Redelia's Ironfang Invasion (high) (Inactive)

Game Master Redelia

To early to tell for me.. plus not knowing whats ahead... I've seen some hellishly difficult APs.

Yes, hello, I will take the wand of grease. I can sacrifice three scrolls to cover the 75 gp value it has. What DC will the grease spell use? Mine, or does it have a different one?

As to the difficulty...I think the fact there's 6 of us is doing as much if not more about the ease of the first few encounters. Perhaps adding an extra enemy (or two if they are rather weak enemies) to each encounter might not be a bad idea, just to balance out the action economy. It's what I do when I run a group of 6 through an AP, regardless of the strength of their characters.

What DC will the grease spell use? Mine, or does it have a different one?

Wands default to 1st level and minimum int bonus required to cast spell so DC is gonna suck (DC12 I believe) but hey reflex is a common weak save.

I agree that the difficulty can be amped up a notch.but I also think the dice favored us a bit. I missed maybe 2 out of 8 swings which means ~75% of the time my 2d6+6 damage got off which is stupid good for 1st level. I was figuring on more like a 50% hit rate since my attack bonus is low and I expect the dice to go cold on me.

Those Masterwork items we got.. are the extra or counted in the 1000 gold of stuff we now have?

Meh. It makes for a good last resort if I need it, or if we're dealing with large numbers of weak things. Whatever works for prolonging the low-level caster's low spells/day.

I think we could probably stand a little bump.

Leveled and ready to rock whenever.

Oops. I've updated the file in HeroLab, but forgot to update my profile. I'll get to that tonight, on the phone right now. I'm ready to go.

Arcavic is ready to continue - and grumble about the sunlight we will inevitably face.

Ready just fixing equipment

OK, waiting for Lillie, Cnut, and Korvak to finish levelling up (or at least to change profile/stat line).

I am assuming that this weekend everyone will be slow to post.

Updated and ready to go.

Should be ready soon

I've still got a spare 159 gp bouncing around, anyone got any suggestions for what to do with it?

Alchemist fires to drop from the skies..

Do you have a masterwork backpack? 50 gp to make it easier to carry stuff. Maybe upgrade your Flying Straps to masterwork while you're at it?

Added the masterwork straps and pack. I figure 59gp is good walking around money.

Finished updating 13 GP left
Hp was half +1?

HP is roll here for your hit die, add in the usual con, and any favored class bonus or anything you choose. If you roll low, you get half your die instead of the roll.

hp: 1d10 + 2 ⇒ (4) + 2 = 6

So you would get 7 HP, Lillie, since 4<5=10/2.

I'm done.. I have a travelers any-tool

Good call

Ok, guys; I'm going to take another day or so to look carefully over your characters and set up the system for your followers.

Do you want to continue to worry about what all of your followers do? I know some of you said you are interested in these rules, but just the little bit we have already done I've found to be incredibly tedious, as well as slowing the game down. And that's only going to get worse now that there are so many choices. I would like to drop keeping track, and just bring things up where they contribute to the story. However, I don't want to just decide this without input from you.

While I don't particularly mind it, I've also realized that just that little bit resulted in a huge slowdown of the game - and unlike in Kingmaker, this doesn't seem to have anywhere near as much impact on the story as Kingdom Building does. Given how easily a PbP can slow down and die, I'm okay if we want to drop keeping track and just use the themes that tie into the story.

As the wise GM says it is having an impact on the game, we shall be guided by your wisdom good GM Redelia sir.

We can drop it

I think I'm with Ira it loses something when it's done PB slows down the game

I'm fine with just bringing it up when it adds to the story

Sounds good to me. Leave it aside except when it adds to the story.

Ok, sounds like we have a conclusion.

Alright guys, I hate to do this to you, but it is looking like I am just too busy to keep up with this game. I'm going to withdraw now, to save you all the bother.

Ira, thank you very much for telling us, rather than disappearing. Happy gaming to you, and I hope to run into you in the future on the boards.

Catcha Ira tis a pity to se you go, your character was interesting.

Happy gaming, Ira! Sorry to see you go.

Likewise. Sorry to see you go.

Sad to see you go. Happy gaming

Hey guys, my father-in-law is in the hospital, and my wife and I have our second wedding anniversary next week. Posting might be short and scarce until Thursday.

Thanks for letting us know. Best wishes and have a happy celebration when you can. (My husband and I will be celebrating 18 years in a few days. I feel so old saying that...)

Dang it now who is my lizardwoman going to make uncomfortable with her desire to find a strong male to mate with!

Can I use Knowledge nature to tell if symptoms fit a poisonous plant or animal?

Yep. I tend to allow any knowledge check to provide some information that is appropriate. For instance, you can always use knowledge(religion) on an enemy, and it will tell you if they are undead, and if they are wearing any signs of a deity.

Hey guys, good news/bad news time. I recently joined the Army, and will be leaving for basic training in two weeks. From 09/19, I won't have internet for, at a minimum, 10 weeks (after Basic, I got to training in my specific job, which is another 16 weeks. I think I'll have internet access at that time, but I'm not 100% certain). While I'd be happy to just go on hiatus for a while and then pop back up later, if you'd rather drop me and find a replacement, I fully understand.

Still need to figure out money, since I don't really use weapons or armor. Are cloaks of resistance +1 okay?

1d10 ⇒ 7

Can I take multiattack? It requires three natural attacks, which I have...but only in hybrid or animal forms, so I'm technically ineligible in human form.

Yeah, a +1 cloak of resistance is reasonable. I'm trying to keep a slight brake on the gear for a little longer, until we can explain how you're buying stuff, but the cloak is reasonable.

That will burn the last of my level up gold (I just took the difference between level 2 and level 3 WBL, assuming I'm not sacrificing any of my current equipment). The most significant purchase I made was a wand of mage armor, along with a potion of cure light wounds and a few scrolls (endure elements and comprehend languages, mostly).

Korvak, if you want some armor buffing, just ask. That's one of the reasons I grabbed the wand.

Same goes for anyone else who doesn't use armor but finds themselves needing the AC boost.
