Re: Dragonmeet - London, December 1

I was hoping to get there and run a DCC game, ad-hoc if needed, but I'm sick at home. Wishing... wishing for the dice. Hi Nnesk! Nice to see another friendly face around these parts. I was starting to feel like The Omega Man. At Dragonmeet I finally managed to find a D7 (jumbo-sized), D14 (also jum...

Re: Mystery Map Adventure Design Competition

I just wanted to suggest a free pdf of the top 10 runners up! Then we can pick the adventure we most prefer or best fits our campaign, or we can combine them all into a super-adventure.

Dragonmeet - London, December 1

Dragonmeet is on Saturday.

I was really hoping to meet some UK DCC RPG fans at Dragonmeet this year, and hopefully pick up some funky dice as well.

Is anything happening?

Re: Got my copy, need a group! London UK

Hi there - did you guys get a London group going? If you did, is there room at the table? Hi Rythwold! Sorry for the late reply, but I've not been to the website for a while. I'm still looking for a group, so if you are still around, that makes two of us. Maybe we could plan something for Dragonmee...

Re: Getting DCC in Toronto, Distributor Question

OK, I do understand economies of scale, and how and why were have distributors and wholesalers. I have a bad habit of being rhetorical, and I too often forget that rhetorical points don't work well on the internet. What I am trying to get at is that perhaps the business model that works for Coke is ...

Raven_crowking, I don't doubt what you are saying about the business, I don't really know anything about that. I'm sorry you can't find what you are looking for in Toronto. My only point was that, in my experience, most cities are lucky to have 1 modest game shop, whereas Toronto has a wealth of ver...

Re: Pitch me on your con

Would be nice to see you at Dragonmeet in London. Dragonmeet is the UK's biggest gaming convention, but it feels intimate. The convention takes over 2 stories of a town hall in Kensington, the admission price is nominal, and there is a lot of gaming to participate in. The list of special guests is u...

Re: Getting DCC in Toronto, Distributor Question

If I could order these at Silver Snail that would be AMAZING. It's a bit disappointing that the gaming stores in Toronto aren't that good. I ended up ordering a few things direct from Goodman Games, but shipping is kind of a suck. I am sorry, but this has moved me to comment. I lived in Toronto for...

Re: Upcoming rulebooks?

What I'd like is an free or low-priced pdf of a fairly small-scale overground map, and I'd like all current and forthcoming modules to be placed on that map. That way we can have consistency between modules and let PC wander sandbox style. (Also, would encourage judges to buy all the modules.) Final...

Re: DISCUSS: Level-0 Occupations with minor Class Abilities

It is the biggest verisimilitude (for want of a better word) breaker for me. The massive change in the arcane classes from 0 to 1st.... As I see it, the transformation from Level 0 to Level 1 owes to the mental awakening that comes from 'stepping through the looking glass'. The characters have must...

I call them Zeroes. From zeroes to heroes is what the funnel is about.

Re: DISCUSS: Level-0 Occupations with minor Class Abilities

I have a single question: what about the scribe, for example, that chooses to become a warrior? Yeah, that was my main concern, and why I brought up tying those features to ability scores. Class choices, except for demi-humans, will likely be determined by ability scores (though not always.) Colin'...

Re: DISCUSS: Level-0 Occupations with minor Class Abilities

Thanks for your thoughts, Rev. I think I'd prefer to keep these 'minor class abilities' tied to occupation as opposed to attributes, because high attributes already provide enough advantages to the PC. I have yet to run an adventure in DCC RPG, and I'm just developing my first funnel. Have really st...

DISCUSS: Level-0 Occupations with minor Class Abilities

I propose to give some occupations access to minor class abilities, and I'd like to hear what ya'll think. To justify: I believe it would make the leap from level-0 to level-1 seem a little less gargantuan, and follow more logically with the powers that come from level 1. For instance, the wizard cl...

Just wanted to share my two pence on Gamescience dice. While I support Mr. Zocchi's assertion that unpolished dice are more 'precise', I think it's shite that he charges so much more than his competitors for what amounts to a less labour and resource-intensive manufacture (i.e. no painting, no tumbl...

Re: Got my copy, need a group! London UK

Hi Hawkwind,

I'd rather not play online, but if you want to pair up for tabletop DCC, then we've at least got a start.

I'm interested in GMing, but happy to trade-off GM duties.

A few of the guys in my regular Pathfinder group might be coerced into playing, but I'm not feeling very much enthusiasm from them. They all have a v...
