Losjien, to get a Scroll of Comprehend Languages is only 25 gold, or you can grab a Scroll of Tongues for 200 gold assuming you can find a bard who can make it, or 375 if you must get it from a wizard.
As for the Wand, you can get it for 750 gp, but if I may recommend, if you get 2,250 gold, you can get it advanced to a Wand of Magic Missile(CL 3), which will let you fire 2 missiles with each casting. Gortrek would probably be willing to lend the 400 gp to make up the difference.

If a bard (or wizard) is in town Losjien will meet him and get a scroll of comprehend languages for 200.
The wand I will take a basic for 750, I dont think Losjien is at a level with Gortrek where he would borrow money from him. He is stingy, but otherwise thanks!
Total 950GP
Also, for 50GP will a smith in town upgrade my Caltrops to Vicious Caltrops?

Just a heads-up that I'm going away for four days after work this evening so my posting might be a bit spotty. I'll try to keep up with things while I'm away but normal posting will resume on Monday.

Sorry team, I think I've been using Fly skill wrong. I thought I could use it like acrobatics to make a difficult motion. I have definitely moved around the map more freely than I should have.
Should be been rolling Acrobatics or Jump for those, neither which I have.
I plan on taking Fly, Illusory at next opportunity.

GM Red Box |

I will be honest i have been dreading this encounter since I read it well before we started. It was almost enough to make me pick a different AP. Lets see how it goes.

Wow, seriously impressive tactical map, thanks for all the work that goes into GMing this.
I have a very busy month coming up with work, moving, and a wedding so posts may be delayed at times. Ill try to keep up and will get some 'bot me' instructions written up just in case.

GM Red Box |

I just sent him a message. Was wondering that myself.

![]() |

Knowing him on Skype, the only mention I saw from him recently was indicating that Sally Whitemane was the newest character in HotS. Past that, I haven't seen him or his brother online for awhile. I think they may be getting overworked. That, or someone nuked Wisconsin.

GM Red Box |

I probably would have heard about the later options.
If someone would like to bot him please do. I have about a milling NPC's in this fight.

Durian The Wanderer |

did Durian's trip attempt fail against the light blue raider? I know you have a lot to track on there, so I wasn't sure if you had applied the AoO or not. the text said the light blue was swinging at Gortrek, but the pawn is over by Durian. if he's going after Durian, he would be tripped at Durian's 10 foot reach if his CMD is 16 or less. It's right on the line of what I would guess these guys' CMD would be at, so I'm wondering if it just failed or was missed in the confusion of this crazy combat.

GM Red Box |

I did miss that. Thank you. The time delay and posting on the weekend lol.

First summon I have done, any thing I messed up please let me know!

Durian The Wanderer |

Summon spells take one full round to use, so they will actually appear at the start of your next turn. if you are hit by anything while casting it there is a chance that it will fail.
the concentration +2 rounds doesn't actually mean you make a concentration check, it means the swarm will hang around as long as you spend your action each round maintaining the spell. once you stop to take some other action, they will last for 2 more rounds then fly away

GM Red Box |

Thanks for helping out Durian. We have different experience level players and it is great to see you helping each other.

Kagyu Mamoru |

Where'd everyone go!?

GM Red Box |

This happens some times in the summer.

![]() |

Sorry for slow posts everyone. Finishing moving this weekend. I'll be back to normal posts soon, hope everyone is having a nice summer.

GM Red Box |

I am sorry for the slow pace folks. I am going to operate under the assumption that soemthign is going on with Miyagi-san and Grotrek. I am not sure if they will still be in the game or not. I am going to move this fight forward and not wait on them as the turns go around any more.

GM Red Box |

Looks like the boards are back. Action is still to some players.
Also. Tomorrow I leave for a long weekend wedding with a lot of scotch and no computer. I would expect little before Tuesday.

Kagyu Mamoru |

No kidding! It's been down for what? A week? Longer? No worries. Have fun at the wedding!

Tahata Moonrunner |

And then down again for another day or so. Most inconvenient.

GM Red Box |

Site has been up for almost 18 hours so thats good.

Tahata Moonrunner |

I'm off on holiday for a week and a bit tomorrow so my posting might become a little patchy.
Apologies in advance, feel free to bot me if needed.

Kagyu Mamoru |

Aaaand were back just in time for a long weekend. If it's still up by tonight I might be able to copy paste the post I've had ready for a week T_T

GM Red Box |

Well it seems the boards are back. Sending PM's to those that are up.

GM Red Box |

Ok it looks like we lots two players, the two that I started this game for.
I am ending the current battle, this is the ending that would have happened anyway but the numbers are wrong at this point. Feel free to give chase as they head to the boat or just let them go and tend to the caravan.
We have four players and a wolf at this point. Do any of you know someone that would want to join? Five seems a good number.
I am assuming you are not all frustrated with the slow pace and board outages.

GM Red Box |

I plan to keep going as long as players want to play.

Kagyu Mamoru |

I'm happy to keep playing. I've been enjoying the game and your DMing style a lot. I just reached out to my friend who is running a game on Roll20 to see if he's interested in joining

Tahata Moonrunner |

I'm enjoying it, happy to keep playing.

![]() |

I'm sorry I have been gone everyone. I am not able to post on a regular basis for the foreseeable future unfortunately. Home life and opportunities at work are just my top priority and I feel I need to end here. I apologize.

GM Red Box |

Well that is too bad but knowing what is going on I get it. I will find a replacement player or two and we will keep moving.
I am not going to go up to maximum size so if you want to come back at another date let me know.

GM Red Box |

I am working on rounding out the groups feel free to comment in the recruitment thread. Also you have a bunch of dead bodies laying there an no idea, fleeing attackers and no idea what that was all about.

Tahata Moonrunner |

Is anyone else seeing all the text for this game in red?

GM Red Box |

Yes, it is a bug since the site update. Somehow having the word red in the name of a game is turning things red. Very odd but i dont want to rename things.

Tahata Moonrunner |

It's not just me then, that's fine.

Durian The Wanderer |

So who is still in? Is it just me and Tahata, or is Kagyu still playing? Looks like there is plenty of interest in the recruiting thread, I'm just curious how many slots need to be filled.

GM Red Box |

Kagyu is still in I believe. He works with an IRL friend so I can find out easy enough. He post a bit ago that he was here.

GM Red Box |

Kagyu is still in I believe. . He post a bit ago that he was here.

Kagyu Mamoru |

Yup. I'm still in and here. I'll post tonight when I get home.

GM Red Box |

Changed the game name. No more red text.

GM Red Box |

Ok folks I have filled the game back up. You will be gaining a rogue/wizard, a sorcerer and a bard shortly. I have asked them to check in in the discussion thread and I will work them in over the next little bit as you continue your travels.
