Hello B Team!

Are you ready for an adventure?


Female GC Half-Elf Sorcerer (Wild Magic) | HP: 26/58 | AC: 16 | Acr: +6 Dec: +8 Perc: +3 Pers: +8 Perf: +8 Ste: +6 | Saves: S -1, D 3, C 6, I -1, W 0, Ch 8 | Init: +3 adv? | PP: 13 | Spd: 30' | Insp: No | HD: 8/8 | Spell DC: 16 | Spells: 1 (4/4) 2 (3/3) 3 (1/3) 4 (2/2) | SorcPo: 5/8 | ToC: Y | Status: Normal

Yes, very! I plan to throw out some twin hastes, etc. Who can make the most of that extra attack?

Gonna be fun! Allie is an accident-prone goof! I'll try not to kill us all!


Ready!

Corso is an obnoxious bastard son who tends to over-compensates for his low status.

Bookrat, can you tell us a bit more what type of adventure you had in mind? What are your goals for this set, beyond exploring the efficiency of under-rated class options?


M Rattus norvegicus

I haven't picked an adventure for this level yet. I do have a couple of adventures to choose from for the higher level sets, but for the 5-10 range, I still need to find something. I'm hoping to start later this week, after all our logistics are done.

In my experience, it takes a few days for everyone to be on the same page. We still have a few that need to update their profiles to match the format.

Speaking of logistics, I'd like everyone to update their tagline to the following format.

Race Field: Saves: S3, D1, C3, W1*, I4*, Ch0 | Init +2 | PP: 9 | Spd: 25' | Insp: No |

Class/Level Field: HD: 3/3 | Spell DC: 12 | Spells: 1 (4/4), 2 (2/2) | Status: Normal

Gender Field: Male GC Mtn Dwarf Wizard (Artificer) 2 | HP: 16/16 | AC: 13 | Arc +4, Ath +5, His +4, Inv +4 |

Replace everything with your own stuff. Remove what you don't use, and if you have any extra limited use abilities, add them in.

Howdy. Looking forward to game. Need to flesh his backstory to ensure a strong hook into the intro.

Cheers


M Rattus norvegicus

Don't worry too much about the back stories. I'll give you hooks into the adventures, or you can make up your own once you know the opening.

Perfect. My plan was the latter.

Question: did your magic items come from your list of relatively useless items?

Cheers


M Rattus norvegicus

Lol!

No, what I did was look at the DMG list and hand out one permanent item that I thought would be useful to your class and one interesting consumable. These items were contrained by the 4d10, which I used to mix and match to give me a few options to pick from.

So 1, 2, 3, 4 could be 21 and 34 or 42 and 23 or any combination.

I think the only permanent magic item that wasn't as useful as the rest was the goggles of night, which I gave to Allie before I realized she would be a Half-Elf with dark vision.

Think I'm good to go! I put "adv?" with my init to remind you I'll use my tides of chaos feature on that when I can.

Haha. NP on the goggles of night. Like you said, they're not entirely useless to me. But still happy to trade anyone. XD

Just realized javelins of lightning are not one use items anymore.

Ah age.

Bookrat, it looks like no one wants the goggles of night so I'll trade them out for some universal solvent. Woohoo!! Shenanigans! XD I'll be happy if I can find any excuse to use it.

Also, did we specify anything about posting frequency? I'd assume either once per day or once per weekday but I'd prefer to hear from you than guess. XP


Game Map DCI# 4318637857

I’m usually able to post multiple times a day. Generally it just takes me forever on creating a character lol.

Pure Blood Trickery Cleric or a Firbolg. The pure Blood seems an awesome fit but the stats are far from ideal.

Ok guys, I've got my first module. It had lots of good reviews. Give me another day to read it and we'll get started once everyone checks in.

We're at 6/7 players who've checked in so far.


Any hint on what the module is?


M Rattus norvegicus

It's an AL module that I think was made for a convention or some event.

Sorry; a bit busy this week. Swim lessons for this week and next for the kids. Gymnastics on Wednesdays (today, so they have both back to back). A fire just started about five miles from my house, so I had to pack emergency luggage.

Tomorrow is my son's assessment for kindergarten, and he starts school next week.

I'm going to aim for tomorrow to start the game, if I'm unable to make an opening post tonight after I put them to bed.


Game Map DCI# 4318637857

Yeah I didn’t get my profile up last night due to the sight going down. I’ll get it up here in the next couple hours


Good luck for kindergarten!


M Rattus norvegicus

The first gameplay post has been made. Please join in!

We have four players who've checked into the gameplay thread, five players with complete characters, and six players who've checked in to either the gameplay or discussion thread.

I haven't heard anything from our Purple Dragon Knight. I'll PM him to see if he's still interested.

Sorry been busy but will get proper character sheet done tomorrow (day off) and be all ready to go!!


M Rattus norvegicus

How's everyone doing? Are we still interested in playing this game - or is everyone focused on the playtest instead? :P

Sorry. I’ve had two unexpected 14 hour work days. And I want the first post to be longer than a push, so I haven’t been able to finish it.

Tonight is my target


Just posted. I was leaving some room for the rest of the group to introduce themselves.


Female GC Half-Elf Sorcerer (Wild Magic) | HP: 26/58 | AC: 16 | Acr: +6 Dec: +8 Perc: +3 Pers: +8 Perf: +8 Ste: +6 | Saves: S -1, D 3, C 6, I -1, W 0, Ch 8 | Init: +3 adv? | PP: 13 | Spd: 30' | Insp: No | HD: 8/8 | Spell DC: 16 | Spells: 1 (4/4) 2 (3/3) 3 (1/3) 4 (2/2) | SorcPo: 5/8 | ToC: Y | Status: Normal

You know me. I'm still in it.


M Rattus norvegicus

It's all good! Just wanted to ensure we have interest. We have already had one person drop with zero notice and zero response to PMs.

Our PDK is no longer with us, as best I can tell. He's still active on the boards, but has ignored my inquiries.


Game Map DCI# 4318637857

I’m dead in the play test so no focus problems there lol. I’m still in I will get a second I’ll get a second post up. I’m at Gencon till tomorrow though so posting will be lite


M Rattus norvegicus

No worries Grey. Thanks for the heads up!

I'm waiting for everyone to introduce before getting into the game officially, because this module opens with combat. I want everyone to be ready first.

Plus, it gives me some time to finish up a major combat with my other game. :)


M Rattus norvegicus

Ok, I guess we're down to five players. I'll start working on the start of the module.


M Rattus norvegicus

Corso, Edlethron - can you guys update your tag lines? Makes it easier for me to see the status of your PC as well as dictate the results of actions.

I’m what way? It has consumables out front and key stats behind the spoiler to avoid clutter.

How do you prefer it?


M Rattus norvegicus

Ed, I missed your spoiler and thought you only had those 4 listings. Your method works for me.

If you could also put your speed in there, so when you move I know how much to move you on the map. The other option is for you to simply tell me exactly how far you move each time.

Cool. As you wish. I mentioned Ed's speed in the post, because its abnormal, but I'll added it to his stats, too

cheers

I embrace the challenge of a party of 5. AL adventures are too easy already! XD We need a real chance to show what these archetypes can do!


Long weekend here. I’ll do my best to update, but it might take a day or two.


Game Map DCI# 4318637857

Lol, we lost both of our frontliners.


M Rattus norvegicus

I'll also have to update the map. The battle is a little different with only five players vs 6 or 7.

Wow! 1600 lbs of road? What kind of road? Why? How did you have the resources/authorization to do that? I happen to know you don't work in construction. XD

We have a private road, and we were repairing potholes and road degradation. 1600 lbs feels like a lot on my muscles, but really it isn't that much of road. Each bag of blacktop batch was 60 lbs, and we used 27 bags this weekend.

And by "we," I mean me. As my wife mostly just watched the kids and use the road crack filler to help prevent future potholes from forming.

God I'm sore, today. But at least I can type. Saturday night, my hands were shaking I was so tired.

Hey bookrat

Can Edlethron move 50 and line up the Wight that he hit and one of the new Wight’s for a lightning bolt javelin?

Thanks


M Rattus norvegicus

Absolutely.


M Rattus norvegicus

I'll make an update later today.


M Rattus norvegicus

Sorry for the delay. I had planned on posting during my lunch break, but my wife just got rear ended, and the guy fled the scene. So I'm dealing with that instead. I'll get a post up after work.

Crazy world... Hope wife's feeling ok.


Sorry to hear. Same, hope she’s not injured.


M Rattus norvegicus

Due to site issues today, I'll wait until tomorrow to update the game. And bot instead of skip anyone who hasn't been able to post.


Thanks. Yes, the site was closed down most of the time I usually check for updates.


Please note that I'm going on vacation starting tomorrow, with much fewer opportunities to post reliably. Please bot me as needed.
