Hey!
We have tried to keep the updates to a minimum since we know Backerkit also sends automated emails. I'm sure we all get too many emails ;)
However, we want to be in com...

Strategicon Update
We had an absolute blast at Strategicon. I myself ran 6 games for 4 hours each with 5-8 players per game. What an endurance run! My first game was "The Discovery of the Doomw...

100% Funded and Meet the Triclops
You are all amazing and we have reached 100% funded! We went with a higher goal this campaign based on the success of our last 3 modules and we nailed it in just 4 days. We s...
Hey! We have tried to keep the updates to a minimum since we know Backerkit also sends automated emails. I'm sure we all get too many emails ;)
However, we want to be in communication to the general backer body. For most of you, there have been no issues and for that, we are grateful. 64% of surveys are completed. We just clicked "lock orders in 48hrs" today which should also prompt anyone who has yet to complete their survey. Mostly, the surveys help to give us address for shipping physical copies (and computing rates), confirm all orders and any add-ons, and then move us along to the step where we can make the PDFs available for download. If you still haven't completed the survey, please do that right away.
The polls were a fun way to engage with our fans.
The Triclops will add a +d8 for his Mighty Deed attack bonus. Look out for us sharing his signature move in future updates.
The monster stat block that Marc created will be used in both the print and PDF copies of this adventure. Most of you really liked it.
The streamlined, "judge's prep" version of the adventure will be sent to all backers of the adventure as a free add-on PDF.
For the general timeline, here is what April looks like:
lock orders and charge cards
start PDF distribution (please help us "stomp the typo" and send any feedback to us right away)
send master file off to the printer for a proof copy
order 200 copies of the print copy
sort out and print the shipping labels before USPS adds their fuel surcharge (we are very happy to announce that we sorted out an arrangement with PirateShip to get a discount on International rates so that brought the prices way down from our last 3 campaigns AND we are adding extra special packaging for those as well #dggworldwide)
get the team together and have a "packing/shipping party"
drop the postal box full of print modules at the post office (while we still have one)
then get right back at it for DGG's next TWO adventure modules in the Calisdoom series; both level 2 and both in playtest right now. We aim to launch the crowdfund campaign for these together in August/September
!!!HUGE ANNOUCEMENT!!!
All of us here at DGG (Cro, Paul, Marc) will be going to GenCon this year!! We can't wait to meet you at the tables and at the Goodman booth. We will each be running games for Goodman as well as running our own (published and playtesting) adventures. We all love to play in convention games with the authors, so we are making that available for you!
Thank you all for being a huge part of why the DCC community is the BEST in TTRPGs! ~Judge Cro
Well after a week in the mountains with no service, I am back to civilization and happy to see we surpassed one of the late stretch goals! I will be working hard to finalize the layout for the module and sending it off to the printer by next week for our "proof" and once approved, full printing will begin. That means, by the time the backerkit survey comes out in a couple weeks, PDFs should just about be ready to go out and printing should be starting if not done already. This keeps us on track for our April shipping expectation.
I did spend some time writing while up in those mountains and I am happy to say, playtesting of my follow up, second level module should be starting soon! If you are interested in being part of a playtest, I plan on running live at Strategicon, possibly Gen Con and some online games. Reach out and let me know if you are interested as I will need a pool of victims...I mean players to test out my crazy ideas!
Lastly, the preorder page will be up and live in case you missed the campaign itself and still want your copy of Discovery of the Doomweaver!!!
The final big bad of this 7 module campaign is planned to be the Death Guaranteed Games Triclops. We want to allow you, the community to help create him and influence his stats. Each module we launch will allow the community to have their say on how powerful this final Chaos Lord should be. Our first stat will be his attack/to hit modifier. We anticipate this being around a 4th-5th level module.
We are excited to bring you this series of adventures. Because of your incredible support, we reached our initial funding goal in just 48 hours!
This project started as a dream, and you’re making it a reality. To say thank you—and to make The Discovery of the Doomweaver even better—we are officially announcing our Stretch Goals.
Here is what we can unlock together:
$2500 - [DGG Sticker]: If we hit this, every physical backer gets 1 of our DGG Triclops logo vinyl stickers at no additional cost.
$2800 - [Doomweaver cover art sticker]: If we hit this, every physical backer gets 1 of the cover art vinyl stickersat no additional cost.
$3000 - [2 Doomweaver Sword Sticker]: If we hit this, every physical backer gets 2 of Doomweaver sword vinyl stickers (1 for the judge to keep and 1 to handout to the soul brave enough to claim it!) at no additional cost.
How you can help: Share our page with one person today. Word of mouth is the only reason we've come this far!
Additionally, the three eyes of the triclops came together to discuss using DCC for campaign and long format play in Episode 1 of our Death Guaranteed Games Deathcast. Follow the link to hear about our experiences and some fun and interesting rulings we have made at tables.
How do you like the monster stat block in the layout preview? We tried to make the most important stats easy to identify and manage while running at the table.
