[CoC] New Feats and Rules

[mearls]

Howdy folks,

I just kicked off my new d20 CoC web page. You can find it at:

http://www.mearls.com/cthulhu/index.html

So far, I have a few feats, new rules for sanity, and some new rules for skills. I'm going to attempt weekly updates to the page, my normal game design schedule permitting.

Good stuff ya gots there! Thanks for the hook up.

Your site hates me. It's hiding. I can't find it or connect to it. Am I supposed to do something other than click the link?

That's strange. I noticed it's responding a bit slowly at the moment, but I can still connect. Try copying and pasting the URL into a browser window. The site is hosted by Cedant and the name should've propogated to all the DNS servers by now.

It was working a few minutes ago, but I can't seem to get it right now either.

What I did see looked really good. I can't wait to see more CoC d20 goodies from you!

Thanks, Mike!

Great feats, Mike! Can't wait for the rest of the site to come up!

I didn't have any problems with the site not coming up, and just rechecked it after reading the above posts.

Site worked first time for me, not a problem at all.

The stuff looks great, but my local gaming store's CoC copy is still clearing customs

I think the requirement to pick up cross-class skill ranks before the skill becomes class is only reasonable. After all it represents coming into a new area of training, and you have to have done some round work. However, you may wish to waive the quaification in special case 'related' skills (although none spring to mind, maybe modern/ancient history?)

The Mental hardness is a nice rule.
I've never really like when a veteran investigator sees his 101th Deep One still has the same shocking reaction. I mean, after having seen fifty zombie attacks, an investigator should be a bit used to zombies, shouldn't he?
Your sanity rule is perfect to represent that

Thanks for the feedback and words of encouragement. I hope the site is working for everyone now. If anyone still has problems connecting, drop me a line at:
