?
It was so inclined peasant minds couldn't handle it, so it died out due to non-inclined humans.It wasn't that good, otherwise, why would have they stopped playing it 4000 years ago ?
So it will have 6 million bugz?Larian is literally Hitler and Baldur's Gate 3 is literally the holocaust.
Can't find it, do you have a link?Stadia conference revealed nothing.
There were plenty of miniature wargames rules before Chainmail, covering a wide variety of historical conflicts. Chainmail's innovation was adding fantasy elements to the game. It's been decline eve since.The predecessor to Chainmail wasn't Chess it was either fencing/medieval reenactors or massive miniatures ala Warhammer but with no rules.
