<t>Over here in Montreal, there is only 1 store that I know of carrying the C&C books. Even so, the same PHB and M&T has been sitting on their shelves for over 6 months. The modules are limited ( I think only 3 or so ) and I think I'm the only one to buy anything recenlty. I don't claim to k...

<t>I have a similar problem but the reverse - sort of...<br/> <br/> I run a game in C&C and I've succesfully converted my gamers with a few minor changes to accomodate their desires. I needed to appease them somewhat so I introduced certain feats and other '3e - isms'. I think as a DM you need t...

I subscrie to Dungeon as well and usually the mag gets here in 7 days tops. The 2nd to last issue only got here 3 days before the last one (last Monday), so perhaps there is a problem with Canadian deliveries.

Just got back from my 2 weeks vacation and still no magaine. My Dragon Mag got here, 2 weeks late, but it got here.

{sigh}

<t>Hmmm... there are so many ways to look at it.<br/> <br/> I thought of your idea a few weeks back, but then I felt I was going against basic C&C rules and I didn't want to veer to far off course. At some point I would run C&C adventures and then would have to re-adjust the way of thinking ...

Are there still other fellow Canadians who still have not received their copy of crusafer #4?

I've left messages, and emails and have yet to hear from anyone if in fact my copy was sent out.

This is very dissapointing.

<t>I'm a big movie fan, and since my wife works in the theater, I get to see LOTS of movies. However, I've been too busy to go lately, but I did take the time to go see this picture without even knowing what it's about.<br/> <br/> It's FANTASTIC. Honestly, the best movie I've seen in a LONG time. Th...

<t>I do a very simple thing... I leave them hanging! <br/> Last night, they were fightng a beholder, which not to there knoweldge, was actually a Gauth with an illusion cast upon him to look like a Beholder. So when a greenish ray fired off at one of the characters, and he quite easily failed his sa...

<t>I bought the Dungeon Tiles today (along with the collasal red dragon ) and I gotta say that these tiles aer really cool. I've purchased the dugeon tiles from Paizo/Game Mastery, and even thought they are cheaper, they are almost paper thin as compared to the WOTC variety.<br/> <br/> I'm impressed...

<t>So there I was... in my local hobby store walking towards the back looking for a large box containing the dragon.<br/> <br/> HOLY CRAP! <br/> <br/> It's Huge!<br/> <br/> I didn't realize how big it would be untill I saw it displayed on the top shelf. I couldn't carry the box under my arm.<br/> <b...

<t>Personally, I like to see more adventures.<br/> <br/> However, why not more settings created for C&C so as not to only have one that may not appeal to everyone? I would love to see a new Horror setting but not a copy of Ravenloft. A more modern setting would be cool as well. I think the key t...

SAME HERE!!!!

Still missing mine

<t>OK... my arm hurts now... so untwist it ppppplease?<br/> <br/> I've uplaoded the pic I took of my mini, after he was surprised by the owner of the treasure he is about to steel.<br/> <br/> I'll try to scan the picture drawn by my friend for Jynx - it's really cool!

<t>Well... my user name is also taken from my first character since my 15 year hiatus. I stopped playing RPGs in 1987/8 and got back into it in Jan 2003. I started a new character - a rogue - 2nd edition Forgoten Realms, and have been playing him every since. Even today! I have lots of history with ...

<t>HAHA!<br/> <br/> I just finished up a session in a 3.5 game with my friends. I play a Psion Warrior and there was a point in the game where I could have used my psionics to help the party, but I know that my character would not do it, so when asked by my friend to use my power, I explained why, a...

Before the actual game I convert the monsters

I'm curious how you would do this?

<t>If the task at hand requires a skill check, then to me, that assumes that there is always a chance of failure. If however, I rule it to be an automatic success for a character, then why bother with the dice? That's my approach. So I therefore use Negative CLs when ever it is appropriate.<br/> <br...

serleran wrote: Look at your columns "% Success." That is my point. It's true that the lower the DC, the easier it is to succeed as compared to the divide by 3 method, but on the other end of the spectrum, the reverse is true. The higher the DC, the harder, if not even IMPOSSIBLE the chan...

<r>I've run several Eberron 3.5 Adventures using C&C. I started by subtracting 15 to get a Challenge level then added that to the base of either 12 or 18, but then I simplified my life and basically added 3 to any DC (which works out the the same thing as subtractng 15), or if I'm feeling extra ...

<t>Hi!<br/> <br/> First, I hope this is in the approriate section... if not I'm sorry! We can move it I suppose...<br/> <br/> Anyhow...<br/> <br/> Some of my favorite movies and TV series, happen to be about castaways and disaster type of stories.<br/> <br/> i.e. Gillagans Island, Castaway, Lost in ...

I LOVE IT!

<r>Speaking of TLG handouts and game conventions...<br/> <br/> We're having a local Montreal Based Gaming convention. It's the first time it will be held but I know the organizers and they are certain it will be a success. I was going to run some C&C games but had to pull out due to last minute ...
