Re: Stomp the typo!

Page 450, "Table of Titles (continued)": under Thief, I believe #89 Sonnateer should be "Sonneteer".

Re: Have you found it yet?

Thanks to the larger image (on pg. 455 of the PDF), I think I can make it out now; if it's what I think it is, it's a classy gesture from all involved.

My Day at Origins (Deals, Dice, & DCC RPG)

Drove up to Columbus (just for the day) to check out the Origins Dealers Room (admission = $10 for me and my GF). It was pretty much the same as its been the last several years: not as big a deal as GenCon, but well worth a 1.5 hour drive and $10. What really made it worth it, though, was finding 12...

Re: "roll" weird die by turning pages in the DCC RPG?

I can't recall the game (I believe it was a pretty indy game, but I could be way off base on that one), but it had a random number on every page of the book that fell within the range of the dice used for the game.

Re: Free RPG day and my first DCC RPG adventure

I experienced the other end of the spectrum; I played in the game Joseph ran at Dicehead Comics & Games last night. There were 11 players at the table and we lost 20 of 33 Pcs (!). Don't get me wrong, it was awesome . I felt like I'd achieved something by having one surviving character. One dude...

Re: Suggested Published Adventures That Would Make for Good

This past weekend we started “Modnar’s Cellar” from Stonehell Dungeon Supplement Two: Buried Secrets (link below). I'm using it for our funnel and it's working out great so far.

Re: No Skill Chapter

While I think the above is more economical and modern, it loses the charm and earlier edition feel of the Skills chapter as is. It reminds me of C&C and that's both good and bad. I'd prefer the Skills chapter stay.

Re: Idea: Remove most negative penalties from DCCRPG

I like this (and credit to Talnath for having suggested it for initiative w/ 2H weapons*). My one concern is the all too common -2 and how to port that over. I guess you could use 2 "d9"s (standard d10s, read the "0" as zero unless you roll double 00, which counts as 10). * http:...

Re: the Artwork - keep it Black, White and BOLD!

Ditch Mullen. (Don't expect that to come about.) Mullen is probably my favorite illustrator in the book. Really? Why? The thin lines? The poor hashing? The lazy textures? The lack of other details? (I really don't like Mullen and took the time to figure out why.) I really like his work, too. Try no...

Re: changing the tone of DCC?

I think Joseph (and Harley) should avoid any changes that diminish his passion for the game and its direction. This may be one of those things that would.

Or it might not.. what, after all, do I know (other than I like it the way it is)?
