Hi everyone I look forward to playing with you :D
Please check in with your characters when you get a chance. This will be the OOC thread for the campaign.
If everyone could also make it easy for me to access your vital stats, such as HP, initiative and AC that would be great.

If anyone would like to change their characters in anyway please feel free to do so, just let me know before hand ;)
I have an extensive excel sheet for the character, but obviously didn't post every ounce of crunch ... let me know if you need a better organized alias for Gilly, and I'll be happy to provide more info!
I understand about the crunch stuff, takes a little while to enter everything into the alias. It would be nice to get Vital stats into a spoiler at the top or bottom of the page if you don't mind. Just makes things a little easier for me when combat occurs etc. :)
Just checking in and ready to hit the ground running. Thanks Shamlyn for the opportunity.
Got the first Gameplay post up :) Feel free to post when you want :D
Hello, everyone! Thanks for the invitation, Shamlyn - looking forward to the game!
Hooray! Gonna smite some evil ass
Should be interesting with no arcane type in the group. 2 heavy hitters, 1 divine and 1 skill/ranged. Is this going to be a concern at all?
It'd be incredibly useful to have, but I think we'll be fine.
Hmmmmm, could be bad late game, but we should be fine until mid levels.
You guys will be perfectly fine... ;)
I think sometimes it creates more opportunities for role playing and solving problems where you can't find an immediate solution :P
Oops wrong alias.. That was me.
Kaedric, are your there? Just wondering...?
Oh...
I didn't open the Gameplay tab, I thought it'd just alert me
edit: I posted, sorry about that guys.
I was just wondering how you guys would like to run combat? if anyone has any good ideas that help quicken the pace that would be great.
I was also thinking of putting maps on a site called Roll20 which is basically a VTT that allows you to move your characters on the actual map etc. Would you guys be interested in something like that?
I'm in another campaign that does initiative in 'groups.' This is specifically for PbP obviously, but basically whenever a set of players rolls a higher initiative than one or more enemies, you put them in Group A. Those players can post in any order. Then any enemies after Group A make up Group B and so on. So here's an example just in case I'm explaining this poorly:
Mungo, Goblins, Gilly, Davorik, Kaedric, Goblins
Group A:
Mungo
Group B:
Some goblins
Group C:
Gilly
Davorik
Kaedric
Group D:
Some goblins
Mungo posts. Then a few high rolling goblins. Then when it's C's turn, let's say Davorik gets on before Gilly. Davorik can go ahead and post since he's part of Group C. Kaedric might get on next and post, then Gilly. But it won't matter as they are all in the same group.
This way makes combat WAY faster for PbP.
Kaedric screams in Celestial, thus the goblins laugh as Kaedric runs in screaming, "BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH!"
Group init works for me. Roll20 doesn't work for me since I use an iPad 90% of the time but I can go by descriptions only if someone else moves me.
I like the group init, sounds good!
I always think of Celestial like the adults in Peanuts. "Wha whaaaa. Wha Wha whaa."
I am fine with you rolling init also to speed things along. Modifier for Davorik is +3.
I have posted links for maps on Roll20, Dropbox and Google docs.
Great to get feedback on which one works best for you guys :) Hopefully one will be viable for you Davorik.
Goodle docs worked well once i opened a new browser. Sorry about hte briefness of the post, I generally try to get a more eloquent description of my actions, but I was at work for 15hours and couldnt' think too much other than to just post the actions. Will improve greatly next time.
Thats no problem, don't worry about it :-) I am the same lately if I am honest :P
I am glad google docs managed to work. I wasn't sure what to use that worked well with Apple.
Kaedric feel free to post your surprise round action when you feel like it :-)
Can I get one more map update before I post? Thank you!
Sorry to do this guys but my life has suddenly become very busy and I just don't have the time to run this game anymore. Thanks for giving me a chance though your all fantastic roleplayers. Beat of luck for the future
Sorry to hear that, Shamlyn! I wish you the best of luck with your life stuff!
