Has damage from a natural lightning strike ever been established anywhere?

Call Lightning is a natural lightning strike, a bolt that does d10 per caster level.

That makes sense. I think it might be possible for 4 people to grapple one character, but more likely I would use the overbearing rules in that case. Yes, that would seem to have to be the activity it would devolve into based on the size of the combatants. It's what I tend to have opponents do when...

If the CK takes into account encumbrance of armor, then you would have an advantage in speed. Being able to outrun opponents can be a benefit, even if it's to run away, or hit and run tactics. You'll generally be safe from Heat Metal spells. If you're travelling in a hot climate you will be much les...

Starting an Amazing Adventures game on Tuesday and I need a couple more players.

Thanks for the invite old school gamer, but AA just ain't my bag.

I would typaclly allow the relavent attribute bonuses to stack. I also usually have the character with Prime roll. Gives the PCs a better chance to succeed. R- How would you handle something like 4 hobgoblins trying to grapple a human at the same time? What would the hobgoblins get as a bonus?

Barkskin... too powerful.... touch vs self... I see a druid doing it only to self... and little need to do it to the fighter or cleric since it does not stack with armor (I think)... so you barkskin up the mage or a thief.. big deal... let it be either... or self at start and with a WIS check they ...

We are still running the Monday night group. Tree just started a new C&C campaign and one of the new guys is running a supers game on alternating weeks.

R-

Good to know Rigon, glad you guys are still at it after all these years.

Haven't gamed C&C since we all gamed together last, although I think it's still my favorite rpg for fantasy for sure.

Am up pour a game.

Awesome, that makes two players, haven't gamed with you guys in ages.

Hey Kayolan. Been a long time! Lord Seurek hasn't donned these halls in a quite some time as well. I haven't played c&c in several years but may be up for a game in the future if you are running. You are of course welcome to join my friend, I am in fact looking to run a game, been reading my C&C bo...

I haven't been around for a while, haven't played or run any C&C in a long time. Are any of you still playing or running any C&C games? Looking to run a game myself or possibly also join a game.

Sadly, the image is no longer available.

I could've sworn I read about assisting bonuses for siege checks somewhere in the CKG but I just can't seem to find it anywhere

I was thinking about how I want to rule multiple grappling opponents on a single figure.

serleran, you said in the beginning it was a range of touch. AD&D had it as touch also. Maybe a typo crept in during editing of a printing. Might want to check with the powers that be...

That is strange. Was it changed because it was considered to be too powerful or prone to abuse?

Grandpa, I don't think anyone was suggesting adding levels to bonuses, but adding levels to abilities, like moving silently, hearing, etc. Not bonuses to saves or attack rolls.

Reread what was written. There was NO distinction made.

Ah, well that explains the source of confusion then.

Is any of this material available? I realize that print is probably out of the question, but are pdfs up for sale anywhere?

DriveThru has them.

R-

Cool!

Well that makes sense now. I can see why it was changed.

Barkskin has a range of "Self". Is that the same as having a range of "Touch"? Can you caste it on other people?

You both make good points. I'm just trying to figure out how a 10th level elf fighter who has been adventuring in the woods for most of his career would not be better at moving silently in that wilderness than a 1st level elf fighter. I assume that the racial abilities are being practiced over time ...

This is great, thanks for sharing!

I only add levels for class abilities, saving throws and any that the rules say to. I don't see how being a 10th level wizard gives one a level bonus to fixing a wagon wheel I agree with that but what about something like an elf's move silently ability? Should the elf get better at this over time r...

That's what I was looking for thanks mgtremaine.

What classes are included, are they balanced compared to the classes in the PHB or do they make some of them "obsolete"? Are the spells interesting, overpowered?

Anyone ever use those rules for multi-classing, and if so how did it turn out?

Does anyone have a link to the old forums? Interested in doing some research and wondering if they are still online.

Wow and I thought the dragons in M&T were powerful.

A little while back I purchased The Crusader bundle over at DrivethruRPG and have since been reading through them, excellent magazine and I wish it didn't have to end.

The Tales of the Rings of Brass series is some good reading, really brings the setting of Aihrde to life for me.

I know there's been a push for more technically detailed and computer-designed maps, but I do like the hand-drawn maps better, they evoke the feel of the setting and spark the imagination in a way that a full color digital art-style map can't.
