Re: What are you playing?
This 'houseruling' you speak of, is what playing the game was back in the day.... :D Oh, definitely. I actually don't mind it, provided that you have a group of players willing to roll with it. My main concern with houseruling is usually just consistency. For example, a fighter wants to scale a 20-...

Re: What are you playing?
I find the stark simplicity of B/X D&D to be refreshing. Of course, the downside of the game is also its stark simplicity. If you're DMing this game, get ready to houserule. A lot. Almost forgot - I'm also trying to put together a Warhammer FRPG game. (That's assuming, of course, that I can mana...

Re: What are you playing?
I'm currently messing around with "Red Book" Basic/Expert D&D.
It's an interesting switch from 4E.![Smile :)](./images/smilies/icon_smile.gif)

Re: DCC #54: Extra Dwarves
xredjasonx - You might want to wait until getting "Wyvern Mountain" before figuring out exactly how you want to connect "Forges" to it. Some of what you've got planned will fit in perfectly with leading into the adventure. But there's a few other things that you might want to add...

Re: New DCCs Announced
I like DCC modules set in the Criestine Colonies, and near Voltigeur ... then again, I'm biased.
Adventure location bias aside, "Isle of the Sea Drake" is a terrific campaign starter for a 4E game.
If you run it for your players, Frank, please let us know how it goes!

One question though: I noticed that the world is missing something like a common calendar with names for months and days of the week. Was this done on purpose? I could easily write one myself of course but would like to use something official if I can. Regarding the calendar - I think it's been men...

I was thinking pretty much the same thing. Let the PCs notice that there's considerably more activity amongst Lady Aborn's guards. Then, when they investigate, they should find that some have been given something "very important" to protect. (They can find this by bribing or tricking the g...

Re: Urban DCC
If you're using low-level characters, I'd recommend "Legend of the Ripper".
http://www.goodman-games.com/5023preview.html
It's set in a city, and has a good mix of mystery and dungeon crawling. And it's a solid adventure.

Btw, where's Punjar located on Aerth? It's on the northernmost tip of the Southern Province, just across the waters from the Criestine Empire. Look at the center of the middle map from "Gazetteer of the Known Realms" and you should see Punjar. It's essentially in the very heart of the wor...
