The Haunting of Brute Squad (Inactive)

Game Master ThorGN

I do not get to verbally snipe at the tiefling that way, haha.

I have half a dozen characters, but none of them are currently above level 3.
>.>

You don't have some DM credit you could use to get someone to 5th? =(

Not yet. :(

That's part of why I want to run a lower level scenario next.

You only need one scenario to get you to at least 5th?

Um, no, I'm no where close. I need 5.

Well bummer. Hmm...

Edit: Ashur can run Storming the Diamond Gate for us. It's 3-7 so Brute can play (although he'd be severely underleveled. =/

I have played in Storming the Diamond Gate, unfortunately.

Same here. I don't mind running a PbP either for no-credit/credit as well.

What about In Wrath's Shadow (3-7)?

Played that too, almost all other 3-7s free though.

Hmm, Ashur and I have played most of the other 3-7s other than the ones I've suggested.

It looks like someone is going to have to sit out or play for no credit.

The funny thing is, I went to dragon con and saved all 5-9s for this group. PLayed mostly 3-7s and 7-11s.

Because I am on staff, and spent more time doing work instead of playing, I have played nothing except the Special @ PacifiCon. So I'm open to all 5-9's and 3-7's. But I don't mind playing/running for no credit since I do game IRL as well.

The troublesome ones are going to be me, Erin, and Ashur since I think we're all frequent players.

Our options are a couple people sit out/play for no credit or we break up the characters (not the players) and play different low level characters.

I think you suggested all the 3rd and 4th seasons i have played, haha. I think the only other ones I ran in were gods market gamble and red harvest. I can play a lower level character in a 1-5 if needed.

Is Erin 6th after Haunting?

If she's still 5th you should play her int the 1-5 to help catch her up with the rest of the group.

Has anyone played The God's Market Gamble or The Icebound Outpost? (both 1-5s)

I have GMed both of those, but not played those. I again do have low tiered chracters that can take the players credit. :D

Erin?
Ark?
Yandu?

I have played gamble, good for outpost. Hinojai bumps Erin to 6th. I have characters in every tier though.

I haven't played any of the scenarios you've mentioned.

Still level 7.

It's looking like we're going to play different characters in a 1-5.

Do you have a different character you can play?

I have a 1 and a 2, but the 2 is tied up in another pbp.

1 is an Oracle of Lore, multiclassing into Paladin from 2 onwards.

I wanted to add my thanks to the GM.

I enjoyed it a lot and it allows me to GM one more scenario here that nobody else has played yet.

I can't say I was always happy with Yandu. He seemed a little bit a passenger. He isn't build for DPR and with the group already having most issues covered (and the wrong time zone) I sometimes seemed underpowered.

But it was great to play the gnome again. He hadn't seen any play in > 1 1/2 years. As such if I'm allowed - he would love to come back. I also have enough lower level characters.

I might even be tempted to GM for the group as some stage. I think I the GM is on my list for the Cyphermage Dilemma. I would first need to finish my other PBP PFS game to avoid overload - but that is 70% done.

I have neither played/GMed Wraith Shadow nor Storming the Diamond Gates.
I have GMed Outpost but not played it
Godmarket Gamble - played and GMed

I should have characters for any tier.

Well, we could always wait for The Sanos Abduction that comes out in a couple weeks.

Or I could run something that is 1-5. Has everyone played Rise of the Goblin Guild?

Or we could go old school and do the City of Strangers sequence.

I have not played rise of the goblin guild, I would be good for that as well. I have run and played in both city of strangers scenarios though.

Tanrov Handle Animal: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (17) + 10 = 27

Ark Craft: 1d20 + 8 ⇒ (2) + 8 = 10

I haven't done Rise of the Goblin Guild. I GMed both city of Strangers scenarios ands played the first. I always hoped I would Play part 2 but waited 1 1/2 years until I succumbed and GMed it for my local group.

Chronicles sent.

I've done Rise and City of Strangers. I can run Rise for you guys if you like.

I am good for anything I have not already played, and Rise works for me. Read Erins chronicles wrong too. That was her first game as 5th level.

I have another thought. PFS is really built for varying groups and GMs. This group has been fun but if it does not work to play on with the exact same group, that’s ok. If Tanrov wants to run a higher level adventure because he has played most of them, by all means go ahead and I can bow out. I could then start something at a lower tier and perhaps pull in some new players with some lower level characters from this group. This would allow some of the gaming synergy to continue, if not in the same form as the last session.

Thoughts?

Well I think that the idea was that either me or Tanrov can run a mod so you can play Brute. We can do the 2 games, but I think you should play in one of them. So maybe I can run Rise so you can play and Tanrov can run a higher level mod or something.

I am totally fine playing a lower level character to help you get where you need to be Brute. I just want to continue playing with this group, and eventually revisit our 5-9 crew if possible because everything has been meshing so well.

I like the idea of Ashur running a 1-5 so you can join us for one.

Ah, ok then. Well I have two, and possibly three, characters committed to PBPs right now. Besides that I have a level 3 Fighter/Rogue, and a couple brand new level 1’s.

Oh, and I can play just about anything.

Go ahead and play your fighter/rogue.

Does everyone else have characters in the 4-5 range? I could play up a level and we could still have Erin in the group.

Oh, Ark does not. He just has a level 1.

I have a level 4 fighter/wizard.

I think I remember Thod and Ophelia saying they had characters in every tier.

Ark, do you want to play a pre-gen? I totally understand if you don’t.

I have Erin, a 5th All-Around Pally, a 5th Melee Cleric, and a 3rd Archer Bard, and a 2nd Archer Cleric. Too many 1sts to mention. I also have characters in every tier.

He could play up if he wishes.

Wow, you weren't kidding.

I could also play down I guess, but I already did that once, and Mythral Breasplates are expensive!

They won't buy themselves!

I have no preference as to whether we play up or down. I will just play tier appropriate and try to fill any hole in the party.

I'd probably rather not play a pregen, sorry. Willing to bow out while you fellows have your game, keep me on the list for your next one.

Well if people wish, I can start running Rise of the Goblin Guild at tier 4-5. I just need a few confirmations that they're in.

Yandu is on 14 XP. So he still qualifies.

He and Anya are in if the group takes them.

And having played him after a long hiatus has given me some ideas what to buy to cover a few deficiencies.
