More than just an adventure, it's a setting. Well it is, if you have the boxed set. I most definitely do. I also have Dungeon Crawl Classics #83.1 Tales of the Shudder Mountains and I'm excited that Dungeon Crawl Classics #83.2 Death Among the Pines is coming out at Gen-Con.
There's just something about Appalachian D&D that appeals to me. I want the setting, the Shudder Mountains, to be a part of more games I run. I've always had a healthy respect for mountain culture (though I can't stand modern redneck culture) and my family was a part of that just a few generations ago.
In anticipation of picking up DCC 83.2 I've decided to read of the Shudder Mountains material again. I like to listen to music while reading so I've decided to share my Shudder Mountains mix.
Awesome stuff! If I may...I also recommend Steve'n'Seagulls' take on Sabotage from the AV Club last year. Has a feel that's probably more cajun than mountain, but a lot of fun...!
ReplyDeleteI like that one too, but yeah it's not very hillbilly.
DeleteSomething about mountain culture is very magical indeed. Michael Curtis captured it really well in this setting.
