Hello Rollers!

We hope you've been enjoying playing with Roll20 for DCC and both Goodman Games and the folks at Metamorphic appreciate your feedback and bug reports. The Metamorphic team has been working hard to implement them and they have provided me with patch notes of everything that's been addressed and what's going to be fixed in the next update before the end of the month. You all helped make these corrections possible, so thank you very much.

Completed

Core Rule Book + Sheet

 - Critical + Fumble buttons added to Weapon section. Luck modifier is automatically added to both and the Fumble button will take armor into account.

 - Rollable Tables tab added to Sheet. Tables include all options by default, but die size can be decreased if you need to roll a smaller die.

 - Hit Die button added to sheet to generate HP when leveling.

 - Ammunition counter added for missile weapons.

 - Missile weapons correctly add Agility modifier to attack rolls now.

 - Gold value added to armor.

 - Making a Luck roll now displays whether or not you succeed in a Luck Check by default.

 - Deed Die for Warrior + Dwarf has been updated. The deed die must be rolled at the start of every round of combat manually - once initially rolled, that bonus will be automatically added to attack and damage rolls. Rolling the deed die again updates the bonus to the new value.

 - Charactermancer Button added so you can reopen it if accidentally closed or you want to reroll your stats on the same character.

 - Add a "Current Stats" field when stats are temporarily reduced.

 - Add a "roll health" button for NPCs to automate health based on Hit Dice instead of manually rolling.

 - Add "Notes" field to all weapons, armor, and equipment.

 - Add handouts for all unique items found in the module

The next patch should correct any outstanding issues that have been reported, but if you find anything else that needs attention, please continue to report them to Metamorphic via this link: https://support.metamorphic-digital.com/

If you're encountering any lingering issues with fulfillment (codes not working, no codes delivered, etc.), please contact Goodman Games at [email protected] and our excellent Customer Service team will be happy to get things sorted.

The various Roll20 for DCC products will go on sale next week and with that we'll be wrapping up this Backerkit project. I'd like to once again thank you for your support which made this all possible. We're looking forward to working with Metamorphic on future projects and we'll announce what those are when the time is right.

In the meantime, here's a couple of other crowdfunding projects we'd like to draw your attention to:

Terror From the Underdeep is our next crowdfunding, “sooner or later” when we finish up a few other things. Follow the project to learn more details as we announce them.

Get Ready for A Bestiary of Children's Nightmares

Hello, all you high-rollers! It's May and we've received more news from our friends over at Metamorphic Digital Studio about progress on the Roll20 For DCC project. Right now all the core rulebook's images are loaded onto Roll20's servers, which is going to speed up the creation of the compendium once the cascading style sheets are loaded onto the platform as well. This will hopefully be done before the end of May and then things can really get chugging along. Then it's time to start tackling adventures!

Speaking of sheets, the devs have been adding flavor and decorative elements to the character sheets while this is all underway. When you choose your class, the character sheet style will change as well. Here are some examples of the decorated character sheets that Metamorphic shared with us. Anyone who knows the great artwork that goes into DCC products will be happy to see that the Roll20 version isn't skimping on these!

We here at Goodman Games are quite pleased with Metamorphic's progress and we'll continue to keep you fine backers updated as we receive regular status reports from their DCC Roll20 team. We're all looking forward to the day people around the globe can hop onto Roll20 for a new DCC RPG campaign without a ton of work needed. More to come when we hear it!

And for those who might have missed it, Roll20 recently announced that Roll20 will be coming to Discord as an Activity. Yes, you can now have you Roll20 peanut butter in your Discord chocolate! You can read about that here.

Caverns of Thracia Returns!

Backers might be interested to know that signups for advance notification of Goodman Games' next crowdfunding project are now live. Coming in less than two months will be Caverns of Thracia for both DCC RPG and 5e. This legendary adventure is jam-packed with more than 100 new monsters, a five-level dungeon, a ruined city, an island archipelago, plus new magic and spells, and offers a year or more of adventure around the table. Suitable for levels 1-10 (5e) or 1-5 (DCC), Caverns of Thracia makes for the perfect next installment in Goodman Games' ongoing OAR line of adventures. Please stop by the Caverns of Thracia landing page and sign up to be notified when the campaign goes live. Don't miss out on this one!

Hello all!

We're happy to report that Metamorphic is hard at work converting the DCC RPG rules over to Roll20. As you can imagine, with so many tables and charts, this isn't an easy or quick job, but the fine folks at Metamorphic are proving to be up to the challenge.

Just recently, they shared with us some details of the work in progress. We're greatly pleased with how things are going in just the short time they've been at work. Here are some screenshots of what they’re working on! . Check these out!

The text/math on these graphics are just placeholders for now, so don't worry if thing looks a little wonky. We want to make sure the big picture is working properly before we get down into the nitty gritty details. Bear in mind, too, that everything is still in the early stages and what you see here might not reflect where things end up. 

Once we get the majority of the DCC rulebook ported over to Roll20, work can begin converting the modules too. In the meantime, we here at Goodman Games haven't been idle. We're already at work on the cool art assets for the tokens and reviewing the module maps to see how best to convert them over to Roll20. This is going to be awesome!

We'll have more to report as Metamorphic sends us status updates and we'll share the news with you as we get it. Keep an eye our for more as we receive it!

Thank you all for supporting the Roll20 for DCC Backerkit campaign. We said at the start of this campaign that it would be up to the fans to determine if there was a desire to bring DCC RPG to Roll20 and you showed us without a doubt that there was. Your belief in this project was 100% responsible for it becoming a reality and we can’t thank you enough.

We ended last night a mere $140 short of the final stretch goal to add a seventh DCC module to the planned six Metamorphic is converting to Roll20. So, although we can’t thank you enough, we can say “close enough” and call that last stretch goal achieved! Those of you who backed at the DCC Core Rules + First 6 Adventures tier will receive a seventh adventure as well (title to be determined). The converted seventh adventure will ultimately be available for purchase separately via Goodman Games and Roll20 for those of you who chose to back at a lower tier.

Now comes the hard part: the waiting. We’ll be making the final arrangements with Metamorphic to start converting DCC RPG and the adventures over to Roll20 and will update you once we have more information about that process. Metamorphic has an established track record of creating stellar products for Roll20 and we know were in good hands. Hopefully, this is just the beginning of a long history of making DCC RPG and other Goodman Games’ products available for Roll20. Thank you again for supporting this Backerkit project and believing in DCC RPG for Roll20. 

May your (virtual) dice always roll in your favor!

Hi everyone!

Congratulations, you're getting a charactermancer!

We're here at GAMA Expo this week. I had a chance to sit down with the Metamorphic team for breakfast. Metamorphic (formerly known as Sigil) has coded some of the best Roll20 conversions out there, and they're the ones who will handle DCC on Roll20.

Here we are, plotting world domination...and also talking charactermancers! We're able to make the charactermancer work at $29k so we are going to call that stretch goal CLEARED. Congratulations everyone, you're getting a charactermancer!

With that in mind, we've set up one more stretch goal. Help us clear $32k and we can throw another DCC adventure into the mix. Fair warning: it will be a "skinny module" not a huge hardcover. We had some great suggestions in our recent poll so we will definitely consider the results of that poll in the selection.

Today is the last day for this crowdfunding. Really only half a day remains. Please tell your friends and let's bring DCC to Roll20 in the best possible way!

Again, thanks to all our amazing backers who have come out to support the Horde is startling fashion! We’ve knocked off two more stretch goals: Sandbox Notes for the regions around the Orb, and the Bestiary! Now onto tech loot and another mini-adventure, The Rift that Breaths!

Mini Adventure Update
Speaking of mini-adventures, we made a mistake with the free mini-adventure available to those who back within the first 48 hours. The original plan was to add Caves of the Orb Thralls as a $2 add-on after the first 48 hours had passed.. but we accidentally set the date incorrectly so the add-on was available from the very beginning. Unfortunately , once someone adds that add-on (and 25 of you did), we can’t delete it.

So the updated plan is we’re now creating another mini-adventure called Death Sentries of the Orb Shadow, which is now the free mini-adventure offered to all you wonderful backers who have backed the campaign in the first 48 hours. It will become available as an add-on after the free period passes. This also means that Caves of the Orb Thralls will remain up as an add-on that all who are interested can add to their pledge. Sorry for the confusion: and thanks for your incredible support!
