Black Pudding Heavy Helping Vol. One

ADD TO WISHLIST >
Selected Option:

It glorps! It shlorps! It absolutely bevoorps! It is the first official Black Pudding zine collection, available in glorious print!

This collection features everything from the first four issues of Black Pudding, a zine of OSR RPG gaming goodies. Monsters, spells, character classes, character sheets, adventures, and more!

The materials from each issue are presented here in categories. Flip to the classes section and roll up a Black Knight or a Summoner. Scoot over to the monsters and stock your dungeon with a horde horror or a gravity guard. Drop the Glittering Tome of the Silver Sage into your adventure and make the wizard drool with anticipation. Send the PCs to the Bleeding Ox to hire Jilliantha Stormshot or Father Mug to join them on the quest.

You can use this tome to enhance your old school dice rolling adventure sessions but remember... do not EVER strike the tome! If you must kill the pudding, kill it with fire.

Size: 8.5" x 11", 120 pgs.

aside from the THACO, how adaptable is this to things like DCC?

I'm interested in it for OSE for sure, but double duty would be nice.

Hey! Most stuff in Black Pudding is made with B/X in mind (like Labyrinth Lord). If it isn't B/X specific, then it is something I cooked up like issue 4's OSR Playbook, which is just a hack of 0e. You can swipe stuff for DCC but you just have to be aware of the differences in those systems. I love running DCC, but I never got into making content for it because B/X tends to be more terse and thus will fit in smaller spaces.

The will be a new Heavy Helping this year but I don't know when at this point.

A couple of quick questions, James!

1. On page 100, why is there no entry for the Cleric class (on the Class table itself)?
2. What are "Getaways" as referred to on the Thief Special Ability table page 100? They aren't mentioned on the page of the Thief class (page 106).

The author touched base with me. Answers to the questions are as follows:

1. The Cleric class was not included in the original zines and only appears in Heavy Helping, hence its omission from the Class table.
2. "Getaways" are things like deft retreats in combat.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
