Re: The Case AGAINST Elf Spellburn

Yeah. Hey, maybe that's what happens to Elves who get corruption and use Spellburn? They have children who end up on the 0-Level Occupation table? I thought maybe that's where goblins come from... twisted, mutated elves. Heh, I was making a joke about inbred hillbilly elves, but sure, that's an ide...

Re: Just the basics

I am planning on using Sailors for our funnel. Do you feel it is necessary for PCs to level to level 1 in order to complete the module? How did you do it in play tests/previous runs? I have never kept track of experience for 0-Level characters. If they survive the adventure, they make level 1. And ...

Re: Out of Luck

One of my players rolled up a character with 16 luck and so named the character "Lucky." Well, he made it through the first adventure and became a wizard. That should have been the first sign the character was doomed. On his second adventure he didn't fare that well. I like how some of th...

Re: The Case AGAINST Elf Spellburn

Yeah, but remember that you should be generating 3 or 4 Level 0 characters. If I got an Elf, Dwarf or Halfling like the ones you mention, they'd be the first ones whose 'curiosity' would lead them into the most dangerous situations first. I mean, an INT 7 elf? When you're intellectually Gumped by th...

Re: Frozen in Time = Fantastic sci-fi fun!

I ran it with 3 Level 1 PCs and a half dozen Level 0 meatbags. It played out in about 3.5 hours. Those who didn't end up being killed by the robot, blown up by the malfunctioning blaster or being teleported into the past, all died in the end as the building collapsed in on them. Good times... :twist...

Re: VOID HUNTERS: Seventies Sci-Fi Gaming...

A brilliant idea from Ragboy arrived in my email yesterday, and I thought I'd share it: As I was thinking about this adventure and the Void Hunters mileau in general, I came upon something that might be of interest. The patron system is one of those core "crunchy bits" of DCC that makes it...

Re: Need rules for mass combat...using DCC characters

There are quite a few, from Battlesystem , which is specifically for AD&D and might translate well, to Fields of Battle , which is for Castles & Crusades and is D20 based, which might be closer to DCC, to the Adventurer Conquerer King system's Domains of War, which is the most recent variati...

AJ, the Average Joe is genius. Great way to get the party suspicious of the one guy who rolls on the Weird table, even as he protests his innocence. Or possibly tries to mislead them by telling them he rolled Average Joe. :twisted: So good, I added it twice. Raven, Ex-Broker isn't really weird, but ...

It has more to do than Talisman, more choices to make, more flavorful magic, etc. Think of it as an entire RPG campaign that can be played in a single evening.

Re: VOID HUNTERS: Seventies Sci-Fi Gaming...

A real quick question: Do you think there are too many Synthetic and Psion spots on the Occupation Chart? Should I maybe limit them more and then have the exact type rolled up on a separate table, like the Technician Jobs? I was thinking maybe placing them in spots 1-6, instead of 1 through 9, reduc...

Just to clarify, the Weird table is for Weird Occupations. Basically, bizarre secret occupations that the character has underlying their main occupation. It is rolled randomly be the GM so that the player may, or may not know the result, which may be revealed later. Still, I've upgraded the list to ...
