Would any road crew judges be prepared to sell me their second hard copy of tower out of time??

I have been looking around and there are no conventions within reasonable travel distance where I could run this in the qualifying period.

I am in Australia so gaming events are thin on the ground, and those that do exist seem dedicated exclusively to warhammer and other miniature wargames.....

I'm happy to pay for the module and postage of course.

Just to make sure you know your options include events other than conventions -- your options include events other than conventions. You could run a public game at a game store, for example.

I run DCC games/adventures all time, least on Fridays, at my local game store (Underhill Games) and was not aware of this either. How can I get a copy of that adventure. My group would love to play it. I would add it to my DCC Blackmarsh campaign. :P

So.... I cannot seem to find anywhere that I can run a road crew game in Australia. Game stores don't stock it, and conventions over the period don't have RPG's as part of the event. This makes me a sad panda.

If any road crew GM's are prepared to sell me one of the hard copies available to them I would be grateful.

EDIT: The only option I have found is a local gaming club - but I don't really feel this qualifies as a 'public' game.... at least not in the spirit of what the road crew games are supposed to be about.

Kinda OT, but the first time I read the title "Tower Out Of Time", I misread it as "Trailer Out Of Time". Visions of a white trash-70s-South Park-Heavy Metal-Regular Show-Thundarr mash up floated through my mind until I reread the title. I have to admit I am kinda disappointed. Lol.

A local gaming club is fine. The idea is just to get out and play in a place where new people check out the game. I just got a note from someone who is running a session at a local middle school. I also had one other person request swag for a game at a local bar. Of course most games are at stores or cons, but schools and bars also qualify. Just don't drink at school, kids. :D

As far as "Trailer Out of Time," heh, I got a laugh out of that one. The guy on page 372 of the core book would definitely be at that party!

Totally. Muttonchops! I had a vision of Doug Kovac's Hugh riding shotgun in a '77 T-Top Trans-Am playing mailbox baseball with a battle axe against pedestrian monsters. F'n RAD. Maybe Muttonchops could drive for him.

My own gaming group is all 3.5 edition only and has never played DCC RPG and I want to run this to convert them! Is that a reason to get the PDF?
