As i said its the origional set of rules. more is going to come to it as we add
the town section, the story section, the creatures, and lands section, the
character section etc. it will be a pretty complicated site!

Joe Finnel for providing spells etc, Yaron Dori for dispersing messages and
doing the web desigining and several other people who my thanks got to for
looking at the rules etc in development.

Hey Alex,
long time no see.

I just finished reading over the rules, and to be honest, it sounds like you're
trying to recreate the wheel.  The rules are very complicated, and I don't quite
understand how each rule interacts with other rules.  But what I really don't
get is the purpose behind some of the rules.  For example, you state that once a
character founds a town, that character can never leave.  Why not?  Just one
example, but many places have rules like this - seemingly arbitary.  My point is
this, one of the things I liked about IOM was that it left ALOT (as in, almost
all) of freedom to the individual players to decide what to do and how to do it.
CastleQuest relies heavily on a GM to control the game.

To be honest, this doesn't sound like something that would be a lot of fun to
do, unless one were already into D&D and similiar stuff.  I'd like to see some
sort of group castle LEGO story/game, and perhaps Castle Quest can become that,
but right now, I don't think it is.

I'm sorry to be a downer, and to be critical.  However, I do believe this
concept can be improved into something that looks like it would be fun.
