Greyhawk Conversions?

Post by Lucifer_Draconus »

Has anyone done conversions of Greyhawk for C&C ? Or are there any good sites with such conversion notes on them?

Like.. what do you need converted?

From AD&D to C&C there are only really two things to concern yourself with.

1) Flip the AC

2) Add primes

What else do you feel is needed?

There's this site but, then again, Greyhawk can pretty much be used as is. In my house rules, available on my web page, I also offer a list of the major deities to be used in my own campaign. However, it does deviate from canon Greyhawk material in many instances. What are you looking for, specifically, in terms of conversion?

Very little in terms of setting stuff. Probably not even much with monsters. Just depends on how you want the end result to be.

For example, when I convert 3E monsters I often drop/lose/cut off/remove (whatever adjective you want to use) whatever feats and skills I don't want to use. Then if it is a skill I want to keep and I just note it. Then the creature can perform that skill as if it is a class ability. If I think they shoulod be really good at it I'll treat them has having a Prime in the relevent stat.

Feats are just something you can attempt in my game. So I note any feats it has, and I like, so that in play I'll let it roll to attept these "special moves".

So its all in how you want it to be.
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.

I run C&C in two worlds/settings, my homebrew the Rhuinlands and in Greyhawk. I have had to do zero conversion for my GH games.
