Sounds good gentlemen. I'll be on earlier than 11:30 eastern but I'll probably take some time to do some Skull & Shackles stuff for my tabletop game.

Catch ya all later, looking forward to playing tonight!


Just a few meta-reminders, the following quests are still outstanding:

  • Oleg wants a Tatzelwyrm head to mount in the trading post as a trophy.
  • Bokken wants enough Fangberries to make a bunch of potions.
  • Tuskgutter
  • Kesten has asked that the party track down Falgrim Sneed - dead or alive.

And based on discussion last night, we will be playing on WEDNESDAY nights from this point forward.


Impressive ... First expedition from Oleg's was 14 days that stretched out over 3 gaming sessions. Last night was 11 days away from the trading post and no one came close to death!

Hooray for progress!

I think Chris might be bad luck....

On a side note, I'm not feeling really inspired to play Iron Kingdoms. Can't really think of what kind of character I want to play. Feels like "writer's block" almost...

Give it some time if you still feel the same way after a couple weeks we'll talk about what the next step is


Male Human Game Master 14 / Computer Tech 8 / Programmer 1

Its not that I don't want to play, because I do. I just cant think of an interesting character to play.

I really just need to get a hold of the whole book so I can read all the fluff.

The world is the same as the world for Hordes/Warmachine. I believe there are some pdfs of them floating around the internets and they have ALOT of fluff in them. I think there should be around 15+ books all together.

Damn straight I am!

On a side note, why?


If you haven't been there in a while, check out the BurritoMaker timeline spreadsheet. Zavier has added some notes to it. Great stuff.


Are we still going ahead with the Wednesday night game this week?


I believe so

I'm down for it just a reminder though I'll be on around 7:15-7:30 pacific time


Had a lot of fun last night guys. Absolutely loved everyone's reaction to the Rickety Bridge map! Plus there's something nice about being able to game until 4 a.m. and then not wake up until 10:15 in the morning. (I even managed to cook breakfast, do laundry and clean today before work.)

Podcast editing begins tonight!


Hey guys, sorry things have been so quiet around here lately. I think we've all been pretty busy except for game nights. Just think though, in a few weeks we'll pretty much be moving play over to here for about 90% of the time.

Zach ... on the occasion that we need to do a battle-oriented BurritoMaker encounter, you willing to give up an hour or so of Iron Kingdom nights?

I steadfastly refuse on the count that I'm a dick...

but in all serious MJ I'd be willing to give up whole weeks if that is what is necessary.

Also Chris if you are reading this we switched over to Wednesday night if you haven't figured it out already...also your an asshat


Edit to Zach's post,

Asshat has recently been replaced so here are a few alternatives you might like to consider for future use

Example 1: also your an asshate*

Example 2: also your an asshater**

and in extreme cases (or being foreign)

Example 3: also your a wanker

* asshate is the latest trend of ass-word usage

**asshater does not always mean one puts hats on asses

Both informative and giving me ways to insult Chris! I love it!

Sovereign Court

Okay, sorry that I have been completely absent from the boards. The ship I'm on is asshater/wanker about its interwebs.

Anyhow, Wed sound fine and are we still playing IK in the upcoming weeks?

We're still on kingmaker for now


Male Human Game Master 14 / Computer Tech 8 / Programmer 1

I'm going to be running late tonight. I had a few errands to run so I'm going to bed way late. MJ I sent you a PM. ;)


I'm open to all potential strategy suggestions! Let's have at it.

I've already got two ideas floating around in the back of my head.

Spoiler:
One of them is ... without finishing the session from last night, the four of you roll up new third level characters.


whoa, some characters might be able to live


Poof wrote:

Look who's paranoid. :) I wasn't saying anyone was dead.


lol, Garett still has a chance. I'm bleeding out in a corner staked to the ground with a bear trap. I think Garett is the only one who knows where I am.

The dice gods were surely against you last night. How bad off is Elrose at the moment? The last save was a roll for 14, right?


He's at -7 currently. His con is 11 and ya, 14 was my las roll to stabilize

Would someone kindly fill me in on what happened with this one?

Hmmmm, where to begin. Where to begin?

Splitting the party. Zombies. Climbing. Bear trap. Lots of bandits and lots of arrows. Big dude with a giant club. The cackling witch returns. Owlbear.

I'll let someone else fill in the details.


my characters are fluff characters so MJ kills them whenever, and Garett and sirnef are just side characters in Zaviers story. Nuff said

Sovereign Court

So who is still alive? Is Leroy, Orhan, and Mandy going to return to Oleg's to find that everyone else is dead?


Male Human Game Master 14 / Computer Tech 8 / Programmer 1

Leroy will return to Oleg's and no one will be there... or return... Except for maybe Zavier and Sirnef, and that's if they run...


Male Human Game Master 14 / Computer Tech 8 / Programmer 1

MJ warned this adventure would be hard so I have a few more characters lined up. MJ has made it quite apparent that he hates Garrett's Stealth skill so I cant see him surviving this...

With a potion of Blur from Zavier Garrett was sniping like a fiend. Then the Owlbear with sent came along and ruined it. One shot me into oblivion.

MJ also turned the bear traps against us! Took a 3rd of Elrose's health away... Of course Garrett should have been searching for traps...

Sovereign Court

What? How dare MJ use the mighty bear traps against us! Also I will be back for the next game barring any travel delays.


I mean it has been over a month since you guys had the leader of the evil explorers into your camp and explained to him about using bear traps to protect yourselves at night. Only fair they get to use to tactic too.


Male Human Game Master 14 / Computer Tech 8 / Programmer 1

Excuses... On a side note, Zack if Garrett survives this I need a bandoleer of blur potions and a way to mask my scent... And a spring loaded kaginawa.

Oh, I love Garrett's stealth ability. The mechanics behind it make me cringe though.

As Garrett was approaching the corner of the building I was having a "Oooo! Oooo! Wait for it ..." moment and then you waved Elrose forward.

I've got everything lined up for the very beginning of the session on Wednesday. We'll start with a few rolls for Sirneff and Zavier. Then jump to Leroy's return to the trading post that afternoon. What time of day would you guys say you started the "attack" on the Stag Lord's fort?


Male Human Game Master 14 / Computer Tech 8 / Programmer 1

We would have waited until night fall.

On a side note I have been building a automated character sheet for iron kingdoms in Excel using VBA out of boredom at work (lack of map tool macros need writing).

I have easily found over 100 different editing mistakes in that book so far from entering data into the sheet. Like the spell "Rime" is not on a single spell list. Lots of crap like that all over the book. Lots of spelling errors and alphabetic lists that are out of alphabetic order in the middle of them for some reason.

Privateer Press needs to fire their editor.

On top of that there are some rule contradictions. I like the book and the material, I hate the editors.


Male Human Game Master 14 / Computer Tech 8 / Programmer 1

They also purposely make all rulings and descriptions long winded and do no use the same terms to describe rules for equipment, gear, 'jacks, skills, etc... Its making it a pain in the ass for me to have to rewrite everything instead of copying and pasting into the sheet's db. Making this character sheet take longer then it would have if I had made one for PF or DnD.

Lantern Lodge

Male Human (I think) Student 3/Bum 1

Privateer Press always has a bunch of grammatical and spelling errors in they're books but it never really bothered me as long as I know what they are saying but yeah they really need new editors.

Also the reason why the aren't using the same terms is because most of the abilities and spells (and rules) are pretty much copied and pasted from the Warmachine rules and then modified from that to work as an RPG. I think it works well because I'm such a big fan of the game and understand it because I've been playing it for 5+ years. It's probably more annoying for you guys because your coming into this cold and Paizo is insanely good at streamlining everything.

I also shared another automated character sheet that I found on the internet, It's a pretty good one too (although I haven't gotten a chance to look at yours yet Brian).

Also as a prelude for the next encounter... DOOOOMMMMMM!!

Last thing, HEY WANKER IF YOU'RE BACK ALREADY GET BACK ON THE XBOX WE STILL HAVE TO FINISH BORDERLANDS.


Male Human Game Master 14 / Computer Tech 8 / Programmer 1

Its different just reading the book vs transposing all the info to another place. Its like 20 isolated people wrote this book. its horrible. Its would be ok if I was just reading and learning to play. But when I have to rewrite everything so it all matches the rule terms that they made up... there is a problem.

Lantern Lodge

Male Human (I think) Student 3/Bum 1

If you get confused just ask me I can probably sort through their inconsistencies really fast


Male Human Game Master 14 / Computer Tech 8 / Programmer 1

Haha Zack, that sheet you sent me is what I'm about done with. His is very ugly...


Hey all, hopefully we'll be wrapping this adventure up tonight! I'll see everyone online a little before Zach has normally been joining us ... 10'ish Eastern. Just got a text from Zach, it will probably be 7:15 (his time) tonight.

Maptool will be up and running by the time I get onto Skype so feel free to join in whenever you see the server. I'll be adding a few more owlbears to the map.

Oh wait, I shouldn't have said that!


I'm all set for Wednesday night ... would everyone be able to provide any new character information?

PS - I'm still a little shell shocked from the events in the Stag Lord's fort.


My guy is a tattooist and worked/works at a traveling circus

Hey everybody, I was wondering if it would be alright if Leroy sold some stuff in the party wagon to get some gear. Also, does anyone know if the swag on the Google Doc is up to date? And was any credit awarded by Oleg to the party while I was gone?
