[QUOTE="Arravis, post: 4200193, member: 327"] Thanks :). There are a number of reasons why it is easier to make props for CoC than D&D. The 1920's and 30's are a well-known, and relatively recent, era. I can go out and buy items from that time (or items that look it) from antique shops and flea markets. Since it is a somewhat more recent time, it's also easier to generate original props. I can look up what a deed looks like, and re-create it fairly easily. I can use photographs, and all kinds of other modern resources. With D&D, its much more difficult. I can't easily do artwork and such of the period. Plus, my knowledge of it, is much, much less. Not through lack of research, but simple lack of exposure. In many ways the 1920's still permeate this era. [/QUOTE]
