Aubrey's Other Eberron Campaign - The Unbinding (Inactive)

Game Master Aubrey the Malformed

I'm interested to see how this plays out when rubber meets road. Having ideals/beliefs makes things interesting, if we get into a situation where team members are withholding aid from their fellows in dire straits ... that gets dicey fast.

Like I said, interested to see how it plays out.

it's all good with me, whatever happens. If they come to blows, it will be interesting to watch (Nalverren has no real reason to jump in for either side, although Wultram's pragmatic nature is more to his liking)

Portforged has somewhat of a preference to side with Wultram, but he isn't really keen on backing either.

posting this in all 28 of my games (although some of them are dead, i am pretty sure... and others are quite slow so my absence will not be missed overmuch):

There are two hurricanes heading for Hawaii, where I live. One is supposed to land on Friday after being downgraded to a tropical depression, the other is supposed to land Sunday with experts unsure as to how much it'll be downgraded after colliding with the mountains.

I'm sure everything will be fine, so no need to worry. People are freaking out for some reason, but I remain in a state of relative readiness.

I anticipate a loss of internet, at a minimum (they can barely keep it together under optimal conditions). Likely loss of power as well. A time without electricity could last anywhere from four days to four months (with some time around one to two weeks being more realistic).

I'll be on between now and then, but if i just disappear, check the news, hahaha.

Oof. Take care, man.

Good luck and stay safe.

Good luck, Tenro.

Hi guys, I am back but I've got a few things work-wise to do. Should be back on imminently.

Welcome back.

Seconded.

Good to have ya back.

Hooray!

Just to let everyone know I am, yet again, going on holiday - this time for a week - from Saturday 23rd August. Again, I am very unlikely to have internet access.

Enjoy a well deserve rest :)

Have a good time, Aubrey!

Agreed. Have fun. :)

Posting this to all My games:

I am heading off this afternoon to a 3 day music Festival. Expect very limited posting from my part.

If the game is in the middle of combat I WILL post once a day my combat actions.

Normal posting will resume on monday 25th

I'm on holiday after today - see you all Monday after next.

Have fun too, ALgar!

Hopefully you can conclude on this by the time I get back from holiday.

Oooooh. A week of RP wrangling. Let's go!

Have a nice trip, Aubrey.

This is going to all my games:
In the next couple weeks, my life will be extremely hectic. My hope is to be able to log in once a day, but it is unlikely I will be able to engage in rapid exchanges throughout a day. And if I disappear for a couple days, it's probably due to busyness.

Guys, I'll be in England for work. I'm visiting NPL in Teddington and a few other places in the area. Getting in Sunday morning the 7th. I've got the following weekend free, but transportation might be difficult. I also have morning and early afternoon on the 18th. I'd be thrilled if I could meet some of you, but the boss is paying for the trip so work must come first. If we can work out a visit within those constraints, it would be great.

NPL as in "National Physical Laboratory"? I went for a job interview there once. Teddington is quite close (very close) to where I was brought up and went to school, Kingston-upon-Thames, so I know the area well.

I don't live in London anymore but I work in central London. If you get the chance, after work we can meet up. What are you here to do (or is it hush-hush)?

Yes, National Physical Laboratory.

I'm coming over to witness some of the NPL metrology training programs. We're talking to them about presenting their programs in the US. From our side it's a great chance to gain additional expertise and crack open the training market. Hopefully we offer them greater exposure stateside and can save them money by reducing the need for their team to travel here or to Canada to present.

Aubrey, I'll get a daily schedule tomorrow, but the theory of meeting after work is a good one. Hopefully we can make it work.

Hopefully we can work something out. If you are in Teddington, you can catch the train into Waterloo (takes about 30 minutes) and then you are in easy striking distance.

Sweet!

I received a more complete itinerary today. I'll be up near Coventry Tues night - Friday, returning to Teddington by train Friday night. Next week I should be free Mon-Wed, work ending about 6 pm on those days. Hopefully that's convenient for you.

Ha! It's like we're meant to be together. I live in Rugby, the next town from Coventry.

Hmmm. Might be able to work something out up there if it's more convenient for you. We'll be getting in later on Tuesday and Tuesday night I'm actually in Meriden(?). Wed and Thursday in Coventry. Friday night on a train headed back to London-Teddington.

Unfortunately my cell phone doesn't understand the network here, so communication must pass through my laptop.

Meriden is practically on the outskirts of Birmingham, so that's quite a way. Are you flying in to Birmingham airport (as that's down the road from there)? Whereabouts in Coventry are you going to be?

My host at NPL lives in Coventry. Wednesday we bop about the country side, first to a company where they are in the midst of a training course, then to another where he will be pitching the course to a potential customer. Thursday we're also visiting during the day. Wednesday and Thursday night I am in the Brooklands Grange Hotel. My host has offered me dinner Wed and a bit of sight seeing Thursday evening after work, and I'd like to take him up on it, so a latish meeting would be most convenient for me either night. Friday night I have more freedom as long as I can make a train into London that will get me back to Teddington. ( I wish the phone was working. IT would be so much easier.)

Sounds like you've got your time planned out. London the following week might be easier.

Aubrey,

my host dug up an old cell phone. I popped in a new sim card and voila! I have returned to the 21st century. Mon or Wed nights would be best for me, but I could swing Tues. 07763984257

Aubrey, google says I need permission to see the map.

Oops, for got to change the sharing settings.

Thom, are you in the UK yet? Dropped you a text message.

If we survive, I think we might level up!

Aubrey, I've been in the UK for a week unless Teddington and Coventry don't count? :-D I texted back. Could make Tues work, but I'm guessing I won't be able to hop a train from Teddington until 6:30 or 7 pm.

Travel home and a trip to visit my boy at college kept me tied up. I will post at lunch.

No worries - it's been a pretty quiet weekend on all my games.

I am away from tonight until Sunday night - my wife's birthday weekend - and I doubt I'll be checking in much.

Posting this to all My Games:

I will be traveling this weekend to my vacation destination. There will be no post from me until Monday.

Please Bot me as needed.

From Sept 29 th to October 4th Expect little posting

From October 5th to October 15th Expect Next to no posting

(dunno the internet availability so i am assuming the worst case)

Thank you for your patience

Decided to take this here as to no further clutter the game thread. Will see if I can manage actions for the others later unless someone else manages it in the meanwhile.

Action: Ready.
Action: Delay.

So Wultrams intiative is the same as ever. The readied action was wasted as it was not triggered.

Thanks for the clarification. However, with a mixture of readied and delayed actions, it was a bit easier to handle by treating them the same. Anyone who is currently down as delaying can jump in when they feel it is appropriate.

This is long so I'll say it OOC.

• I think a fight in canoes is going to have a long ranged combat before either side can close for melee, if they close for melee.
• They're smart enough not to close if they're winning a ranged fight.
• I don't relish the idea of melee in a canoe. When we tip over the lizardfolk will have a big advantage in the water.
• We could set up one canoe for a ranged fight and it could run blocker for the other one.
