Troll Lord Games

<t>My local store had all the stuff out, but because they weren't sure how much demand they were going to get, they limited everything to one piece per person. So I got the C&C quickstart.<br/> <br/> In the good news department, the store itself is open non-stop until their normal closing time o...

<t>Gloss pages are as bad as matte covers. They tend to take water very well.<br/> <br/> Some more "old school" goodness in store for the game with the old school feel.<br/> _________________<br/> NOTE TO ALL: If you don't like something I've said, PM me and tell me to my face, then give me a chance...

<t>I couldn't recall if you used C&C encumbrance or not. I was referring to the C&C PHB, since d20 Fantasy is ludus non grata with me. However, that REALLY highlights the fact that we'll have different answers from the RAW. <br/> _________________<br/> NOTE TO ALL: If you don't like somethin...

<t>The RAW has each coin weighing one ounce. While it is not spelled out, a coin has no appreciable EV when carried. If more than 10 are carried at one time, the EV is 1 per 10. Therefore, to answer your question, by the RAW...<br/> <br/> 100 coins in a large sack.<br/> <br/> 60 coins in a small sac...

<t>Well as Treebore explained, he sets gold to be 100 coin per pound. I went in the opposite direction. Realistically though, this only highlights the fact that the baseline assumptions for currency that I have differ from those of Treebore, and perhaps every other CK out there.<br/> <br/> 50cp = 1l...

Role playing games were originally about killing the monsters and taking their stuff. So let the PCs clean sweep. You can always correct the situation once they get outside, by having their gems turn to worthless stones, the gold turn to gold-plated lead, or my favorite example, killing the dragon a...

<t>You never can tell. You might find something you like in Airhde and want to transfer that wholesale over to Greyhawk to add a bit of flavor that Greyhawk may lack due to its "tabula rasa" design.<br/> _________________<br/> NOTE TO ALL: If you don't like something I've said, PM me and tell me to ...

<t>Nothing is stopping you from placing The Rising Knight in Greyhawk. It, and Lion In The Ropes, are both generic enough that they can be dropped into a single Greyhawk hex without modification.<br/> _________________<br/> NOTE TO ALL: If you don't like something I've said, PM me and tell me to my ...

<t>Well, the main thrust of the thread is Players Handbook errata, so paging through all the posts of this thread wouldn't have done you much good. However, do pass that errata on to the trolls, though I suspect the all seeing eye of Sauron has already noticed your post. <br/> Speaking of errata, I'...

<t>I know. I just want to get the "provisional" tags removed from the errata document.<br/> _________________<br/> NOTE TO ALL: If you don't like something I've said, PM me and tell me to my face, then give me a chance to set things right before you call a moderator.<br/> My small homage to E.G.G.</t>

I'll pass on that. It's just soooo '70s.

I usually don't care about historical progression in weaponry, but the Compendium does an awesome job of showing the progression of armor, as well as different types of ar...

<t>While the book sounds interesting from a historical standpoint, I think it may be too dense to use in gaming. I find that Palladium's Compendium of Weapons, Armor, and Castles is a good alternative.<br/> _________________<br/> NOTE TO ALL: If you don't like something I've said, PM me and tell me ...

<t>I haven't any idea why the Trolls don't host the errata, but I suspect it's because of why I started compiling the errata in the first place: the Trolls had way too much on their plates and didn't have the time to handle the numerous requests for errata.<br/> <br/> I'll have to remember to order ...

<t>Tonya is the daughter of the Titan Games owner. Their shipping is ridiculous and I do believe they've been added to the Shady Dealers thread on The Acaeum.<br/> <br/> I recommend staying away. After all, charging $13 shipping and handling for a one page item that costs perhaps a dollar or two pos...

<t>I just got a look at the free rpg day website, and the ONLY gaming store that is local to me is participating. Needless to say, I know what my Saturday is going to be like that day.<br/> <br/> I might have to be late to work, if I don't have the day off. <br/> _________________<br/> NOTE TO ALL: ...

<t>Some random thoughts regarding the two planets. You said "synchronous" orbit. Is one planet orbiting around the other? If not, then in sharing the orbit, how do these two planets share it? Does one planet follow behind the other? Is one planet always hidden from the sun from the view of the peopl...

<t>Oh no dude, your explanation was clear as a bell. I simply didn't read it right. As to the typo, I do believe it's been caught early enough that it won't be errata in the third print. If I understand the printing process correctly, the Trolls will receive a "blue line" copy of the book that they ...

<t>Mail Hauberk is listed in the Armaments listing on page 40. Hauberk in this instance refers to either a shirt of chain, or a shirt of scale. Since they are not differentiated in the equipment list, they very likely are intended to have the same AC bonus and cost. Now, since a hauberk is a shirt, ...

<t>Omote, why do some "Gygaxian Greyhawkers" hate Wars and FtA? In a nutshell, some hate post-Gygaxian Greyhawk because it represents the shadow of the POG/Witch/Bitch, a person who believed herself superior to gamers, and wanted to "show us how to run a business". She did too. She ran it into the g...

<t>I have to admit simontmn, I like that. Nice and simple. I bet you've not come across anyone complaining that the mantle of spell resistance is broken because it has a SR of 21.<br/> _________________<br/> NOTE TO ALL: If you don't like something I've said, PM me and tell me to my face, then give ...

<t>The Trolls have proofreaders on staff, and honestly, in the 2d printing of the PHB I found little in the way of typos, spelling errors, and grammar errors in that book. With the PHB going to a third print, and M&T going to a second print, while we might get a new crop of mechanics errors (I h...

Ask Peter or the Trolls that one.

<t>Well, I misread you, but I think we were both thinking the same thing. <br/> Lemme look in the book myself and I'll edit this post.<br/> <br/> [EDIT: This is in fact errata, but in the 2d print PHB ONLY. The 1st print has it correct, in that at 3d level, the ranger can tell what creature it is, a...

<t>When I read this, this is how I interpreted it. At 3d level you can determine the type. At 5th level, not only can you determine the type of creature, but whether it is wounded, exhausted, carrying heavy objects, etc.<br/> _________________<br/> NOTE TO ALL: If you don't like something I've said,...

Hopefully my errata monkey job will be rendered moot with this printing.

We're talking about this over at The Acaeum as well. I'm going to repeat here what I said there regarding this. I wrote: I don't see it as a crap decision since Dragon after 250 didn't support the real Dungeons & Dragons game, but that monstrosity whose popularity is only due to name recognition...
