<t>Yeah, I like M&M's damage system a lot, except for 1 tiny detail: accumulating Wounds only decreases future Damage Saves, not all your rolls. To me, this works for a superhero comic RPG, but for a fantasy RPG, I like characters that really feel it when they get hurt. It's got a grittier, more...

<t>Well, i've been fiddling around with this some more, and actually, a lot of stuff would have to change to accomodate the Wound rules as I listed previously. For example, Cure spells would be too powerful as written with this alternate rule. Lots of little things would need to be changed, like a B...

<t>I'm actually planning on running a C&C game via Maptool, most likely Sunday evenings at 6:30 or perhaps 7 pm EST. One glitch i've run into though -- Skype. I've got Vista on my PC, installed Skype, and my operating system went all funny on me. So, I'm thinking I'd rather use Yahoo IM for the ...

WT = your hit die (d4 o...

New to C&C .. seems built for house-rules

<t>I just got the rules and some adventure modules, and I simply adore this game, but i don't think the designers completely scrubbed the mechanics of outdated ideas. <br/> <br/> For example, and i'm sure someone's brought this up in the past, take hit points. It's never made much sense to me that a...

C&C via Maptool

<t>I'm interested in buying C&C and running some games online via Maptool, but had a question on how well a lot of the maps in the adventures for sale here can import into Maptool. Specifically, do the maps come with the grid lines already in place? Are player maps included in most adventures wh...
