The Goblin Cave

Several adventurers wake up in a cave. There are goblins. Stuff happens.

No worries, and will do! Let's get this started! Slow is fine by me, it's hard for me to post often too. :)

I love you guys!

In case anyone wants to move over and set up early (we're getting close to switching): Here's the linkto the new Campaign.

So, to crunch or not to crunch? It seems nice to be able to isolate the non-combat stuff within a spoiler, which leaves more room for the story as you scroll through old posts.

I use crunch from when I want to say something like:
"Angry now, Lucas draws his sword, sidesteps the minotaur's reach, then steps in to flank with Arianna."
Attack 1d20 + 3000 ⇒ (14) + 3000 = 3014 for 1d100 + 4500 ⇒ (86) + 4500 = 4586
AS OPPOSED TO:
"Lucas charges the minotaur."
It depends on my mood.

Ahhhh. I see! I kinda like that. I have been tending to do blue textfor that stuff in between what I say, but I think that could be confusing. Does the GM use that too?
BTW, I miss tangible gaming with y'all! We should have a special one-shot game when we come for Christmas!
DONE!
I'll run We Be Goblins!
Y'all will get to be Goblins!
It's perfect because you dont have to have anything, the characters are premade.
Oh! AND YOU'RE GOBLINS!!!!
Male Celestial Game Master
I've been wanting to do that for a while!
GOBLINS YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I miss it too. I miss using my shiny dice.
No real thoughts on the crunch thing. Either way is fine for me!
Dungeon Master
If I'm the only one who doesn't want to CRUNCH, then I will figure it out.

I don't care either way. It just seems like more typing to me.
Male Human Fighter (Brawler) 3
I just got in the habit of it. I don't care either way.
Male Celestial Game Master
Blarg. Okay, let's just keep things the way they've been on here, then. Also, would anyone consider moving to not using the battle board in the next leg of the campaign?
Male Human Fighter (Brawler) 3
I don't mind. However, from experience, it can be frustrating on the GM. You need to be overly specific about number of enemies, their position, terrain, etc.
It works though, but deference is usually given to the player when there is a question.
This is just how I've done it and seen it done.
Female Human Druid/1 Bard/1
Considering I have no experience on the boards besides this, I don't mind either way again. DSP has the most experience here.
Dungeon Master
If a detail was forgotten or not obvious in the description, combat could get tedious. But I bet we could make it work.
I prefer a gameboard. I'm quite visual and it seems much more confusing to me to try and play without one.
Male Celestial Game Master
Good news! I figured out a way to access the gameboard on my phone, so I think we can go ahead and keep using it for now. It's not a perfect solution, but it'll work.

So, you may have noticed my casting is a bit different this combat. I wasn't happy with how things were sounding before, so I decided since I have a ton of languages, I should probably be casting in at least one of them. I chose celestial as the main language for my spells.
Rick and I have decided to also pretend that's how I've been casting the whole game. Sorry for the change, but it's my first time playing just a spell caster! Sorry this is so long, but thought I should probably explain the abrupt change!!
Male Human Fighter (Brawler) 3
I like to roll with the punches. No worries here. I do like the change though :P
Dungeon Master
Yeah, it's pretty cool. Good on ya. (Much better than using Ohj Nohj Rhonbah Kuun for every spell, which is what I've done.)
haha, I put the text of my spell in google translate, then clicked through languages till I found one I liked the "sound" of. Added a few syllables to make it to my liking and BAM celestial! ;)
Well, I use google translate A LOT at work, so it's usually up on my browser anyway.

Thank you for the Jurassic Park reference Isaac. Just so you know the movie is 19 years old...
That is, the movie is its own adult in America.
It is older than both your brothers.
9 Olympic games have been held since this movie came out.
etc.

sorry for the delay. We were on vacation and then Rick got sick. Hopefully he'll be able to update today!
