Re: Hex Crawl Awesomeness
Thanks for the response guys. Lots of good ideas and good advice. I just got the pdfs of the Wilderlands of High Fantasy, Players Guide of the Wilderlands, and a bunch of other stuff. I couldn't believe the price on the box set...though it would be sweet to snag it. I just have to be happy with the ...

Hex Crawl Awesomeness
I just discovered the awesomeness of the Hex Crawl, via the example pdf at Frog God Games. Could someone point me toward products that follow this format? I can't wait for the releases with FGG. Could someone point to the titles of other "Hex Crawl" sandbox style products? I am so in.

Re: Hardback CK Screen
Did my ears decieve me or did I just hear Steve announce hardback screens are coming in the future? The new video was very encouraging indeed. With the new bindery, there will be a a lot of cool stuff coming down the pike.
As to the screens, I am pretty pumped up about that.

Re: New World of Airhde in 2011
I hope that the new codex (and future Inzae products) has a dictionary style pronunciation guide; it would be cool to know I am not butchering the words. I find that in Airhde, and especially Inzae stuff, there are a surprising lack of vowels. The words look way cool because of it, but I am stupifie...

From the sound of it, you could sort through all the concepts and options and literally forge your own u...

Hardback CK Screen
With the ability to do their own hardcover books, I hope that also means the ability to do a hardback CK Screen; the hardcover screens for games like 4e and Dragon Age are really, really nice. For my 2 cents, I would hope for a 4 panel landscape screen. With my hobbit size, it is difficult to see th...

Re: Saving throws for Class-and-a-half characters
Hey Fin, the class and a half is an option listed at the back of the latest printing of the PHB. Basically, you pick a primary class, then you pick another class to be a supporting class; in essence, your character gets a few of the special abilities of the other class, but usually not all, and unli...

Re: New World of Airhde in 2011
I really want to see this in the upcoming year. The Codex is awesome, but hard on the eyes and a not-so-intuitive layout. The Folio is excellent, because it gives you just enough to get started and create your own world. I am guilty of enoying both approaches. That being said, I would like to see th...

Well, I get where you're going with the idea...a little like the Savage Worlds wound system which is ...er...fast and furious. With C&C though, rolling for damage is really an integral part of the game....without it, strength bonuses, various weapon sizes, magic bonuses....don't come into play. ...
