Troll Lord Games

As I understand it, it includes a condensed/basic/lite set of Siege Engine rules.

Yeah, I downloaded and tried the TLG Discord for about 5 minutes. Everyone was very helpful but the format sucks. Never went back on again. If that is the way of the future, I'll say my goodbyes now.

There are many things in C&C that are left to the individual group/CK to determine, some are oversights,some are deliberate * The game is meant to work with various TSR editions of the game and is also fairly compatible with 3.0 (intentionally or not). It is probably safe to assume that experien...

HHCKG essentially has much of Black Librum of Nartarus and a big monster expansion in the back as well.

Its a great book, if a bit hastily put together.

I"d like to see an alt cover ala the last PHB run. Not digging the cover at all as shown on the KS email that came through

This is excellent. Thank you for the time and effort Noldor! Totally stealing this. Should be in the next print of the CKG

I've not read all the replies. I do run a game for my son and his peers, and have done so for about 7 years. They were all 10/11 to start and now are off to college in the fall in various parts of the country. Quite sad the gaming with them will pretty much come to an end now. That said, best pieces...

I dig and have used a whole bunch of settings... But specifically for C&C I have used Haunted Highlands, Aihrde (when using an A series module from TLG), and my homebrew Forgotten Realms (which is essentially the OGB, with a few bits or places or plots from later FR materials like the Volo Guide...

Nobody knows?

What exactly is available on The Portal? Is there a list? For C&C I am mainly interested in the adventures ( from any setting) , as well as setting info for Aihrde. CKG and Classic M&Twould be nice, but alone they are not enough to make me pull the monthly trigger. I have the AA core book an...

Maybe the Mythnoc Cairns or one of the other adventure areas in DB1?

Or one of the three dungeons in Dwarven Glory?

Forgot to mention. Download the free Guide to DungeonWorld. Iit does a great job of explaining some of the concepts that some gamers might have some difficulty understanding.

I was involved with the playtest up to about the last revison prior to KS.. Although there were a few mechanicsl ideas/ elements I enjoyed, I found the system overly fiddly requiring multiple decision points on both sides of the screen even for a routine task. It seems to be trying too hard and comp...

A little late. I dont frequent this forum much,but Dungeon World is what we play the majority of the time these days (though I ran A0 for C&C on Fathers Day). We have a blast. I run it for my "kids" group. Who now are all 16/17 yo. They like rule minimalism (so do I), and they get much...

Is that not a blown up version of the pic utilized in M&T for thr Gargoyle entry?

To encourage the S&S minimal armor trope, simply restrict the heaviest stuff and give out incremental level based AC bonus. Fighters wouod get a bigger bonus, rogues the next biggest, and magic users the least. For fighters, maybe half of level, +dex bonus if any, and make scale or chain the bes...

I should clarify, mine are the latest color prints of the PHB and M&T.

Im unfamiliar with any previous color prints. My last set of books were the green cover b&w versions.

Fan of the color. Especially for M&T. I think it made alot of the monsters "pop".

I should note that 99% of the time I favor little to no art, b&w gaming books. I just think the color helps with the particular artists The Trolls utilize.

I have done a couple versions of combat dominance. One was at every level.divisible by 3, the hd of the creature went up one. So 3rd level works against 2 hd. 6th level.works against 3hd, etc. The other and I think the one I will stick with is is similar the Great Cleave of 3.x/ PF if you drop a foe...

<t>I voted #4, but anything but #3 sounds good to me. as a DM, Multitudes of small books is a PITA. 2 books, not really- though I'm not sure the C&C demographic of players is the same kind of "crunch" purchaser as 3E/4E. This may end up being a bad decision if all the stuff most C&C fans wan...

<t>Got mine as well yesterday- looks good- much more polished , organized and easy on the eyes compared to the 1st and 3rd prints (I think it was third, the one with the ultra glossy paper?). I don't have my old prints to compare directly, but the Barbarian seems quite a bit different, in a good way...
