Wow, no kidding! This made my entire year. I remember there was a thread on what our perfect version of D&D would be like and I responded with: I knew when I was typing it out it was just a pipe dream. The hobby as a whole seemed to be marching in the exact opposite direction and I knew, much...

I too am still loving this system. That said, I finally picked up Dragonbane. I think I might have found my new "large campaign" system. That said, it's not replacing Shadowdark for short and focused dungeon crawls; with limited time to game, Shadowdark will be the one to hit the table for...

I remember thinking that was a real possibility at one point. Then 5E dropped... Still silently hoping for the day though...

If I were to run it, I'd probably use Baptism of Fire. A game by Pundit I talked about on this thread here. Strikes me as just the right magic/power level with a quasi-realistic setting that fits ASOIAF pretty well. His older games like Lion & Dragon and Dark Albion have resources that can be...

@Dannyalcatraz I wonder what truff mayo would taste like in a chicken recipe like this one? 😋

Walmart carries it now!

For mayo, been using Heavy like the restaurants for Ranch, Raising Cane's Sauce, potato/mac salad. Kewpie for sushi, bang bang sauce, and creamy Siracha sauce. Also been my go to for sandwiches since it's easy to squeeze on. If you never made your own though, highly recommend it. Pretty...

You know, with some tweaking this method would actually work... I'd use: Can a typical adventurer do it? If so, say yes. Is failure probable for a trained adventurer? If yes, go to 5. Is failure interesting? If yes, go to 5. Say yes, and done. Is there an opposing force? If so, set a roll...

Had some time tonight, so made an attempt to hack C&C to match 3.5 more closely. Target Number (TN) = 17 Choose 3 Attributes that are Prime, these get a +6 bonus. 3.5 DC to C&C CL conversion: DC 5 = CL -10 (Easy) DC 10 = CL -5 (Average) DC 15 = CL 0 (Tough) DC 20 = CL 5 (Challenging) And so...

Agree. One of the aspects of C&C I don't like is how hard that number is to sus out. A "DC" of 1 in C&C is the difficulty that a Level 1 character competent (Prime) at the task and gifted in ability (Attribute bonus) has a 50% shot of succeeding at. Increase the DC to 3 and someone untrained...

@dead Also, C&C is great for spur of the moment gaming. Coming up with DCs relative to the characters on the fly is a bit easier than static DCs as they stand in the world, IMO.

Completely get what you're saying (and by default there is a range of -10 to 30). When I was first modifying C&C, static DCs is what I was originally shooting for, but because of the nature of C&C SIEGE system, a wide range of DCs just isn't needed. This is mostly due to three reasons: Really...

My goal for C&C is when I call for a check a player need only to roll a d20 and see if it's higher the the number written down next to that stat. Also, I'm huge supporter of the Tertiary Attribute optional rule in the CKG. Basically, Humans choose 3 Primes, 2 Secondaries, 1 Tertiary...

I was at Mad Jack's in New Mexico and was floored by how long the line was despite getting there 30 min before opening. By the time I got to the counter there were already crossing out items on the menu! I learned my lesson though. Good BBQ is absolutely worth waiting in line for.

We made these: 100% not just a gimmick. Honestly, really good and everyone that has tried them has liked them!

My thoughts too, haha. Crazy how much good material there is out there now. For instance, I'm heavily into OSR, but somehow still missed The Valley of Flowers campaign setting. It looks absolutely fantastic!

Certainly rooting for Shadowdark!!! It's been over a year now and still absolutely loving it. Also, thought it was neat to see Justin Alexander's book here. Despite his unpopular online personality, he does write some great stuff.

Also worth pointing out, this is the first version I've seen that has really made a DEI effort as far as the art is concerned. Representation was certainly a new priority for the Trolls. That said, I'm one of those who didn't back it since I have little interest in a "non-D&D" C&C. That's kind...
