Happy New Years as well. I've been down with a wicked cold so my brain capacity has been pretty light.
Happy new year from Australia. We get it before most of you. :)
Happy New Year.
Don't abandon all hope just yet! While my scanner has failed me, I plan on crafting a map or two tonight and/or tomorrow. Post will follow.
I'm being patient, and honestly the slow pace is nice for me. 2019 has started with a bang. I've been sick, and my dog had a major health issue this week. Two different vets and a major surgery later she's home.
I've been a very bad combination of busy and lazy the past few days. New plan is to have the map and a post up by Thursday.
I also forgot to mention that I'll be using Roll 20 for maps and combats. Here's a link to the Redroof Rebels game there. Feel free to visit and maybe leave a brief note in the chat so I can match user names to PCs.
Yeesh, what a mess I made. I said 'encounter mode' in one of my posts when I meant to say 'exploration mode.' As a result, some of your Perception checks may have been ignored. I rolled Perception for initiative for everyone in the spoiler.
Also, I placed Varius and Felitcia a bit further ahead on the map, since Mona and Basil's exploration mode activity (Search) required them to move at half speed. I'm not sure how this is supposed to reconcile, as after those using Search have traveled a mile, they'll be a mile behind those who chose to Wander. Seems odd.
Anyhow, if you feel the party should be grouped closer together, feel free to adjust your token on the Roll20 map. Here's the LINK again. I'll be adding this link below my alias soon.
apologies, I have had net problems. Back now
Good to have you back!
Three notes:
- It seems pretty standard that AoOs are triggered by order of posting in first edition where they're universal. I could have posted two seconds after Basil to the same effect.
- GMPC me or punish me with a held action if I fail to post, particularly since I was active in another game ;) I feel awful for holding up the game that long! Even if I disagree with your GMPC action, that's my fault for failing to post daily.
- I'm going to include the nimble dodge reaction in my tagline so I don't forget it. Use it automatically against the first attack against me unless there are multiple opponents.
Are folks still up for pushing ahead with this game if I rededicate myself to running it? I've got to admit, my brain's having trouble separating Playtest rules from PF 1st edition rules, and the placement of rules in the book doesn't seem very instinctual to me when I try to look something up.
If folks want to press on, I'll likely make a game post later tonight or tomorrow.
BTW...Varius is still up. ;)
I'm actually pretty ambivalent about this right now. I hate that I said I was ready to run, and now I'm like meh. I think it's the fluidity of the rules, and me not being sure if I want to learn a new system.
If the rest of the group wishes to continue, I will stick with it.
Am I not getting notifications on the main thread? Gah!
Anyways I'm still interested even if I was holding things up.
I'm still good for now too.
Sorry for the slow posting. I've had the week from heck. Everything is fine. I've just been busy at work and busy with personal life. Usually one is busy and the other isn't so bad, and I can keep up. Not this week.
After Sunday it should get better.
