Troll Lord Games

<t>Hey gang. I still haven't found the time to actually start my campaign, but I have been thinking a great deal about C&C and the various ways I could best implement the system for two players (CK plus a player).<br/> <br/> One idea that occurred to me was to run the game around the life of an ...

As soon as I saw the name Melee the Jackson game came to mind. Remember it? Oh yeah! Fun times. Not so long ago I traded a boardgame fo...

<t>Sometime in the next week or so I will be starting my first campaign entitled "The Wandering."<br/> <br/> My wife will be the main player, an Elven ranger named Shera Whitehawk whom is being expelled from her home of Treetop in Kellerwald Forest (Aihrde). She is the youngest daughter of the rulin...

So you want a milestone ability? Ok...*Snip*... Just my opinion though hope it helps.

I really, really like your ideas! Especially the idea about continued SIEGE checks as the seduction continues. Nice.

Thanks!

<t>Gotta chime in on THAC0...<br/> <br/> I also started playing OD&D around 1978 or 1979 (I still have my Supplement I: Greyhawk) and it contained the rules which took AC to -9 and offered the Combat Table that showed the modifiers each weapon received against the differences in armor.<br/> <br/...

Hey, thanks for the feedback! Morgrus wrote: Seduce may need tweaking, IMO it plays like a 4e power. Hmm. I agree to the tweakage part, but am unfamiliar with 4e. No resemblances were intentioned, heh. Quote: A bard in a bar can have lots o young ladys falling for him or what if story calls for sedu...

<t>I decided to beef up the bard class for my campaign (The Wandering) which is about to start. While I like the class as it is represented in the PH, I just felt there needed to be an extra little kick or two which emphasized the singing/instrument playing, as well as a few abilities which worked o...

Yeah, sell it! Sell it all!

But if you don't sell it all, no worries as you have plenty of people here who will buy everything you have left!

Hope you all are having fun at GenCon.

<t>PIperdog, I would really, really like a copy of your map. I do not have the software available to me to do what you've done, and was trying to figure another way of enlarging the maps I have and adding a hex grid.<br/> <br/> I am getting ready to start a campaign, and part of that game will invol...

You've convinced me, serleran. I ordered this along with some LJ stuff.

Nice descriptions you've offered up, too.

<t>I just got my copy and was wondering how much of the background world you guys try to incorporate in your first few sessions?<br/> <br/> In the past, with my own homebrews, I have allowed for the group to "explore" their way into local and worldly knowledge, but this setting is really rich in his...

<t>Thanks, Matthew and Rhuvein!<br/> <br/> I am almost finished with my first read through of the Player's Handbook, and it is really, really inspiring. Likewise, with just a short glance at Assault on Blacktooth Ridge I already have a story idea for the beginning of the campaign.<br/> <br/> My wife...

I'm with cinderblock; I gotta look into this.

Thanks for the write-up, serleran!

<t>Picked up the C&C Player's Handbook, Monsters & Treasure, and Assault on Blacktooth Ridge today.<br/> <br/> Likewise, my wife ordered me the last two issues of Crusader magazine from TLG, and found me a copy of After Winter's Dark for my upcoming birthday. Yay wife!<br/> <br/> So, we'll b...

<t>Thanks, again, for the advice...and the antics!<br/> <br/> Question: my eyesight is not what it used to be, so should I bother with the Collector's Set of C&C? What size is the font?<br/> <br/> Otherwise, it's just me waiting for a payday before joining the ranks...err, crusade.<br/> <br/> Th...

<t>After taking a look at everything suggested, including the links and QS rules, I've decided to go with C&C as my RPG of choice.<br/> <br/> I, of course, have further questions.<br/> <br/> First, I'll need a near-complete world to play with, so I was going to go with Aihrde. But then there's C...

<t>And thanks for the warm welcome!<br/> <br/> I will delve further into the links provided, and I have downloaded and printed out (poor printer cartridge!) the QS rules.<br/> <br/> I am looking for a game similar to OD&D/AD&D, with a 3.5ish twist.<br/> <br/> This just may be the very game f...

<t>Hey folks! I'm looking for a fantasy RPG to start up and was wondering if you fine folks could talk me into C&C? I've been playing RPGs since the late 1970s and want to try one of the newer, non-4e games. It would be mainly a two or three people session from time-to-time. Is C&C the game ...
