Indeed, it's a pity to see you go. I hope RL clears up for you soon!
Anyone else's campaign tab stopped notifying you of new posts?
I haven't been able to get to the My Campaigns tab for at least a day. At first I couldn't reach the site at all, then I kept getting a blank tab. After getting fed up I tried going through my various user names, and can reach posts from there.
Hopefully others can find a similar way of viewing things, though I'm glad it's not just me ;)
I suggest we provide a stout, reinforced room for Kundal in the castle/residence.
Something with iron barred window, iron barred reinforced door and a steel or iron bar across the outside of the door.
I also suggest we put him on the guard force, with "special duties" on and around the full moon. If we can trust him put and about, perhaps get him involved in the wilderness rangers and local hex scouts we employ?
I would agree with that, with some additional provisions. Vorsirion/Thurl, could either of you make a relevant check to determine whether or not binding Kundal in silver chains would a) sufficiently restrain him in wolf form and b) have any non-beneficial effects?
Silver chains seems like a good thought to have. I would suggest that Vorsirion and Thurl also do as much as they can in the day to research the wolfsbane angle. The sooner we find a workable solution to this thing, the better.
What kind of check would that require, Wolfspirit?
Heads up, everybody, I literally cannot see the Gameplay or Discussion threads. If anybody else has this problem, or a way to fix it, PM me.
I've had a similar problem off and on, though I've realized that if I navigate by my account to the posts I can find them. Also http://paizo.com/campaigns/KingmakerLegaciesOfDust/discussion&page=last should work.
(PMing the same information.)
Poking in; I'm working on the next update, but trying to go for quality over "getting something in". I'll have something one way or another tomorrow evening at the latest, however.
A quick update from me: I'm working on getting the next transition up, but fell short tonight. I did want to say I'm still alive and give an update on my life status:
The Good: After doing the work of two different positions for half a year now, I'm finally being promoted to the new position.
The Bad: There currently isn't a backfill for my old position, so now I'm *literally* doing the work of two people. All my usual windows of time to work on PbP have been gobbled up as I juggle things... at least for another week or so.
The Amazing: I've been selected to fly out to Vegas in about two weeks and pitch a game idea! (sadly can't share too much.)
The Ugly: I've fallen remarkably short on posting. The next leg has some logistics to get over, and I've let things get drawn out horribly bad. I am working to catch up, but it's been rough. I hope I haven't lost people, but I understand it's hard to keep a game going with a GM that can't consistently commit.
I hope everyone is doing well.
No worries, GM.
the IRL monster strikes all of us from time to time, do what you gotta, and I'll be here when we get moving.
I second Alamina; RL hits us all at one point or other. Don't sweat it! I, for one, ain't goin' nowhere.
Yeah. RL takes priority over games.
Hey there everyone. I just wanted to pop in to say that I'm back and survived the past few weeks; they've been incredibly insane, but things should be quieting down and I'll be dedicating a chunk of time tomorrow to getting things in gear again with the game.
Welcome back! I'm sure I speak for the group when I say we're glad to have you returning to us!
Well, my posting plans were shot by an emergency vet visit over the weekend, but I'm returning to the swing of things (hopefully everyone survived Memorial Day.) I've been working through the plan laid out before of building: On the middle of Month three, you've built the following: Dancehall, two houses, Mill, Jail. You've had some moderate success on your economy, bringing you to 31 BP.
However, the populace apparently was disconcerted enough by the Werewolf that you failed your Unrest Check. I'm not sure if that changes your plans at all: You can attempt to have your Royal Enforcer reduce the Unrest by 1, or buy a building that reduces it.
Feel free to check the Kingdom Sheet Here and my Math Here.
I'm also working on the next RP update to attempt to regain some momentum.
Hope things find everyone well!
Why is Grigori on there?
Unless I'm having a massive lapse in memory, we didn't recruit him, we just used him to gain some publicity.
Right?
I believe our best option for dealing with the Unrest is to pause construction on the other districts we have planned and instead build a City Wall. It's cheap, it's efficient, gives us a good defense boost, and if we get unlucky enough to get another Unrest point it subtracts 2 Unrest total, still bringing us down to 0.
What does everybody think of that?
A city wall seems like any excellent idea to me. It will certainly also encourage more commerce in Hopefeld, right up the alley of an Abadaran.

Grigori is just listed from available NPCs. He is not a Leader.
As an aside, is anyone else backing The Kingmaker CRPG?
I'm reading about it but I haven't decided if I'm gonna back it or not. I was a big fan of NWN in all its iterations, so it would definitely be something to bring back fond memories.
Re: Raven: I checked Raven's profile, and I can't find anywhere that they've posted on the forums since the end of May. I've sent a Private Message to see what's going on with them; hopefully they're doing ok. Raven was one of the players that pushed the hardest to get this game running in the first place.
For now until they say otherwise, I would assume that they would be GM-NPCed. This does leave us in the position that there are currently only three active players. That does leave us in a kind of a difficult spot.
Apologies for my absence the last few days; after vacation I needed a day to just recover, then my sister had to have a heart ablation and my wife volunteered us to babysit her kids Monday and Tuesday. I should be back in the saddle now.
Hopefully everything has calmed down with you Thurl. That doesn't sound fun, at all.
The "Light" group is still chugging along. They have lost one member (with a familiar "fell off the face of the earth" manner completely unexpectedly) and a few have had to take time off, but it has had a much more consistent roster.
I hope to wrap up this combat, then start dropping some more (hopefully) interesting exposition / foreshadowing.
Happy 4th of July! I hope everyone is having a good 4th; I've been panicking dog duty the past few days as people stretch out shooting fireworks beyond any reasonable timeframe :P
I have received word back from Raven's player that they were taking a sudden departure from the boards due to burnout and other personal matters with no word if or when they would be back (with it sounding more like the later.) I'm not sure where that puts us with the game / party. I am certainly regaining a semblance of a life again, so I'm game to continue. It might be difficult to recruit at the start of the second book with a slower paced game, however.
Anyway, I do have exciting things coming up soon :)
Happy Independence Day, everyone! May your barbecue be delicious and your fireworks spectacular!
Hey guys, sorry for the radio silence this week; I had the greatest of intentions that were met with a range of stuff, the highlight of which was a tire blow-out on the interstate. I'm fine, car fixed, work progressing, though I need to get some sleep to deal with an emergency IT issue at 6AM tomorrow. Will post some more tomorrow.
Glad to hear that all is well! It wasn't a blow-out, but I did get a flat on I-16 right outside Macon, GA several years ago. I think more drivers going by just whizzed right by me in the adjacent lane rather than getting into the fast lane (as the law requires). It was scary!
Hey everyone, I'd like to apologize for my poor updates the past few weeks. Things in and out of work have been pretty crazy for numerous reasons. It's been weighing on me, and at this time I've realized that I'm at the point where I can't reliably post on any sort of a schedule. It isn't fair to anyone and I've decided that as I haven't been able to commit I should probably step down from GMing this game.
It wasn't an easy decision; I've been waffling back and forth over whether I should really call it quits after a few bad weeks, but I can't look back to when I was actually able to run the game in a way I was proud of.
I would love to give some closure, but We aren't at a really "good" stopping point. Alternatively, between the two games I had going there are enough active players that if someone wanted to organize and take the reins I'm sure there would be a good game. So, I leave it to you guys on how you want to proceed.
As much as I'm going to miss the story, playing with you all has been a privledge and I'm going to miss that the most. I'd be happy to exchange emails with anyone that wants to through Private Messages. Finally, I *am* going to be working at Gen*Con and Dragon*Con, so if anyone is and would like to meet up, let me know.
Sorry to see you go, but I understand entirely that life can get crazy on you with no warning whatsoever. I wish you much luck and many blessings in your future endeavors!
