No surprise that Paizo is still holding the #1 spot. WotC, FFG & Green Ronin are to be expected on the list, as well.
But breaking into the fifth position is none other than Goodman Games with the Dungeon Crawl Classics RPG!
With the game already in its second printing and new modules being released every month, DCC is making its presence felt in the RPG world. I'm rather pleased to see an unabashedly old school game, doing so well!
The image on the left, is for the soon to be released alternate cover printing. Goodman is currently taking pre-orders for this one!
As you can see, Hugh of the Red and White Striped 70's pants, has met his end!
And speaking of DCC, if you haven't checked out CRAWL!, you're missing an awesome zine!
That is extremely cool news!
ReplyDeleteThanks James for the shout-out/plug/praise! I'm glad you've been enjoying the zine! I enjoy making them.
ReplyDeleteThat is indeed cool news! And I really dig that cover. I may like it more than the original. Dak, any chance of doing Crawl in PDF format?
ReplyDeleteI just bought that fawkin' DCC rule book and I gotta say it far exceeded all my excpectations. Great book, cool rules.
ReplyDeleteI haint never heard of them games in the 3 and 4 spots; DCC's gonna surpass those chumps soon I hope.
Dragon Age RPG is pretty solid actually. It's much better than 4e and Pathfinder (i.e. 3e).
ReplyDeleteGreat news indeed, very nice to see DCC getting some much deserved love.
ReplyDeleteI'll also back Dak in saying Dragon Age is solid game, with a simple elegant mechanic. One of the best "new" games to come out in recent years I'd say. And yeah, much better than 4e and Pathfinder.
