Sorry for the slower going folks. It's been crazy at work. We'll pick up next week!
I think we are moving along just fine, the story is the best part and getting a feel for who everyone is so far has been great.

why do I think I can picture nosh saying We can stay up late, swapping manly stories, and in the morning I'm making waffles
Lol
I am really enjoying the start of this game! Just an FYI this weekend I will be going back home for a weekend of RPG's with my old table group. Its a last fling before I move away from the local area in a few weeks, so I probably won't be posting on the boards much if at all from Friday afternoon until Monday morning when I am back on campus. We will probably stay up late swapping manly stories, though I doubt I will get any waffles. :(
No worries, Bryce. And thanks for the head's up!
Are you guys wanting to do much more rp'ing before setting out in the morning? Or are you good to go?
I'm good when everyone else is :)
Same. :)
Yep, read to move on.
ready for sleep and the next days adventure!
Same here, once I get my only weapon back. :)
Sorry for the sudden absence, as you may know my wife and kids live in Nebraska now and I am in Louisville, KY finishing my degree. Yesterday they admitted my wife to the hospital so I drove all night to be here for her and the kids. She is home now and doing well, I will try to catch up on the thread tomorrow after I have gotten caught up on my sleep.
Take you time - hope all's well.
Take all the time you need. Hope your wife is doing well and has a speedy recovery.
No need for the apologies, Bryce. Take your time. We'll keep moving forward a bit, but we won't give your place away!
Be well.
family first, hope all is well soon.
I am driving back to Louisville over the next two days. I will try to check in from my hotel tonight and then again when I get home Monday evening/night.
I have some bad news everyone: my computer has gone to its home at Apple HQ for some repair work. I should have it back by Wednesday, but I won't be able to advance the game until then. Sorry.
I had that happen, sucks. We'll be here when your ready.
Ok, everyone. The computer is back in action.
Looks like the Updated Map actually isn't - sorry about that. I'm trying to get that updated now. It doesn't look like it's affecting round 1 combat too much, but we'll get it rectified.
Also, completely OOC, how lame is it that the first encounter in this AP is against a couple of zombies in a carriage? I PROMISE it gets better from here. :)
Lol well I guess it's best to start small, build from there :)
Sorry for the delay, everyone. I'll get things moving in the morning!
I apologize for the slow-going, everyone. Thanks for sticking around!
laptop died, have a replacement, im back
Just an FYI I am graduating from seminary this weekend, and finishing the move from Kentucky to Nebraska starting Monday. I will have limited posting time between now and Wednesday, NPC as needed. NPC Bryce as needed, I think you can see he is a take charge kind of guy.
Congrats on the graduation. :)
Well, after a day's delay in Kansas City for a car repair we have finally landed in Broken Bow as a whole family! Still have a lot to do to get my stuff settled in, but I should be able to get back to regular posting (Myabe a few delays, but not more than a day I suspect.)
Go ahead and get settled - we'll do a regrouping post-Memorial Day to see who's still around and engaged.
I'm not going anywhere. Loving the game so far.
I would totally be the one pushing things forward, but this character is ill-suited towards scouting or taking charge.
All right. Lets have a roll call. If you're still in the game, please post before end of day Wednesday. If you haven't checked in by then, we will assume you hate us and don't want to join us around the virtual tabletop any longer.
Present and ready. :)
What was that? I'm afraid I don't understand these words you speak. I am very old. Git off mah lawn.
Still here!
No hate here, I'm a peace and love gnome!
I apologize for the slow-going everyone. Hopefully after today's roll-call, we'll be able to resume our daily posting rate. If Nosh is gone, we should probably find a replacement, but we won't slow things up - I'll just bot his character until we find someone.
Thanks for sticking with me - I love this group and want to keep it moving!
Checking in.
ditto
Still here.
Sorry, everyone. I just updated the game to keep everything moving.
I'll put out a call for a new skill-based character now, too.
Good luck!
Sorry, everyone. Without getting too personal, my wife and I do foster care and it's been a rough couple of days. I'm not gone, just missing. I should be able to update the game this afternoon, though.
In the meantime, let's have a real quick role call to see who's still around and checking the game.
Cheers!
Still here, take your time. Real life always trumps fantasy message board games :) Thanks for keeping us posted. Accepting the Call to server as foster parents is an amazing gift, I pray your situation will settle down soon for everyone involved.
Still here and no worries. Life happens!
Definitely still here. Hope life gets easier for you.
Nice to see the dedication from those of us that are left.
Thanks, everyone.
So are we down to three? I'll give Baz a little longer to check in.
Sorry, been super busy - I've been watching for gameplay posts, but not checking discussion. I am very keen to continue.
Waiting to see what Baz does...also my lap top has bit the dust and I am sharing with the kids until I get something figured out. Might slow down my posting a tad until then. If needed go ahead and DM PC me. I should still be able to get on once a day so I hope it won't affect the thread to much.
Waitaminute...
I thought the thing was retreating. It had Morrigan grappled, and then ran away and up a tree?
I'm not usually one to rules-harp, but I'm not sure it should be able to do that.
Moving with another creature while grappling it is *really* difficult. At bare minimum it should have had to make a Drag check (which lets it move 5' per 5 points it beats her CMD by)
I don't want to retcon anything, but I think that when a character is being dragged up a tree by a monster, that needs to be made very clear. I honestly thought the thing was just running away.
Ragnar, the way I understand the rules, is that you can move while grappled with your opponent at half speed, but to reposition them (move them to a square different from the current line of movement) is when you use the CMD. The wyrm has a 30' climb speed, so it moved 10' on the ground and then 5' up the tree at half speed.
Am I understanding something incorrectly? It certainly wouldn't be the first time!
Also, sorry about the slow-going. Crazy week at work. Only one in the office and it's a short week. Game on!
Sorry for the delay, I had misread something and in my mind was waiting for Baz to post. My bad, I will watch to see what they do this round and will then post for next round.
I just looked it up. I think you're right. I was completely unaware that was an option.
Grapple just completely trumped Drag and Reposition. Crazy!
