Re: In the rules?? "What is a RPG?"

Ditch it, 99% of people who would look to buy it are already gamers, hell maybe even more. There other intro games.

Re: Clerics and the DCC

Mmm not sure about the 50GP amount. I don't like in game gold giving mechanical advantages. Maybe sacrificing 90% of all your wealth, but exact numbers I don't like.

Re: Clerics and the DCC

Before your take I thought this: Well that looks cool to me, a bit like the sorcerer and mystic in DW. I would change the alignment restrictions to make a diagonal = 2 steps, thus the NG cleric would be good for 3 other alignments. Corner clerics (extreme alignments LG/LE/CE/CG) just 2. I may even m...

Re: Counterspells ?

So in summary, if you want to use 3e initiative system then you need to use the entirety of the 3e combat system. That does included AOO's. Because it is all linked together. That is entirely not true. There is no need to use everything, it is not how it works. Pathfinder doesn't use 3Es grapple et...

Re: Counterspells ?

So you are saying
Move Action: Prepare Counterspell. Any time before the beginning for your next turn (and you are not flat footed) you may counterspell any spell you have line of sight and line of effect to using counterspell rules on page XXX. Activating your counterspell is a swift action

Re: Zocchi Dice - Seek out our own or for sale here?

Have DCC got in touch with the new zochi dice guys to see if the will do a special DCC RPG set? Preferably with a d7? I reckon pretty much everyone who buys the game would get a set!

Well I only heard about it after the first blog, so I don't count. Looking forward to it, ponied up for the pre-order and really looking forward to reading the BETA. Hope it does go the way of the Razor Coast pre-order I did!

Re: questions about combat

Small is obviously a relative term here. :wink: small > none :) One thing that has always bothered me about D&D is that once you have a few levels under your belt you become to immune to dying in many situations. Also, due to the binary nature of hit points (i'm fine or i'm dead), if there's no...

Interesting point from ENW: http://www.enworld.org/forum/general-rpg-discussion/299107-dungeon-crawl-classics-rpg-goodman-games-10.html#post5494512 Right.

Re: Appendix O?

I didn't expect this to turn into a bibliography in itself, but there are some really interesting leads here.

Re: Designer's Blog #3: What Do You Mean, "Vancian"?

I think you are getting your spell numbers WAY high, ", and the wizard PCs usually have 4-6 of these depending on level" from Joseph about spell numbers on cards at the table. So that reduces the number of spells in the book. Anyway IMO the spell tables for each spell are a DCC RPG USP ;) ...

Thanks for the reply Joseph, and yeah winging it for NPC spell-caster rolls is good, though I'd also love to throw in a few spectacular results/failures for laughs! As to random spells, that brings back bad, well good but bad, memories. My first real game of DnD (that was not a quick bash round Barg...
