[QUOTE="Sir Apropos, post: 167816, member: 744"] It would depend on whether you wanted to run a fantasy horror campaign or a modern day horror campaign. I haven't had a look at the new 3E Ravenloft book but I am familiar with the 2nd edition stuff and it was a pretty decent horror fantasy campaign. But it's still D&D fantasy. However, I have picked up the new CoC D20 and love it. Mainly because it's all about telling a story rather than a lot of hack and slash monster killing. CoC is a simpler, rules light version of D&D. No AoO, No classes, mainly a Skill based investigative kind of game. I'm looking forward to running a new campaign because I'll have some first time D20 player's and they will not have a lot of rules to learn. D20's simple skill task resolution system works well for CoC. The Feats are less combat oriented and more skill oriented. All in all I think CoC would make a better horror campaign than Ravenloft but that's just my opinion. In the end it's probably best to take a look at the reviews on this website and decide for your self. [/QUOTE]
