For the record: I do not agree that strong swing applies to two-handed fighting, but I think it is a minor thing and not worth further discussion. In other words: your choice and I really won't take it against you if you wield the falcata two-handed and apply the +2 damage from strong swing.
Don't worry about it then: I will fight one handed for the rest of the scenario. Theodric is not meant for damage. He only uses the baseball bat style when shield bash appears useless, but if your interpretation happens to be the official way to do things, he will never do this as he's not interested to lose strong swing (the player does not wish to figure out the total damage math every round! LOL). Also, you convinced me at "you lose AC bonus from buckler", that's something else I overlooked, and a drawback that will be increasingly bad when I further enchant the buckler to +5 ultimately...
I went there once when I was 19. I spent a summer euro-railing based out of Mons/Brussels and went to Amsterdam. was a lot of fun. I like history so I had fun.
Most younger people don't come to Amsterdam for the history ;-).
I am on a citytrip with my wife until Monday May 7. We will move on then.
Acrobatics: How does Acrobatics work when you use it to avoid attacks of opportunity? When do you make checks? How many do you make?
Acrobatics allows you to make checks to move through the threatened area of foes without provoking attacks of opportunity. You must make a check the moment you attempt to leave a square threatened by an enemy, but only once per foe. The DC (which is based of the Combat Maneuver Defense of each foe), increases by +2 for each foe after the first in one round. The DC also increases by +5 if you attempt to move through a foe. In the case of moving out of the threatened square of two foes at the same time, the moving character decides which check to make first.
For example, a rogue is flanked by a meek goblin and a terrifying antipaladin. The rogue move away from both of them, provoking an attack of opportunity from both, but uses Acrobatics to attempt to negate them. She must move at half speed while threatened by these foes and can choose which to check against first. If she fails a check, she provokes an attack of opportunity from that foe. If she makes it, she does not provoke from moving through that foe's threatened space this turn.
So normally you would get a 2nd acrobatics check to avoid her. However you were not aware of her, which led me to believe you would not get that 2nd check. Now I am not that certain anymore... I still believe that you either get a penalty or not get a roll at all for her being invisible. What is your opinion?
I had not thought about uncanny dodge, but indeed: they should get the acrobatics roll even if unaware.
Yes on the first part, because it is a conscious decision to move while using acrobatics.
The second part is not needed since we were talking about making acrobatics checks as part of movement ;-).

Krunch, what are these for?
Thanks
seeing that the enemies are all at full hit points.
I (the GM) am not at all eager to kill you, but the NPCs are trying. An alternative action was a negative channel, but I decided that he probably would not do that with only one enemy in the room who is already badly wounded. You had very bad luck that I rolled a 20 (and good luck on the damage roll). The bomb was standard tactics for her.
It is a tough combat and the wall of stone did not help you. I also agree with Inkita that you are not beaten yet. It is the party's call to retreat or not.
Heads up all... I am going to Gamex this weekend... we leave early in the morning and not sure when/if I'll be able to check in before Monday night... If I can post, it will be limited in time with brief posts... Please feel free to bot me if I'm holding things up... thanks...

Theodric (and the rest)
1) I don't like to retroactively adjust rolls.
2) As for calling him out being Ophyro:
He was very bad at hiding his surprise at you mentioning his name: you did nonlethal damage!
Thank you!
I did not like to 'just' give in to your argument. On the other hand I also did not want my emotions to cloud my judgment and harshly forbid it, there is merit in what you said. Rather than discussing this back and forth with myself I had this spark of inspiration. I am glad you liked it and posted that I made the right call.
I will be on a camping trip this weekend, so probably won't post. Thanks for your patience.
With approx 40 dads and 100+ children?
my character that I was going to assign this credit to is still 6th lvl.. was hoping to be 7th by now... can I apply the credit to another character instead?
If so: how about:
player: JAF0
character: K'Kei Hikaru
pfs #: 52335-11
faction: GL
The events in this scenario lead up to 5-99: The Paths We Choose
Let me know if I need to adjust anything, my apologies that some are really skewed, my printer and scanner did not want to cooperate.
@JAF0: I have made the chronicle for the lvl 6, to be applied when he reaches lvl 7 because:
The following rules apply when playing pregenerated characters.
You must choose to which of your characters the credit will be applied at the beginning of the adventure. Credit from a 1st-level pregenerated character can be applied only to a 1st-level character. Credit for playing higherlevel pregenerated characters must be applied to a Roleplaying Guild character of a lower level than the pregenerated character or to a newly created character.Applying Credit: You may apply credit for an adventure once your Roleplaying Guild character reaches the level of the pregenerated character used to play through it. For example, if you played a 7th-level pregenerated character, you would apply the credit once your character reaches 7th level.
@Krunch: you did not get the exchange boon because you did not find enough of the little print that made the trade deal unfavorable to the Exchange.
Thank you for playing, the end combat is tough and it seemed bleak for a moment, but you managed to defeat the baddies at the end
If you want to check boxes on your faction cards: go ahead, if I need to check CR's or other stuff in the scenario I am happy to do so.
I didn't realize I could hold it.. that's fine...
Thanks Feral, I am trying to cut down (again) on my PBP's at the moment, to many balls in the air. But I'll keep that in mind ;-)
Again, thank you all. Closing down the thread!
