Re: Can Clerics Reverse Spells?
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...

Re: Wizards and Padded Armor

Where to Print a Self-Published OSR Module?
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...

Re: Wizards and Padded Armor
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...

Re: Let's Talk About Spellburn
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...

Re: New Judge Here Question About Old Modules
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...

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 ...

Re: Sword Magic Typo?
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 ...

Re: first campaign
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 ...

When you back a Kickstarter to are paying the maker to attempt to make a product. According to the creator, the project was mostly already done, with issue #4 set to be published regardless of funding goals, and issues 5 and 6 already having been in playtesting, so the only gamble was whether they ...
