I love the HUGE monster stat block! and especially the long descriptions. That's great. They personalize the monster, make them alive, not just cardboard entity with interchangeable heads and numbers. However, I do agree that each monster entry should ALSO include a "module-ready" stat blo...

Go Gnome!
48 hrs left!

I'm now officially in!

Bring that Lovecraft flavor!

Go gnome!!

Cool!
We can always use more campaign ideas/session write ups.

I simply don't like the idea of multi-classing in DCC RPG. Multi-classing is what made D&D 3e such a bore/rule-lawyers heaven. That said, home-brew rules are the special spice that make a good rpg campaign a GREAT one. So do as you wish! Gary Gygax in 2004 or so: "GameSpy: Have you had a ch...

#3 made it to Canada! Hurrah!

Can't wait for #4 now!!!

Wow the vote is really split right now!

That can only mean one thing: we'll need ANNUAL new classes CRAWL! issues.

Go Gnome!

Go for the GNOME!!!!

My Gnome is ready!! (600 words, I guess that's about right, right?)

Is the class-selection poll coming ??

I will fund this project, but I'm still considering at which level... Quick question: is the "special dm's screen" ($45+ level) the same thing as the goal #3 (if the the project reach 8000$+), "bonus 3-panel screen" and the "special detachable screen" ($50+ level) ? If ...

Transylvanian Adventures/Grimoire, a future 3PP (Third Party Product) DCC expansion.

Actually a little more granularity in dice isn't a bad idea. For example, in one game a player wanted to fight using his tomato cart as a "shield" in front of him. I ruled this would give him +2 AC, but he would roll a d16 for attack because of the cumbersome position. Having a d18 or d17 ...

And remember that monsters aren't "stuck" in their respective room. I don't advocate every-monster-in-the-whole-dungeon-goes-after-the-party-after-the-alarm play ("à la" Forgotten Temple of Tharizdun...) but monsters can certainly be "roaming" from place to place, inste...

From Update #9:
"The forum will be ready the first week of August."

I maybe wrong, but I think I read somewhere that John Adams is moving right now, hence the delay.

My own rule book has a sticky note on the fumble/crit page (p.80+) in Combat and another on Monsters Fumble (p.392)

That solve most of the page flipping during the game...

What's the best/most cost effective way to get (all?) the Conan stories by Howard? That could be a start: http://www.amazon.com/Complete-Chronicles-Conan-Robert-Howard/dp/0575077662 "The complete Chronicle of Conan". Should be able to find it anywhere. As a matter of fact I just flip thro...

Good point. On the other hand, I don't want the game to feel like an never-ending supply of cereal-box's surprises. Burning Luck should be very painful and very desperate. (BTW, There are NO surprise in cereal box in Canada since 2006 because of some stupid law or something. What is the cereal box s...

Great table, I used it tonight with very interresting results! "A Compass ??? What should I do with a compass???" the beekeeper said.
And I had to stat "klartesh" on the spot: I made it a magic powder/drug that gives +1 Str/-1 Int to your character for 1d5 rounds.

According to the rules, p.91 a character can burn Luck points before or after his roll. I'm unable to think of a single situation where a character would choose to burn Luck before his roll, given the choice. In order to improve drama at the table, I'm thinking of home-ruling that Luck points must ...

Apart from the final "boss" at the end of the movie (a bit too video game-ish for my taste), Solomon Kane is a great movie. Why wasn't it released in North America??

Greetings everyone!
The DCC RPG crowd is becoming a MOB!!!!

That reminds me of an AD&D game ran by a mathematician major back in the 80s. He add fairly complex integral table for falling damage (and the best assortment of traps depth and shape in town!)

Is Quebec still part of Canada ???
(I haven't check in a while...)

Talking of Patrons and literature. There were talk of using Lovecraft's and Moorcock's fictional entities as patrons (and I suppose Leiber's as well..) is there any official word on that ???
