Re: Purple Duck Adventures and Crawl Fanzine...

I have enjoyed the d30 DM companion as well if we are branching outside into the OSR third party realm of Dungeon Alphabet and Random Esoteric Creatures :) Like you, I love 'zines. Crawl! basically sealed the deal for me when deciding to try out DCC RPG. I had a few of the goodman modules from the e...

Re: Brave Halfling Publishing...what gives? Never buy again.

Don't forget that with services like Kickstarter, if the project falls through amazon still takes their cut. So, you really _can't_ refund everything to the backers. Honestly, I think the OSR would be best off using a p500 style system a la GMT and MMP wargame companies or along the lines that Micha...

Re: DCC boxed set?

We're not in disagreement. I'm already playing board games with my son, who turns 3 in October, and you can bet he'll have played a lot of analog games and read a lot of classic literature by the time he gets to be a teenager. Raising them with analog games and controlling the over-exposure to tech...

That was awesome; I loved Optimo's performance in the "Mosh Pit" with those scaly lil Yellow buggers as well. Nothing like the two handed salad shooter to make short work of a bunch of "Stryper" fans.

Re: Grimtooth's Traps and DCC RPG

Actually, the original book has a rating system as to how deadly it is. That translates well to Menial, Easy, Moderate, Difficult, and Godly checks for detection and removal. Most of the traps are really just silly and fun to read. But, there are definitely some that jigger and inspire custom ideas....
