<t>I do laugh when I stop to think about it, or whenever I spend some time in the K&KA "game theory" forum just to kill some time.<br/> <br/> I can remember a couple of posters over there complaining that I rambled on and on in my arguments, yet there's an entire forum of someone basically enjoy...

<t>Heh, just remember, according to that thread, C&C reflects those of us that worked on the game through and through, and if we're not old-school enough, any product that uses the system can't be, right?<br/> <br/> That's what I mean when I say intellectual dishonesty. There's a serious cogniti...

<t>I was intensely angered by the comments in the thread linked above, but I've decided to temper my response out of respect for the community here. This is a community that is built upon respect for others and acceptance, and it should stay that way, as should the community at DF.<br/> <br/> Having...

<t>Yep. Antonio has it right.<br/> <br/> The usefulness of a character is not predicated on the damage he or she can dish out.<br/> <br/> There is absolutely no need to give non-spellcasters something extra at high level to compensate and "level" the playing field. Every class brings something essen...

<t>Mets fans are tolerable. Try dealing with Yankee fans. <br/> Being a Blue Jays fan, and living where I am, is very difficult. Though having a wife from and relatives in Toronto helps my "true fan" cred. <br/> Good luck to the Cards. I'd like to see them take it this year. The Tigers are a great s...

<r>Technology doesn't agree with the Trolls. <br/> However, I can probably help you. Drop me an e-mail to <EMAIL email="ccsociety@gmail.com">ccsociety@gmail.com</EMAIL> and I'll do my best to hook you up and get you access. It might take me a couple of days (new baby) but I will get around to it. <b...

Welcome! Take a load off and stay a while.

<t>More good stuff!<br/> <br/> Gotta get these and Ser's Xenomorphs in a printable PDF format....<br/> <br/> Hell, you guys should just submit them to Domesday. That way all of the Society can get them, not just those that check the boards.<br/> <br/> Fiff<br/> _________________<br/> Sir Fiffergrund...

<t>I'm nearly caught up. I need to enter some new members, and then I need to do some work to my database. My original design was this beautiful complex thing, and I scrapped it and went back to the basics. I'm going to fill in some of those complexities now that things are pretty stable.<br/> <br/>...

I figure, why sugarcoat it?

<r>Heya - <br/> <br/> All membership requests should go to <EMAIL email="ccsociety@gmail.com">ccsociety@gmail.com</EMAIL>.<br/> <br/> I'll let you decide how much information you wish to provide. The ideal situation is that I have complete information for everyone wishing to belong to the Society. T...

Oh lord help me. There are two of you.

<t>I take the 1E approach but I change the training requirements to be less expensive. Generally, the PCs have enough for training and maybe a couple of equipment upgrades, then they are broke and need to do more adventuring. <br/> _________________<br/> Sir Fiffergrund, Lord Marshal of the Castle a...

Smartass.
I guess that's ok coming from a Lords Paladin. Besides, you gave us Aliens. Gotta love it.

<t>I saw the first one in the theaters. I can't resist it. It's like...watching a train wreck on nitrous oxide.<br/> <br/> I want to see this one in the theater too. Nothing beats the vibe from the crowd. However, new baby means no movies in the theater for a while. <br/> Fiff<br/> _________________...

<t>Hey guys - <br/> <br/> I know traffic is a bit slow in the Society forum, but there's an announcement there. If you have membership, think you *should* have membership, or wish to have membership in the Society, please read the announcement thread in that forum.<br/> <br/> Thank you!<br/> <br/> F...

<t>I'm not sure about the details of the contest, yet, but there will have to be some groundrules for eligibility. I'll have to talk to Steve about that, and I'll make sure I post when I know more.<br/> _________________<br/> Sir Fiffergrund, Lord Marshal of the Castle and Crusade Society.<br/> <br/...

<t>To date the benefits have included unanswered e-mails and a whole lot of nothing.<br/> <br/> As for the future, well, I have some ideas, including the contests mentioned in my announcement at the top of this forum. <br/> _________________<br/> Sir Fiffergrund, Lord Marshal of the Castle and Crusa...

<t>Ok, here's the plan:<br/> <br/> I'll have time tomorrow to answer e-mails and compile the rest of my data. When that's finished, I will send the Society an e-mail. I will post here, at DF, and at Raven's Keep when that e-mail is sent.<br/> <br/> When that is done, if you do not receive the e-mail...

You know, all of these killer caves in a relatively localized geographic area could make one hell of a Caves of Chaos.

Just a thought.

<t>You're welcome. Glad I could help.<br/> <br/> One more piece of advice with this approach, if I may...<br/> <br/> I'd institute a time limit for the player conference. You've probably already thought of this, but a group of players can banter back and forth about tactics forever without making a ...

<t>My experience with playtesting was that AD&D spells almost always "fit" better. However, as the spells in C&C were based on the SRD, all 3E+ spells can be made to fit C&C pretty easily. Some of them just need a bit more attention.<br/> _________________<br/> Sir Fiffergrund, Lord Mars...

<t>As the CK, you could ad-hoc initiative based on the circumstances.<br/> <br/> For instance, if the combat starts, usually one side clearly has the upper hand. Give that side initiative. If the actions of the PCs then start to turn the tide (and this could be immediately) the initiative should go ...
