Re: First Time Judge

Glad to hear they had fun! With my group I have found that without so many powers and rules to manage they are getting more into the interactions with each other

Re: So what's in Appendix N anyway?

lies! everyone knows pg 444 contains the incantation to summon Yog-Sothoth to the physical plane; and merely reading the first paragraph of the page has been known to drive the reader mad resulting in hallucinations, institutionalizing, or worse starting a career as an architect specializing in non ...

Re: First Time Judge

Well Happy Holidays everybody :) so the halfling player rerolled as an elf and she seems much happier (only one game so far so we will see) but she seems to enjoy the flexibilty of having magic and melee-even with magic being a bit unpredictable ( i think the real issue for her was she just had prob...

Re: First Time Judge

So i'd figure I'd check in -it's December and the game is still going strong though the party has shrunken a bit -the current regulars are 2 warriors, a priest, a halfling and thief. The thief is new from the original group, the other 4 are from the original set. We still have a 2nd cleric who is sp...

Re: First Time Judge

But I don't think you need to *plan* for their burning Luck. It can be a get out of jail free card, but then it's spent and it won't be coming back as fast as it went out... They'll be without it for a short or long while (well, not with none, but with less). It's self regulating. Just keep throwin...

Re: First Time Judge

Ok so the first adventure is done. No one died, though several party members are scarred, and I might have been to nice when hinting to one player to spend enough luck on a failed save ( How do you all normally handle that?). Our mage seems to have fallen off ( he has two very young twins so its har...

Re: First Time Judge

I've upped the threats to what I would have considered 2nd or 3rd level and it seems to be working better, fight has some more stakes. They seem at level 1 to have a tendency to glass cannon-they can do lots of damage but are fragile on the return, especially if a cleric goes down. The original adve...

Re: First Time Judge

Remember also that a halfling using two weapons only fumbles if both d16 come up "1"! both times it was with a short bow :) she does have two daggers for two handed fighting but she got the lucky weapon roll and decided to make it the short bow which makes the fumbles that more hysterical...

Re: First Time Judge

It will fix itself in the long run. Remember that to be "same", a PC has to be of the same alignment and religion. It should be fun to set up a rivalry between the two clerics. Also, regardless of the roll, you can up Disapproval for "sinful use of divine power", which could inc...

Re: First Time Judge

so first question=-the party ended up running two clerics, and so far it feels as if the multiple healing makes them a bit more invulnerable than I'd thought. Now it may just be a case that the clerics haven't rolled poorly enough to start building up those disapprovals ( the poor mage by contrast h...

Re: First Time Judge

thats good advice-spell effects seem to slow things down the most-going to photocopy those pages for the spell casters so they dont bog down next time

First Time Judge

So tomorrow I will run my first game of Dungeon Crawl Classics. I have had a bit of hiatus from RPGs (a few years) but got the bug again and with some careful nudging from Mike Curtis who may have killed off several of my characters in my long forgotten youth, decided to try DCC as I have fond memor...
