I just saw this quote over on the Paizo message boards from Erik Mona:

Pathfinder currently plans to support officially sanctioned conversions for Castles & Crusades and True 20

Dunno. I asked in the thread over there the following questions:

1. Are the conversions something you are just considering at this point or is it quite likely to happen?

2. Assuming the conversions do happen, what form will they take? I can wish for actual print versions but thats probably not very likely.

3. And finally. When can we C&C fans expect to see these conversions?

Hopefully Eric or one of the other Pazoites will chime in with the answers.

DD's post is on page 6 of that thread, for anyone "looking" and not posting.

Sounds like great news. Just downloaded their free players guide thingie to have a look at. The more options for settings the better and since they seem to have some quality writers (either on staff or submitting), their adventure path stuff should be pretty good.

That is really cool! A reason for me to really want to buy Pathfinder.

Looked over the Pathfinder website and most of Paizo's stuff as well. I'm very impressed and may see about giving their stuff a try.

I have to admit, Paizo is moving from a company that I never cared much about to one that I must admit has some talent.

I picked up a number of their products here lately and have found them to be quite useful.

I'm a subscriber to their Gamemastery line of modules now too.

If you gents would be a little patient for a day or two, I'll get Steve to post some answers. Right now, the TLG dudes are unloading their truck and I suspect will be catching up on the z's for a day or so.
But as to #1, yes it's likely to happen. Details beyond that I don't have.

Nice. Look forward to hopefully seeing some answers later this week.

Even though their stuff is mostly d20 based they do look like a company run by gamers and that helps alot.

They are. Almost as friendly as TLG.

That's good to hear and they seem to have their fingers on the gaming pulse. Apparantly C&C and True 20 are getting more popular than I thought.

I am looking at maybe doing the conversion, but am waiting to see what I might be getting myself in to. I talked to one of the Paizo guys and it looks like everyone is really pumped to get Pathfinder C&C compatible.

I just hope it doesn't get sloughed off into the "to do" pile. If there are going to be conversions I'd hope they would be as regular as Pathfinder releases.
