Use of CCG cards in LCG gameplay

By Burto001, in CoC Rules Discussion

This maybe someplace else on the forums, but I could not find it.

1. Are the old CCG cards interchangeabe with the new LCG cards (besides any errata)?

2. Are you allowed to use the cards from the CCG (minus banned or possibly restricted cards) any any tournament

or officially sanctioned organized play?

If the answer to both the questions above is no, is that basically saying that, other than for casual play, the new LCG has made

any FFG CCG cards of no use?

Thank you,

James

To your specific questions, these have not been answered in official tournament rules. So it is unclear what the official answer is.

To your second point, I think you perhaps overstate the topic. There are few tournaments - one Regional, one Worlds, maybe if you live in Minnesota you can get a few more in. So the vast majority of play is non-tournament, "casual", whatever you want to call it.

The old CCG era cards work fine with the LCG version. Some say that the older cards are more powerful but I haven't seen it myself.

In our weekly gaming events we don't put any restrictions on cards - bring and play whatever you want.

Thanks to all that responded. It's good to know that most are allowing the use of the CCG cards, and that they are generally compatable.
