This is my next choice for a possible setting for my next campaign. Sounds really cool.

I agree! This looks very good and I can't wait to get ahold of this. When will it be ready for ordering?

All the better reason to go with Rising Knight! And Beacon at Enon Tor is a great one-shot you can throw in with it. I think the two work marvelously together.

Agreed with Rising Knight, no question. It's a nearly perfect teaching tool for the system.

Oh, and best of luck with your game!

<t>Perfect sense. <br/> <br/> I'd say, as written, it feels more like a 1E game nicely combined with Classic's flexibility, (if that makes sense). Other than the flipped AC and the BtH bonus I personally get very little 3E feel (rules heavy, tactical nightmares, superhumanly powered PC's) when I pla...

My disdain for dinky PC races having been said, the grossest PC race class combo I have found for C&C so far is a gnome monk. Icky. All that damage and speed in a tiny freakish half goblin package.

Remind me to ban this combo! What a nightmare to imagine...

I do d10, PC's win all ties, and the PC's decide who goes first on their own ties. If this fails, DEX wins out. And if their DEX scores are the same, flip a coin.

<t>That makes sense. I think my biggest problem I'm having with it all is that I've got 25 years of D&D behind me yelling in my ear that all characters can hear noise (listen), but the Thief just is better at it. The same holds true for C&C, it just takes some extra training (levels) first. ...
