YEEEEEEEEEEEEEE HAW!

I bet that cake is just alternating layers of syrup soaked sponge cake and chocolate mousse inside, but it's still pretty impressive looking. The cakes at the place I work aren't quite as spectacular, but I should take a picture of some of them sometime.

We bought some very nice bread from that cake shop. Had some with a nice stinky cheese for lunch. I was a bit embarrassed on the bus cause I didn't quite realize how stinky that cheese was when I threw it in my bag.

End of an era.

OK, game mechanics question: If I want to cast Silent Image to mess with their line-of-sight, as suggested by our primary mage, would that work? Could I make a "screen" of vines to hamper vision, considering that a suddenly-appearing cliff would probably not be very believable? Or would believability affect the Will saves that much?

It would have to depend on the circumstances. The issue is whether they "interact" (undefined in the rules) with it and then they get a save.

Obscuring Mist might be even better placed above the web. No disbelief there. If it would sink down onto us though, that option is out.

My mistake. Obscuring mist centers on the caster.

How about a wall across the ravine on the north side to the tree in P2 (3 cubes) and use the other eight to create a "ceiling" over the main part of the party?

Creating a wall or vines that they would have seen previously, that's a problem. But if you are creating magical effects, I can play off of that with my illusions. Or that's my thinking, anyway.

If you do something insubstantial but still vision blocking maybe it will mess with their ability to disbelieve.

Say- liquid inky blackness, smoky tendrils, a thick haze, a massive cloud of flies, something along those lines. If you shot an arrow and it went through something like that, it would be what you expected to begin with.

Just to avoid cluttering the game thread more:

Sorry, Ithuriel -- I don't remember the area of many spells, almost always have to look them up. Sounds like you've found the perfect application/location for your Web.

np.

One potential issue with your silent image. You can't actually use it to replicate a darkness spell since that is its own spell (and 2nd level rather than 1st). It isn't actually blocking the light, it only appears to be. So once they step into it and realize something is up they will get to roll a save. But they have to come to us to find out.

I know I made remarks about Gil leading Basher, but it seems in the game thread that LB has taken charge of our single-minded friend. Unless I hear otherwise, I'm assuming that LB will be giving the charger his orders.

Cool?

I think its fine for anyone to run him or give him orders. LB just didn't want him charging off recklessly, particularly if these guys turned out to be not attacking us ... now that that danger has passed ...

Something I learned from PFS the other night... Inspire Courage has been switched from a morale to a competence bonus on the Attack and Damage. (Fear and Charm bonus remains morale). That makes Inspire Courage stackable with cleric morale effects now.

NOOOO!

Hi ho!
Kids sick; 102 fever on one; might be swine flu; don't know yet; know in a little while.
I might not be around much for the next few; sorry fellers.
Feel free to npc Rodergo; don't know what's up just now.
I'll letcha know.

I'll be back around in a day or two; let me get my crap together.

Away for the weekend. Probably back Sunday night.

Man, Basher is racking up the body count. I think he's got a ring of bodies around him.

I was hoping that guy would come in handy at some point, but... hell yeah! Flatten 'em Basher!

We'd better get him under control, otherwise, once he finishes the enemy at R10, he may decide to wade into the field of tentacles to get the one at Q14. Remember, he is in a rage and none too bright.

OK, where is this dice roller that everyone seems to be using? Is it here on the boards? I'm seeing it on other threads, too...

To do dice, you go {dice} 1d20 {/dice}
except with the same bracket things you do spoiler and ooc with in lieu of those squiggly ones I used for the example. Or 1d4, 1d6, 1d100; you can even add your bonuses like 1d20+5 and it'll do that for you.
1d13 ⇒ 12

apparently you can make up weird dice as well. 1d452 ⇒ 145

I had a d21 once. But I down down in awe at your d452.

It's the damage die for the sword at the end of Wolfhound.

1d20 + 7 + 1 - 2 ⇒ (12) + 7 + 1 - 2 = 18

Good to know. So it handles positive and negative bonuses just fine. Also if you forgot one mod you can go back in and edit it into the dice string. It won't change your roll.

You have to have a space between each number and each + or - though. I think that must have been why it didn't work properly for Mothman before.

Cool - No more crying about IC being down.

Some trials:

1d20 + 5d6 ⇒ (3) + (5, 6, 2, 4, 5) = 25

1d20 + 5 ⇒ (2) + 5 = 7 Description outside brackets, no spaces

1d20 + 5 ⇒ (9) + 5 = 14

1d20 + 3 ⇒ (13) + 3 = 16 Multiple rolls, no spaces

1d20 + 5d6 ⇒ (9) + (4, 5, 5, 2, 2) = 27

1d20 + 5 ⇒ (8) + 5 = 13 Description outside brackets, spaces

1d20 + 5 ⇒ (3) + 5 = 8

1d20 + 3 ⇒ (17) + 3 = 20 Multiple rolls, spaces

Cool - No more crying about IC being down.

Some trials:

1d20+5 Description inside brackets, no spaces

1d20+5 Description outside brackets, no spaces

1d20+5;1d20+3 Multiple rolls, no spaces

1d20 + 5 Description inside brackets, spaces

1d20 + 5 Description outside brackets, spaces

1d20 + 5 ; 1d20 + 3 Multiple rolls, spaces

OK, maybe this is what's necessary for the multiple rolls:

1d20 + 3 ⇒ (17) + 3 = 20

1d20 + 5 ⇒ (9) + 5 = 14

EDIT: Yup. Neglected to put a space on either side of the semi-colon in my original test. This is similar enough and yet different enough from FantasyGrounds that I will probably get it wrong - a lot.

Justa letcha know;
I can't post at work any more. Period.
Too many people on facebook wot wot; they're coming down on internet usage.

A shame, Heathy. Guess we'll have to pace ourselves.

I actually feel guilty posting from work.

Well, the only thing I could think is this:
Mothman is in Australia, and he starts posting about the time I come back from work anyway's, so maybe if initiative was modified to where LB and I had the same place in the initiative order right next to eachother by default, at least you wouldn't be waiting all day for one or the other of us to post.
Then if you needed a skill roll or a save for me for something, somebody just phantom roll it so the game's not held up waiting for Rodergo to save from the gorgon's breath weapon or whatever.
That might help out some.

My game; we only seem to go about a round a day of combat anymore anyway, and I just do mob party initiative order, so I don't think it's much of a problem.

I'm in much the same boat. I only post from work when 1) I have access to an external hot spot, 2) my personal laptop is at hand, and 3) I'm "at lunch" or otherwise on a break.

Seems that the subject matter of a number of Paizo forums (especially game threads) contains a number of words that trigger our Internet traffic filters. ;-) So I was warned that if they start acting on such information, it would not be good for me to have my browsing showing up on the "connections of interest" list very often.

That's why my posting is somewhat sporadic. Those three factors don't come into alignment every day. Or potentially every week.

I wouldn't worry about it. So long as you are around a bit (and you are there for my mornings sometimes) it's fine.

GG: ainvarg (at) yahoo (dot) com, if you are still willing to share that map. Thanks!

Sorry I've been a bit quiet - a few things to do in RL, and a RL game to prepare for too. Should be back on in a day or so.

Just got my copy of the Bestiary.

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Dotted!

Ohhhh! You can see the thread while posting now! That is great! I love it!

(lol)
on my honeymoon to Costa Rica, we were on this bridge, over a tree, which was covered, nay, infested with iguanas.
Crazy lizards.

Hey, Vattnisse, I'm not trying to be a PITA about Wings-of-Silver's flying attacks. (Apparently, it comes naturally.)

Sorry if I pissed you off.

No worries. I'm just annoye at myself; clearly I am not familiar with the flight rules (as evidenced by me screwing up WoS's flying movement two turns in a row here). I need to sit down and look at the rules one day soon.
