Re: The Goodman Games Forums Are Closing

...and I've already found a problem. It appears that, when there are multiple pages showing as 1 2 3 4 5 ... 14, it did not grab pages 6-13. I'm going to need to see how to fix that. So, everything isn't archived yet. Back to the drawing board. Sounds like it's not going deeply enough into the link...

Would it be possible for these forum boards to make their way to the Wayback Machine located at http://web.archive.org/ ?

21 Crossbow Salute to the Goodman Games Fan Forums

They say that you don't know what you've got 'til it's gone, and they also say that all good things must come to an end, so I guess that we all must eventually know what good things we've got...or something. I'm sad to see the GG forums go but also thankful that they existed as, like the DCC RPG its...

Hello everyone! It's been a long time since I posted on here. I still remember about 20 years ago when we first started these forums!

Re: Number of spells

It's option B: Wizards are limited to a certain number of memorizable spells only, depending on level.

It's a very different system of magic than you find in D&D. Instead of getting more "spell slots" to be used per day at a new XP level, in DCC, you know that many more spells, total.

Re: Can Clerics Reverse Spells?

As always, it's up to you, and the rulebook provides some guidelines for this, but one thing I want to add for your consideration is the old D&D way of doing it, which is that for chaotic clerics (anti-clerics), some of the spells were reversed by default, and they could only learn the "evi...

Where to Print a Self-Published OSR Module?

Hi all, I have an OSR module I've been working on, and I'm thinking of publishing it in digital/PDF form as well as print (basic B&W with glossy cover, no collectible gold foil or anything). Can anyone give some leads on where to get the physical modules printed and what typical costs per unit m...

Re: Wizards and Padded Armor

So correct me if I'm wrong: Under armor, it says that the check penalty applies to spell checks for Wizards, but since padded armor doesn't have a penalty, that means Wizards can wear it with no problems. Right? Correct, if there's no check to the armor, then there's no check to be applied to the s...

Re: Let's Talk About Spellburn

Of course, but my point is that the spellburn costs pretty much REQUIRE you to start each adventure right after another, or spells with (semi)-permanent effects will be cast for free. This has been a hugely painful thread to read, so maybe next time, just don't do this, but to me, the bottom line i...

Since we're talking old (pre-DCC RPG) modules, I would love to see DCC RPG conversions of all the old material!
