That's fine - just thought I'd offer.
I can be on tonight after 8PM for a Slype practice
Looks like we are just waiting for Round 8. Maheem should be down.
Guys, I am organizing an event in Woodstock for July 7-9. About 5000 people are expected to attend. So the logistics of housing, food, transportation, etc is quite the thing.
So I will be slow until then.
Luckily, we only have this battle and one more day to play before our live climax-of-book-1 event! So being a bit slow right now isn't too much of a thang.
Just for curiosity... Doug, how didja like roll20?
|
Good luck with that event, Marguerite!
roll20.net works pretty well, and I like it. It's hard for me to find time to play on that platform, but it's always nice to have that system in my back pocket. I'm thinking, for instance, of days in the winter when the weather might force us to cancel PFS at New Paltz - if enough people are game, we can potentially still play from our homes.
Hey Gang!
Hope you're still here. Thanks for your patience.
I will "go dark" from Saturday afternoon until Wednesday morning. (although you may barely notice at this rate.)
I still have next Thursday's live game on my calender. Are you all still in?
And up until Saturday I hope to get as close as possible to the climactic battle. So here goes...
Lori and I are still on for Thursday.
still here Just remember that I have to work till about 8 pm on the weekends (2pm-7 pm wiht about an hour out of touch)
Whoops. I mean these are the times I am available.
All day Monday
8pm-on M-Th
9PM-on Friday-Sat
6pm on Sunday
We had agreed to a one-time live (skype) game on Thursday July 11.
I would be open to playing on Roll20 every few months. But I think Zorg needs to be judicious about this with his spouse. So probably no more than every 6 months.
I'd like to start early-ish. 6pm or 7pm at the latest because Friday is a work day for me.
Noonan, you'll have to jump in when you can.
Gilraen and Sidhon have known how to get to my house for decades.
Noonan we have tested skype and it seems to work for sound. I'm not going to post more than the general maps online. We'll do our best to explain the set up when its your action.
Zorg-- I will PM you directions.
Cool! I'm glad we're on.
I think I can get by with 'Move close and punch'
Let's say 6:30 for set up, intros, ordering food, etc.
And 7:00 for starting.
And Noonan will join us via skype after 8, I believe?
Tomorrow! Yay!
And Doug... could you bring some minis? I have paper ones from the pdf but not for your characters. Maybe some extras that look sea monster-y or pirate-y. They don't have to be perfect, just placeholders. :)
I've got a map-board and markers!
Oh and if folks have laptops and tablets with hero lab and access to the pfsrd those would be good to bring too!
Setting sail soon!
I will hopefully be able to make it. I will drop word here if I end up being to tech dumb to get through on Skype so you can ring me up.

Hi, Marguerite -
It turns out Amanda is running a fever - not a horrible one, but I'd rather stay home to be here if she needs me. Can I Skype in or FaceTime in (if someone has an iPad)? My Skype handle is doug-maynard and you can reach my iPad at prog_frog@yahoo.com. I need to run to the store quickly to get a couple of things but should be home by 7:15. Sorry about all this! :( I'll check back in when I get home from the store.
~Doug
Finished work and will hopefully be hone soon for Skyping
HP roll for level 3
+3 from CON and +1 from favored class bonus=8
If you roll less then half, then take half. But don't make it permanent yet.
For tonight i"m also going to have Daniel-Zorg roll for you so I don't have to refer back to this page. Many pages open.
3rd level stats
New Abilities: Extreme Endurance(Hot) Inured to hot climates as per Endure Elements
HP 45
Bab +1(+3)
Saves Reflex +1(+5) Will +1(+4)
Trap Sense +1 Reflex saves +1 AC vs. traps
New Feat:Tougness +3 HP
Brass Knuckles +7 1d3+5
2 Handed Sword +7 2d6+4
Skills: Acrobatics +1 (9) Perception +1 (7) Climb +1 (9)
Finished leveling
Noonan - first, Sidhon will try to keep Noonan's preferences in mind going forward... He's going to try to be the group's armorer, and having lived with simple kobold folk, he can probably anticipate Noonan's approach to arms and armor. :) We'll get you covered.
Noonan - second, one of the first thing's Apocalypso did is post the campaign actions under the campaign info section and they include a bunch of stuff in addition to smoozing. I think Apocalypso's just playing up the drinking as a very noticable piratical activity going on all around. For Sidhon, the extended drunken partying is a great distraction for other activities. :)
Noonan can distract. Nothing will be seen when he stands in the way.
@Noonan - OTOH, large tatooed gourd-wearing barbarian is not 'unobtrusive'
Level 3 :: 2 < 4.5 -> result taken as "4"
@Sidhon, Zorg, and Noonan--
For leveling up Hp-->
If you roll less than half of your die, then take half, rounded up.
Now dice are funny because half of a d6 is 3.5, not 3
This is an effect of dice not having a zero, but a 1 as the lowest number.
Halfway between 1 and 6 is 3.5, round up to 4.
half of a d8 is 4.5, so 5.
And half of a d12 is 6.5, so 7.
This has been a service announcement from your friendly neighborhood GM. Carry on.
Oh, BTW Doug... if I were to try to qualify our game for PFS credit, how would I go about that. I'd probably have to knock you guys down to PFS standard for the battles. Would it otherwise be possible?
And once we know the requirements, we can decide if y'all think its worth it. :)
Unfamiliar with PFS. What I have heard makes me go 'eh'
@Sidhon Of course I am obvious! Everyone will be so busy looking at me that they overlook everyone else.
One more hp is good for me, given he's now up to a whopping 13 for 3rd level!
Pathfinder Society probably won't work in our case as we can't be goblins and kobolds without special boons that are pretty rare (given out at Cons). So unless Sidhon and I want to switch characters, it's a non-starter and not really worth looking into the details.
What is next on the agenda? Noonan is asking Sidhon about bandoliers.
@Noonan - sry, yes. I'd imagine there should be some bandoliers available among the booty, if you don't mind scrubbing a bit of blood out. Sidhon will help fit them to Noonan's size - though he may need a ladder to reach.
I'm contemplating what sort of mischief Sidhon would be up to while a drunken shindig commences on deck. Several things I'm thinking about will be a dead letter as soon as we find out we're getting moved to the new ship. One thing I'm looking for in the store is some 'squibs' or cartridges - twists of gunpowder in paper. Sidhon would be using them to develop traps around the current ship, and I can justify Sidhon not having an opportunity to do anything with them before being transferred.
Unfortunately, it would never occur to Sidhon that we would get posted to the skeleton crew taking the prize ship to market. Doesn't make any operational sense at all - just fodder for Scourge's revenge fantasies. Which will leave Sidhon fairly unprepared... :\ Sidhon hates unprepared.
I'll post this PM.
Noonan wil scrub a dub as much as needed. Thanks pal.
Noonan will drink, do work dutifully and fob around until we leave. Noonan will be the onewho makes sure the others don't fall overboard while drunk.
meh. a few convenient overboardings might be timely. :)
*Splash* Whoops, Fipps. Should have laid off the hooch.

Hope we can get to a port soon so I can get a large sized greatsword.
Your sword is too big already. It doesn't fit into that little gourd.
Of course it is big. I have to hold it with both hands.
Hoping to hear a little bit from Gilraen.
We'll push onward on Monday.
No more claims on stuff?
Who's taking which potions?
Noonan took a CMW potion
Is Owlbear on the merchant ship with us?
*bump*
We still up for adventure?
Is the game still going? I haven't gotten any communication back.
Well, if that is the case, thanks for letting me join. It has been fun reading the exploits of a most unusual pirate gang.
