    Tell me about Castles and Crusades

    It looks like it. For monsters its a function of # of HD rolled. Say a monster rolls 3d8 for HP.. They would get a +3 to their Prime check. At least thats how it reads to me. Addmittedly the explanation could be a bit more clear.

    Tell me about Castles and Crusades

    Its against AC 15 Touch attack is the only one that operates against AC 10. Least according to the info on pages 116-117 :)

    Tell me about Castles and Crusades

    Further down this was posted by Davis as clarification. we will correct mistakes. we will also clarify some rules and go into a little more detail on some (such as back attacks). We will correct the spells section and we already have a completely rewritten spell section with corrections...

    Tell me about Castles and Crusades

    Common misconception. It was never intended to be 'lite' 3rd ed. :) It's an OGL game base geared towards a certain philosophical game style.

    Tell me about Castles and Crusades

    Most of this will be covered in either the M&T or CKG where it belongs. ;) But I'll again note, in the base C&C system monsters dont have nor need attributes. All that sort of thing are optional extras that are likely to be addressed in one of the latter two books. Course if someone really...

    Tell me about Castles and Crusades

    Something of this nature is slated to be addressed in the CKG book, so the CK (DM if you prefer) can decide what level of this sort of detail he or she wants in their game. :)

    Tell me about Castles and Crusades

    *chuckles* I, for one, am not trying to push this as a 'better' system. I'm just trying to splain how it works, and the underlaying philosophy, to those who dont seem to grasp it. "Telling folks about C&C" in other words. :)

    Tell me about Castles and Crusades

    The rules are actually neither inconsistent or incomplete. They might seem that way to those used to more complex systems, but C&C as it stands, especially the boxed set, can be played as is with no modification. There are plenty of classes and races to work with for the beginner. Its all these...

    *chuckles* Me too! They blend much nicer with water.. But thats probably not what your talking about. :) Peter

    Tell me about Castles and Crusades

    Well. I could suggest that there are plenty of systems out there that aren't as strongly 'archtype' based as C&C. It is a game about strong archtypes after all. I'd guess what C&C is trying to get at with it being difficult to MC...is that its difficult to MC. One of those funny style things I...

    Tell me about Castles and Crusades

    *chuckles* UNFAIR. Its written in french. The rest of the site just sounds like a chap talking to himself about his view of the world. But as for the rest of your comments, we are getting into the realm of the subjective again and its kinda off the track on this topic. :)

    Tell me about Castles and Crusades

    Indeed it does. Some systems tend to be amenable to such things easier than others. The level of easy it is largely appears to be a function of subjective perspective as well. I dont believe there is a 'right' answer on this one. Not 'right' for everyone anyhow. :)

    Tell me about Castles and Crusades

    And I for one emphaticly agree. I have yet to meet a game that is intrinsicly 'bad'. Ive met some strange creatures who play games that wierd me out at times. But thats not the games fault. ANY game can work with anyone who wants to make it work. :) And Im the last person who's going to run...

    Tell me about Castles and Crusades

    I think ya missed the bit where i mentioned that one could 'make the shape shifting times per day. and even number of forms a function of level. :) That would get your shape shifter PrC more or less. I suggested the druid as a start point for the simple reason one could easily extrapolate a...

    Tell me about Castles and Crusades

    There seem to be several Blue Rose/C&C comparisons going on on different forums. Several folks seem to be discoursing on how efficiently the two systems can be used together. I dont recall threads off hand but that sort of inquiry is going on.

    Tell me about Castles and Crusades

    Hrm.. Take one druid, eliminate spells, lower the level of the shape change abilty, make the # of times per day of the shapechange some function of level. Quick way to create a shape shifter. Hit dice and Monster Primes Mental and Physical. Yup. Range can also be a function of dex modifiers...
