Wow, I am surprised no one has noticed this before.

I take it you guys think the proposed ideas make sense and seem balanced against each other?

Why no Half-orc lineage?

<t>It seems weird to me there this is a difference between a half-elf with more human lineage and one with more elven lineage, and yet no difference for half-orcs.<br/> <br/> Why not make it so that Half-orcs with a more human lineage gain the same attribute check modification that half-elves with h...

I apologize if my post came across badly, I certainly was not intending to criticize your idea. I must have misunderstood your desire to offer additional class abilities since you were referring to them as feats.

<t>I have never used feats in C&C and I would be reluctant to do so, because I think feats like power attack, combat expertise, rapid shot, cleave, whirlwind attack, etc can be done in narration.<br/> <br/> If I were to allow feats I would only allow feats that can't be described in narration. F...

Thanks for the quick suggestions.

Sounds like a CK Screen is definitely a must.

Looking to make a Castles and Crusades purchase

I have 40 dollars to spend and I would like to purchase something for the Castles and Crusades game. I already have the Players and the Monsters and Treasures books.

So what else do I need to get and why?

<t>In regards to adding your level, it seems to me that since you add the relevant level of the monster you are facing to the CL that it ends up being a relative wash if you are fighting an equal opponent.<br/> <br/> So, opponents with effects that affect your non-Prime saves are going to likely req...

<t>Looking back, I realize that my initial idea was based on the idea that saves are difficult to make in C&C. A human as best has a 50% chance of having a chance of making the save. Demi-humans have 33% chance of having a chance.<br/> <br/> By reducing the number of save types, I was trying to ...

House Rule: Three Saves

<t>I am toying with the notion of using the three saving throws that 3.5 uses.<br/> <br/> I am thinking of adjusting it so that each class has at least 1 Prime Save.<br/> <br/> For example, a Fighter would have Fortitude as a Prime Saving Throw. The difficulty for a fighter making a Fortitude saving...
