To Rappan Athuk (Inactive)

Game Master brvheart

At 5th lvl according to Lomyldyrs level progression plan in his character sheet he will be taking Craft Wondrous. With that he could craft a Bag of Holding and we wouldn't have to worry encumbrance, having enough sacks to carry loot in etc...We could bring a thousand damn feet of silk rope :P

Our characters are only 2k experience points away from 5th level. We could go back into the nearby dungeon, go down one more level,collect a little more loot, and level up to 5th. Come back to town, Craft a bag of Holding, maybe cloaks of resistance +1 for those that don't have them and then take on Rappan a little better equipped.

Any thoughts on this? I'm good either way.

Vote time

B) take one more quick trip into the mouth. Get to 5th level and have Lomyldyr craft some basic items like a bag of holding, cloaks of resistance etc... And then take on Rappan a little better prepared

B

Mojo will tell whatever you tell him to do. Me, I vote B too.

A in spite of the framing of the question.

B. This will also allow us to gel and refine our tactics as a team before we start the main event.

Aggrammars on vacay so he abstains. I vote B as well. 4 for B, 1 for A

I guess B, back to the Mouth of Doom it is

Sorry Lars I'll try to be more neutral in the framing of my questions

Wishing everyone a happy thanksgiving

Happy Thanks-giving. Will hopefully be on and off over the week.

As DM I obstain.

Go Bears...just go. How to spoil a party in the rain. Feels like the season is just dribbling away now after so much promise.

Sigh.

Yes, go all the way to the play offs:) Well I enjoyed it, especially after the Packers ran up the score last year!

Payback is a ....well you know. I blame Tracey Porter. Lets all hope that the Viks do everyone a favour and blow it too.

Cheers

Marching order? Thoughts? Suggestions?

Point =Mojo
Rank 2=Sorek. Myrick. Lars
Rear=Aggrammar. Lomyldyr

Alternatively take one of the primary meleers from rank 2 and switch them with Lomyldyr so the wizard is more protected in the middle

Lomyldyr is probably as safe in the rear as the second rank. Let's keep with your proposed order.

I am back peoples, and slowly getting back into the pace.

The marching order looks good Sorek/WabbitHuntr :P

Welcome back Aggrammar

You guys, my mother in law passed away a few days ago in her sleep. I have two small girls and a wife struggling with the loss. I am trying to run the house and help with the estate. I haven't signed on for a few days and feel horrible for the disappearance. I hope you will accept my apologies.

My condolences Myrick. I lost my mother last February. Take your time, your family needs you right now. I can bot if necessary when needed.

Sorry to hear that Myrick. It's hard to think about a game when major things are happening IRL. No apologies necessary

You take care, Darren. You know where we are if you need to offload and you guys will be in my prayers. I'm sorry.

Regards
Andy

I'm sorry for your loss Myrick.

My condolences.

I'm very sorry for your loss Myrick - all the best for you and yours.

Apologies for the absence people – my kids managed to get sick both on the same week. It’s been kinda hectic…

No problem Aggy. things are a little slow due to the holidays. hope the kids get better in time for christmas

It is Christmas so I don't expect much until after the holidays. Sorry to hear about kids being sick. It is going around, first my wife got sick now I am.

Well, it seems they are beginning to bounce back (fingers crossed).

And I hope you get well soon also brvheart.

Guys I am loving the game and so I wish you all a happy christmas here and now while I have a small break at work. Its been grand fun so far and long may it continue.

One small point is I wonder if it might not shave a few hours or day or two even off the pace if we let brvheart roll initiative when combat breaks out. Its something I have seen work in many games and might benefit this one?

Obviously if you guys have already hashed this out in the discussion thread then I will understand.

Cheers

I do roll for inits after some time has passed to keep the game moving. Not sure I want to do it for every combat for every game though. Thoughts?

Merry Christmas all!

I agree with the GM rolling inits to expedite combat.

Merry Christmas!!!

When I run games, I have players roll init so I'm sure they are still around. Generally exploration doesn't involve everyone (not all have requisite skills), but combat does involve everyone, so init is the "I'm here" sign I get from my players.

Honestly I don't really see init expediting combat at all. If players are around, combat will be quick. If not, I'd prefer to know before combat started and we hang around hoping someone shows up for their turn. At least if I know they blew off init, I know I have to bot them and then combat can actually proceed.

Working today but can still check in here.

Merry Christmas everyone

Init.... I could see it possibly speeding things up. But I also understand Lars' point. It might be worth trying in this one campaign brvheart so you can test it out and compare it to your other campaigns. But completely up to you

Hoping everyone is having a great holiday season!! It has been crazy on my end, so posting is sparse, and probably will continue so until next week :P

When you get a chance Aggy, we are waiting on your action.

Done ;)

Happy New Year!!!!

Happy New Year everyone!!

Happy New Year to you too.

cheers

Happy new year everyone. . Wishing everyone nothing but natural 20's this year IRL

Hell, please give me some rolls in the double digits this year and I'll be happy.

Ok wake up everyone...no more new years eve hangover excuses. At this rate Orcus is going to die of old age rather than by our hands ;p Being serious now ;) hope the holidays treated everyone well and that any new years hangovers disappear by tomorrow

I'm here lad.

I just downloaded the pdf for the Borderland Provinces which is a sourcebook on the area you are in. I posted up a new map. What this means is there are towns and cities closer to where you are at that I have information on what is there for getting supplies, weapons, magic, etc.

Sweeeeet. It will be nice to have some options other than the Ferry for selling and purchasing goods and items.

I signed up for the same kickstarter, brvheart. Do you want me to NOT read it? I'm on page two before I fell asleep yesterday evening.

No hangovers here and raring to go.

Cheers

I just needs ma faith lads!"

As long as you can keep player knowledge separate French Wolf I don't have an issue with it.

Not a problem, especially playing Mojo.

Hi people. Just to let you know work has thrown a curve ball straight at my face... I'm at the airport right now, and will be travelling until Sunday next week.

I should have internet access, but am anticipating a veeeeeeery busy week. I'll try to stay up to date, but if not just bot me as needed.

Could be worse Aggrammar it could have been a 99mph fastball to the face ;p

not how you want to start the new year. . Good luck. And make sure to wear your batters helmet. We can't afford to lose our Cleric in this undead filled dungeon.

@brvheart Aggy is traveling... Can we have him hold his action this round so the Zombies and then Myrick can act to finish this round?

just to keep things rollin. I think we have this fight under control :)
