Troll Lord Games

<t>Do you use such checks in order to make death seem less trivial (buy 2 resurrections and get 1 for free...just kidding... )? If you do, how do you handle them?<br/> _________________<br/> "Abandon the search for Truth; settle for a good fantasy." author unknown <br/> My C&C Page<br/> My House...

Happy Thanksgiving to my American neighbours! Quote: This is my second Thanksgiving. It's cool being Canadian living in the US... I get one Thanksgiving in October, and another one in November. You lucky bastard... There won't be an extra serving of turkey waiting for me around here... _____________...

Quote: I have a lot of material for 1e and 2e and yes they convert very easily to C&C (mostly with no conversion at all). But over the months I have found that I was house-ruling C&C more and more and in the end, it looked more like 2e than it did C&C. I sure won't throw the first stone...

Quote: I think I may just make sleep have a Save in my game... it just makes more sense to me. Don't feel bad, I also do so without remorse regardless of the "consequences" of breaking *dramatic voice* the equilibrium of the universe... _________________ "Abandon the search for Truth...

Quote: I started playing RPG's because of Joe Dever's Lone Wolf and Steve Jackson's Fighting Fantasy game books in the early 80's. (French Versions) Weren't those "livres dont vous tes le hros"? Because these books really were my first contact (in elementary school) with the fantasy genre...

<t>The way I do it is that spellcasting must be announced at the beginning of the round and takes effect at the end of the round. You can check the "Combat Outline" of my house rules for more details...<br/> _________________<br/> "Abandon the search for Truth; settle for a good fantasy." author unk...

The Nox Arcana I know of isn't a metal band but there are the occasional vocals though (of the gothic choral type) in some of their tracks.

Quote: I *always* use the soundtrack to Bram Stoker's Dracula. Nothing else seems to work quite as well for me. I do have the Dracula soundtrack and it's great! Quote: I've got MIDNIGHT SYNDICATE albums - http://www.midnightsyndicate.com/ . They're great for horror type sessions. I use it with my R...

Quote: Allo Metathiax, je presume que tu resides a Montreal ou Quebec? Montral, ton nom m'est familier. Je l'ai probablement vu dans l'un des livres sur lequel tu as travaill mais dont j'oublie le nom. Par courtoisie pour les autres lecteurs, je vais continuer en anglais... Is your avatar one of yo...

Quote: I see that you can listen to them with an 'mp3 player' they've set up but you can't seem to download them anymore (unless I'm checking in the wrong section). I think you've looked at the right place and that their online mp3 player is what's left of their downloadable tracks (their original ...

That's a fun little game! Couldn't get through level 8 though...

I don't use this 3Eism but I have significantly altered the armor EVs and the effects of encumbrance.

Thanks for the great suggestions everyone! Does anyone know if the Diablo tracks are available for free online? I somehow have the impression they were, at least at some point... Quote: I have all that on dvd which I could send you by mail if your nice enough! lol.. Of course for legality.. all of t...

<t>I've never heard of this game before. I looked it up on the net and, from what little information I was able to find, it looks pretty awesome! Could anyone refer me to any relevant links about the game or where to find it?<br/> _________________<br/> "Abandon the search for Truth; settle for a go...

<t>Moriarty, thanks for the suggestions. I'll also look into them. <br/> By the way, it looks as if I met my match in terms of sleeplessness (is that even a real word?! It looks weird with its 5 "s" and 4 "e"...), you also keep posting in the middle of the night... <br/> _________________<br/> "Aban...

Quote: Army of Darkness and Conan/Red Sonja soundtracks are good ones. I'm going to take a look at those soundtracks. By the way, I really like your avatar! Where did you get the pic? _________________ "Abandon the search for Truth; settle for a good fantasy." author unknown My C&C Pa...

<t>I'm resurrecting this old thread since I've never properly introduced myself on these boards. Better late than never...<br/> <br/> My name is Sylvain and I'm a 26 years old French-speaking Canadian. I got a bachelor's degree in chemistry, effectively making me a chemist, and I've "recently" (last...

<t>I'm growing tired of my LotR soundtracks and I was wondering, while fleshing out some NPCs, what do you guys listen to, if anything, when you are preparing/playing a gaming session? My music library is desperately in need of a transfusion... <br/> _________________<br/> "Abandon the search for Tr...

<t>I thought I might share an interesting resource I stumbled upon a couple of years ago about medieval demographics. It could be pretty useful for the CKs out there who like to design their own campaign setting, especially for those who want to make it a bit more believable. It's very simple and co...

<t>There goes loyalty for ya, not that I would expect the film industry to have any... I guess not enough money has been made with the franchise!? I sure hope The Hobbit will be a quality film like the LotR movies and not cheat the public by degenerating the product into a crap-fest meant to cash on...

<t>This may help as far as the psionics go. I use Grey-Elf's fine work for those and I recommend it. Here's the link in case you didn't know about it.<br/> _________________<br/> "Abandon the search for Truth; settle for a good fantasy." author unknown <br/> My C&C Page<br/> My House Rules v8</t>

Quote: I can actually answer why RPG Now sells only the supplements. The guys who did the PDFs never got to those three books. Since the program was stopped, those books will likely never be scanned. You'll have to search other places to get a copy of the core rules. That's unfortunate, getting the...

Quote: Actually, my setup is OD&D, the earliest edition of the game, plus the things I wanted to use from its supplements. Venerable indeed... Quote: So, for races I have dwarf, elf, half-elf, halfling, and human (no gnomes or half-orcs). I should've of guessed the Tolkienesque selection... Quo...

Quote: To me, your 10 races and 25 character classes are too much. For my games, I use 9 classes, 5 races, and allow my players to actually THINK about what they want to be. Traveller, I think that to say that you are an Old-Schooler is somewhat of an understatement. You should be considered to be ...

Quote: I think you just perfectly described why I ran screaming from 3E and get feelings of nausea any time I contemplate DMing it again. I don't even hate the founding concepts behing the 3E. The rapid & uniform lvl progression, easy & unrestricted multiclassing, skills and feats do make u...

Quote: Involving Con could work, say... damage = Con till 6th level, then Con x 2 until 12th, and then Con x 3 at 18th+. Interesting solution although death is never an inconvenience in my campaign since I rule that True Resurrection still results in the lost of a CON point, making its "only&q...

Quote: Players though feel empowered, because they get all these kewl powerz and leet skillz to create a "build" with. Actually, I like the idea of having enough flexibility to create a specific character concept. Having said that, I strongly doubt that all of 3e D&D's 174 classes, 73...

Quote: Anyone using rules similar to this? In other words if a foe does half or more of the characters total HP in damage with a sigle attack, the character must save or die. That would be harsh! Example : A kobold bites the party's 1st lvl wizard for 2 HPs out of 4...the wizard fails the save and ...

Quote: Thus this could threaten the assumption that D&D is safe from competition. Empires sitting on their laurels are doomed to crumble sooner or later... _________________ "Abandon the search for Truth; settle for a good fantasy." author unknown My C&C Page My House Rules v8
