Troll Lord Games

<t>Wow. Brutal. I guess this just seems alien to me, falling being deadly. Ironically, the player who ran the knight who fell here was a friend as a young child. To see if he was spiderman or not (we were four, okay?), we invented an ingenious scientific method, where he would hang on to the fourth ...

<t>Yeah. Definitely more roleplay-intensive. The great thing that my player hasn't taken into consideration is the possibility that his squire may still be alive. I'll post more soon. Gotta study for a psychology (more like suckology. Heh. Heh. Juvenile humor.) final tonight. But tomorrow night I'm ...

<t>You know, the man was a great author. Phillip K. d**k. I'm surprised that the censor would even edit out the word d**k. I mean, it's not really that bad. Phillip K. D!ck. There. See what you made me do, computer? I had to disgrace the name of one of my favorite authors. Damn you, machines! Daaaaa...

<t>So I recently ran a session of Assault on Blacktooth Ridge (you can check out the adventure log in the Crusades section). In one area, the floor breaks and the unlucky player tumbles down a thirty foot drop, sustaining...6D6 damage!? Usually fall damage has been along the lines of 1D6 per 10ft of...

<t>I had forgotten about these grab-bags. I thought that they weren't going to have any more ever since that whole money-dealy. Truly a Christmas miracle!

<t>This is a game? This is what I do all the time. <br/> At Egyptian Campaign, occasionally there can be a shortage of tables.

<t>So it's been a busy couple of weeks in college land. Two of my friends have moved to California, one never wants to roleplay, and the other is always busy with school. So I have one player left. The campaign I was playing in fizzled out, so I was getting pretty desperate for some C&C. So I pi...

Woah! I can't believe that everyone overlooked the greatest Christmas movie ever!

<t>Also, I was wondering if there were any good rules out there for building structure damage. Like when a catapult's missile hits a castle's wall, how much more punishment can that wall take? C&C doesn't seem to have many rules for the former part of its namesake, and I would sure like to see s...

<t>GG's World Builder is pretty handy when it comes to info like this. And since someone has a topic called "weapon length", I don't think anyone will mind if I try to get an issue resolved about weapon length. <br/> <br/> Initiative: Should it be affected by weapon length? I have done a couple "med...

<t>And people are worried about where we're going to store our depleted uranium? Bah humbug. DU dice and DU ammo. <br/> <br/> They should have ended the description of the dice with "Makes a great gag gift!" <br/> <br/> Oh, to have a pair of depleted uranium dice...<br/> _________________<br/> Scien...

<t>What would be interested in this more "big-monster slaying" oriented rules set of yours would be to include some rules for siege weapons, such as catapults, trebuchetes, and ballistas. I know that I have a DnD 3.0 sourcebook somewhere around here that had some pretty brutal rules for siege weapon...

<t>Interesting. Sometimes I pick modules up just for the puzzles. Riddles are fun, too, but sometimes it's hard to find a context for them in a dungeon. TLG needs, like, a book of 100 puzzles to use in any dungeon. I know I'd buy it.<br/> _________________<br/> Scientists will never understand that ...

<t>Interesting propositions. Probably the most inviting prospect is the one that seems to be the simplest: Monsters have max HP. The idea of dealing max damage is also interesting. It reminds me more of a "video-game" rpg, though not necessarily in a bad way. Things to ponder indeed.<br/> __________...

<t>Also, can you use illusions to disguise things like fire or water as something else? For instance, if you were to disguise a fire, as, say, a fountain? Do illusions block light, and do they feel the heat from the fire? I don't think that if they can be damaged by illusions that they'd be able to ...

<t>Thanks for the...clarification? Well, as long as it's at my discretion. <br/> <br/> I think that the revision sounds like a good idea. The illusionist is underpowered. I don't think that many can disagree that the Wizard is a stronger class than the Illusionist in most games.<br/> _______________...

<t>I like the idea of avoiding the rolls, but it just seems strange. Like, I could understand an illusion of a dragon giving heart-attacks, but as far as psycho-somatically self-inflicting wounds, it just seems a bit contrived. I don't think that your average peasant or creature would have the menta...

Good for you. (PADPADPADPAD)

<t>Yeah, M&M seemed a little complicated, and not exactly user-friendly. Just not my kind of super-hero game. I demand fast-paced, onomonopoeia-inducing action!<br/> <br/> I don't play much gurps, but gurps supers sounds pretty cool. I was flipping through the book at a game store yesterday when...

<t>Oh my. Poor Jalen. At least he dropped his equipment for everyone else to gank now. I'm curious: What was the puzzle in the shrine? I always have a hard time inventing puzzles for my game. Puzzles are important to my games because they really switch up the action, and give Bards a chance to shine...

<t>illusionists have always suffered in a standard dungeon-crawl setting, especially in smaller parties. In larger parties, or in more "socially charged" campaigns, it can prove to be an extremely valuable asset. But in a dungeon, especially at lower levels, it can't compete with its more powerful c...

<t>So how many "sovereign" sized coins would there be to an EV? And are there rules in the PHB on electrum? This is all very interesting. I usually play a dwarf rogue, so encumberance never bothered me too much in DnD 3.5. But now that we moved to CnC, adjustments must be made. <br/> <br/> And I hav...

<t>Ugh.<br/> <br/> I've been looking around online a bit, and it doesn't seem that there are any good generic lines of space ship miniatures. I mean, the best I can find are old Silent Death miniatures, of which I have quite a few. Star Wars seems to have the space-ship miniatures market cornered. I...
