Gary Gygax's Necropolis C&C questions

Post by JediOre »

Hi all,

Not that it will be using this anytime soon, but I'm re-reading this great module and am curious for opinions.

The module, it's 3.X, suggests levels 10-18 and 4-8 PCs. As is, with a straight conversion, how may PCs and of what level range would you guys suggest this be tackled with? What would you change or modify to make this module more C&C friendly?

Thanks for your thoughts.

Love the Necropolis a great deal and even included it in one of my campaign worlds but the PCs never made it to Khemet. In this case I don't really have a lot of help to offer, but am interested in seeing any thoughts nonetheless.

Doing a straight conversion, Necropolis d20 would be for 4-6 PCs of about 14th - 20th level. Some of it would be weak and easy, as expected, and others parts ungodly hard. I would rather do a straight conversion from the original source, however, so the added stuff is ignored.

Serleran, what was added in the d20 version?

How would you alter the d20 version to bring it into line with levels 9-12 or 10-14?

Several of the high end encounters and traps would need to be removed.
