Yup, I picked up Reactionary as well--Araden's been wandering for some time now, and he's got an itchy trigger finger.
Also, guns are still touch attacks in the first range increment, correct? This guy's pretty ridiculous if that's the case... 1d8+1 damage, possibly twice that in a round, and 5% of the time he'll deal 4d8+4.
Try to save some of the kills for us melee characters :)
Hah, worry not. Volk has four attacks at first level, plus a free combat maneuver. When we're done, there won't be much left for him to shoot.
I also have a handy +6 to initiative, which will be going up in the future when I pick up the feat. Shoot first, melee later.
Dr. Guthrak looks up from running a file over the edge of his Gorilla Wrench.
Careful fellas, there is always something bigger and nastier lurking out there in the wastes. We ain't gonna be the only team out there neither and 'accidents' have been known to happen outside the walls.
The half-orc adjusts his hat and a strap on his pack and gives a tusked grin.
So then what's next? A bounty hunt? Salvage run? I could use me some new relays...
Araden, yes guns hit touch AC at the 1st range increment.
Everyone, I must say, having ran the playtest, you guys are correct in that combat will be brutal and fast paced. It will still be challenging, however, I assure you. I have my evil GM laugh prepared!
As a side note, I will have the campaign and discussion threads up around lunch Eastern Standard Time tomorrow.
Dr. Guthrak, starting GP is max for your class. As for the groups first adventure, well, you'll have to wait until tomorrow! I will say that it has something for everyone!
Something for everyone, eh? What would that list include? Things to shoot for me, obviously.
Silver Prince and Araden
just a FYI on Advanced Firearms
They hit touch AC up to the first 5 range increments.
Max range in 10 increments.
It is a move-action to reload to max capacity.
No explosion on misfire while broken.
Range increment penalties still apply as normal.
Araden, I won't reveal the plot/specifics, but there will be combat obviously, opportunities for sharpshooting, feats of strength, item scavenging, interesting RP, and other things, including something that is TOO BIG TO POST NOW lol! Trust me, surprises are better at their appointed times. Also, Guthrak is correct on touch AC increments.
Dr. Guthrak, you deserve that Alkenstar PhD, because I totally forgot about advanced firearms having a different touch AC increment! I feel like facepalming myself for that oversight right now, though I am refraining from doing so lol. In any case, many thanks!
Sweet! I hope we end up facing big, slow things. They're lots of fun when guns factor into the equation.
The campaign thread is up! Will post the intro shortly.
Argh, the gameplay thread didn't show for some reason. Let me contact Paizo and see what may have happened. Sorry for any delays.
On my side it shows:
The Game Master has not yet connected the Gameplay thread to this campaign.
Same thing for Discussion, ect.
BTW updated charachter with gear.
Hopefully my high crit range will help me keep pace with the gunslinger and the furry fury. Fortunatly, I'm also bringin the heals too keep me usefull :)
Hey, don't worry, Imak. There are three kinds of people in the world: those who shoot, those who get shot, and those wise enough to help the gunslinger.
I'm gonna focus mostly on drawing agro anyway. Swingin a big ass sword while screaming on the front lines so the enemy doesn't notice they're being gunned down from behind me.
Just talked with Gary, the guy in charge of the message boards and we are good to go! I will post tomorrow since it is getting late. To make up for the technical difficulties, I will make an effort to post multiple times tomorrow.
The gameplay thread is NOW up! I apologize for the rather cheesy opening, but I have little skill at intros. I am a whole lot better once the story starts flowing. Anyway, if everyone has posted in 3 hours, I will post again. If not, I'll just wait until everyone has posted. Makes things much easier.
