ive never GMed/ DMed before, and many of the people i play with have suggested different games for me to run, now, im good with improvising but they said to stick to a premade campaign for the first time, to get into the feel of things and not having to worry as much about story. many games were suggested and for me it came down to two (after much debate) weather to run a pre-made warhammer fantasy RP or to run (the start section of) worlds largest dungeon (3.5 ed d&d)
the reason im not sure between these two is that worlds largest is very definate from my point of view, they may be able to go many different ways but at the end of the day its all written down what happens in which room kind of thing (yes i know worlds largest is absolutely massive and i would never get through it realistically, thats why i would only use the starting few maps to make it shorter, comeing back to it later is also a possibility), where as wfrp, its pre-made adventures are a much more mixture of combat and roleplay opposed to worlds largest, which is alot more on combat, wfrp also has a nice feel to it anyway, its very dark and gritty, and i enjoy playing wfrp very much and i feel as if i know its system slightly better, where as there feels to be alot more rules to d&d 3.5 where i can miss alot out easily without realising.
i would like other peoples oppinions on this, and any other possible roleplays are welcome too. and thanks in advance
