To write about everything would take up a large book... like TSR and WotC does. Also, the word "campaign" implies a larger storyline for characters. If all your doing is dungeon crawls and self exploration, I would classify you under the Penny Ante campaigns. Which even the author implies is possible, but not really an emersive story. You poor bastich. Joe, the title of the article uses the word “popular”, not “all inclusive” or “only”. To write about everything would take up a large book… like TSR and WotC does.

Man, I've seen D&D used for good old Dungeon Crawls and Exploration to basic Arena Combats. You poor bastich. Remember the beer and pretzels opportunities of the game and don't get too enwashed in stories to remember your not always playing the poor farm boy saving the world. 3 types?

Sorry I haven't been posting in awhile. I've moved a little out of the shadow of D&D since 4e came out. I've started doing play by post free form Role Playing and, I like it. I still play D&D but we just house rule everything. Well, there's one thing that hasn't changed. I just ramble on and on like any good brass dragon. Back to where I started. I like the article and I'll keep all this in mind, I hope to use some of this soon. Or something along these lines. Yes, very nice article. Sorry I haven’t been posting in awhile.

They can be Epic, Regional or Penny-Ante. I think that’s a great summary of all of the games that I’ve run or playing in. Of course, they go into much more detail than I just did, so go check them out.
