Troll Lord Games

Need your help, here, folks. This thing's moving WAY too slow. Pop in! Back it! Talk it up on the KS comments list! Share the link with everyone you know!

I know this is probably not what you meant by your reply, but I would not be opposed to a Jason Vey rewrite of the C&C rules with the same amount of time, energy, and love you put into Revised AA. Just saying... Just saying. ~O Nope. I'm not touching the core C&C rules. Those are all Steve,...

Jason, I like it! But, I will it is not balanced with C&C Classes. This class is far more powerful than the Paladin. JLL I disagree and would encourage you to playtest it before making that call. There's a mathematical formula that goes into building the XP progressions for these. That being sa...

Two things, though most of them are not helpful to the point of this thread: One, I bet we could get a kickass game of a cyberpunk-style AA game up at the Side Quest. Model it somewhat off the old Shadowrun Missions system. Alas, there needs to be more support for that style of Amazing Adventures I...

Hey, all, The new corebook has been revised, updated and expanded across the board. There is intro fiction to set the tone of the book, but even not counting the intro fiction the book is about 20,000 words longer than it was before, and it's all new material. The most obvious change is that all err...

Hey, folks, in case you missed the news, our new Kickstarter for Brimstone and the Borderhounds is live! I wrote this one as well, and it's 100% compatible with Amazing Adventures. It's got a number of new classes, a few that are from AA but have been tweaked/improved, new rules for wielding the pow...

Okay, folks, as a way to say thanks for your loyalty and just to say "Happy Halloween," we present a new free character class for AA: the Demon Hunter! Enjoy!!!

That's ok. It had nothing to do with Amazing Adventures. And I learned a lot more about the game. I still have a C&C game running at Immortals Inc., and down the road I may run one that combines C&C with some of the classes from AA. Jason put a lot in the companion book about how to do that...

So I'm away from my home computer without any gaming supplies and want to run a game of Amazing Adventures for some gamers I met. I picked up the PDF "bundle" the other day so I can access my rulebooks electronically, but most of my other resources are not where I can get ahold of them. D...

I got your back. I think it's a sticky now.

Thanks! Weird that I can't do it. I'm actually a full Admin on the boards. When I look in my permissions it says I have the permissions to do it, but the option doesn't appear anywhere.

Bumping (again, can't sticky--frustrating!)

Just bumping this back to the top. Oddly I can't sticky posts anymore. I've still got the rights, but the option has vanished. Something seems to be off in the board settings.

That's a really nice compliment, but I'd never suggest that C&C be overhauled to incorporate AA. Rather, I like to think that people who own both can easily adopt whatever they like from AA and dump it right into their C&C games with little to no adaptation necessary. What adjustments do nee...

You could also adopt the pregen iconics in the new revised core book

We had a character roll up last Saturday. Six players made characters. Our next game is coming up this Saturday and I'm going to run them through a homebrew adventure set on the California coast in 1987. Five people should be coming to the game. We're ending at 9pm so we can stay at the bar and wat...

I have not considered AA as a total replacement of C&C, but I will draw heavily on both AA and Victorious to flesh out my fantasy game. I like the Gumshoe and Raider character classes. I also like the Mentalist class, which I am modifying into three versions based on each mental attribute, (Wis...

Hey, all, I posted this in the errata thread at the top but wanted to catch everyone's attention here, too. In the Rise of the Red God mini-campaign, the map of the Temple of the Red God was inadvertently replaced with a blowup of the Voodoo temple from part 2. Here is a low-res image file (smaller ...

Most of the original Conan stories are short stories, not full-length novels. Have you checked out the AA Companion? I've got discussions in there for Swords and Sorcery, 16th-17th century swashbuckling (a la Kane), weird westerns, Victorian horror, and weird tales. The magic system gets a complete...

Yeah, sorry, I somehow completely overlooked your thoughts about monsters as PCs. I really think Koralas nailed it. My suggestions would be right in line with his, save that Centaurs wouldn't work very well as ferals since they'd have a tough time with the whole "Swinging through trees" bi...

When I look at tweaking C&C rules, I view AA like an extension of the CKG. The CKG offers a lot of ways to tinker under the hood and modify what you want. I look at AA that way for my C&C game. My buddy Jason put a lot of golden nuggets in AA that are fun ports over to my C&C game. It's...

Great! Glad to hear it! If you haven't already check out my Facebook and Twitter accounts!

And keep us updated!

Also, I'm maintaining errata threads at the top of the forum. Check them for the latest updates.

I'd recommend for what you want to do, to pick up the C&C Castle Keeper's Guide, if you haven't already. The current edition of AA is 100% compatible with C&C and the Companion includes guidelines for mixing the two. The CKG, then, has pretty detailed sections on creating new races for your ...

Sounds cool! Hope you'll keep us updated on the goings-on!

I disliked a few things about the original; I have updated the map. If you grabbed a copy prior to this post, go back and get it again. I've included all the found errata for Day of the Worm in the Errata thread at the top of the page. I've also linked to both my original reference map and this tru...

WOW, Nice!!!

In the worm module there is a map on page five that I assume is the map of a Tomb. The problem is, the map doesn't seem to match the description of the Tomb on page 8. Some of it does but I just want to verify which side is the entrance and which room contains the "stairwell going deeper into ...

Ugh. Found a number of errata all on one page in the Companion. Mostly typos and layout stuff, but it's still a bit embarrassing. I'll get it posted up later this afternoon.
