Details of your scenario: My current group is looking for additional steady players. We're experimenting with the idea of using one-off adventures ("short-shots"?) as a recruitment tool. We will try people out with some of our other players without affecting the regular campaign and it's storyline, and add them into the game after the new player has experienced our style of play, and our existing players are confident we've found a good match. In the meantime, we're giving the community members who might not otherwise play AD&D 2E a chance to try this version out, and/or give players who aren't sure they can make a commitment to a regular campaign a chance to play.
Each Friday night at this time there may be a game playing and a seat open. I call it a "short-shot" because it may take more than one session, but there's no real expectation that the same characters will be used from one adventure to the next - it depends on what adventure our DMs have available to play. Some of this content will be uniquely homebrew, but some may be purchased commercial content, so players interested in RP are strongly encouraged since you may need to feign ignorance about the plot. Also, there is no guarantee we'll get around to combat if the story doesn't take us there. PM for questions.
