[QUOTE="nsruf, post: 1716076, member: 872"] Good call. I like the randomness introduced by declaring in advance, but was never sure about how specific declarations should be, and how to keep track of a lot of them at once (see below). This part was completely glossed over by 2E rules, and AFAIK by earlier edition rules as well. The Rules Cyclopedia doesn't even mention that you have to declare in advance (bad editing, I suppose). I'm not worried about keeping track of different numbers. It's having to remember the 24 distinct action declarations of 6 players, 12 goblins and 6 ogers that always got me confused in 2E. Disrupting spellcasters would have to be done with readied actions and thus happen less often, but that's the only problem I see either. I'll just have to try which system works better for me, once I get my hands on C&C. And thanks to all the playtesters for doing the Q&A stuff here. I could always create a DF account, but they'd probably flame me to a crisp over there for believing that 3.5 is a decent system up to level 10 or so;) [/QUOTE]
