Some Ulfen themed AC's-
sabretooth tiger (tiger stats)
dire elk (megaloceros)
Grizzly bear or brown bear (bear)
Mastodon (elephant)
Wooly rhino (rhino)
I think the big cats and dinosaurs are typically considered the go to companions because of pounce and rake. High movement and full attacks from far away with bonus attacks if the opening was successful. That said, it's really more about what matches Kovar's personality and there is also no reason they need to be an animal from the north since you are a world traveler now.
Thanks for running again Luke. We managed to scrape by in the end. Whew :) To whoever runs next I'd like to throw some suggestions in the docket. Any of the ones by Dennis Baker that fit our tier or the City of Strangers 2 part thing. Those are really nice and I was planning on running them at some point but don't see it in the cards for quite a while. If anyone else feels like giving it a go I'd happily play any of them. At the same time I'm also happy to play whatever is on offer as long as I haven't already done so.

Furious Focus is a good one.
I'm happy to play any adventure the group is okay with. I'll even purchase an adventure if anyone has any requests, if someone could tell me how to do that and get it to Luke.

That does look funky, I shall have a think....
Alie, you should be able to gift pdf purchases at checkout if I remember rightly.
I have no idea what we should play next, as long as it's not one I've played before, I'm good.

Dennis Baker, in tier (if the search function works properly!)
Oh, I've played City of Strangers part one, so if we did that, I'd rather GM it. Oh, I have the PDF of that one too from GMing at a convention so wouldn't mean anyone buying it!

Oh- I hadn't realized his others were Tier 7-11. Both of those are quite good though. Sewer Dragons is 3-7 and God's Market is 1-5. City of Strangers is 1-7.
Maybe we want to shy away from God's Market because we still fall in between sub tiers 1-2 and 4-5. Playing up again doesn't seem like a good idea right now ;)
Alie Saechel |
Yu are probably right, ith. We just got out of that one by the skin of our teeth. Maybe we can take our rewards, gear up, and take on an appropraiate tier for the next one!
Wadi Ahk'kolon |
Yeah I am with Alie on this one. Considering the Remove Disease cost Wadi all of his gold (plus some prestige) he cannot afford to gear up at this time. Fortunately sorcerers don't need a lot of gear but still being able to improve his AC and also his saves would be wise.

Erg. I made a mistake early on with the remove diseases we were rolling by thinking that they were a 2nd level spell and thus CL3 so roll a 1d20+3. That mistake caried through to the end of the process.
As Luke pointed out, RD is a 3rd level spell. That means CL 5 so 1d20+5 on each check.
For most of us that results in no change.
For Wadi, he passed on the third attempt when you factor in that missing +2. Did not need the following three attempts.
For Fog, he passed on the first attempt. Did not need the second attempt.
Sorry about that guys :(

Alright, sorry about the delay, guys; I have not had computer access for four days :-/
I can certainly run Sewer Dragons, assuming everyone is happy with that module; I agree that continued playing-up is probably not a good idea.
That said, who here has played 'Among the Gods'?
(I have already played and/or GM'ed literally everything (apart from Adventure Paths!) that is currently PFS-legal.)
Luke_Parry |
Alright, apologies for the delay, but between helping to prepare / run a Con over Easter, prep another for the end of the month, *and* pulling 14 hour shifts at work to allow me the time off to run games at both, I have been rather... distracted... lately.
All of your certs have been sent out to your designated e-mail addresses; let me know if there are any problems.
I will start the intro for the next scenario later today :-)
Alie Saechel |
Okay, I have almost 5k in gold currently. Can I buy something like a +2 Charisma boosting item, or do I have to wait until one is unlocked on a completed chronicle sheet I have received?
Alie Saechel |
I'm thinking of spending 2 PP for a wand of magic missle, just so I'll constantly have something to do in emergencies, unlike last time.
Also, on one of our early sheets, there's a tasty Ring of Proection +1 that I'm considering purchasing.
Alie Saechel |
Is everything ok, Luke? Just wondering when we plan on getting things started....
Also, I am going to make the purchases described above.
2 PP for a Wand of Magic Missles, and 2000 gp for the Ring of Protection +1. I'll also spent another 2 PP and pick up a wand of Cure Light Wounds.

Alie- just to make sure you knew:
Since you have 14 Fame (by your profile page), Alie can buy anything she wants as long as it costs 3,000 gp or less. If it were over 3,000 gp and you had the money you would need to have it on a chronicle sheet to get special access and bypass the Fame purchase limit.
I think all of us fall in this range at the moment.
Fame:
9: 1,500
13: 3,000
18: 5,250

Thanks ith, that's pretty much what Luke told me the other day I think when I wanted to try and buy a +2 Cha item. So with that being out of my range, I decided to grab the Ring we found in one of our early adventures. I think that's legal, but if it isn't, let me know!!
ithuriel |
It's legal. What I'm saying is you didn't need the chronicle sheet to buy it. You could just say I want a ring of protection +1 because it is under 3,000 gp. In this case the only purpose it being on a chronicle sheet serves is a story element- like you approach the Society about X item you found on so and so mission and buy it directly from the vault. Now you have the ring of So-and-so the Terrible who you defeated at the Temple of No Good for bragging rights and backstory instead of Generic Ring +1 purchased from Ye Olde Magic Shoppe in Absalom.

Id say we give Luke another few days, and if he doesnt post then we go with City of Strangers. This group has great momentum and I don't want to lose it.

Exactly! I need a few days to re-read CoS and get the first maps together anyway, so if we give it 'till Friday?

Hi guys,
It's time for Luke to eat some humble pie...
Initially, I was MIA due to the Con I was organising, then, we ended up being a man down at work, and I had to do the work of two people... as a result, my priorities shifted, and certain things (like this thread) fell by the wayside, when they really should not have.
I really cannot stress how sorry I am that I let this happen :-/
Fortunately, we now have a locum helping us, so things have stabilised at work.
Provided that you are still willing to deal with me, I would be happy to start running 'Among the Gods' ASAP.
