Recruiting for Castles and Crusades


Recruitment


Taking a break from Savage Worlds to run another of my favourite systems; Castles and Crusades! :D

While I love Pathfinder, it's a bit crunchy for my liking - C&C scratches the old school D20 itch without a load of brain-numbing number crunching.

Looking for 4-5 players. All you will need to play is the Players Guide, which is available as a PDF (but is somewhat overpriced - although you can get one of the older versions, all they changed for the new edition is the Illusionist spells and added colour illustrations).

I'll be running 'Idylls of the Rat King', the first adventure in the Dungeon Crawl Classics series by Goodman games...

"In Idylls of the Rat King, goblin bandits are once again attacking the silver caravans, killing innocent miners and stealing cargo. The goblins have taken up residence in an abandoned mine northwest of Silverton. Someone must get rid of them. But this is no ordinary abandoned mine. It was deliberately barricaded generations ago when the Gannu family, founders of Silverton, discovered an unspeakable evil on its lowest levels. And these are no ordinary goblins, for the curse of the Gannu family courses through their veins..."

If things go well, I would like to continue running these classic adventures.

Character Generation Notes: Rather than the standard 'Roll 3d6' rules for generating attributes, roll 4d6 and drop the lowest. Characters automatically start with max HP and max gold for their chosen class. No multi-classing.


bumping for interest

Dark Archive

I'm interested. I went to the Troll Lords Games website to see what it is all about and the site was hacked while I was on it. Now C&C is all about Canadian online pharmaceuticals.

I'll find a player's handbook and check it out.

Still, let's see the rolls.

4d6 ⇒ (6, 5, 5, 6) = 22 17
4d6 ⇒ (4, 3, 2, 1) = 10 9
4d6 ⇒ (5, 2, 4, 1) = 12 11
4d6 ⇒ (3, 1, 2, 3) = 9 8
4d6 ⇒ (3, 6, 4, 6) = 19 16
4d6 ⇒ (5, 3, 4, 6) = 18 15

Not bad. Anything you're looking for in a character?


You're the first/only person to express any interest in the game, so you can pick from any of the nine classes.

I'm not looking for pages of character backstory, just a few broad strokes that the other players can work with as the adventure unravels.


Ooooh goody!! Are you gonna do the entire trilogy ?! I'm game!


There was so little interest in this that I've closed shop. Sorry Earthenchild.


I am trying to get a C&C group together to play or GM and I have not been able to find anything. I feel your pain. Let me know if you ever need a player or GM for C&C.

Silver Crusade

never heard of C&C but reading how their website was hacked.. im Leary of evening doing a start search on it. Is there a nutshell version of it?


I'm looking to run a game of Castles & Crusades on Skype just via messenger if anyone is interested? Even if its just a small 1-3 player game... I'll be happy to run it. Will just be a quick sandbox adventure I can whip up in no time.
