Considering Running Castle Whiterock

I'm thinking of running a Castle Whiterock dungeon crawl campaign through MapTool on OnlineDnD.com. Will I be able to buy the game in pdf format? If I buy the print version, do I get the online version for free? If I just buy the pdf, is it cheaper? A pdf is much easier to cut and paste room descriptions into MapTool.

If it is anything like past DCC modules (adventures?) it will be avilable in PDF. The DCCs I have bought in PDF have been less expensave then the print versions (and easier for me to smuggle into work and study on game day). The print version does not include a free PDF version. (I think Mr. Goodman has said he doesn't want to put local game stores at a disadvantage & there is no easy way to sell the PDFs at a local game store -- I assume he means no easy way to make watermarked PDFs at a gamestore)

Again, that is for past DCCs, I have no knolage of what goodman games will do in the future.

Maybe they will manage to somehow get an inexpensave proces to put magic codes under a scratchoff coating so you can buy the print version and know you can get the PDF is nobody scratched off the coating. However I doubt it since printing a custom code on each item off of a print run is not very affordable, and I bet that silver scratchoff coating isn't free, and local game stores don't want to have to watch eveyone who touches a DCC to see if they are scratching stuff off!!!

Oh, word up homie. My flash drive (and a friendly DCC or two) gets me through some long, lonely, annoying days at work. :twisted:
