As you indicated earlier; C&C stats are simple to use as they are, but if you feel the need to re-arrange some or all of the rules/stats to fit your own needs, that too is quite easy to do.

My grandson has been playing C&C and AD&D for a little over a year and is already creating his own dungeons/adventures with maps, mostly using revised C&C rules, revisions of AD&D, even 3.5 ED, and some other rules of his own devising.

From the start I told him that the books are guides to his own adventures and following them to the letter is NEVER required, though that is one of many options.

Basically stated; House Rules are the Rule at his house. :lol:

This was a fantastic find if you are Battletech fan (especially one as stupid as I was to get rid of all my Battletech stuff years and years ago). These books are incredibly hard to find now or expensive.

I think this one has been up for a while - I didn't think this one was complete.  I grabbed another one that was up in the summer but forget what the difference is - maybe one more slide or picture and the folder.

Wow.... just Wow....   8O
