Re: Do we really need clerics and magic healing?
I have a player who loves to be a cleric character, so that part of me likes to have them in my game. On the other hand, the cleric doesn't feel very "Appendix N" to me so it really changes the feel of the campaign. Rather than having a cleric treated like a medic, I've tinkered a little ...

Re: Do we really need clerics and magic healing?
TATG doesn't have magical healing. People can use that (without Transylvania) to play in a setting where the gods don't intervene to heal up somebody. The Polymath class could serve as a kind of "Cleric" that did not have healing abilities. From all reports, the lack of healing magic makes...

Re: "recovering the body"
I home ruled it to this. Make a only luck modified roll against DC 12. First of all Players HATE to roll a nat 20 to save there characters and fail. Second of all I'm a softy and figured a base chance of like 40% was big enough for death to still sting but give the guys a break from time to time. T...

Re: Where is the DCC Crowd heading to in 2013... (Con-wise)
I'm hoping to go to NTRPGCon this year. I have to get a ticket, though. Website says they don't come available until the end of April. I'll be bringing Transylvanian Adventures and will hopefully run a couple of games of it. I can run DCC as well, if it's under-represented. I'd like to play some too...

Also, some huge mad props to RCK who did a write-up on TATG over at his blog . First, you should read the write-up, if you haven't already.

Re: Who holds the spell charts - GM or PC?
Good question. A lot depends on the player or group. As a GM, I prefer to adjudicate spell results even though it adds a bit of overhead to the time it takes to resolve spellcasting. I just like it better than, as you said, "studious players [knowing] EXACTLY what they could be in for". Bu...

Of the two in the OP, I'd agree with those who recommended Blackmarsh. I own them both and agree with the comments that have already been made. As for other possibilities for DCC campaign settings, there are tons of options out there. My fallback is my own hack of the Wilderlands setting (of which C...

Re: When PCs die - how do you handle this?
I punish the players severely when their characters die. For every level the deceased character was, I have the player drink one shot. Strangely, most players roll up Dwarves after that. I wonder if there's a correlation... Just kidding. A few years ago, back in the C&C days and such, we had a r...
