<t>It would be nice, for those of us with earlier editions, to not have to buy this book, but instead have a nice PDF Errata.............<br/> _________________<br/> "If everyone was drunker, was beer cheaper?

That's pretty sweet man... I like it.

<t>I think that Assassins should be able to pick locks... unfortunately, game balance is a problem...<br/> <br/> If want to be able to pick locks, and still Assassinate stuff... play a Thief who Assassinates people... kinda like in 2E lol.<br/> _________________<br/> "If everyone was drunker, was be...

<t>The d20 has always been the main focus of all the games I've played too, D&D and Palladium mainly. But, both of these games use/used d100 for skill checks.<br/> <br/> The best part of it? Percentage chance straight roll to determine success just makes SOOOO much sense. You have a 55% chance t...

<t>Another thought too is that some FLGS actually shrink wrap product that isn't shrinkwrapped to keep them more mint on the shelf - they just do it themselves. One of the FLGS near me does/did this.<br/> <br/> Anyone have a copy of CZ2 they can find for me or sell me for say $50 US? I so missed the...

<t>I do basically what Treebore does but:<br/> <br/> 1d4, reroll 1's<br/> <br/> 1d6, reroll 1-2's<br/> <br/> 1d8, reroll 1-3's<br/> <br/> 1d10, reroll 1-4's<br/> <br/> 1d12, reroll 1-5's<br/> <br/> It's generous, but still random, giving above average, but not maximum HPs.<br/> _________________<br/...

<t>If you find that things are getting less lethal at higher levels (for both monsters and PCs) and you feel that that your fights are too long (too much, I hit, hit, hit hit again again and again) because of hit point escalation, then you can make all monsters get a bonus to damage based on HD, and...

<t>If you want it simpler, but don't want to ignore movement, try this:<br/> <br/> You can move your movement rate, and have all your attacks in one round.<br/> <br/> If you want to move more than your movement rate, and attack, then you need to charge. You can then move up to twice your movement ra...

<t>Hey folks, long time no visit...<br/> <br/> Well, on this topic I've always thought that AC modifiers didn't even make as much sense as say DR (damage reduction) for huge monsters. Think about it... Using a Dagger on that Wyrm just shouldn't work - it's not even long enough! If you want something...

<t>Well, one thing about C&C, if you like an older version of Monk from 1E, then just drop in! It's really that simple, just assign a prime and convert thief abilities. You can even drop in martial arts from O.A. or the 2E Ninja's Handbook...<br/> _________________<br/> "If everyone was drunker,...

<t>You would think that with all the time, for a long time, that people have had issues with certain classes (Barbarian!) that there would be a bloody (no pun intended) errata for it.... <br/> _________________<br/> "If everyone was drunker, was beer cheaper?

<t>Well, I guess it depends on your background.<br/> <br/> If you like old-school (1e, 2e D&D) and dislike the clutter, strategy game feel, and over mathematic intensive 3.x D&D... you may like C&C.<br/> <br/> If you want something simple, you may like C&C.<br/> <br/> If you like mak...

<t>Well, guess I will bring up AD&D 2nd ed. again. Elven chain, I think, should effect rogue abilities something like Studded Leather would. 2nd ed ahd something like this, and I feel it was about right.<br/> _________________<br/> "If everyone was drunker, was beer cheaper?

<t>It think this goes to show how armor really should work as both AC and Damage Reduction. This would fix the strength adding to damage issue. Light weapons and single handed weapons would be far less effective against full plate, compared to a very strong warrior with high strength and a two-hande...

<t>Actually, with burning hands, I like it as written. Otherwise, it's pretty useless.<br/> <br/> Burning Hands 1d2, +1 level @ 15th = 1d2+15 (max 17 and has no range, few targets)<br/> <br/> Magic Missile 1d4+1 x 1 ea. 3rd level @ 15th = 6d4+6 (max 30, but has range)<br/> <br/> Hmmmm.<br/> <br/> Bu...

<t>I like the idea that Dex offsets the penalties, and that Str does not add a To-hit bonus when dual-wielding. Mainly for balance. Othewise, the ultimate warrior with high Str and high Dex, will always dual-wield (due to mechanics, yes, of course, some people role play, but we're talking mechanics ...

<r>Well, I'm not going to re-write what others have already written, but I'll make some of my own points.<br/> <br/> The first thing I'll point out is: Like any PnP RPG, there is no "you can win or can't win". It's all in the campaign. Some people say there is no point in playing Midnight, because t...
