Goodman Games

I have a love/hate relationship with the 4e minion thing at this point. I love the idea of mighty heroes mowing down a horde of orcs or lackeys (view the first page or two of any Conan comic for an example). It also allows the GM to throw a really large group of monsters at the party—40 skeletons su...

JediOre: Rick, thanks for the complement. It made my day.

I just calls 'em like I see 'em, my friend.

JediOre: Make the trogs stand at least seven foot and rippling with reptilian muscle. JediOre has demonstrated his jedi-like wisdom yet again, and also beat me in replying (this weekend I temporarily moved my computer away from my online connection for easier writing on a GG project, so I hope you'...

I hope your party is still relatively intact after the first two modules named Jezza, they'll probably need to be!
Otherwise they may never leave the Dragonspires alive...

Sounds like an impressive combat, IK. Thanks for the synopsis! (I can say with confidence that all the DCC authors like reading about experiences had with their adventures. It improves the writer, and keeps one from writing in a vacuum, so to speak.) So keep those tales coming—I'd be delighted to he...

Great Artwork too! :wink: I was extremely pleased with the way the artwork turned out. We have a very talented group of artists lending their hand and making our modules truly sing. Those reading this should check out Andy's great work too (via links in his original post). Gotta love those DAT-insp...

IK,

Those dimensions sound fine. (I pretty much pictured it along those lines, though perhaps a taller than 1 inch and cone shaped.)

Sort of this shape:

But any shape will do!

Do let us all know how it turns out IK. Re-tellings of dragon battles are a great pleasure to old-timers such as myself.

The quote was mine, so I'll take the blame for that! :) The pech could wall them in, or a rockslide (common in the area) could wall them in (leaving the dragon's exit tunnel as their only exit), but ultimately it might be better to let the players do as they will. If the PCs take longer than 5 days ...

A sad day indeed. I owe my desire to write RPG adventures to the Master, and I deeply appreciate the gift he gave us all.

Thank you Gary.

---- and on a bad day could be taken out by a single grenade! I'll up Jen's :shock: and raise that :shock: :shock: ! I sit high atop my lonely mountain fortress and have nothing to do with the madmen locked in the asylum known best as Goodman Games East. I receive their manuscripts in plain, unmark...

Alas, I cannot match Jeff's great animated eye tyrant, but let me join in and wish you a great birthday Mike.
Here's to many more years of writing fantastic adventures!

Ogrepuppy wrote:God, Delta Green (and associated books) are so well done.

Agreed. I've always considered the original Delta Green book one of the best written game supplements ever.

...oh, wait, some of the players read this board.

Fooey!

True Neutral Elf Bard?!?

Hmmmrf.

More great material None, especially the great hall shots. I love the last beauty shot too. Awesome.
These would be very helpful the next time I run Scaly God for a new batch of victims.

Ditto!

Wonderful, wonderful work, None. I'm gratified to see my vision truly come to life, thanks to your skill. A great many elements seem stolen right out of my head, the way I always pictured them (and I appreciate the great, sensible structural additions/notes as well). As always, your work is stunnin...

GnomeBoy wrote:IMHO, that has The Call of Cthulhu written all over it!

Cthulhu indeed.
It makes me think of Lovecraft's short story "The Colour Out of Space"...

Thanks for the kind words Mike.
I'll have to remember your unqiue fighting tactic the next time I play a "strategically challenged" fighter!

They got in a line... Rathulagon, being evil and not dumb, couldn't pass it up. KRAKA-BOOM! Awesome recap Jengenritz, thanks! :D I've really enjoyed your recountings here, well told and I hope you continue with other DCCs when time allows. Many of the encounters are not "hard" (by the boo...

You missed out on the best "oh ****" moment of the 3rd round. That creature terrified us like nothing else in the tournament. To quote a tiny part of an e-mail wherein I first mentioned the worm idea to Harley: "...an encounter that is memorable, the sort where the players look at ea...

Ah...that must be the delapidated demonic entrance hall where the purple worm burst up from underneath the stairs... Ah! I was wondering how the PCs enjoyed my little pet worm. (Heh heh.) :twisted: Thanks Jengenritz, as always, for coordinating & running what sounds like the best tournament yet...

Excellent questions raised here Ogrepuppy. I often use old movies or television shows for inspiration. Sometimes the campier shows, such as Lost in Space, are surprisingly good fodder for ideas. I have used current events as well (I listen to NPR and watch the cable news often) but its important to ...
