    khavren- C&C is "rules lite" rpg based on alot of the OGC stuff from D&D stripped down then rebuilt. Its sort of similar to older DnD like old Basic or 1 ed AD&D. Heres a link to Troll Lord Games who have developed the game http://www.castlesandcrusades.com/candc.htm

    Castles and Crusades: A Lion in the Ropes (Full)

    This thread is for our Castles and Crusades powered game. We'll be running the Troll Lords module A Lion in the Ropes. The module will be set in the world of Greyhawk for purposes of deities and flavor, but will otherwise have little bearing on the module. My 2 houserules: 1. Backpacks are...

    Middle Earth - LotR

    I dont think this was mentioned ..but try www.merp.com they have a ton of the old ICE stuff, much for download. Theyve also pretty good forums and fan based stuff. A great fan site of a defunct system. Regardless of what system you end up using, its a nice resource.

    [d20 Past] The Great War as an RPG setting

    Another thing you could do is to place your campaign on the geographica periphery of the Great War. WWI wasnt as world spanning as WWII, and large parts are the globe arent as directly affected, though it did have other effects on those regions. A campaign centering on intrigue, mystery or...

    video cards

    Just an added question that may be pertinent- was the computer put together by you or a local OEM shop? Or is it a brand name (Dell, compaq, etc) and was it bought "off the shelf". I ask since it some brand boxes are not very upgradable or are difficult to upgrade.

    Eve Online - anyone got reports?

    You may have already, but Id check out ign's rpg vault and gamespys dedicated MMO page (if any) for Eve Online. IIRC, it got pretty favorable reviews. But its premise of being reeeaaaalllly open ended and almost a life simulator makes it seem to maybe be just for the hardest of the hardcore...

    The Problem with Star Wars

    Dang mojo..you beat me too it. I have to say..I have been prone to Lucas bashing myself..and Ive also got caught up in the hyperbole fueled attacks on rumors and second guessing that surrounds the prequels. As Ebert says in his review, telling the story in the prequel is harder. We know how...

    Freedom Force vs. The 3rd Reich

    Hmm this game haspeaked my interest. Ive finally taken a break from World of Warcraft to dl the demo and it looks nice - the devs seem to have tweaked some of the original games interfaces clunkiness. And multiplayer will hopefully be better-but thne again it was practically nonexistent. It...

    Venture Brothers..Like it or not and why?

    I love it..one of the few shows on AS that has a story line, just isnt stream of conscious, schtcik stuff. I had originally feared the show would just be a Jonny Quest rip off spoff, but its a great comedic takes on all manner of geek themes : superheroes, Hanna Barabara cartoons and super...

    World of Warcraft rant

    Even if you made the AH an instance, and didnt make it large (which would be inconvenient for players) you would have congestion and lag for the AH users. There is no easy answer anywhere alot of players want to be for important stuff, theres going to be congestion. I can recall Asherons Calls...

    World of Warcraft questions.

    I agree with what others said. Id get more RAM. The rest of your settings will be adequete, WoW seems rather scalable and its art, while pretty isnt as polygon heavy as EQ2. Youll probably have to run the game at lower resolutions and with some of the graphical detail off or turned down, but...

    World of Warcraft rant

    If you have "lag" while on the griffon ride , then that is most likely visual slowdown casued somehow by your visual settings/ vid card/ memory. The AH is almost all server load. A faster CPU/card may help a little, but at peak times there aint nothin you can do....especially when all the...

    Star Trek: Enterprise has been canceled

    Well.. I too have mixed feelings. However, I really havent enjoyed Trek since DS9 went off the air. I dont know maybe its that familiarity breed contempt, or that the franchise has become too franchisey and formulaic. The actors have seemd to be the same, with too little chemistry. The...
