Greetings.
Has TLG or any fan produced expanded treasure tables to include the possible loots in all the hardcover C&C Monster & Treasure books?
Expanded Treasure Tables
Re: Expanded Treasure Tables
I do not recall seeing any such thing.
Since its 20,000 I suggest "Captain Nemo" as his title. Beyond the obvious connection, he is one who sails on his own terms and ignores those he doesn't agree with...confident in his journey and goals.

Re: Expanded Treasure Tables
Isn't it just the M&T and the M&T of Aihrde that has such material in it?
Just make up a percentage table for the books you want to use for "treasure"...
01 to 20-M&T Treasure
21 to 40- M&T of Aihrde
41 to 60-Use book 3
61 to 80-use book 4
81 to 00-use book 5.

Re: Expanded Treasure Tables
Classic Monsters just has monsters. No magic treasure. Don't know about others.Treebore wrote:Isn't it just the M&T and the M&T of Aihrde that has such material in it?

Re: Expanded Treasure Tables
M&T of Aihrde has an alphabetical listing of treasure but no tables. From what I have read in it you are better off not having some of the stuff from the book show up randomly.

AD&D per se is as dead a system as Latin is a language, while the C&C game has much the same spirit and nearly the same mechanics. --Gary Gygax 8/16/06

Re: Expanded Treasure Tables
I only use random tables for the lowliest of magic items. E.G.G. had particular admonishments for DM's about this:
"Just as it is important to use forethought and consideration in placing
valuable metals and other substances with monsters or otherwise hiding
them in dungeon or wilderness, the placement of magic items is a serious
matter. Thoughtless placement of powerful magic items has been the
ruination of many a campaign. Not only does this cheapen what should be
rare and precious, it gives player characters undeserved advancement and
empowers them to become virtual rulers of all they survey. This is in part
the fault of this writer, who deeply regrets not taking the time and space in
D&D to stress repeatedly the importance of moderation. Powerful magic
items were shown, after all, on the tables, and a chance for random
discovery of these items was given, so the uninitiated DM cannot be
severely faulted for merely following what was set before him or her in
the rules. ..."
I still remember reading that when he 1st wrote it decades ago.

Re: Expanded Treasure Tables
Not quite, but I have greatly expanded the treasures that are available.

I still use the 1e AD&D treasure tables when I need to roll for treasure -- namely, the one from Unearthed Arcana but skipping or re-rolling for items when deemed necessary. As it should be.
