Troll Lord Games

Hello, fellow C&C fans. I hope you and your loved ones are in good health in good spirit. After years of roleplaying I decided to try my hand as a game master and because I have class :P as a Castle Keeper. I intend to use discord and Roll20 and The Rising Knight module. I am looking for advice ...

Great, so I guess for calculating XP value I need to add the value for level of spells in categories I - 1-3d level, II - 4-7 lvl, III - 8-9 lvl.

If there is anything in C&C I am not satisfied with that is dragons. I admit D&D 3.5 is to blame. There older dragons are quite the spellcasters. The C&C dragon cannot compare. So how would you make more magical dragons. I was thinking of using the Powers system from the Book of Powers f...

I have been reading through the Amazing Adventures books and have found a lot of which I'd like to port to a C&C game. The mentalist class, the fate dice mechanic, the character generation process, the sorcerer minus the corruption and either backgrounds + knowledge skills or the skill system fr...

Thanks for the answer, soloplayer!

So, we don't have rules for classes in the APB as supporting classes. Also, if a martial class takes supporting spellcasting class, will the character have problems for casting in armor?

So, I saw that "Fantastic Adventure" is one of the oldest modules, one that actually predates C&C. Has anyone ran or played it? What can be said about it?

I saw warlocke class. funny thing is I have seen it somewhere maybe on dragonsfoot and later - poof! It's gone. I guess now I know why - it was withdrawn from the site.

Now, there is a book to come, ADventurer's Spellbook. IT will comply spells from a lot of sources and it will give us the missing runes. ALL of them.

Thanks, for the info, Buttmonkey, I know about the phone edition.

Cool! Personally, I would have maed Robin Hood archer, supported by rogue

Found it. Looks cool. I need to read the instructions thorougly. Do you have the races on some form of document, pdf or doc?

Is the portal working well these days? Is it worth to get it on trial and continue later?

Runes, yeah. Finally! Also the NPC almanac is turning quite good, funding wise. Fingers crossed all is well!

I love this system and was thinking what can be done. Take Conan - take barbarian with supporting class rogue and you are done! Also Elric of Melnibone or Kain the Mystic Swordsman - ethereal knight with supporting class wizard. What are your iconic characters you wish to make with these optional ru...

Welcome to the community! In my games, i'm pretty much running AD&D 2nd ed as well, but with the C&C Siege mechanics. I have found it works quite well, so i don't see it wouldn't work for Firestorm Peak or the Player's Option series. So find yourself a copy and go for it. :) -Fizz But arent...

Thank you. I'm glad to be here. I'd like to enjoy the game, but I have a player burnout and after that I will have to proselytize about the glory of C&C to players used to D&D 5E. I hope I will be successful. I have the Beacon adventure and Shadows of the Halfling Hall - so I can introduce t...

Sounds cool, Lurker!

I am quite late for the party, but I hope you can see this. MAgic is governed by points (AEEP) generated by the Speed Attribute, not sure about the mechanic, but it was speed rating *4. You can basically cast every spell (and augment it in some way with extra AEEP), but stronger spells require more ...

I had the pelasure to read LA Essentials - the rules. I must say, it all sounds really, really cool. It is sad that the actual book cannot be found digitally. Has anyone got them? Also has anyone actually played this. LAst but not least, seeing the abilites, I was thinking fo incorproating the descr...

Scorpion King - the sequel. The second "Beastmaster", "Red Sonja"!

Still, I find the second and third movie to be delightful.

What is this book exactly?

Cool! What was the story? I haven't played in tournaments (We don't have them here). Do these tournament scenarios have much in the way of story at all?

I remember there was an alchemist class for OSRIC, but I don't know if classes can be converted.

My favourite monster is the rakshasa (hate what D&D 5E did to them on all fronts). Has anyone used them as villains and how?

Thanks for the pointers! I was hesitant, because I've read that the module was made to be used with the "Player's Options"s series. But I see it ca ngo both ways - vanilla AD&D 2E and PO!

Hello, gals and guys! First post here. I am excited to be a part of this civil and gregarious community! Soo, I am a sucker for all things Far Realm and huge fan of C&C. Has anyone run "Gates of Firestorm Peak" under C&C? Impressions ,guidelines and tips would be much appreciated!....
