Project Update: FUNDED!!


Hey everyone!

Looks like funded in the first 30 minutes, which is awesome. Thank you all so much.  We're currently sitting a little over 200% funded after about 3 hours. That's even better than I expected. Wow!


With both DCC RPG and 5th Edition versions available, you can't go wrong. Heck, why not grab both versions?

I also want to take a second and remind anyone who is on the fence about our Early Bird reward.  If you back The Carnivorous Cauldron at any of the physical pledge levels (meaning we are actually mailing you something) during the FIRST 48 HOURS you will get a free Carnivorous Cauldron miniature with your order.

And don't forget, Everyone who backs us gets Room 5 of the Castle Whiterock Lost Level!! You have to back Castle Whiterock to get the full Lost Level map. Our insert contains write-ups for both DCC RPG and 5e as well as a full page encounter map.

If you're looking for a fun DCC / MCC RPG crossover adventure, be sure to check out Apocalyptic Adventure! #1 - The Eye of God, launching on BackerKit in June.



Thanks Everyone!

Project Update: The Carnivorous Cauldron awaits!


Hi Everyone!

I can't believe it's finally here! The Carnivorous Cauldron launches tomorrow at 10AM PST / 1PM EST. All the work is done, the books are written, playtested, full of art, and look fantastic!

The DCC RPG version is written by the amazingly twisted Julian Bernick and features cover art and old school B&W interior art by Dan Smith. Cartography by Brett Hess.

The Fifth Edition (5e) version is by (equally twisted) Scott Moore and features glorious color art, cartpgraphy and cover by Raven Evermoor.



EARLY BIRD:
If you back at any physical pledge level duing the first 48 hours, you get a FREE Carnivorous Cauldron miniature!

But wait, there's more...
Everyone who backs us gets Room 5 of the Castle Whiterock Lost Level!! You have to back Castle Whiterock to get the full Lost Level map. Our insert contains write-ups for both DCC RPG and 5e as well as a full page encounter map.

Thanks everyone!!

Project Update: New Early Bird Incentive!



Hi everyone,

The Carnivorous Cauldron is only a week away!!

As an incentive for EARLY BIRD PHYSICAL BACKERS (meaning you back a physical pledge level in the First 48 Hours), we will include a FREE Carnivorous Cauldron miniature with your order.

This does not apply to Digital Only pledge levels, even if you add a physical item in the add-ons section.
Don't worry though, even if you don't qualify for the free mini, you can still buy one as an add-on.

Just to make sure there is no confusion, the incentive is for backing at a PHYSICAL PLEDGE LEVEL during the FIRST 48 HOURS. After that, you may purchase the mini as an add-on.


WHAT ELSE?

Please take a look at this upcoming DCC/MCC project we are super excited about! The Eye of God is the first adventure in out new Apocalyptic Adventure! line. Designed as a bridge adventure between DCC & MCC, intended for 4-6 PCs of Level 2. Written by Scott Moore and illustrated by Leandro Seidler.


Thanks everyone!

Project Update: Mega Dungeons and Carnivorous Cauldrons


Hello Dungeon Explorers!

Mega Dungeon Month is only a couple weeks away! BackerKit says it's The biggest names in Tabletop RPGs. More dungeon content than any sane person could need. I don't know anything about how much dungeon cibtebt breaks the line of sanity, but I do know I'm super excited to see what everyone will be doing in April.



As part of Mega Dungeon Month, Goodman Games has a new Castle Whiterock project coming out for DCC RPG and Fifth Edition (5e). They've invited a few friends to join them and we gladly accepted!


Our offering for Mega Dungeon Month is a Castle Whiterock Tie-In we're calling The Carnivorous Cauldron. Like Castle Whiterock, we're supporting both DCC RPG and Fifth Edition (5e). Additionally, we'll have maps and new dice to go with it, just like our previous projects.



The story is the same in both versions, but this isn't just a simple stat-swap. Each version is tailored to the system and audience it supports.

The DCC RPG version, designed by Julian Bernick and Chris Williams, is filled with classic B&W DCC RPG old school art by industry veteran Dan Smiith and includes hand painted maps by Brett Hess. This adventure is intended for 4-6 PCs of 4th level.

The Fifth Edition (5e) version, converted by Scott Moore, is loaded with beautiful color art and maps by Raven Evermoor. This adventure is for 4-6 PCs of 8th level.

No matter which one you pick, you and your players are in for a great experience.



In addition to the maps in the book, we also offer printed poster maps for each version! These high quality maps look equally great on your wall or your game table.



Sign up today to be notified at project launch and be one of the first backers to brave the depths with us.

Brought to you by...

Project Update: The Carnivorous Cauldron Awaits!


As Mega Dungeon Month creeps closer and closer, we figured it was a good time for an update on our next project: The Carnivorous Cauldron.

What is The Carnivorous Cauldron?
The Carnivorous Cauldron is an 8th-level 5E adventure and a 4th level DCC RPG adventure that can stand alone, or serve as a weird introduction to the Castle Whiterock mega-dungeon. Goodman Games generously reached out to those of us active in the third-party publishing world to ask whether we would be interested in producing materials to support their Castle Whiterock campaign.

The DCC and 5e versions may tell the same story, but they do it in their own way. This isn't just a stat-block swap. We've worked to capture the distinct flavor of both systems, not just in the writing, but the art, maps, and layout are all attuned to their system.


What is Castle Whiterock?
Castle Whiterock is "a classic castle-themed mega-dungeon. This huge boxed set holds books, poster maps, and more than 700 pages of adventure content. The challenges herein can fuel a campaign for years. The 5E boxed set takes 5E characters from 1st through 15th level, and the DCC RPG edition takes DCC RPG characters from 1st through 7th level."

What is Mega Dungeon Month?
"For the first time ever, the titans of RPG, Goodman Games, Kobold Press, Monte Cook Games, and Explore Dungeons, descend together into a single, epic collab-funding event. An entire month-long celebration of dungeons at their most dangerous, deadliest, and most dazzling. Expect towering tomes packed with peril, treasure hoards beyond imagining, and unforgettable encounters forged by the greatest minds in modern RPGs."

But what is The Carnivorous Cauldron—really?
The Carnivorous Cauldron is a weird, fun adventure set in a twisted subterranean garden vault filled with Three-eyed goblins, psychic flowers, plant people, un-dead botanists, and of course... a carnivorous cauldron.

The Carnivorous Cauldron can be dropped into any subterranean campaign, run as a one-shot, or used in conjunction with Castle Whiterock.
