Raistlin is covered by another magic class I'm using (I have 9 including Wizard and Illusionist).

I'm sure many would love to see them as they get fleshed out.

Mana recovery is 5 per hour of sleep or 10 per hour of rest. Isn't this backwards? Shouldn't you get more during sleep than just rest?...

<r>I think there are a lot of similarities with the FUDGE community due to the nature of the game. FUDGE is supposed to be tweaked to one's needs....so too with C&C.<br/> <br/> ~AoB<br/> _________________<br/> ~Adaen of Bridgewater, <URL url="http://www.highadventuregames.com">www.highadventureg...

Just wondering if anyone has made a mod for Metacreator software by Alter Ego for C&C ?

I'm not familiar with that one...what's it for?

I find using Engineering Dungeons (shameless self-plug) can work precisely for this.

<r>Well, I finally got mine (I somehow fell thru the cracks....the Trolls quickly sent it to me once I got ahold of one of them on PM). It definitely is nice to have a print mag again (I gave up on Dragon a little while before it went to its current all-electronic format)<br/> <br/> It is definitely...

This got me thinking....has anyone tried NBOS Screenmonkey/Skype for online games with or without C&C?

<r>If part of your preferences in RPG's is the skillful allotment of resources, then I would go your route (limited 0-levels w/o prior prep).<br/> <br/> From my perspective, there are other games that cater to my needs for resource management (actually D&D 3E is quite good for this). For most ga...

<r>You might consider allowing the casting of all 0-level spells for free. I don't find that it unduly impacts on the power-level and allows the spell-casters to be somewhat useful once their main spells are gone.<br/> _________________<br/> ~Adaen of Bridgewater, <URL url="http://www.highadventureg...

<r>For those who are interested, I took the trouble to compare the probabilities of the hi(2d20) [take the hi result of 2 d20 rolls) vs a std. d20 roll. The first column is the % Prob of the hi(2d20), the third column is the standard d20 %Prob, and the second is the result that corresponds to both.<...

I'm in NJ so I suppose I should have it by now....
