I can promise terror, glory, and riches...or a quick and brutal death.

Checking Interest: Crypts & Things for B4: The Lost City

#1 Post by ybn1197 »

I interested to see if there is enough interest to get a game started. I would be using the Crypts & Things ruleset (based on Swords & Wizardry rules) to run the old basic Dungeons & Dragons module B4: The Lost City. Anyone interested?

This sounds like it could be fun... I don't have the latest version, but I've enjoyed what I've seen of Crypts & Things.

Lost City? Oh yeah! I'd like to get in on that too.
I also do not have the latest version of Crypts & Things...

I'm not big on rules, they are more guidelines to me so don't worry about which version you know or don't know. I've gamed with all three of you and I am well aware you know what you are doing. I would love to get at least one more player so lets see what they weekend brings.

I would be interested in this. I am a fan of Crypts and Things, and have never run B4.

And that is four. I guess that means there is enough interest in this to start it up. I'll post house rules, etc on Monday.
More players welcome.

C&T is a really nice ruleset. It's classes are a really elegant blend of flexibility and flavor. It occurs to me that it would be a great system for running a Sword & Sandals campaign.

Will we be using the 4 core classes, or are the exotic classes on the table?

I'll jump in on a waitlist ybn unless you need me in the active list due to shortage of players :)

I'd be more than happy to have you on the active list GW! We have 4 players right now and a 5th is more than acceptable.

Will we be in Zarth or Mystara or somewhere else?

Definitely not Zarth, I'm not impressed with what I have read so far. I am thinking a Swords & Sorcery version of Mystara might be interesting to play out.

Yeah, the map of Zarth in the 1st book was kinda cartoonish. Failed to give that sword & sorcery, Appendix N vibe...

Ylaruam could be spun sword & sorcery too as an option.
