I love Castles & Crusades almost as much as Basic D&D though. I would use C&C more, but Basic is compatible with Advanced 1&2 and has more classes and races for me to use than I can shake a Wiimote at.<BR/><BR/>And it has Ravenloft which I am a total fanboy of in its original 2 box format with Fabian artwork and Lord Soth down in Sithicus.<BR/><BR/>I wish more companies would make system agnostic settings. Heck, it may be an idea for Palladium to just buckle up and do. Brilliant settings but a game engine that isn't to many folk's taste.<BR/><BR/>Imagine having Beyond the Supernatural's setting info without all the silly numbers so it could be plugged into Call of Cthulhu or New World of Darkness?<BR/><BR/>Rifts easily locked into Mekton?<BR/><BR/>Systems Failure or Splicers with Dark Heresy?<BR/><BR/>Oh great googly moogly!Captain Rufushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00296697477771399357noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7652921.post-82082747224903018482008-08-01T15:42:00.000-05:002008-08-01T15:42:00.000-05:00I appreciate the kind words and the post. The hard...I appreciate the kind words and the post. <BR/><BR/>The hardest thing about pitching this product was explaining what it was. I had to write up one of the lands up before Joesph Goodman understood what I was selling.<BR/><BR/>"Well it isn't a dungeon, but it isn't like Greyhawk style setting either. It shares elements with the Wilderland but is smaller and more easily customized. Plus you can make a line out of this like the DCCs. Oh heck I just going have to write it up"<BR/><BR/>So hopefully this, along with the other factors, It will hit a sweet spot in the market.<BR/><BR/>One encouraging thing was going to the last chapter of the 4th edition D&D in June and seeing how they presented Nentir Vale. Make my job explaining what Points of Light is a lot easier.Robert Conleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03863009007381185340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7652921.post-25503487101671107442008-08-01T13:47:00.000-05:002008-08-01T13:47:00.000-05:00I am so out of the loop, didn't even know this was...I am so out of the loop, didn't even know this was on the horizon, but looks awesome.Mike D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13199531732115178349noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7652921.post-30247441130420159622008-08-01T13:45:00.000-05:002008-08-01T13:45:00.000-05:00And it's systemless [...]I've been waiting for sev...<B>And it's systemless [...]</B><BR/><BR/>I've been waiting for several years now to say this, but they've never quite given me the right excuse 'til now:<BR/><BR/>Goodman Games, I love you.<BR/><BR/>I love an RPG book that's 100% <I>stuff.</I>S.
