Yes, although their system for publisher updates is not automated like RPGnow so I am not sure of the timeline.

Great! No worries on timeline.

Will it get updated at Paizo's site too for those of us that purchased it there?

The Iron Tavern interviewed Jon Marr of Purple Sorcerer Games. Purple Sorcerer Games and Jon are known for the adventure line and excellent electronic tools for Dungeon Crawl Classics RPG.

Those both look pretty cool. The Roll20 mapping is an especially nice feature. I polled a group of people who I had run for on both VTTs. They seemed to prefer Roll20 as well, though both have the occasional glitches. I think TTF will catch up now that their kickstart is complete, so I do keep a cl...

My main concern about a webcam is that I don't have a microphone, even. I figured that as long as I'm gonna get a mic, I might as well get a cam unit with a mic. I'll get something soon, though. I'd like to hear more about your one-shots. Did you like the interface? Any connection problems? How did...

I ran several one-shots of DCC RPG on Google+ Hangouts over the past two months. None of them were constantcon or Flailsnails games though. There is also http://www.ua-lc.com/ which puts up the occasional DCC RPG game as well. I am not sure how much I would worry about a good webcam. I know I wouldn...

Nice write-up! Sounds like you used several good strategies for handling the larger number of characters. I tend to do the group initiative thing as well. I need to get getter at using "ranks" for positioning. I feel like when the bad guys attack it is a little too random as to who actuall...

I have run several one-shots in the prior months to get used to the rules and try to figure out the power of characters at different levels. Last week I finally kicked off a campaign where we are starting with the 0-level funnel and then working our way up level by level. I chose to start in the Gre...

Well - it isn't until next June, but I think DCC RPG should be represented at Origins in Columbus, Ohio next year. I believe there was some off-the-books representation this year, but some official stuff would be great. Origins is big enough to have a lot of exposure to gamers, but small enough to h...

And the results of the poll are in, the Halfling was the most voted on. So this week The Iron Tavern looked at the Halfling character class for its weekly series:

Love it!

Help decide which DCC RPG character class The Iron Tavern will look at this week. Three left! The Wizard, the Halfling, and the Elf!

The real question then isn't, "Do you like/use encumbrance rules?" Fair enough! I hope I didn't come across too negative. So - let me look at the rules a little closer. All comments based on read through, not actual play of course. The Base EV is 25 for Humans and Elves, 15 for Halflings ...

The Iron Tavern takes a brief look at the indiegogo for Angels, Daemons, and Beings Between: A Patron Sourcebook for DCC RPG.

It looks overly complex to me, but I might not be the target audience. I was quite happy to see that DCC RPG's encumbrance rules amounted to "use common sense". Luckily in the groups I play with this method works as we have the trust within the group to pull it off.

Looks like I will be running this in a new campaign I have starting next week. Should be fun!

Excellent! I sort of figured the wizard would win last week, but then the cleric jumped ahead with a series of votes from Google+ and Twitter!

The Iron Tavern continues their look at the character classes of DCC RPG with attention on the cleric this week: http://irontavern.com/2012/08/03/dcc-rpg-the-cleric/ Also - feel free to start voting what class The Iron Tavern should look at next week! So far we have looked at the warrior, thief, dwa...

I posted in the product thread, but just to keep this thread updated...

The Iron Tavern has posted a review of the recently released Alternate Occupations from the IDD Company:

Cool - I will refine it a bit and go from there!

Good stuff!

Thanks!

beermotor, you are right, maybe 30+ should spread its damage around a bit more! Maybe a few more tweaks and I will submit it to CRAWL!.

As for my players at the time, I encouraged them to keep things simple, and was blessed with players that weren't inclined to pull pieces from 18 different books when putting together a character. And what they did pull together seemed reasonable; a couple guys were perfectly happy with the PHB and...

PF has the opposite problem. As originally published it was a fine game in its way (by my lights; apologies to the many who differ), but its relentless rules expansions are killing it through bloat. Personally I refer to this problem as "Car Wars Syndrome", as this was one of the earliest...

I simply don't use them. I have only a small number of 3rd Edition books in light of what they put out. My rule of thumb for any given campaign/adventure-cycle is to use the three core books, and one other for extra 'flavor' -- if needed. This works great as an individual player, but when you bring...
