    I ran this a while back for my friends. Through random occupations, they had a veritable petting zoo following them around. The chicken was used (and abused) as a trap detector very early on. The donkey refused to go any further after seeing the entry door laser beams in action. The sow was given some left-over chainmail and nearly drowned when the pool collapsed. Their "war-pig" ended up becoming a valued party member. Great times. Great vid!

    Love that you are covering DCC again, Bob! It´s so much fun
    Crazy spells like Ventroliquism that might summon demons?
    Fighters being the most creative class and describing every attack as a cinematic action piece?
    Level 1 adventures where you travel to Transdimensional Zoos or are part of a stage play while fighting hordes of cutthroats?
    So much good stuff!

      Ventriloquism can't summon monsters, but I've actually had some mileage out of it in the games I've played as a player.
      Scared off a massive combat because I rolled very well and produced the sound of hundreds of the monsters we had summoned sprinting through the woods.

    Judging tip. Encourage your players to burn Luck often and reward luck frequently. Use luck to make your players feel cool for role playing and their clever ideas. It’s an amazing incentive that feels much more integrated in the game vs 5e’s inspiration system.

    Great video Bob. Dungeon Crawl Classics has revitalized my passion for running games. It’s just fun. The tables can be a little work to maneuver. The dice chain is so natural and gives an organic way to give a buff or debuff. The grittier game play makes it easier to bring the weird, fantastical, horror you hope for. Here for all your DCC content

    Love DCC and love Robert THE World Builder. DCC is fantastic stuff. And some of the "hidden" rules, like burning luck which isn't in the Quickstart or I missed it, are even better.

    For example, DCC funnels are crazy fun and really can be imported to D&D (to create the backstory of the players, to do a session in a flashback, or else)

    1. Thanks for the walk-through.
    2. There were a bunch of these QuickStarts released for FreeRPGDay. A bunch of systems. Many of which had a flaw... So DCC says make quick disposable characters as part of the quickstart. But every other 5e system I saw giving a quickstart away did NOT include Pre-Gen characters. That makes NO SENSE! If they had pregen characters like level 1 or 3 with their new subclasses they always include then people could run the quick start right then, and maybe buy a book or download more!

    • @BobWorldBuilder
      @BobWorldBuilder  4 หลายเดือนก่อน +3

      Thanks for watching! And yeah, pregens are always a trade-off. Depending on the game, some people play just for the experience of building an original character. Even D&D's Starter Sets have gone back and forth about including pregens. Ultimately I agree that any game is more playable with them than without them!

My favorite memory of running The Portal Under the Stars was the laughter the group shared when seeing their level 0 characters dying left and right. Also, one of my players made art of our first funnel adventure. In closing, players get attached to their level 0 characters that survive. It is a legendary story of how the cheese maker survived and is now an adventurer. Well done Bob!

    The front door can be opened if a character have a occupation that can meet the stars, like tarot reader and such. The area with the statues after the door gona attack when the judge want, he can show how luck works here and attack the lowest luck of the group. I didnt use the checks find the scorch in area 3, they are on the floor, look at it and you find it. What is gona come from there is other thing. Much of this checks can be avoided if the players look, search, move, describe what they are doing and mach the realization requirement. Besides that, great video, keep coming Buildert.

    The sigh when Bob couldn’t find a good spot to plant his foot on the bench was hands down the funniest thing I’ve seen all day!

    I do love some Dungeon Crawl Classics videos. 💪

    I have both run and played portal under the stars. When playing, the first death was a dwarf at the door messing with the jewels. Then one my characters (a wainwright) and another players character (a lumberjack) fashion wood to the pushcart we had to create shields. It saved us from the statues and the fire shooting statue. It became the holy symbol for my character that lived and this the War Wagon religion began. Tips for running: I would say you can disregard some of the checks it asks for. For instance, just tell the players they see the scotch marks and notice the silver miniatures. But I play by the philosophy of, "Stop hiding everything behind die rolls."

    Been running DCC games on occasion for a couple of years now. By far the most fun RPG I've found in decades. Nothing quite like killing 2 characters from the same player in less than 5 minutes by the same NPC due to bad choices.

    I ran the Portal Under the Stars once before and it was very chaotic even from the beginning: one of my players killed the dying peasant before he finished his speech, that same player believed he was magical so he tried resurrecting which unfortunately didn't work the first time but on the second try he had done so bad he thought he was alive again and decided to bring him to the portal...
    My players died pretty much at every trap because I was not very used to the OSR play style
    The chaotic player also had access to some cleric magic because a very peculiar patron (Chad) answered his prayer but also punished him by transforming him into a door when he did very bad
    It's been a while but it was very fun and I'd love to run it again

      I also remember that Sssissurag was scared off because they managed to make him non-chaotic

      Since this was a one-shot in the middle of another campaign, I used the ending to make them see some parts of the world to tease them where they could be next
      (I also ported their characters into my campaign even though they didn't meet them, Chad became a real patron in my world)

    Mr. World Builbert, thank you for this video! I got a bunch of DCC stuff through a humblebundle a few months ago, and really wanted to play but I just couldn't get myself to sit down and read anything. This lit a fire under me to finally start playing. Cheers!

    You better start making more DCC vids Mr Bobert! Love me some DCC. Would like more reviews of DCC modules and maybe even how you prep for DCC and stuff like that or hear me out how to convert 5e monsters to DCC so I can finally convert my shitty 5e adventures to a better system.

    I played the creation funnel as a oneshot once in the past. It was similar enough to know what I was doing, but different enough to be a really unique experience. I highly suggest.

    In my run of this as a player, we noticed that several of our PCs had chickens as their random item. In the statue room we sacrificed our chickens to the statue - then ate roasted chicken and has a party bonding moment.
    After that I knew DCc was absolutely the game for me lol

    Just recently ran this for friends who had given up on D&D because people got tired of he amount of time doing nothing. In two hours we generated characters and played the adventure. It was a very different experience to what they had been used to.

    Man, I totally forgot that the default quickstart wants the characters to stand still for two hours doing nothing right off the bat. What a weird choice! I like your suggested fix of having the gems slide around into position, though - makes sense for an ornate lock.

    Nice! Welp, the stars have aligned and the gods have sort of shrugged and said 'yeah, like, _i guess_ or whatever'; time to start a new gaming group.
    Also dang it but that 'how to start a game' section is really good; I'm legit envious of how well-distilled those ideas are. 40 seconds and it's not only covered the essentials but also fit in the standard (yet vital) safety disclaimers about meeting new people through niche interests. 🤘That's impressive writing🤘
