I hope so. We have a cool group of players here (and PCs.)
Yeah, I wanna be a masked crime fighter. And I wanna develop Quentin's awkward man-crush on Shannon.
GM Jib is around - he was posting in another thread yesterday. He took on a lot with the several groups. Patience, young paduan.
I noticed. Checked our mirror games and noticed. Probably a real handful running combat in 3 different games.
Sorry Missed Ronwin's post/updated action still thought i was waiting for her response. Updating now
sorry - I'll speak more loudly next time :)
And so I celebrate the GMs return with a margarita served in a small fish bowl. Huzzah!
sorry - I'll speak more loudly next time :)
No problem, One thing that would make it easier for me , would be to post only your actions in between combat rounds, all other strategy/power gaming talk can be posted in Discussion forum. This has worked well to speed up the combat in the other games.
Killnary u around still?
Yeah, sorry. I've been sick as heck the last two days. I tried to get some posting in but Nyquil is a harsh mistress.
Harsh, but beautiful.
I'm holding fire waiting for Molino's action - Shannon also has to go, but Ronwn's action is going to depend much more on whatever the kid gets up to.
Molino (Morosino?) will still cowr in his turn, but...
Id like to remind everybody how i need everybody to post for combat, for this group is falling behind:
Post all actions in spoilers: (Ronwn/Quention) In fact, i would prefer everything in spoilers (speech, etc) to make it for a cleaner summary/game thread.
Please post asap, Do not wait for other players to post their actions before you post yours, for I feel this slows down game time drastically. Post when your action as soon as you have time. If you are not sure what your character will do or there actions are dependent on other pcs , feel free to give me options.
This way of handling combat has worked great for my other groups, and quite frankly, is the only way I intend to run my PBP games. I am having fun with this group and there is interesting character interactions, so i would hate to cancel it.
Any questions?
I personally hate the spoilers. Makes it hard to see what the other people are doing without clicking a bunch and it also makes it more work to write our own posts. I totally understand posting your action right away. Part of the reason this group is behind might be that you missed Ronwyn's post for several days ~_~.
That being said, if it's going to mean cancelling the game I will start to spoiler my actions.
Killarny wouldn't have used the Knightstick while he's not in superhero mode. That's why he's been using the fist load. He's holding back quite a bit.
Unfortunately, crossbows aren't necessary to take to a dinner engagement. And it seems uncouth to throw raw sewage at goblins! So I suppose our beaters can handle these creepy things.

Cool. Wasn't sure you were using unarmed strike or not, and the +4 bonus is the exact same on your nightstick so i figured you meant that..
Yeah, my bonuses for everything are pretty much the same right now. Nothing's masterwork or magic or anything. Makes all the math easy. :)
I thought it was the town guard who came after us in the beginning. My mistake. I was still confused I think about who is who and has what authority (the player's guide doesn't spell it out well.)
Ronwn, since you come after me in the initiative, I believe your sling Attack and Damage would have the benefit of the +1 Attack and Damage from the Bard Song. Which, provided they have an AC of 5, should be adequate.
Forgive me for reminding everyone of these things, but such has always been the role of the bard player. I've played enough of them to know that I'm responsible for making sure my benefit for the party is being utilized! :)
@shannon - and well appreciated. I'll note more carefully next time I encounter an AC 5 nasty in the sewers.
Hey, Killy, your Bladed Smile was +5 to hit and +1 to damage (for a total of 6 on the damage). Sorry, just doing my job! The +1 damage matters a lot at first level.
Have you got a 'dry clean this quick' ballad in there somewhere? I think Ronwn's about to have an urgent need for a long, long soak in a hot tub. Hrmm... on second thought, it might need to be a dirge for my clothes. Or maybe a Requiem...
Do'h! Thanks. It's hard to keep track of that stuff in round one. Thanks. :)
Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!
I will be taking a couple day break to celebrate the holiday's.
Have a great time with your families, and enjoy the feast.
I will see you all back in the Westcrown Sewers, sometime between Black Friday but no later then Cyber Monday! =D
Yes, enjoy the holiday.
Killy, your Last Laugh reminds me of a great movie.
Wow, that bear trap is huge. Mine looks more like this
But with a leather strap on the back side that acts as a handle. :)
I thought as much, but either way, it made me think of that classic film ending. So much so that I thought it might have been your inspiration when it came to weaponizing a trap.
Nope, never seen it. I just came across the bear trap stats and thought "That would make a darn good weapon to just hit people with at low levels", and a while later made this character and realized it fit his warped sense of humor.
definitely going to watch it now though.
Good choice. It is one of the few films that I'll call a film instead of a movie. Straw Dogs does have a remake that was released last year, and while many remakes are less sterling than the original, that was not the case with this remake. They maintained the same story and theme, but effectively heightened the tension and updated the setting a bit to communicate better with a contemporary audience.
Cool. I'll check it out, thanks.
It's under the Description of Special Equipment spoiler. Just answering now in case you check sooner than Killy comes around. :)
Yeah I Seen that =)
Not Finding "Last Laugh" anywhere on the PRD or other resources.
If it is not a special weapon, are you trying to use a bear trap as a melee weapon?
Yes, he is.
Yep.
The trap rules state anyone in the same square as the trap triggers it and takes the effect. (In this case, an attack with a +10 bonus). I'm basically just putting it in the same square as them, in a rather cartoony way that will hopefully result in uncartoony violence.
I could have just slid it under his feet, but I figured a touch attack was funnier and more realistic.
Sorry to slow things down. I realize this is pretty unorthodox.
I would like to thank you all for playinh, but unfortenuly I have bit off more then I could chew and im going to have to cancel the game. :( I may have a couple slots in the other game. Pvt msg me if interested
Well shoot.
:(
Well, honestly, three semi-identical games with fifteen players was ambitious, and I thought so from the beginning. No worries, though.
Damn. Oh well. Thanks for giving us the chance. Can you please change the game to inactive?
Yeah unfortunately the repetition has made it more of a chore then fun. =(
I will change the game to inactive in about 24 hours.
Also, You all have been great players, If i start another PBP in the future, I will msg all of you first and give you priority in the recruitment section.
@GM JIB - good fun, many thanks. I entirely understand the overload.
look forward to seeing you in other games, on other days.
@ALLCON - this has been a good band of players - let's do it again soon!
Agreed. As far as slots in other games, they already have bards so I would be redundant. Moreso, though, I think this character doesn't work as well separated from the Scarlet Pimpernel and Batman and the Fen Witch, for whom he could tailor extrvagant masked hero costumes and elegant dresswear. :)
sorry to hear that GM JIB but thank you for giving it a a try!
@Shannon. If you guys wanted to create another charcter for the other game that would be ok too...
