[QUOTE="Treebore, post: 2914921, member: 10177"] I've been running C&C for 8 months, if there is anything wonky about the game it is the DM. Yeah, it is very archetypical like 1E and 2E, but in C&C you can attempt to do any feat like maneuver from level one. Read my detailed posts on the first page of this thread. Also see what I did with skills. As for the xp differences, the classes in C&C are just as well balanced as 3E (meaning NOT), so make the xp tables the same. So 3E limits you to what feats and skills are written on your character sheet. In my C&C games your character is limited by your imagination, the rules, and your dice rolls. Plus I like a very free form, do what you want as long as it is cool, style. C&C gives me that, 3E locks you down. Yeah, I know what all you people still playing 3E are going to say about this, but unlike you I have been running C&C for over 8 months after playing/DMing 3E for about 4 years. C&C gives me what I want out of a rules system. 3E doesn't. If it gives all of you who still play an love 3E what you want, fantastic! It didn't give me what I want and I found C&C, so fantastic for me! So we are all happy! Fantastic for all of us! But if your someone unhappy with 3E, give C&C a seriously hard look. I want all of us happy playing something, rather than getting fed up and walking away from RPG's forever. [/QUOTE]
