Re: Supporting multiple systems within the DCC's
Joe I really support this idea. I play in two groups, one switched to 4e and the other stayed with 3.5ed. The 4e group have found the game very repetitive and boring and encounters at medium to high level seem to take a bloomin age. To cut a long story short, we have decided to switch to Pathfinder....

Off Topic - New 3D Terrain Pictures
All Apologies for this not being DCC related, but a couple of months ago I was asked to post some pix of some 3D terrain projects (which I did) and they genereated some interest and comment. At the time I promised to post additional pix of my latest creation, which involved a trip to Hell for my par...

Re: 4E Aereth and Punjar
Astrocat I am currently using Aereth to run both 3.5 ed and 4e games in. I haven't bothered too much about how the new races fit in (I know that Tieflings and Dragonborn aren't mentioned in the Gazeteer, but they are not explicitely excluded either) and neither have the players. I did need to do som...

Re: DCC Ethos
Those beat to tatters the cardboard and hot glue rooms I made for White Plume Mountain... :cry: Thanks again.

Re: DCC Ethos
I'm a little late to this topic. The first half was interesting, but the second sub subject was way cool. Your group is very lucky to have you. That is way more effort than anyone has ever put into running a game I've ever played in. Your pictures look great. Even your first effort looks good. I th...

Re: New DCCs Announced
We got through Talon Pass ok. That was a fun module, but yeah it was pretty challenging. I took out all of the zombies at the beginning with my wizard, it was sweet. It was the Kobold Hall in the back of the DMG where we got wiped out by the young white dragon at the end. We've ran a few of the Dun...

Re: DCC Ethos
My next Terrain Project was much simpler. Again cardstock based (yes, that castle was built entirely from paper !!), this time it was a pretty straightforward sewer system. Simple, but rather effective I found. http://www3.mediafire.com/imgbnc.php/ca79f6a64bd6e020c78960c7312e8f046g.jpg http://www4.m...

Re: DCC Ethos
My next project was a tad more ambitious then the village - a full on castle. Unlike the village, the castle has an exterior AND an interior and it took a serious amount of effort to build. The shots below are low res, but they do a good job of showing the advance between the village and this. I'll ...

Isle of the Sea Drake is for 1st level parties (although like all DCCs, it's pretty easy to scale upwards), but it takes place near Voltiguer in the Criestine colonies near Xulmec territory. If you want more Xulmec, there's more coming. Adrian Thanks for that. Actually, my copy of Isle of the Sea D...
