This is a movie that people either love or hate. I loved it's grim atmosphere, the visuals and the strange relationship between One-Eye and the kid. The latter pair would make interesting sword & sorcery heroes.

John's blog might be enlightening too: http://carpgp.blogspot.com/

Still not as huge as three core books of D&D.

It's interesting, for me, there's no option to calculate shipping, just a flat $4 charge with the normal DCC RPG book. The only matter is that I won't have enough spare money till the middle of March, this is why I have to know how long this lasts.

As for international shipping if you do want to order direct, it is your lucky day: go ahead and place an order with the existing $4 shipping charge. Long story short I would be happy to subsidize a bit of enthusiasm early on, and it's easier than dealing with some of Paypal's quirks. So: $4 intern...

Dang, you're onto me! I've planning this April Fool's joke since 2009!!!

DCC RPG: the biggest joke of the rpg business, ever!

We're in a Pathfinder game right now, and I'm quite fond of feats. Will there be anything in DCC that resembles them? I'm talking about when you go up in level you choose a power/feat/advantage/talent or something. Thanks. Nope, you get your class abilities, the stuff you roll for birth augur and l...

I'm caotious but optimistic so far about D&D Next, but DCC RPG is more interesting and HackMaster is more awesome, in my opinion.

Looking forward to it. Any info about what are you planning in your halfling hole?

Got mine yesterday! It looks good, but I still don't know where to put it on the wall.

I was thinking about rerolling luck every morning/week. There are days when you're lucky, and when you're not, no matter what you do.

How about Tim Tyler? Found his art today on D&D's facebook page, but it seems the admins deleted his post and/or dude deleted his account. Luckily, with some googling, I found this: http://www.drunkduck.com/Maidens_Monsters_and_Madmen_the_Tim_Tyler_sketchbook/5022993/ He seems to like drawing fa...

Looks good, although it isn't as interesting as some of the other module covers (Sailors on the Starless Sea, Beyond the Black Gate, I'm looking at you). Can't wait to see the final version, I like the way Doug uses colours.

Nice! I hope the next will be a preview about spell layout, I'm eager to know how you solved that.

The ERB Mars books are great, but they didn't seem to fit the style of the books you listed in the earlier post. Mars is more cinematic and grand, while Conan is more dark and gritty. Indeed, but it has many interesting ideas - including the flora and fauna of Mars. I can also imagine wastelands th...

...What else would you recommend? Not knowing your tastes exactly, what about the original Planet of the Apes movie(s), and the John Carter novels of ERB? Bingo, thanks! I was thinking a lot about populating Mars, Venus with altered humans and creatures, plus moon with lovecraftian horrors that com...

:shock: Isn't that list long enough? You could throw in Leiber's Fafhrd & Grey Mouser tales. Those are pretty solid. It is, but I've already finished most of them (have some CAS stories left and half of the Book of the New Sun) and there might be some stuff I never heard about (especially movie...

I have drawn some maps, and collected some ideas, and I think I'm going to settle with campaign B for now. Now I'm checking some videos and pictures about possible future arrangement of continents and ice age maps, that I can use as a solid base, then modify them by my own ideas. I'm also collecting...

Only clerics, at least that's what my players think.

Oh, it's simple, actually. Dwarves are by their very nature creative and learn things well, so as they advance they become better and better at what they do. Elves have a lot of natural talent but are basically stupid and never learn from their mistakes. I'm surprised that you did not know this. :l...

During a recent re-reading of the beta rules, I noticed that while the dwarves add their level as bonus to their skill checks to notice traps, slanting passages, shifting walls and new construction, the elves receive a flat +4 to detect secret doors. Is their any reason why these work different? Oh...

The word "gonzo" bugs me a little, based on my Gamma World experience, and perhaps that has biased me away from Campaign A. I prefer my campaigns to be more straight forward because players do things that are gonzo enough as it is. When a game is designed to be gonzo (see Paranoia and mos...

The decision has been made: once our Wilderlands of High Fantasy campaign ends, we're going to begin a new one in DCC RPG. New system, new world, new characters, new opportunities - both me and my players are excited about the campaign. I have one problem though: I have too many campaign ideas. One ...

I love the box idea! Terrific product idea. On the subject of DCC RPG pre-orders, I think I already mentioned that there will be a drawing for original art by some of the old-school artists involved in the project. On a similar note, what do you guys think of an exclusive module, available only to ...

I just pulled down the beta PDF, and I'd love to take a group through a pre-built module. I just don't have time to build a custom adventure at the moment. Anyone have a suggestion for a great starting module for the DCC RPG? Sorry if this has already been asked. Thanks! How about the Free RPG Day ...
