Troll Lord Games

<t>I was thinking about a critical hit system where on a roll of natural 20, a character does regular rolled damage but forces the opposing character to make a Physical/Con save vs. (18/12 + damage caused). If failed the creature is dazed in pain and looses it's next action.<br/> <br/> I was basical...

Quick question. Where can you order this from?

At the risk of sounding totally out of the loop...what is XXXI and where can I find information on it.

<t>I think the major draw for me is in supporting a business model I agree with. It's sort of like supporting your FLGS over Wal-mart. Yeah I pay more for the "commons" like orcs and skeletons(though if I'm actually buying the random packs, I'm paying about the same.). But, I'm not paying exorbant p...

<r>Hey, Treebore and anyone els whose interested...Reaper announced the release date for these is August 6th.<br/> <br/> Some pictures can be found at their website, as well as the contest winners...I wasn't one of them... <br/> Here's the link to the pics...<br/> <URL url="http://www.reapermini.com...

<t>I downloaded it, and had told a new player to read it before joining in our game next weekend...only now it's gone. Just wondering why?<br/> <br/> I guess I could see the Trolls not wanting it available befor free rpg day...Was it a mistake putting it up this early?<br/> <br/> Anyway, just wanted...

Liked it all the way up to the point where I discovered Iron Kingdoms, then I realized what I was really looking for.

<t>Try Gamers Paradise in century mall. The guys there are pretty cool and are willing to order anything you want. They have "game days", but are more geared towards Star Wars minis and DDM than actual roleplaying games, though I think if someone offered to run a game they would have no problem with...

Another idea that would be cool IMHO, is a special edition that combines the PHB and Monsters and Treasures into one book. I would be all over this one in a minute, especially if it was a limited and numbered run.

<t>Hey just a heads up, if you can get your hands on it, there was an issue of Dragon magazine(#290 I believe) that had a fleshed out campaign setting for Eastern Europe called "Red Sails" From what I remember it was a pretty good setting that would be easily adaptable for C&C.<br/> <br/> It was...

Someone on another board suggested(since they technically don't exist in C&C) letting a Ftr score an auto-max damage critical on a natural 20 in place of Combat Dominance/ or even with it. What do you guys think?

Thanks guys will do. I ordered over the phone, and I might just be worrying for nothing. But it was the first time I ordered from TLG so I was a little nervous.

I placed an order on the saturday before last and haven't got my order yet, and I don't think my cards been charged. What should I do as far as finding out what's going on with my order. Just looking for some advice.

<t>NOTE: This system seems to work best for a more heroic or even a (Should I say it??) anime styled game. Since my players are all anime fans(along the lines of Vampire D, Ninja Scroll, and Lodoss War etc.) I originally thought up the system to implement that type of feel, but it works just as well...

<t>I was more so going for the whole staple of fantasy, where the hero or heroine can find hidden reserves for things that are important to them. Don't know if it's really pulpy, as I see this type of thing throughout fantasy literature all the time.<br/> <br/> An Example.<br/> <br/> Aragorn facing ...

<t>Okay, last night when I originally posted this it was something that had popped into my head and I didn't want to loose the idea. Now after a night of sleep and a few hours to think on it I've come up with a slightly revised system. Passions are selected by PCs as stated above, however each passi...

<t>Was thinking about this for the next campaign.<br/> <br/> All PC's start with passions, these are things your PC cares or feels strongly about.<br/> <br/> 1. A passion can be a person, place, thing or ideal.<br/> <br/> 2. Each PC starts with 4 passions<br/> <br/> 3. Each passion is rated from 1 t...

Just wondering if anyone had done a conversion, or played in a campaign using Castles & Crusades?

<t>Thats cool. I'm just really on a planescape kick right now, plus it allows me to use anything with it. Inner planes,Outer planes, Ravenloft, Dark Sun, etc. and it makes sense. I am still going to post my faction conversions and belief point system. I also am working on a broad lifepath for planar...

<t>These are my conversions for all of the Planescape races in the AD&D Planewalkers Handbook. So please tell me what you think, any suggestions or critiques are appreciated. I am almost finished working on the factions as well as a custom belief point system. Would be happy to post those as wel...

<t>Well I have finally finished converting all of the races and most of the factions, but I have run into a few bumps. I do not have accesss to my AD&D rulebooks and am unsure about the following. If anyone can give me either a CnC alternative or the stats for these spells it would be most appre...

<t>Thanks for the advice guys, and you know what Scurvy_Platypus you're right. I guess maybe, after playing 3e for so long I've become a little meek with the whole just go for your own version type thing, but I think your right. That's one of CnC's major draws. I've got the boxed set and the planewa...

<t>Well the player races; tieflings, aasimar, genasi, bauriaur, modrons, and githzerai. (I think thats all of them that aren't already in the CnC PHB).<br/> <br/> And I also believe different planes have different effects on magic and magical items. Oh yeah and the factions abilities.<br/> <br/> I r...

Was wondering if anyone had done any conversions for planescape material. If so I would appreciate a link to or posting of the info. If not would anyone be interested in working on something like this?

<t>I thought I'd throw some reasoning out for the decisions I made with the skill system.<br/> <br/> The whole 1/2 level added and prime still dependent on whether the attribute was or wasn't.<br/> <br/> Why? <br/> <br/> 1. So that those skills that infringed upon another characters abilities would ...

<t>Wuz up everyone. I'm a CnC newbie, just got the PHB and M&T about two weeks ago, and I am really impressed by it. I have played DnD 3.0-3.5 since it came out but recently found myself really dissatisfied with many things about it.<br/> <br/> 1. Too many rules (its just a game, I wanna have fu...
