Troll Lord Games

Does anyone use the C&C Rule Compendium? I like some of the classes I there and want to use them in my Wilderlands campaign, but I want to know if anyone has play tested them yet. Generally I will use them for NPC’s, but there may be one or two I would allow as player characters.

I believe Lord Seurek allowed a couple of them in his Myth Drannor game, but that was before the Rule Compendium was even compiled.

Seriously, no one else has tried any of these out?

I must be behind on this. What is the C&C Rules Compendium?

An issue that led to me leaving this forum for over a year. If you want a copy of it send me your e-mail.

I noticed you gone, Tree, but never realized it had to do with the compendium. I didn't realize that.

Wait...you talking about that crusader companion, Tree. If so, I do remember that. Ugh.

I thought it was alright. I don't think a lot of it got playtested, but that's my personal opinion. I don't think there was anything in there too game-breaking.

The Compendium was a completely different animal than the Companion. After having my memory refreshed I can see why the Compendium was so controversial. That said, I have to give praise to it as an attempt at making an SRD for C&C. However, the execution was questionable and needed to be revised to work as it should have.

Okay, so I think I remember the conversation (I think it was the one where the guy wanted to host it on the boards, Peter got involved, it got messy, etc., etc.) but I guess I have the wrong pdf in mind. I guess maybe I never had the Companion. Maybe Tree can send it to me, too...if you're listening, Tree...

The link to the Companion can be found here. It's the second download.

Well golly, I had no idea there was controversy...

I have both and as I remember, they were not all that different. I was giving thought to using a few of the classes. I want to dress up my NPC selection for my Wilderlands campaign. Keeping it simple however, is the key. I have been fiddling with different multi-class combinations. That would keep it basic C&C.

No, I do not use it.

My NPCs are only "classed" if they matter, and 99% do not.

Can't say I've used the classes just because there are so many already in core C&C.

I've used some of the monsters and items though.
