<r>In M&T, a Ring of Force Shield allows the user to project a 'Heavy Shield' in front of them. However, there is no Heavy Shield in the equipment list. Also, most shields only do +1, so aren't the effects of a Ring of Force Shield mostly duplicated by a Ring of Protection +1?<br/> _____________...

<r>Remember the Golden Rule: "Give your players a good time." If you can do that, they'll be more interested in your worldbuilding and other stuff you can slip while they go off and be the coolest people in the campaign world.<br/> _________________<br/> Visit the Castles & Crusades wiki!<br/> <...

<r>I had planned to go through the boards and put them up at the C&C wiki as a big project, probably organised alphabetically or doing one page per monster. There's also lots of original monsters on the boards as well.<br/> _________________<br/> Visit the Castles & Crusades wiki!<br/> <URL ...

<r>Let's see:<br/> <br/> If you want share piccies with us all, why not upload them to a site like flickr? (<URL url="http://www.flickr.com/">http://www.flickr.com/</URL>) Then you can give us the URL and we can see what neat, game-related stuff you've taken snaps of!<br/> <br/> Problem #1. I'd just...

Are there any benefits to weilding a weapon with two hands?

<r>Do racial abilities (e.g. Move Silently for an elf) act the same as a class ability? Would an elf wizard be able to move silently as a human rogue would? (Does the elf wizard's move silently equal Level + Dex Bonus versus a CB of 12?)<br/> _________________<br/> Visit the Castles & Crusades w...

<r>I'm trying to put together a Gary Gygax memorial dungeon crawl this weekend, on Saturday, using some of Gary's own, later material. If there are any C&C gamers in Sydney, Australia, and you want to do some gaming this Saturday afternoon/evening, reply here or drop me a PM. (I'm in the Parrama...

<r>Palace of Shadows. (A Goodman Games C&C adventure.) I did it as a ten hour dungeon crawl over the holidays and there was a good mix of puzzles, NPCs to talk to/be diplomatic with, different environments and lots of fights. The players were also able to use a number of different tacticals stra...

<r>My current (unfortunately infrequent) campaign is 'Around Castle Zagyg'. The players are adventuring in the wilds of Yggsburgh (doing all that stuff in the back of the book.) Occaisionally, there are stories of the castle which can be seen glimpsed through the shroud of mists but no one has been ...

Maybe the book is hyperlinked - when you touch an entry in the contents page, it takes you to that reference.

<r>I'd be up for that! I'd prefer Option B. (Also check that every Wilderlands specific term that's appeared in AGJ to date appears in the Guide, and if you use new terms in future that aren't in the Guide, define them in AGJ as you go along.)<br/> _________________<br/> Visit the Castles & Crus...

<r>Just another idea I had - maybe you could do a regular feature - 'The Player's Guide to the Wilderlands', giving new or existing readers the basics of the setting without making them refer to the Necro Player's Guide. And explain about weather, seasons, BCCC, where the City-State is and all that....

<r>Maybe if you explain social level and the different types of humans/races - even a short one line description in your glossary section e.g. 'Tharbian - The race of red-skinned humans from Altanis.") And maybe you could put this list on the website as well?<br/> _________________<br/> Visit the Ca...

<r>I don't like using real world gods in fantasy settings - mainly because they have their own stories and mythography, and that gets gutted when dumped into a generic fantasy setting.<br/> <br/> I'm not fond of Demeter and Poseidon in Airdhe and would probably replace them if I ran a campaign there...

<r>It just means that legitimate customers are unable to buy the full book in PDF format. Those that want to give TLG money... can't.<br/> _________________<br/> Visit the Castles & Crusades wiki!<br/> <URL url="http://castlesandcrusades.wikispaces.com/">http://castlesandcrusades.wikispaces.com/...

<r>Hi Steve,<br/> <br/> Your blog addressed most of my issues (outlining your release strategy/staffing). <br/> <br/> Thanks for also addressing PDF releases and thinking about future strategies, and for making an effort to focus on one thing at a time!<br/> <br/> One suggestion is that you could do...

<r>The wiki can host stuff and anyone can modify or update it (provide they join up.) I guess the problem with copying CnCPlayer.net is that all of the files there belong to people and, if those people are interested in a back-up, they'll either have to move the material to to the wiki themselves or...

<r>One thing that's worked for me in the past is to have a session where the players just do backgrounds together as a group, rather than seperately. That way you've got something there, even if they never write it up for you. Why are they adventuring together? I normally get them to devise three po...

<r>I noticed that TLG has a lot of stuff in the pipeline - Castle Zagyg, the "A" Series, Cult of Yex, the Siege Engine boxed sets etc, but a lot of is still in production. Lots of new stuff is announced but existing projects are not completed, while further new projects are announced and not complet...

How many people showed up?

<r>I was hoping to run the Cult of Yex adventures this year and re-start my campaign. Anyone knows if we'll ever get more than CoY #1 released, even as PDFs?<br/> _________________<br/> Visit the Castles & Crusades wiki!<br/> <URL url="http://castlesandcrusades.wikispaces.com/">http://castlesand...

<r>I'd like you to use the existing C&C wiki. It doesn't get enough love as it is. I'm the only one who's added stuff there at all since I joined the management team. It could certainly use the cross-pollination with the C&C Society to become a stronger tool and hopefully capture a larger us...

<r>Ah, I didn't think about the Ravenloft game. Which threads would have the pertinent PC stats? I'll just give everyone base magical gear rather than trying to calculate it out properly, that also ensures that PCs can thwack all undead with ease.<br/> <br/> Also, thanks for the offer Rhu - looking ...

<r>I moderate the official Castles & Crusades wiki. Everyone is welcome to join and add content. There's even a space where you can upload your own resources to share with the community.

<r>Hey, I'm running a demo game this Friday, and may be short on time to make up pre-generated characters for the event. If anyone can help me out and stat up some 6th to 8th level characters (about 81,000 XP), with appropriate equipment, including magical items, it would really be appreciated. (The...

Is Cult of Yex still going ahead?
