Ala Al'Din, Sultin of the Djinn

So, as I finally had the opportunity to start up a DCC campaign, I've been working overtime at developing new patrons. Most of them are, admittedly, not very good, and I wouldn't feel comfortable sharing them with strangers. At least one of them, however, I feel is pretty good, or at least good enou...

Re: Another alignment question.

Thanks, those are both excellent pieces of advice, and both seem, at least to me, to boil down to a single issue: a need to more properly define what alignemnt is. I'v spent some time reflecting on that and think I've some up something that will work, and that I really kind of like. I might post soe...

Re: Another alignment question.

Sort of. I guess My big issue is that I want two incompatible things, that is I want alignment to be a real, tangible cosmic conflict, and kind of the ultimate end-all-be-all of my cosmology to preserve that us vs. them feel, and also want the freedom to use actual pantheons and have the gods intera...

Another alignment question.

I know alignment is a topic that has been talked to death here, and I have read most of those topics, but I still don't have the insight I was looking for. My issue is less on the relationship between alignment and morality (I follow the the THTL approach there with L and C being kinda like G and E,...

Re: B/X style skill/ability checks and saving throws in DCC.

The more I think about it, the less happy I am with the ability/skill changes, I think I'll hold off on that. Not only for the reasons you guys stated, but for other issues of needlessly complicating the games with additional mechanics, the removal of opposed checks being more problematic than I ori...

B/X style skill/ability checks and saving throws in DCC.

I've recently been going baxk and foth on whether I want to run DCC or B/X as the primary game for my group, and finally settled on DCC. That being said, mechanically there are a couple of things I would really like to adapt from basic, specifically skill/ability checks and saving throws. Basically,...

Special Materials

So, especially given that magical armor seems to be less of a thing in dcc, I was thinking I wanted to detail rules for special armor and weapon materials. At the very least, for elves sake I wanted to detail rules for mithril. Below is what I came up with, and I just thought I'd see what you all th...

Re: Introductions Thread - Join the Band!

Hey, I'm a long time fantasy fan looking to break into RPGs, both because I think it would be a lot of fun, and as a way to keep in touch with my brother, who shares similar interests. My first choice was AD&D first edition, and I still love that rule set, but he had, how shall I say, less of an...
