Brain fart; I was calculating it as roll under on 3d6 not on a d20 (and it was equal or under). I'll make another graph later, the d20version will have more of a straight line.

So I was wondering which was "harder" and it occurred to me that roll under is very tightly tied to the ability score while DC is only somewhat influenced by it. Which only made me more interested in the difference, so I gave in and made a rough graph. If you have a hard time with the labe...

GnomeBoy, did this adventure get published, or do we still have that to look forward to?

(it looks like a great funnel: everyone clearly had a blast and some people lived!)

For various reasons I'm looking at running DCC RPG with a small number of players (at least at first - I expect I can get more if I can convince the initial group). I have not run DCC RPG before (but I loved the old 3.0/3.5 DCC adventures), and my players haven't played DCC RPG before. So I'm lookin...

The daemon cycle by Peter v. Brett.

The daemons own the world, the known world is tiny. Man doesn't really band together in this time of desperation.

I'm not sure how much "historical accuracy" matters in your campaign (this isn't a knock, some people enjoy it, some are bored by it) but childhood to the extent that it existed use to end WAY sooner. Depending on what sources you use and how you define adult (and the social class the chil...

Is level#1 in the works? My players are about to get started (or at least they are at the tail end of DCC17, and will soon be ambushed heading to garland's fork....or they will do something unexpected). I'm currently painting the alternate outside area that is in Saga of the Dragon Cult, but I'm not...

[quote="velvetlinedbox"]I am getting ready to run DCC#2 and was wondering what is the 8th world?[/quote] It isn't really detailed anywhere, so it can be anything you want it to be (so long as it isn't very pleasant). You might want to look at "area 3-8" for a little inspiration, ...

The party was foolish enough to let the kobold lead them into the gardens...and even to let him into the garden first (unarmed). Now the garden kobolds are extra alert, and I figure they had an extra cross bow for him... Now the only thing left to decide is exactly how far down the path the party wi...

When 4e comes out I might have finished the dragon cult saga. Then I'll be starting Castle Whiterock. I'll be good until 4.5e :-) In all seriousness I'm looking forward to 4e putting an end to sleeping between every encounter, and the more fluid combats and making it easy to handle more critters per...

I hate you all (in a good way). Now my wife has discovered that her complete Hero Quest collection is incomplete as there were 2 USA only releases. Which can be found on Ebay. For over $300 each. :shock: Does anyone out there want to buy a house in CA (she's a Realtor, and it makes sense to get her ...

Ah, good idea. So if he gets shackled try leading party to the elite guard. If he isn't tied bring them to the brambles where he can escape and join the hit n' run group there.

That could work.

And it wouldn't leave me inventing a derro cave complex.

The party I'm running through DCC#2 has captured a kobold. Two actually. On the 1st level they captured one who after a bit of torture came up with the plan of leading the party to the chest with the dolls and trying to flee during the combat. (it actually worked out even better then that since one ...

Oh! Sweet! My wife has Hero Quest. I think she lovingly hand painted the altar. It won't really be "an alter of living kobold flesh", but it sure does look evil. Very nice idea, thanks. I think I found candles (in a um, maybe White Wolf's Counter Collection), they were in under "const...

In 3-2 there are living candle holders (5x5) and an alter (5x10) formed from living critters. Any ideas on what I can use for counters or cardboard standees? I found some nice mushroom ones for the boats by using google images search (similar for the dolls). I haven't found anything useful with that...

I'm trying to decide if I should hold out for the PDF. Are the maps online if I buy the print version?

I have a regular game group of 4 players, but some weeks 2 of them can't make it. I'm looking for a "off weeks" thing to run. The WWF's look like they have the kind of flavor I would want in a irregularly scheduled game. Are any suitable or trivially modifiable for two players rather then ...

I'm talking thery here, not direct experiance. Maybe someone who knows for real can talk real numbers and such (or maybe real numbers are too much "secret sauce") ragnar1965, I would expect authors and artists and such to make a similar amount off of PDF sales as from print sales (the exce...

I have bought in both, but only run ones I've bought in PDF. My pros and cons: Go PDF: + I can cut & paste the room descriptions into something where I can edit super easy, and still read the results. I do this to a lot of the rooms so the descriptions use similar phrasing and language to what I...

If it is anything like past DCC modules (adventures?) it will be avilable in PDF. The DCCs I have bought in PDF have been less expensave then the print versions (and easier for me to smuggle into work and study on game day). The print version does not include a free PDF version. (I think Mr. Goodman...

Yes, once you paste it is text, you just have to delete half of each "line", and remove the extra newlines. Takes maybe 2 minutes to fix up a single description. If I were running an IRC game I would take half an hour and copy & paste all the "read aloud" text before the firs...

FYI cut & pasted can be hard. It is two collum text and it copies both of them when you only want one (I.e. one line of descripton one line of tactics or something mixed). It is doable & faster then retype. But it takes longer then I would want to do during gameplay. Which works ok for me si...

The PDF is just the wrap around story, not the original adventures. Which is also why the PDF is under $10 if I recall correctly ($7 at paizo in fact). I haven't read the Saga PDF very closely yet, but what I have read makes me think it is worth far more then the $7 I payed. I was already running so...

Warning: this is a spoiler for anyone who is intending to play DCC2 ([i]The Lost Vault of Tsathzar Rho[/i]), which is also part of the [i]Dragon Cult Saga[/i]. So after my players managed to get up to the hidden tunnel (1-7, attached to the giant cavern 1-2) they foolishly left the tunnel. I decided...
