DCC #30: Vault of the Dragon Kings -- Your Experiences

[Reynard]

Today I ordered DCC #30 Vault of the Dragon Kings from Troll and Toad to put my PCs through using Pathfinder. I was curious if anyone had experience with the module and could share some advice or observations.

As a general aside, does anyone have experience using DCCs with pathfinder? Are there things to look out for? For the vast majority of my 25+ GMing years I have home brewed adventures, but real life and limited time have gotten me using more and more pre-generated material these days. In the current campaign alone, I have used bits and pieces of Kingmaker, one of the mini-adventures from Demons and Devils (and the PCs now own a wizard's tower!) and cribbed encounters and side-quests from here and there. DCC 30 will be the first full on module running, though.

I also have DCC 25 Dread Crypt of Srihoz, and it is possible they will do that instead. Basically I am throwing a couple hooks at them and letting the PCs decide which way to go (I am telling the players that we're doing a module, though, and giving them general ideas about the choices, just so they can make an informed decision).

Thanks a bunch.

I played a whole bunch of DCCs with 3.0 and 3.5, but not with Pathfinder. I think the only issues that you'll run into is to just use the monsters they use from the MM and use their Bestiary versions. If they are using their unique monsters, then just write in the CMB and CMD and you're pretty much good to go.

My overall experience with DCCs is that they are a lot of fun. Bloody Jack's Gold was the most frustrating but very satisfying module that I played.

Good luck with your campaign!
