Salty GM's Serpent's Skull (Inactive)

Game Master Saltykid

Merry Christmas every one and a Happy Year!

Seems lady luck isn't much on our side with the rolls.

She is still dizzy after New Year celebration, so she is trying to understand which side is ours. I never seen game lost or won purely by dice rolls. More often, game is lost by player willingness to retreat and strange tactical decisions taken.

You have a plausible point there, sir Lormo, she might still be having a week after party.

Player willingness to retreat is different from Party willingness to retreat.

That said, this should not be one of those occasions.

I'm doing OK on my end. :D

Dropping them seems to be good idea to me. They do not attack, and they provoke AoO, when they stand up; they have -4 AC penalty, when they down to be hit and during AoO. Currently, my main problem is lack of weapon to hit them deadly enought. Even with successful sap hit with maximum damage, I will contribute 2 DMG due to damage reduction. Unless they hit me with AoO, doing trips is more combat effective.

@Kasia, to answer your question: if enemy does 5-ft step in threatened area, he provokes no AOO. This allows to do some tactical repositioning during combat, for example those movements Lormo is doing.

Then my next question:

Do zombies know how to 5ft step? -erm shuffle?

They do. Its the only way, besides charging, for them to move and attack in the same turn.

Are we still going?

Ditto

That's is quite tricky to answer. I think, the question is "Are you willing to continue in same tempo?" And then my answer is "I want this game to be more active"

But for some uncertain-where-origin reason it slowed down.
I'd like to go on too.

I should think it is a certain-where-origin
Before I posted the ditto, I noticed the game went inactive on my campaign list.

Did it? Wow, I didn't know it gotten that bad. I'm glad you guys still want to continue though.

I think the slow down happen at the start of December when I was doing the final push for school and it hadn't quite recover since.

If no one objects I would like to keep the hand axe so I have a melee weapon.

Go Hawks. Enjoy your superbowl sunday everyone, USA or no.

Just to let you know, I will be at a convention this weekend.

Heads up. Just going to take a quick look around and report back.

Hey folks, sorry but this gnome is stepping down.

My brother's going to run it too tabletop. Since this is still early on and in relaxed mode, it seemed good an opportunity as ever.
If you could set me inactive, thanks.

Good luck everyone,

See you around Baelir ;)

 Sad news, Cloony, but I understand you... Sometimes, I feel myself intrigued to open book and read through, but I still able to hold. This story unwraps slowly, but I like that we are dedicated to staying in character and play.

Enjoy your game... might be you want to return someday, when you feel that you miss my weird elf or Baelir or nice ladies.

Sound off if yer not lormo and still here

[bc lormo is of course obviously still around]

Mosi is still around :)
I think we may be the four of us now.

Monk, Investigator, Cleric, Swashbuckler? Interesting.

What do you all think we can do to step up the posting speed?

I'm trying to do my best. I usually check campaigns 3-4 times per day, but I can post only once or twice, unless it's something short, I can send from my mobile.
Currently, I am bit slow on posting, due to being sick.

I also try to check in the morning and evening everyday.

Sad to see you go Cloony. Have fun otherwise.

I usually check around evenings. I think we can speed things up.

Alrighty, let's get cooking with fire, then!

sorry for being a ghost this week.

I'm striving to join the Foreign Service, and I had an important benchmark due this week.

Y'all let me know if you ever want to pick this up and play again!

I'd like to continue with my current character.
Haven't seen bye-bye post from our current GM, so I don't think game is dead

I am hoping to continue as well!

Sorry about that, been doing school work most of the evenings. Didn't mean to leave you guy hanging.

Happy Easter everyone!

Same to you!

Happy Easter to you all.

Baelir had not post in some time. I think we need to bring in more players. The party needs arcane and frontline fighter. Anything else?

not that springs to mind.

I would like ask for volunteers that would like to pickup existing characters, or flesh out any NPCs we have there. Since it might bring some tension if we see new people on canibal island in the middle of nowhere.

Honestly, let's just rewrite them in over albawar, baelir, and whomever.

I will be extremely difficult and say how every you want to do it is fine with me.

Honestly, I like the idea of them being a rewrite of previous pcs. Having someone play another's pc is not quite as fun as using your own. Of course, it may seem a bit silly, but it would be a more smoother transition.

I apologize the lack of updates. I was planning to get new guys in so I decide put hold on the game up for now. Didn't mean to be this long though.

still around.

Me as well

I am still here!

Oh good, I was worrying about that.

*Waves* Hi everybody!

Greetings and Salutations. And thank you for the invitation!
