Troll Lord Games

<t>As many of the regulars on this board probably know by now, I am working on an adaptation of the Warcraft setting to C&C. There are some definite sticking points though, mainly because Blizzard has put their own spin on so many familiar fantasy elements. Of course, that's part of why I like t...

We really need a Castles & Crusades wiki for all the fan created material.

No, I am not volunteering.

<t>I have been looking at a way to incorporate skiils again, and I am trying to use the game's internal rules logic (fore a change ) . What's below is I have come up with.<br/> <br/> First, let me address how I am viewing the rules as written to get a sense of the logic at work here.<br/> <br/> Basi...

<t>Hello all. I'm still tinkering with running the world of Azeroth with the C&C ruleset. Some classes can be used right out of the box, but a couple require additions or tweaks for my purposes.<br/> <br/> What does everyone think of the following new wizard spells, which are representations of ...

Thanks guys for the info. Believe it or not, until Treebore's reply in this thread I didn't even know a CKG was planned.
I'm definitely picking that up the first chance I get.

<t>I am not sure where they came from either. I just wanted to share an amusing tidbit about the bard in our last campaign (which was sadly 3.5 D&D).<br/> <br/> I used to hate bards, and so did most everyone else in our group. Maybe it was because of the problem you identified with it being hard...

<t>So anyway, I know this stuff is still rough. Any help or guidance anyone could give me would be greatly appreciated.<br/> <br/> I'm toying with the idea of making all the "skills" into advantages, and giving x advantages per y levels, kinda like a cross between the old proficiency systems and 3.x...

<t>Ok, so I am working on a few things for my homebrew game, and I wanted to get some feedback. Post thoughts, criticisms, potential changes, whatever comes to mind. <br/> The advantages come from the 3.5 SRD feats, AD&D proficiencies, and some things I made up for other games here and there. I ...

<t>ADVANTAGES<br/> <br/> All characters receive five advantages at 1st level to help make characters mechanically varied. These bonuses are designed primarily to make those fond of D&D 3.x feats and "customizing" their characters happy, hopefully without unbalancing the game.<br/> ABLE DRINKER<b...

<t>SKILLS<br/> <br/> Available skills are listed on the table below. Definitions are especially broad, so as to make the skills of maximum use and not clutter up the game with several dozen of them.<br/> <br/> Using skills is a very simple process, in keeping with the rules-light theme of C&C. S...

<t>I'm new around here, so I don't know if this topic has come up before, but are there any plans to publish a universal RPG using the SIEGE engine / C&C as its base? I for one would be very interested in such a thing. Not that Savage Worlds or True20 are bad systems, but neither of them is as s...

Thanks guys for the advice. I'll just do what seems most logical to me, since I have no interest in reverse engineering the XP values of class abilities from the PHB. I never liked 3e / 3.5e for just that sort of thing (all the time spent on calculations instead of writing intriguing scenarios). Tre...

<t>There's a thread about the variations in EPP progression that got me thinking about a subject that is very important to the game I plan to run starting either this week or next. Namely, how do I determine the progression for homebrew classes? This is important because I plan to run a game set in ...

<t>Hi all. I am not sure if this is the place for this post, since I am brand new to these forums, but here goes...<br/> <br/> I bought the .pdf of the C&C PH today, and I just finished reading it. It is an amazing book! I am so pleased with it in fact that I felt obliged to come to the forums a...
