I recently heard that Castles & Crusades is a combination of AD&D, Basic D&D, and a bit of d20. For those of you who have played it, how would you say it compares to the various out of print editions of D&D?

Its more rules than BECM D&D,and a bit less than AD&D.

It gives a decent spirit of old D&D, and its wonderfully free of skills and feats

Well that sounds like a positive note.

What aspects of d20 does C&C have? (Wait... unless that question is off topic for this board...)

The dice mechanic is D20, as is combat, though you dont need mini's, and the rules are a lot more straightforward

Really, this thread still is off-topic for this board. The topic is Castles and Crusades, not OoP versions of D&D.
