Goodman Games

I kickstarted BII and got both hardcovers as a reward, they are good quality. I've not had any quality issues with RPGNow PoD, or in fact lulu.

LOL I didn't notice, I hit the unread posts and this one was on top!

I blame interweb gremlins for my 'inattentioness'

Bugger, Fin got in there first. I have been looking for one for ages

It strikes me as wrong every time I read it: "Remember the good old days, when adventures were underground, NPCs were there to be killed, and the finale of every dungeon was the dragon on the 20th level? Those days are back. Dungeon Crawl Classics don't waste your time with long-winded speeches...

A Russ Nicholson cover would be my got to buy, or maybe Elmore...

How bout this wrapped around the book?

Ah cool, not out here in NZ yet tho. My wallet weeps in anticipation.

LotR Lego is coming some time soon

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. I would probably make all the zeroes teen apprentice types then have a break of many years as they refined their skills before getting back together for their first ad...

It seriously only takes 3 dice to play DCC - a d12, a d10, and a d8. To me one of the beauties of the DCC system is the fact that you don't have to do too much math, cos the die just changes size rather than heaps of mods. I know you can do all the stuff on normal dice (too much math) or e-dice (no...

But they are not all the same design, I think. The Koplow d14/7 I have seen is an ugly as sin white with multi-coloured numbers monstrosity that is over sized. I know we can get them in bits in pieces but I want them as a nice set. Or are you saying we can get a nice standard sized with matching col...

Sent an enquiry, see what comes back.

I'd back the hell out of something like this, I would want them all in the same colour though. Dif colour numerals for d7/d14 for example. And not 'more random but not as nice to hold or roll' precision style either! Comfort over accuracy.

I'm in

Woot I'm in (Edit: and I get to design a monster/NPC/Location! ), and man Kickstarter is killng my wallet... so much goodness there!

Heh. Bizarrely, I'm waiting for the final word on relocating my family's life to the other side of the planet (New Zealand).

The right choice there bro!

Oh I pre-ordered them, looking forward to getting them

Ooooh looks like the first issue is posted. Must admit I was confused as hell to get a paypal email saying straycouches has sent me something. WTF is straycouches? Has my account been hacked? Oh no that is the Crawl fanzine

Looking forward to it

Even including shipping from UK/USA amazon is about half price compared to the massively over priced books in NZ, all books. Now that amazon.co.uk have dropped the free shipping to NZ I also get a lot from bookdepository.com/.co.uk; their prices include free shipping. Like 42$NZ for the Pathfinder B...

Yeah although I have my (2 ;) ) copies because of the pre-order AND the temporary offer of $4 shipping I find 'no Amazon' an odd decision. There are about 3 or 4 places in the entire NZ that could sell DCC but the mark up would be (like all games they sell) massive and none are anywhere near me. Man...

Oh yeah, in my PJs on Sat morning with poorly kids watching Scooby Do I get a knock on the door and YES there it is HARDCORE SWEDISH POR... I mean POST! No dings, maybe cos both books in the box :) Decided to make them feel at home and not too fat. Bigger than PfRPG Core but Ptolus and ToHC are larg...

The 1st ADnD books had a really distinctive smell, I hope for that!

I'm thinking about faking a migraine just so I can go home and read it.

Well, with the size, if you are not careful you could get time off work damaging your back lifting it!

Great work guys! If/when we make it to a 2nd printing, I intend to fix everything noted in the "stomp the typos" thread, and I'll also include this index. Although it will be tough to decide which piece of full-page art I'll have to remove from the end gallery to substitute for the index....

You are correct.

I need to change my poll vote!

The art debate aside, and there has been some interesting stuff with this and Myth and Magic kickstarter (a cover changed then both offered due to the old-school cheesecake), DCC is as far from DnDNext as I can imagine. The little things that are similar, as listed by the OP, are far far far away fr...
