Anyone playing 2nd edition? The reason I ask is I have a players handbook, DM guide, and Monstrous Manual, all 2nd edition. I haven’t played in many years but would like to get back into it. Any resources out there for 2nd edition players? Any recommendations would be helpful.
My gaming group is kicking around going back to 2nd ed. right now. We all like how 5E did the classes but none of us really care for these long adventure paths. We've all been playing since the early 80's and prefer the old 32 page modules from back in the day. I've been trying to find 3rd party modules to play with 5e, but the quality seems lacking in the ones Ive looked at.
DMSGuild has a ton of old modules that you can buy-some I believe are 2e. And many of the old modules are available together with separate conversion stuff to allow play under 5e. I’m awaiting the old A1-4 set from 1e that I’d like to run with the 5e conversion. Good memories from my high school years back in the day.

Thanks for the good info. I’ll check it out! 2e in high school? Now you’re giving your age away. Sounds like Stranger Things. :)

If you're looking for 2e resources, Dragonsfoot has a 2e forum that is still active: https://www.dragonsfoot.org/forums/viewforum.php?f=2
Pages and pages of discussion there.
Thanks Robbie!! Looks like a great resource. I’m checking it out now. Appreciate the help! :)
on a side note, has anyone heard of DriveThruRPG.com ?

Lol. I started with the Basic Set with the Keep on the Borderlands. I was away for 30+ years. Bumming now that I realize what I missed all that time.
