<t>I think that I agree with Serleran on this, as well.

<t>That's interesting. I can't say I have ever encountered that kind of hostility over at Knights & Knaves.

Heh, you were Ghul, Rhuvein? I have to admit, I was actually quite surprised by your decision. That Thread pretty much went the way I expected it to, but I guess I can understand why you pulled the plug. Some people have strong feelings about things that to others may appear trivial, which I think i...

<t>There's a locked Thread over at Knights & Knaves where opinions were voiced in the last few months. I was actually quite surprised to find that OSRIC is not filtered out of this Forum, as I had understood the case to be the contrary. I take it Labyrinth Lord isn't either? <br/> Anyway, if you...

<t>Most of my adventures in Oerth took place in and around the Free City of Greyhawk. That was because the DM was using the 2e Boxed Set and 1e Hardback.

No, no. It only becomes a problem when your players start questioning you about it in detail and their suspension of disbelief comes crashing down because you haven't thought of a satisfactory answer... Sure, you can get round it by telling them not to think about it too much, but that's not much of...

<t>I use the -10 Rule, with some modification. The way I run it, is that no significant wounds have been dealt a character, unless he is brought to 0 Hit Points or below. We don't count down Rounds from bleeding, but every -1 a Character has suffered requires 10 Days rest and until then each -1 also...

csperkins1970 wrote: Hmmm... good point. I wonder how much it would unbalance things to total the attribute mods for dual-attribute saves. In the C&C games I play, ability mods tend to be pretty low, so it wouldn't be much of an issue. As it is, I find saves to be a bit tough in C&C anyway....
