Here are the house rules for Carmen City. The WW editions I use are VtM 2300, Mage 4600, Hunter 8100, Werewolf 3600, KoE 2900, and other books associated with these, and not the lastest books released. Under no circumstances natural or supernatural do I accept the Time of Judgement supplement books.
