Retro Fantasy: WOTC Dungeons & Dragons 3.x
Discussions of 3.0 and 3.5 editions of Dungeons & Dragons published by WOTC. This system dominated the fantasy roleplaying market from about 2000 to 2008 when WOTC replaced it in June 2008 with a new and mostly incompatible 4th edition of D&D and completely dropping support for the 3.x edition. While disliked by many who prefer older TSR editions, D&D 3.x has a large following who have no plans to move to an incompatible D&D 4. Fortunately, the OGL means that third party support need never end.
