Glad, your work is excellent. I like the ones you did for the web banners in particular.

I just had a "well dah?" moment. I somehow missed the Extra Attack ability of the fighter. I now see what is going on with this class.

That is all.

<t>I guess I'm in the minority, but I'm fine with the paper in the 3rd printing. Maybe it's because it seems similar to the paper in my 3.X core books.<br/> <br/> Other than that, I'm for alphabetizing the classes.<br/> _________________<br/> Lord Frost<br/> <br/> Baron of the Pitt<br/> Castles &...

Yeah, I wouldn't recommend this for background music either.

<t>The ages of those in my crowd ranges from early 30s to early 40s. We actually play 3.5 and I do like the system. C&C is my "rainy day" system because it is so easy to make PCs, etc. I also plan on using it if I ever start a new campaign.<br/> <br/> I really like C&C *and* 3.5 and see the ...

Wish my copy would get here already... I'm really eager to check this thing out.

<t>My "problem" has been all the great sales due to the onset of 4e. I typically don't buy much, but I couldn't pass up the deals (especially since a lot were for products that would soon be pulled off shelves). I've bought more this past year than I have in a long time.<br/> <br/> The good news is ...

Nice... this is my first issue. I'm eagerly awaiting it.

<t>It's an interesting approach. I don't think any version of D&D has done that, has it? Usually they put a key in each module and the use a stat block throughout.<br/> <br/> It doesn't bother me, though. It's the "un-stat block" stat block. <br/> _________________<br/> Lord Frost<br/> <br/> Bar...

Another option would be an Unearthed Arcana-style book for new and alternate classes.

<t>My C&C is growing and I grow more and more pleased with the material.<br/> <br/> I have a question about the stat block. Is there are reason for its conversational style? For example, it usually says, "His primary attributes are.... He carries....." This isn't universal, though. Some entries ...

<t>I took advantage of the 12th Day of X-mas sale and bought the Crusader magazine & Yggsburgh bundle. I bought the bundle more for the magazine than Yggsburgh, but I am exceptionally happy that I got this book. I haven't read any of Gygax's work in a long time and man does this book take me bac...

<t>Yeah, that detail really brought me around. The map background has always seemed like a C&C trademark to me. I didn't notice it at first on the new cover. The map is key.<br/> _________________<br/> Lord Frost<br/> <br/> Baron of the Pitt<br/> Castles & Crusades Society<br/> The Dungeonee...

<t>My initial reaction was negative, but the new cover is growing on me. I think the key thing that says "C&C book" to me is the map background. It's hard to see on the site, but it's still there. That's good for me. The reasoning for the change seems sound to me.<br/> _________________<br/> Lor...

I took a look again at the new cover for M&T today... it's starting to grow on me. Is that red section solid red or is that map pattern there too?

<t>ThrorII, thanks for the explanation. That helps a lot. I do think I'd stick with normal C&C armor class rules rather than adding in Conan defense rules if I convert this. It is very interesting to hear how Conan is played.<br/> _________________<br/> Lord Frost<br/> <br/> Baron of the Pitt<br...

Yeah, that's a hell of a lot of foam. His wife took it like a champ though. Anyhow, just a bit of fun.

<t>First off, excellent news all around from Steve.<br/> <br/> I have to say, I'm not too hot on the new cover design, but, hey, can't please everyone all of the time. It reminds of Goodman Games new covers for their 4e Dungeon Crawl Classics. But, again, it's a cover. To be clear, I do really like ...
