I figure I would start this thread as suggested on another topic.
My request for Goodman games would be an adventure like the Conan story "Tower of the Elephant".

Re: Adventure/Campaign ideas for DCC RPG
My players and ,as a result, their respective characters are known to be amoral bastards. I find that even the mercs under the best of employees are usually hired to create disorder or carnage against rivals. So I wouldn't mind seeing more adventures for players with fouler dispositions than most.
Re: Adventure/Campaign ideas for DCC RPG
How about a quest to learn an advanced fighting technique from a master swordsman?
I imagine that it would involve reaching an isolated locale where the sword-sage had hidden himself from the realms of man. Finding it would, of course be, only half the battle. In order to prove worthy, the warrior would need to perform a series of trials while the rest of the party defended him from the assaults of agents of law or chaos determined to prevent so deadly a technique from falling into the hands of the other side. Finally, a great showdown between the master and the party would involve the very elements of nature as the world itself rebelled against the passing of so great a secret.
Ok. Well, I might just need to design that now.

Good idea, maybe even one based off of "The Devil in Iron" or a "Rouges in the House" based adventure would be a good one for a party with more "questionable ethics".Karaptis wrote:I figure I would start this thread as suggested on another topic.

A Conan campaign would be excellent for DCC.Karaptis wrote:I figure I would start this thread as suggested on another topic.

I've also been thinking of running a Lankhmar game (Fafhrd & Grey Mouser) because of its ties to Appendix N.
