That's on my list of 'want to play' scenarios.

Bronze House Reprisal is a tough one to get right as a GM, and the end really doesn’t work. The rest of it can be interesting though.

So, I’m trying to figure out if it is worth upgrading my Cloak of Protection to +2 since I’m coming into this on the low end of the curve. If there is a better option, please tell me.

How do y'all want your ships arranged? Side by side, like I have in Slide 3? Something else?

We probably need to be difficult - a warship has 10 Light Ballistae either side (Port and starboard) so unless we intend broadsiding each other we probably want to be in a line.

Weapons Up to 20 Large direct-fire siege engines in banks of 10 are positioned on the port and starboard sides of the ship, or up to six Huge direct-fire siege engines in banks of three on the ship’s port and starboard sides. These siege engines may only fire out the sides of the ship that they are positioned on and cannot fire toward the forward or aft sides of the ship. These siege engines cannot be used while the warship is being rowed. For an additional 8,000 gp, a warship can be fitted with a ram and castles with firing platforms fore, aft, and amidships. Each of these firing platforms can hold a single Large or Huge direct-fire or indirect-fire siege engine. Siege engines on the fore and aft firing platforms can be swiveled to fire out the sides of the ship or either forward or aft, depending on their position. A siege engine on the amidships can be swiveled to fire out either side of the ship.

That's fine! I've got the ships arranged single file now. Please place your tokens on the ships!

Daffy is happy to try to assist someone with the sphere, using his +7 Knowledge (arcana)

Very sadly, Mike has had to drop out of this game, but hopefully, we can play together another time!
I think we'll be fine to move forward with five players.
You know what? Since there are two ships, I will allow two separate Profession (sailor) rolls. That seems reasonable.

What is the best way for me to be showing HP?
When I went into rage, I did not change my maximum hit points based on the Con increase. While raging my max hit points are 69. Dropping out of rage puts them back to 54.
What would cause the least confusion?

Thank you for running, Kate!
Thank you to all the other players too, I had a lot of fun.
Guess I should think about putting one of those shark tooth amulets on Sarq’s shopping list. Allow him to use his Earthbreaker the next time he travels with Nixie.
