Too many. At least in PbP people don't need to wait around for other people to act in real time. "Ya no problem, roll up those 6 attacks with a handful of dice in each. I'll be over here eating pizza."

Add in the fact that most of the PCs had not been played in months and the learning curve was in place. Hopefully we've knocked the rust off in time for PaizoCon and the other Seeker games we are planning.

I ran rasping rebirth a few weeks ago and its an awesome scenario as well.lots of great monsters and some incredibly epic choices to be made. We managed to make it through in about 5.5 hours, but the rust is real.


My table will likely have a bit easier time since they won’t be doing Hard mode. I played it under that and man were we outnumbered.

I’ll post an update this evening after my Skull and Shackles game to move us to the next day.

Busy with Rise of the Runelords today and On Sevenfingers Sails tomorrow, but I will be checking in when I can.


Seeker tier part two tonight, so I will try to update tomorrow if everyone is ready for the long night.

I've never played a character that uses guns so this question is based on ignorance:

Do they have loads with different materials? IE silver, cold iron, adamantine, etc?

If so you may want to try them out for the fight. I don't think anyone made the check to find out the DR type?

They can. Thalia hasn't invested in them though, relying instead upon her evocations to get around DR.

It is DR/Magic, so I'm good.

Have fun at the PowWow


Total game time over two sessions = nine hours. Update to come eventually, maybe after a nap.


Okay, apologies for compressing the night down more than previously done. Trying to move us along and that was a bit messy. You guys would have a round to prepare, so everyone is at least on their feet. Chance, I'm not sure if you have any preparations that would adjust things, but let me know. It pretty much gets an auto surprise round since you can't spot it, so it moved through the wall and no longer benefits from concealment. It won initiative and had a full attack on Chance since it couldn't reach Stuinvolk. I'll be around today to answer any questions and should be able to update things as the round progresses.

Nope. It would have gotten me.
My first action would probably have been to cast bless, which wouldn't have saved me from the pounce.

If we have a round to prepare, can I have used my wand of mage armor in that round? I'm shooting it once it's in sight regardless.


You could, but that would mean you were not able to stand up before initiative.

No worries, I'll be down the 4 AC - I suspect it wouldn't make much difference anyway. I need to get a mithral chain shirt for her. She doesn't use Wizard spells much anyway, so the spell fail chance won't make much difference.

Sorry for the lack of posts. Both of my kids are sick. I'm not sure if I'll have a chance to post tomorrow.


No worries, I will be more proactive in botting Kenza's actions as needed. Is anyone under a time crunch on this scenario? I expect the second half to move quicker but it would be good to know if anyone needs their character in anything coming up. (PaizoCon being a big concern.)

For a time I was playing or GM'ing 5 or 6 games a month. I also used to have a lot of extra time at work and some of them were made primarily to understand how the classes functioned and got little, if any, play. Five were for Core and have never been played, since the only reason I built them was that I felt I needed to have Core characters as a store coordinator in order to facilitate Core play at that store.

No problem, I will be busy seeing a certain endgame tonight, then headed to Disneyland tomorrow night. Will update when I can.

So, fun behind the scenes fact, for each failed check on the skill challenge, you would have had to face two of the drones. More importantly, the hive would have been on alert, adding two more drones to the final fight per encounter. So it could have been TEN drones with the queen. :)

I'll also look at faction goals and I believe I purchased my endure elements wand with PP for this scenario if you wanted to note that on my sheet as well.


I tried to double check my entries against the info on the Google slide, but I caught myself mixing up Kenza and Lady Mae's numbers once already. I'll be able to correct any errors after work tonight.

antitoxin x2
antiplague x2

I've updated the table to reflect my true $$ at the end of the adventure: 430.4g and 6PP.

*As far as faction goals: Apparently I never pursued them on Mae so I won't start now. She's just not into politics I guess.


Sheet looks good. Thanks much for GM'ing for us TOZ. Much fun was had!

random aside about gaming@TOZ:

I had actually tried to go to one of your AZ game days in Jan of 2018 when I was out in Phoenix training folks for a week, but ended up going to the wrong game store - apparently they had two locations and I went to the wrong one. Glad to have gotten to game with you via pbp, however, was much fun!

Lady Mae's chronicle should be good now. Not sure what is wrong with the strikethrough, maybe try a different viewer?

Tim:
Yeah, we've had some miscommunication with that in the past. Feel free to message me directly if you're back in town in the future. Our attendance is down and I stepped back from running to give others the chance, but I'm hoping to see a return to form once 2E launches. Of course, I will still be offering 1E to those that need to finish their checklist. :)

Thanks for running. Was a fun table. Just curious, does the Amberhollow count as an artifact? Can be minor - just wondering if I can check that box off on my DA faction card. If not, I'll be recruiting Stuinvolk to the Dark Archive :-)
