Oh, that sucks!

It's option B: Wizards are limited to a certain number of memorizable spells only, depending on level.

It's a very different system of magic than you find in D&D. Instead of getting more "spell slots" to be used per day at a new XP level, in DCC, you know that many more spells, total.

As always, it's up to you, and the rulebook provides some guidelines for this, but one thing I want to add for your consideration is the old D&D way of doing it, which is that for chaotic clerics (anti-clerics), some of the spells were reversed by default, and they could only learn the "evi...

Just bumping the thread in July 2022...any word on when last year's GFA is coming out?

And a fine, fine supplement! I use it as standard.

While a Wizard will seldom make attack rolls Wizards seldom make attack rolls? Sorry, are you asking me a question? That's usually what the little curly mark with the dot at the bottom means. (for reference: "?") Why would you say that a Wizard seldom makes attack rolls? And seriously, yo...

Hi all, I have an OSR module I've been working on, and I'm thinking of publishing it in digital/PDF form as well as print (basic B&W with glossy cover, no collectible gold foil or anything). Can anyone give some leads on where to get the physical modules printed and what typical costs per unit m...

You're the Judge.

What in the heck is going on in this spell? [...] I'm well aware of the heights of pedantry to which I have soared with this post. And yet, here you are, posting anyway. LOL I had Sleep 32+ come up once in a game. Nothing about its description seemed confusing in the least. Everything, including th...

So correct me if I'm wrong: Under armor, it says that the check penalty applies to spell checks for Wizards, but since padded armor doesn't have a penalty, that means Wizards can wear it with no problems. Right? Correct, if there's no check to the armor, then there's no check to be applied to the s...

Wizards seldom make attack rolls?

Of course, but my point is that the spellburn costs pretty much REQUIRE you to start each adventure right after another, or spells with (semi)-permanent effects will be cast for free. This has been a hugely painful thread to read, so maybe next time, just don't do this, but to me, the bottom line i...

I'm glad that #101, Veiled Vaults, is coming right behind as it's been WAY too long without an official, numbered DCC RPG module release IMO! I know that between COVID & other product lines, a lot else has been going on in the last few years, but the long pause between numbered DCC RPG modules h...

I respect your opinion my friend. Opinions are statements like, "Grape soda is bad," or "Baseball is entertaining to watch," things that just involve taste or preference, statements that are not objectively true or false but just reflections of a person's subjective feelings. Th...

Since we're talking old (pre-DCC RPG) modules, I would love to see DCC RPG conversions of all the old material! Seems like a low-effort move that would dramatically increase the amount of DCC RPG canon, especially for those of us who aren't as into Lankhmar and the other product lines that have been...

Similar question here: My current online group is only one GM, two players. I'm thinking about throwing DCC into the ring when it's my turn to GM again. I'd like to start with a funnel (probably Starless Sea, because I already know it from the other side of the gaming table and like it), but I'm no...

What that means if you look at GnomeBoy's answer is: No, there is still no official input or clarification, even after 10 years. :-/ IDK what your aggro tone is about, but it's weird. OP was about the playtest rules before DCC RPG was even finished, and it indeed has since been clarified. The deed ...

the inerrancy and infallibility of the Holy Scriptures, this is a true historical period

Spoiler alert: it isn't.

At a quick glance (which is all I've been able to give it unfortunately), or even careful perusal of the spells section I agree with you. It does read as "see previous entry" style writing. Yeah, it usually means that at the higher dice total, you get the effects of previous, lower-level ...

The one in the rulebook, Portal Under the Stars, is a good module and definitely can be done in 4 hours.

You mentioned that you're getting hung up on PDF formatting, but that sounds like more of a psychological block to me, a sort of perfectionism maybe? Just run with what you have. Trust me; people will want the content. I know I do! You're not wrong. I am depressed. Not about TA. But it has affected...

I've just picked up DCC and intend to run the Portal under the Stars for my sons and then hopefully my gaming group, but wondered what would be a good module or two to pick up after that? I've seen Doom of the Savage Kings mentioned a few times but can't seem to find a print copy over here in the U...

I know this company produced modules for D&D3.5 some years ago and they used a "World of Aereth" setting. Are the modules for the DCC system supposed to also be set in that same world? Loosely, yes, though by no means do you need to read through the older 3.0 Aereth sourcebooks to do ...

I want us to get as much of the DCC experience as possible, so I really want to run a funnel module. But I’m wondering: Is this even possible with a single player? If it is, is there a particular module that is conducive to this? Thanks! Keith I've run one-on-one sessions, including two funnels, Po...
