Less tactical, but better flow. Your call, GM!
Sorry guys - Bank holiday and mum's just had a hip operation so had my last days consumed with everything but these forums.
Would you guys all prefer I did mass combat as in rolled for everything and had you all roll for everything, then did an end of round summary because I agree we've been stuck here for a while and I thank you for your patience!
Cortez, I would prefer if you mass rolled things like initiative, and if we can all submit our actions each round out of order and you sort.
Then why bother rolling initiative? Just have everyone free for all :P
We've been stuck here for a while because we all have a life outside of the forum. Not because we aren't, or need to be submitting out of order. Life gets in the way sometimes, but if everything goes as planned, and we are all checking in and posting everyday, there wouldn't be a problem with game flow. If it is game flow we are concerned about, then why not use a free action? I don't see anything wrong with our characters talking non-stop during combat. As long was it is not a Shakespearean soliloquy, its worth using just to keep the momentum going.
To make everyone posting at once work, to me, means we will have to be vague about who we attack and possibly how. I don't want to post, "Keil attacks the nearest evil creature" and leave it at that. Putting it all in the GM's corner to fluff it out for the story line is a lot of extra work for the GM - work we should be doing. Sorry guys, there is a reason for having initiative order and I'd like to stick with it.
I too prefer mass rolling initiative for the creatures, but lets keep our initiatives separate please. Let the GM roll them all if he wants, it doesn't matter to me. And I don't mind jumping the cue, but lets have a better reason than being impatient. If you know you aren't able to check in for a couple days, let us know and include a few suggestions for what your character might want to do. It works in other PBPs, doesn't it?
New post tomorrow guys and I'll have updated info on combat also. Sorry for the delay. It's a priority of mine to speed this up and get you out of the boring sewer! :)
To move things on, for those of you who haven't yet done so (don't worry about initiative order), post up your actions and I'll get things moving once more!
That's okay mate. I'm sorry it's taking me so long at the minute.
Had to have my cat put to sleep today and have had the whole week off of work.
Hardest thing in my life I've ever had to do and I don't want to go through it ever again.
Hello everyone,
I just wanted to update you all.
Technically thius campaign isn't dead but I've had severe issues with my internet at home and currently have extremely limited internet access on my phone with my phone contract supplier. As such, I've been unable to reference the AP and am currently typing from work.
For those who are still interested in playing, I'll keep you updated.
Really sorry but thanks for your understanding!
The same as Keil, it happens from time to time man no worries Im not going anywhere anytime soon
