The module will "debut" at GenCon in play-format only -- after GenCon we'll add some fun notes about running the tournament and then format the content for publication (securing art, handouts, maps, all that good stuff)... I'm sure there will also be plenty of interesting posts and comment...

This year's 2005 GenCon DCC Tournament Module, Vault of the Dragon Kings , centers around exploring an ancient dragon city, lost to time somewhere within snow-capped mountains in the high altitude... While not as large a civilization or traditional city structure as most humanoids, a sense of explor...

Is there any sort of fan submission form? I recall such a form for the Origins awards, where you could simply enter in your favorite games within each category, but don't recall any sort of interface or call for votes from the ENnies.

I was really hoping that Crypt of the Devil Lich would get nominated, as an homage to the classic Tomb of Horrors, and for being such a hit at last year's GenCon... But getting Dragonfiend Pact nominated is awesome... Kudos to Goodman Games and Chris Doyle.

LOL... It's a fine line between rushing to meet a deadline and taking the time to be thorough. While I certainly can't promise 100% accuracy, that's what I'm striving to provide. And I can virtually guarantee that folks will find something to dislike or object to with the characters -- after all, yo...

fathead & all -- I finally got the last tidbits of feedback in from the very last playtest groups to die in the (er, "run through the") module and am working on integrating all the comments. Once all the playtest feedback has been processed, the character sheets and other related conte...

I was going to recommend DCC 14: Dungeon Interludes for your plans, as the individal chapters are short and work perfectly as "transitions" between larger campaign elements. And while the individual chapters are linked via an overarching plot contrivance, it can be played up or down to the...

Congrats Harley... Can't wait to get a copy of this module and skim through it. Sounds great, and I'm sure my group will gnash their teeth and tear out their hair. At least, i hope they will!

Yes, a wererat at low levels can be incredibly dangerous -- that's why we made sure to include some workarounds... Clever groups should be able to gain a significant advantage through several different approaches. Barring that, there are some simple suggestions for scaling the encounter to soften th...

This is one of the best modules I've seen in many years. Wow! Thanks for the great compliment! If you thought my ego was unwieldy before, it's ballooned to epic proportions now... :D I'm glad you enjoy the module, and hope you and your group get many hours of campaigning enjoyment from Dungeon Inte...

Too late ... that's the sound of my ego inflating.

Glad you enjoy the module!

I think many of the lower level adventures are playable by very small (2-3 character) groups... Once you get into the higher levels, versatility is key, as one class may be ineffective against certain encounters. But with lower levels (up to 10 or so), every class has the opportunity to contribute t...

I'm reading the adventure now. It is quite good. I can truly see this being a connecting thread for the various DCC modules. Thanks for the kind comments! I really poured a lot of myself into this, and the overall storyline of the module incorporates the overarching plot elements from one of my hom...

ynnen = me = Jason Little = "Iron DM" from last year's Gen Con (I was your DM for the first round, Ben), DCC 13 Devil Lich (entrance, room of the eight arrows, flint golem hallway & eldritch library), DCC 14 Dungeon Interludes (author), and working on this year's Gen Con 2005 tournamen...

The quality of the maps you guys keep putting out just get better and better!! I was really pleased with the maps from DCC 13: Crypt of the Devil Lich (especially for the Entrance, which I designed), but the maps for the Defiled Sanctuary Ben put together for DCC 14 (my first 'solo' project for Good...

Here, here! I really like Jason's stylized illustrations, especially his use of line hatching for shading. When I got my copy of DCC #14: Dungeon Interludes, I was excited to see all the great illustrations inside my very first module. The tar roper oozing up over the gnome on p. 58 is great, and ha...

I wanted to start a fresh new thread about DCC 14: Dungeon Interludes specifically to answer any questions readers and GMs might have about the overarching adventure or individual scenarios. I also wanted to take the time to point out a minor error that I didn't catch the first time through. [Very *...

It's out now and should be available at your favorite hobby shop. I have to say, I'm very pleased with how the art, maps and handouts turned out, and hope everyone who picks up a copy has many fun game sessions with the adventure! I had a lot of fun writing the interlinked stories, and will be glad ...

Joseph showed me the entrance map, and I really like it. Great job, Ben -- the maps from Devil Lich were great, especially the ones for the third level.. Can't wait to see what other tricks you have up your sleeve for mapping out the rest of this module.

Welcome aboard -- glad you opted to de-lurk!

Always good to have another avid fan onboard.

The Wizard Strategy Guide, the long-awaited sequel to the Warrior Strategy Guide, is scheduled for July.

Whooo-hoooo!!!!

That is awesome news indeed, despite my bias toward the product. I'm really looking forward to seeing this guide come out, and can't wait to hear people's reactions to it.

I'll gladly plug DCC 14: Interludes, which I just happened to write :P . What a coincidence!! It's set up to be a series of "one shot" or shorter adventures that can be sprinkled in between all your current campaign adventuring, but still has an overarching storyline to help weave all thes...

Oops -- you were supposed to take a left at the Fearsome Corridor of the Nixie Regents... the Vault of the Dragon Kings is left from there, then two doors down to the right. Not the other way around....

Yes -- I was very happy to see several copies in the new release section of our local B&M hobby shop!

Go get it! You won't be disappointed -- but your players might be as they roll up new characters!

Hey, hey, hey!!! Give 'em an inch, they want a foot... :P I'm sure we'll be doling out more information in juicy bits, to tantalize the senses... Lemme just dangle this out, too... I just submitted the proposed roster of PCs for the convention, and the feedback was very positive. - Some atypical cha...
