Finally saw a physical copy of Dungeon Crawl Classics RPG....

First thought:
That cover is uuugllly!


Second thought:
Oh, thank goodness, that's a limited edition cover. Here's the normal cover -



Third thought:
I could totally build that with Lost Halls of the Dwarven Kings....

A nice little obstacle for level 3 heroes or so - broken stairway, how to get across the cavern to the doors below and across the chasm?

Then again, Jon really likes BECMI, so maybe that was more along the lines of what he was hoping for.
