Troll Lord Games

one somewhat close to your neck of the woods, Hammercon - in hamilton ontario. this will be its 2nd year, its 100% gaming. about 100 attendees showed up last year, expecting the same this year, if not a bit more.

Cheers,

<t>you very well could be right Danger.<br/> <br/> I don't know.<br/> <br/> I suspect that the concept of a "module" is not really even all that thought about any more - much of it'ss format and purpose is just assumed, because that's the way it always was...<br/> <br/> I'm really looking forward to...

<t>Danger, you are making a huge assumptive leap here. what is the saying.. Post hoc ergo propter hoc... (hopefully I'm not mangling things too badly).<br/> <br/> I'm looking at things from this point of view (and maybe this is wrong.. perhaps this edge case is actually not ever going to happen).<br...

its not just that one encounter. The final encounter mentions a Ungern as part of the entourage. Quickly now. what page in the M&T contains the Ungern? OK, trick question - it doesn't. What additional TLG product must you buy in order to have a correct write-up of an Ungern - no peaking at your boo...

<t>just to be clear.<br/> <br/> I did not contact TLG via email or phone regarding the descrepencies I found in the module.<br/> <br/> the order of events was as follows.<br/> <br/> I ordered via paypal a print copy of the module. I then realized there was no way in hell I'd get it in time for the t...

<t>Thanks steve,<br/> <br/> I'm not going to keep on harping, I've said my rant. it reads like a good module and after tonight, hopefully that will bear itself out.<br/> <br/> it saddens me that I cannot play the module as written - because I don't have the proper "tools" for it. Sure, I can change ...

<r>OK,<br/> <br/> Going to try and bang out a couple of different replies, thanks everyone (Even the detractors ) for the responses.<br/> <br/> to treebore:<br/> <br/> "Now if you bought it direct, from TLG, like I think you did, they should have made it clear that it needed the 4th printing to be f...

<t>Cool, the characters.<br/> <br/> Thanks a bunch!!!<br/> <br/> Why is it that I seem to be the "Freak" here when all I want is <br/> <br/> a) a complete module - with the parts in it that it says it should have<br/> <br/> b) that I don't have to look all over hells green acre's to find bits and pi...

<t>[quote="moriarty777"]Ok... the Multiclassing used here was called 'Class-and-a-Half' Multiclassing.<br/> <br/> This Illusionist can cast spells while wearing armor but the target of the spell is granted a bonus to the save equal to the base AC value of the armor.<br/> <br/> The character gets the...

<t>Treebore.<br/> <br/> Sure, I expect to modify things - that's fine, and expected. and in fact, I'll be playing this mod tomorrow to test it out and make sure it runs smooth. and making changes to the FLOW of the game based on that experience.<br/> <br/> but unlink (I suspect) most who play C&...

one of the best campaigns I ever ran with with the Conspiracy-X game - loads of fun.

fast, simple "modern" type game.

I certainly got my monies worth from that book.

<t>but I don't have the 3rd print. only 1st and 2nd, I felt the 3rd did not warrant a purchase because the only significant change was the addition of the poison chart which I already had in the M&T. I for one, do not feel I should have to buy a brand new printing each time a new printing is rel...

<t>it really is crazy, honestly, that the company that releases a game, doesn't maintain the games errata as a professional, living, sanctioned document. Every single other publisher maintains their own official errata. Sure, fans spot the mistakes and bicker over what is and isn't - that's supposed...

<t>Wouldn't the towers of adventure PDF modules that are designed for single session play work well?<br/> <br/> Also, Dwarven forge was supposed to be a single session mod<br/> <br/> I would also think that for a high-octane mod but would require a lot of trimming, but would be fun because its a cha...

<t>Well, thanks Steve for chiming in, While I don't agree, I hear your challenges. Musing here, but I wonder if these "changes" had of been released as an "errata" download (or whatever you want to call it) prior to a 4th printing, would have changed the worldview in relation to retailers perception...

<t>There can be *no* valid, non gouging business reasons to provide a short PDF document that ONLY contains the changes from previous printings (I would say at a maximum, poison rules, the full barbarian write-up, and those new spells for the Illusionist). this is in no way playable, and in no way g...

<t>This is errata, unless its really supposed to be treated as a new edition, and you know how quickly that word gets pounced on around here.<br/> <br/> here's my issue I suppose, between the 1st to 3rd prints (except for the poison rules which could be found elsewhere if you paid for the product) r...

<t>Not to disagree, however;<br/> <br/> - 1st and 2nd printings don't have poison rules<br/> <br/> - barbarian class tweaked<br/> <br/> - new spells for illusionist class<br/> <br/> all ='s the need to release an "official" errata for prior printings so *everyone* can be on the same page regarding t...

<t>[quote="gideon_thorne"][quote="DangerDwarf"]<br/> <br/> I didn't think that is what Jman was asking. Just if the new info would be available without buying the new print.[/quote]<br/> <br/> Probably 6 months to a year after the print is out, same as the pdf question earlier. [/quote]<br/> <br/> I...

<t>So, with the newest prints of the core books slowing coming around, I was just wondering, those of us who now have an old copy of the game, will we be offered a download those sections of the rules that have undergone the changes (the new barbarian and Illusionist and poison rules)? or will we ha...

<t>I have to say, as one of the initial subscribers (think lucky #13), I'm thoroughly confused as to the state of my subscription and what it means.<br/> <br/> Guess by this point I've just written off that purchase, as it was "risky" when I made it. If I get stuff in the mail - printed stuff - groo...

<t>yup. all that is true. was just floating a potential idea of hosting a "mature" con, in which you could go up to a bar, get a drink, and then go to your seat and play. no minors invited.<br/> <br/> same as we were equally floating the ideas of a "traditional" con<br/> <br/> and having a "family c...

<t>been to panda a few times. sadly, think it's no defunct.<br/> <br/> the space that we have is good for +125 people to attend. so, I guess a small-sized mini-con<br/> <br/> it'll be held in a hotel where we have access to a central lobby, and around 4 or 5 different rooms (for different events).<b...
