Added some conventions which I know the Trolls attend, in some way or other. If there are more, please feel free to let me know and they will be added. Thanks!

Thanks!

Serl, you may want to update Raven's Keep since it has reopened.

I've added some things. The one listed as a review is a very nicely written, in-depth discussion on the game. I recommend pointing others to it.

Hi Serl,

I would like to share some online tools which I found to be particularly useful :
Wizard's D&D tools archive (some of which are C&C compatible)
Weather generator (very easy of use)
Dungeon generator (offline version also available)

Also, I would be grateful if you could change my link so that it reaches my web page instead of my house rules (I intend to make some other stuff available to you guys )

One last thing (about english ), I noticed that you have referenced my page as being "Metathiax' House Rules" instead of "Metathiax's House Rules". I'm curious to know if it is a typo to have a " 's " after a "x". Sorry to bother you with such a trivial matter but it would look kind of dumb if I kept an error in my own page title (english is not my first language so I might have missed some rules about contractions...).
Thanks!

Because Metathiax is a singular proper noun, ending in x (same rule as for ending in s, as far as I know), it does not get an 's ending, but the simple apostrophe alone. Had the name not been proper, it would be correct to say Metathiax's House Rules.
Possessive Grammar should help clear up the confusion. Z, X, and S follow the same rules, as far as I know.

I'll add the other links.

Interesting. So double proper nouns . . . Gary Gygax's Lejendary Adventures - on the Lejendary Rules book is correct, then?

Updated some of the links, and added a few more. One might note that my site has been emptied, so it is no longer supported.

This decision is nothing against C&C or its fans, of which I am one. However, I would prefer to have my own webspace (rather than being a leech on another) and am contemplating the financial viability of my work. Maybe even start my own TLG-licensed projects... don't know yet.

As long as you can publish on a more reliable schedule than the Trolls, which shouldn't be hard, I'll buy.
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.
Sounds obvious to me! -Gm Michael

Who're you kidding? You'll buy them regardless of their publishing schedule just because they'll be chock full of C&C goodness. You're a junkie just like the rest of us!

Admitting your condition is the first step, Treebore. We're all here for you.

serleran,

Feel free to add my site to the list now. I have enough up there now, to longer feel "embarrassed" at the lack of completion.

I don't seem to have the link. I thought I put it in a text file for later use, but it must have been wiped when I formatted. Sorry, can you post it, or PM me?

Has the link for the Beacon of Enon Tor been included somewhere on TLG? I couldn't find it, so I'll post here. Hopefully it's not a duplicate post.

For the record, I don't think that's the case. It's only true for S's.

Anyway, thanks for the hard work in keeping up with all these links!

I have a few more suggestions to add to the list. They are not directly C&C-related though, so you be the judge of their relevance...
The Hypertext d20 SRD
AD&D 2nd Edition Monstrous Manual
Blue Troll's Netbooks
Ultimate Art Gallery
Dungeon Master Utilities
Medieval Kingdom Generator
DungeonForge

Also, maybe you should update the unofficial errata links to those found on Traveller's site.

Thanks!

In a couple of week, I'd like to put some C&C house rules up on the web. Is there anyone who'd gracious enough to host these items. I'm afraid I don't have a server or the computer savy to this at all.

I wouldn't mind doing so but I think you would be better off to entrust your document(s) to http://www.cncplayer.net/.

Hi All,

I would like to introduce the Nook, it is a GM/CK's resource for mapping, game content and reviews. It is C&C friendlysince it is my favoritebut also provides content/conversions for d20 systems as well. We have a bunch of original mapping objects for use in your favorite mapping programs and virtual tabletops. We hope you enjoy the site.
