Play the 3.5e adaptations of the AD&D adventures based on the Dragonlance Chronicles, the original three books that started it all - Dragons of Autumn Twilight, Dragons of Winter Night, Dragons of Spring Dawning, with an original company (as in: not the cannonical heroes of the books) of 'Innfellows' who will in time, perhaps, come to be known as the Heroes of the Lance!
Ownership of the Dragonlance Campagin Setting book, and the War of the Lance DCS supplement book is encouraged, but not required.
Some knowledge of the Dragonlance Setting, either through some of the novels, or otherwise, is required, however.
