Troll Lord Games

These things are interesting to me. Typically reading a set of house rules gives you a good idea of how a DM likes to run their game, and the rules are typically to elicit a certain theme, feel or tone. So to use a 3d6 method (presumably because you like "grittier", low number games) but ...

I don't have the CKG yet, but after reading the forums a bit it seems like it'd be right up my alley. I'll put it next on my list after the umbrage saga boxed set. My own house rules are: -Roll 3d6 arranged for stats, reroll the lot if you have 3 or more negative modifiers (lots of whining about the...

I recently started a game and did not give out XP for treasure at first. (I'm from the new school, I didn't even know that was a thing!) After a whole session, I had handed out about 90 xp (one fight) and that was split between to PCs and a hireling. That was depressing, like the OP said, so I looke...

Thanks for all the great advice! I'm considering killing off a few of the farmers. I've really only given one a name, and described on other. Odon served in an army before moving out east and becoming a farmer, he serves as their spokesperson most of the time. When the PCs decided to give a sack ful...

So I just started running A0 the Rising Knight, and everything's going pretty well. I have 3 players of insane variety of experience. One is brand new to RPGs, one has played a ton of 2nd edition, and one has been playing since 1978! The two less experienced players started out alone and quickly rec...

I love this idea - I'm a recent addition tot he crusade, but I've read the Domesday books I could download from Dragonsfoot. I love the idea of homebrew content I could download and maybe add to once I get my GMing feet.

We just played our first game this sunday, hopefully to become a weekly tradition! You're welcome to come next sunday, Ogma, and play with us. I've taken up the GM role, so no worries about that. I was worried at first, but C&C seems to give the CK enough leeway that I'm not worried about doing ...

Thanks! You have fun in Wisconsin, too! It's a bit far for me, but looks like a ton of fun from the website. I'll keep an eye out for Castles & Crusades and older D&D stuff at Gamestorm, and tell you guys all about it.

Is that actually still going? I can only find info from last year online, I assumed it was cancelled. I'm going to Gamestorm next month, but I understand that's not as much about RPGs.

Thanks for the quick reply! I've got a couple other people in the Portland Gamers meetup group looking to join a C&C group, I may just have to start up my own. I'm gonna keep looking and put a notice up at Rainy Day and some other stuff first.

Hey everyone! Just introduced to Castles and Crusades, and I'm looking for people to play with. I was wondering if there are any groups playing C&C in the Portland/Beaverton or Hillsboro area, and are willing to take on another player. Special bonus if you guys meet up at my FLGS, Rainy Day Game...
