Troll Lord Games

Is there support for play of Castles and Crusades in a purely medieval setting, with bare minimum magical content if not zero magic? I tried searching the forums and it didn't seem to like me searching for 'no magic.' Not sure if there is but the idea has a certain appeal. It caused me to remember ...

I've not run a campaign in HârnWorld but it is tempting. I'd need to house rule some things with regard to magic as C&C is a bit too high fantasy for the setting, IMO.

Select a spell for the entire adventure .... Wow that DOES limit the cleric's abilities !

Emphasis mine.
Indeed. Unnecessarily so, IMO.

Arnbjorn, human cleric of the Norse pantheon with preference for Odin and Thor, 4th level at the time the campaign ended.

Happy ChristmaHannuKwanziFest!

Hopefully all wereturkeys were slain with no injuries sustained.

Resnick immediately tended to his fallen companions. By the grace of Ealor and applications of sea salt, wounds were closed and lives saved. The ranger who had been absent during the fight (player missed the session) returned to the Empty Flagon. He had been the first to run out and face the attacke...

I enjoyed the Grail series and 1356. Cornwell does his research and breathes life into the setting and cultures.

I just started getting into the Richard Sharpe novels by Bernard Cornwell. Great stuff! I'm a sucker for these too. Classic literature no, but good rousing adventure stories yes! Also the BBC show staring Sean Bean as Sharpe are great fun as well. I enjoyed Cromwell's Grail Quest Series comprised o...

Whassssuuupppp

Hello. How are you?

I definitely prefer the forums.

Rif and Gritznak attacked each other but, at the early going, neither could get past the other's shield. Short Shanks ran up to stab the blinded goblin and kobolds who desperately fought back. A goblin and a kobold were put down fairly easily before the last kobold managed a wicked stab to Short Sha...

John Wright aka Seskis passed away early this morning from a blood clot. He was a great GM and an even better person.

Damn.
I have fond memories of his C&C adventure, The Ziggurat of Zon, in which we played at Gary Con VII. He was a very nice and polite man.

A short while after the characters' heads found their pillows, but still well before dawn, commotion outside The Empty Flagon awoke them. From their respective vantage points, the party members could see that many goblins and kobolds were scurrying about breaking windows, kicking in doors, and firin...

The party faction with Eribus and Rif reached Malforten in an uneventful manner at dusk after two days. Ulrich, who went south, was not there to see them arrive. The party, somewhat restored through the healing prayers of Resnick, made for The Empty Flagon to have hot meals and much ale. Though the ...

Thanks!

None of the players had played C&C before this campaign. They've really gotten into their characters and C&C.

None recently... but I sure am thinking about opening up Pandemic for a few games!

Myself and The Better Half played 4 games of Pandemic over the last week. We managed to save the world 3 times and came up 1 turn short of winning a 4th game.

The party traveled until they found a place to hide and set up watches. When the party was settled, Rif, greatly angered over now being bound by a promise to Unklar made on his behalf, punched Vulrog who immediately passed out. Eribus and Menlaus remained quiet. Kiint, the helpful 0-level NPC with t...

Backed this one. Between this and Codex Egyptium I'll have a nice bit of gaming goodness coming my way.

While I can appreciate the thoughts and efforts, it is just not the same. Computer gaming is not my cup o' tea.

So I have a nice leather bound PH and M&T mega book. Pleased with both.

I hope to do the same for the CKG, I also hope they give the option for high cotton content, no gloss, paper.

What does the cover of the leather M&T look like? The image on the TLG store site is the standard cover...

As of now GCXII is still ON. Assuming it remains so, who still plans to attend?

EDIT: Nevermind. GCXII has been cancelled. https://garycon.com/gary-con-xii-cancel ... mtocifS7UE

The lone conscious PC, and barely that at 0 hit points, is Vulrog, a once dandy looking dwarf paladin. As Vulrog and his loyal henchman, Kiint, a former leper whom Vulrog cured, discussed their predicament, they heard a clearing of the throat noise from down the hallway where sixteen goblins very re...

I didn't respond as I don't yet own a copy of M&T 5th printing. There is a strong possibility I'll pick up a copy at Gary Con...

Hopefully the boards will not completely fade. I really don't want to do FB or other social media for C&C goodness.

As one of the unlucky bastages who was relocated to the Fairfield Inn this year for GaryCon, I have decided to cancel my C&C games for the con. I'm still going, but this year I'll be sticking to being just a player. Hopefully I will still get some pick-up games this year. Looks like we're both in t...

Don joined us two years ago. Andy joined about six months ago. Devin joined about two months ago. Th...

This thread will be for sharing the goings on in my local gaming group, The Barons of Bellevue.
