I can't help but wonder--how many AD&D 1e players ARE there out there?

[QUOTE="tx7321, post: 3066837, member: 43146"] Thanks Ghul. Yes, I'm familiar with C&C now, like I said, its SIEGE Engine is too 3Eish (resolving everything based on consistant and predictable dice throws just like 3E, only in a simpler way). SIEGE is "gamey" (which isn't bad if thats what your aiming for) and needs to go back to the way AD&D handled it (tables and different save methods the GM chooses at will). If you remove SIEGE from your C&C game its very close to AD&D IMO. But your players will revolt, believe me. I believe TLG included SIEGE for a reason, first minimize a skills system, then get rid of it all together in a future C&C2. ;) Its a way of converting hard core 3Eers to a new way of thinking. Though, now that OSRIC is out of the bag, I don't think there will be a need for this. With 4E to be out soon, its more important then ever that all the old edition factions hold together. Its a small pot to begin with, and 4E will likely suck these new converts away and make it smaller (it'll be the shiney new toy). :( [/QUOTE]
