so you know, with the 3.5 publishing slow down and all, whiterock came at the exact right time. all those other ninny publishing companies aren't going to put out jack or spit before 4e...........but who cares? i have enough whiterock to last me into the next edition and beyond.

hehehehehehe.......pick up castle whiterock and you won't have to buy anything until 5e. whiterock saved me money!

The way this mother has been hyped, and the (slow) speed that my players go through adventures, I'd think it'll last you for the next several decades!

....My hope is that when I get old, I can be in a retirement home filled with D&Ders. Roleplaying into my golden years.....that's the life.... :P

Please tell me this is going to be on Amazon. My daughter said she'll buy it for my Anniversary/Christmas gift if it gets listed on Amazon.

I vote for Ogrepuppy as Most Beautiful Dreamer. Would it get better than that?

That....that.....almost brought tears to my eyes.

SUCH a cool idea. Arizona dry heat really agrees with my dice. I think they roll better in that atmosphere. :wink:

It will indeed be on Amazon.com, although it will probably take them a couple weeks to get it online.

It will be available as a PDF in about two weeks.

B&N stocks the DCC's in some but not all of their stores. If it doesn't turn up at your local store, they should be able to special order it.

It's here. :: glee ::

Sorry, can't talk now--going to go read. More later if and when I surface for air, food, water or toilet breaks.

Will do. Hopefully it won't be screwed up like my last GG order (which was bumped. BADLY :cry: )

Looks like the forums are going to go silent for awhile until folks digest CW.... :?

It's the size of a phone book. "A while" is probably an understatement.

CW

I've run one session of CW so far, but I've still read less than half of it! I've read through the first 4 levels pretty thoroughly, and skimmed the rest of the first book. I've also read some of the appendices (notably the Inn) and the last levels in the 4th book. I have yet to read books 2 and 3 at all!

Fortunately, to get going running a game you don't need to do a thorough read. If I had, I wouldn't be DMing until next year!!

Thanks Joe! I thought I had remembered reading it generally takes two weeks or more for Amazon to list stuff like this. I'll tell my daughter. :D
