Castles & Crusades modules

Post by JediOre »

I'm curious how well have they done?

Shall we see more published by Goodman Games or has the return on the investment been less than stellar?

With 4ed looming, I'm very curious to see if C&C gains more traction among gamers.

There are more coming. The Slithering Overlord will be in stores this month, and Dread Crypt of Srihoz is next on the agenda!

Have you thought about, instead of re-releasing DCCs as C&C modules, simply selling PDF conversions at a low cost?

Thought about it, yes... though I find that many people prefer a "complete package." It's kind of like the difference between running a module with stats in the encounters, and running a module with stats in an appendix in the back. A lot of people say they prefer the appendix at the back (saves space, you don't repeat stats if orcs appear in more than one room, etc.), but it's a lot harder to play due to all the page flipping. When it comes to modules, whether DCC or C&C, I prefer to make them as easy to use as possible, and that means consolidating everything into one book.

I think this is great news! I love the DCC's and I'm really happy to some of them being done in a C&C format.

I've bought all the ones you've done so far and I'm looking forward for more.

Many thanks!

Anyone willing to divulge details about future Castles and Crusades modules / DCC conversions?

Do the C&C modules sell enough where you could do new adventures for them instead of conversions?
