[QUOTE="Treebore, post: 3232405, member: 10177"] Its kind of a hybrid of all editons of D&D, that makes it very easy to play using material from any edition of D&D. You can look at products and such at [URL=http://www.trolllord.com]Troll Lord Games[/URL] The biggest complaint is that it got rid of feats and skill lists and went back to being "iconic" classes rather than a "build" system like 3E is. However, if I am able to use 3E monsters and materials in my games, how can that be true? Well, because it is and isn't true. Feats and skills are not in the "core" rules, but nothing keeps you from using them. As for the game itself, if you played back in the 1E days, you will feel like C&C is very familiar. But it uses positive AC's and saves are based on each of your stats. With the difficulty of the save determined by the level of the spell caster, and your save determined by several things. Which are your class level, stat bonuses, and something called Primes. Plus magic items still play into it, like they always have. Anyways, if it looks intriguing to you, and you would like a system capable of being played much simpler than 3E (it can be played simple, but obviously, since you can use whatever you want from 3E, it can also be made as complex as 3E) you can get the PH from Amazon for under $15.00. Or at your LGS for $20 plus tax. Or you can look at Troll Lords product catalogue and participate in their "Grab Santa's Sack" sale. Yes, that name strongly reflects the humor of the people at Troll Lord Games. [/QUOTE]
