Sense of Humor Required Game

<t>We're playing a rules-lite, have fun, laugh out loud, slightly silly old school game of C&C right over here in this IC thread. We've got four great players right now, but I'd like to have another one or two.<br/> <br/> It's pbp, so the main thing is to post at least five posts a week, hopeful...

<t>I'm currently leading towards a 16/11 DC split on saves and a 15/10 split on everything else. Put another way, a base 16 target DC on saves and +5 with prime attributes, with a 15 target DC on everything else and +5 with primes.<br/> <br/> If I was giving the PCs more than 3d6 rolls for their att...

So far just two seemingly serious applicants after posting notes about the game here and on two major pbp websites (rpg.net and myth-weavers.com). Might have to cancel it if I can't get a group together ... (come on, join )

I haven't even played the game yet, but my first thought when I read the rules was ... hm ... maybe these should be lowered by 2 points each to 16 and 10.

But it's the non-primes that are the bigger problem, I take it.

Fantastic, thank you. I guess I can have my players use a file-sharing site and upload their pdfs there.

Editable pdf Character Sheets? Online?

The thread title says it all. It would be great to have this for my online game so PCs could share their sheets with each other. Anyone know of any such thing?

(fingers crossed)

Saving Throws: Harsh?

<t>Howdy all, I'm new to the rules and I'm looking at the DCs needed for saves and ... I haven't seen OD&D in a while, but was it this tough to save? Most characters will have just two prime abilities, and a +1 or a +2 bonus to a stat if they're lucky.<br/> <br/> So a 2nd level wizard against a ...

<t>I'm thinking about running it as a game with a sense of humor. I wonder if that could work? I wrote up the following as a start-up for a game that could go in any number of directions (I like to see the character backgrounds and motivations before deciding which direction to take a campaign) ...<...

New pbp game is recruiting

<r>Hello all, I'm new to C&C, but I like the sound of it, so I'm just gonna go ahead with running a pbp game. I've been looking for a light system that would work well in a pbp format.<br/> <br/> Here's the ad: <URL url="http://www.myth-weavers.com/showthread.php?t=49623">http://www.myth-weavers...

Thanks very much. And the game involves rolling 3d6 for attributes, is that right? Do you roll six times and then assign them where you want them?

What are the Races and Classes?

<t>Hi, as you can tell I'm brand new to C&C. I'm thinking about running a pbp game with it, though, as it sounds like the rules and combat are fairly light and fun.<br/> <br/> Until I get my game book (tried to order the pdf with rpgnow last night, but their website was wonky), what are the race...
