Troll Lord Games

Heh, I thought you liked nice simple fast systems...

Lucky guy. Mine is sorta that way too. I have to be careful what I say or ask for, even jokingly.

Better yet, just go to rpg.net and start a thread about how well C&C works and how much you like it. It won't take long...

<t>MRQ isn't broken, it works. It even has some very good material, such as the very best chargen I have seen in a BRP game, derivative or not. The mechanics have some bumps, nothing that can't be fixed. Mongoose is even taking care of my biggest gripe, by combining the three core books into one, wh...

<t>*shrug*<br/> <br/> All the options already exist. The game is Basic Role Playing.<br/> <br/> D&D and its relatives, such as C&C, have a better range of monsters and caste spell magic, in general. I guess if you want it all you have to mess with one system or the other and work for it. The...

I wouldn't get too excited. Just ask some old RQ/BRP fans...Mongoose will have created a game and system called 'Traveller', don't you know?

*shrug* I remember wondering about it while reading the sixth book. It was pretty much in your face.

It has been a looong time since I read it, but yeah, he is kind of small, isn't he? And his mother is a little too...pretty. How about the comic book look?

Has anyone else seen it? What do you think?

<t>Actually, Rowling has dropped a lot of 'future history' of the characters in various interviews during the last week. I am too lazy to go hunting up where they are, but a few bits: Harry becomes head of the Aurors, and cleans up the Ministry of Magic; Hermione becomes an outspoken friend of the d...

<t>Well, I came to start a new thread, but since this one was already started, has anyone seen the new trailer for Beowulf? If you liked the look of '300' you will want to check this out. I don't, and am very disappointed that they are doing it the way they are, but some of you may have a new favori...

Amazingly, at my age, I can now say I can add some more life affecting books to my list, after having given the last one a look...the Harry Potter books. I am very impressed with what at first seemed to me a flash in the pan children's book. They very, very much deserve to be on my list, IMO.

Err, thanks. I guess.

Are the new editions in color?

You know, Treebore, there are times when it is really tempting to kill off one or more of the PCs.

'Little Fuzzy', of course!
Add those to my list, too. I got a lot of favorites, that influenced my life.

<t>Oh, the box was 18' x 18'. The contents, as I remember, a stack consisting of four hardbacks, a couple of perfect bound supplements, and an old set of chits. My wife packed it, she's thorough, the packing was about as thick as the stack. It wasn't a bad deal at all, certainly better than Half Pri...

<t>Thanks for the tips.<br/> <br/> I have had better than average luck with NKG. And a bad habit of buying rpgs just to read, once. Well, it IS my only bad habit. Heh, my wife puts up with it so how bad could it be?<br/> <br/> Last time, I traded one foot-and-a-half by foot-and-a-half box full of st...

Thanks for the offer, but I have decided to exchange a bunch of stuff for credit at NKG, get all the books I want for my game in one fell swoop (with a mixture of credit and cash). Also, I want the NM items, even though they are more expensive. I do appreciate your offer.

<t>There are some sites on the internet filled with art, and you can download the pictures and expand them, and print them out. I think it is cool as long as you don't have a profit motive, at least at some of them. For instance, do a Google for Frank Frazetta and marvel at what comes up. There is t...

Usually I really don't like to be 'spoiled' on a new book, but for some reason I am very ambivalent about this one. I just want to KNOW. But don't worry, I'm not out to spoil anyone elses fun. Not another peep.

I was saying...C&C hits the spot for me too.

And I would like to see some more stuff like weapon descriptions as well, and material like the appendices in the 1st AD&D DMG. Surely no problem with the C&C rules, but some of that sort of material really comes in handy...

Serleran, how cheap, and what condition in NKG terms?

Oh, I am definitely a rules-light kind of GM/CK.

Like when Elric! came out I kept running Stormbringer 1 'cause Elric! was too rules heavy. For me.

Agreed. I doubt either one is for real, anyway.

I'll post about it next week if one was accurate, maybe.

<t>Hmmm, noble knight has a bunch of this old 2e stuff right now. What to get, though. The Gygax book, and all this 2e stuff I am thinking about: Creative Campaigning, Catacomb Guide, Monster Mythology, Spell Encyclopedias, Arms and Equipment. I can get the Gygax and one of the others or three of th...

<t>Well, I was looking for these scans and actually found a couple of synopses last night. If your curious I can tell you about the ending of those two. They are so wildly different from each other I doubt they could count as spoilers, although part of my fun now is waiting to see if either one is t...

Demons?

I miss demons.

Ah, I was about to send off for that. Should I wait?

Well, that is probably a silly question.

<t>Good. I hadn't read that far yet, but it did feel like the way things were tending.<br/> <br/> An additional thought. I have one module so far, Assault on Black Tooth Ridge. I like it, but I think the treasure awards are too generous, more than the rules seem to indicate. Any input on this? I fig...
