Right, hope all is well!
Apoligies. A little different, I finally got back to work. I should be posting regular from now. Thanks for your patience.
Now, as to Wilrin, it looks like he has ghosted. He hasn't replied to my PM. So options, rerecruit or not worry about it.
Welcome back @chill.
Shame about Wilrin. IMO, since we had multiple folks submit for a chance to play, I would offer to the runner up a chance to join.
break break
for the game, Ungor is going to want to push faster now that his total buff game is on (the next 7 mins of game time.). Then he wouldn't argue with discussions to withdraw and recoup. :)
Chill's not pining for the Fjords! Excellent!
WRT Wilrin, that's... annoying. I'd perhaps start recruiting, but take your time about it. I don't know where we will next have an opportunity to change a PC... Options are either a) Pull what we did with Fergus: Bot Wilrin (either Chill or one of us), and write him out at the next opportunity (or kill him) b) as part of the recruitment, offer someone the option to join immediately, if they took over the Wilrin PC. Another thing to note is that so far, we haven't needed the extra PC, and smaller parties are easier for the GM (IMO).
Pining for the Fjords? Pining for the Fjords? Joined the choir invisible. An EX Dm. Not likely, cobber.
:D
We have now achieved this campaigns required monty python quote
:D
hehe
so the alarm goes off...6 mins and 30 seconds until the raid should be done? :)
Chill, this just occured to me.
Looking at the map, are you sure we are working with a 5x5 square for the grid, and not 10 x10? Would make these hallways and bed and so forth a lot more appropriately size for 10' tall Hill Giants ...
I wouldn't change anything this fight, but after we are done with these ogres...
So, are we changing the scale? It does change the tactics.
Message to Garcia!!!

WTF?
A book, read by quite a few Marine types.
There is a long standing debate about the book.
option 1--It is meant to inspire people to take action with only a minimal set of guidance.
option 2--It is an example of someone who doesn't ask enough questions to get the full picture before they go off and do something inefficient.
So I jabbed at BH via text that he was taking too long to decide what to do; chiding him with option 1 above. :) even though I'm an option 2 person.
Plus, the book never tells you what the damn "message" is!!!
I would posit that virtually every officer in the United States Marine Corps has read this book. It's a very quick read, with pretty large font, otherwise most Marines couldn't read and understand it.
Okay, I have rescaled the map. Check it out, and let me know if there are issues.
ok. moved Ungor based on the ogre died on the first hit? if not, then I can move him back to the kill position.

Looks good to me
we seem to have lost our gnome, so we need to get another character if you want. I have been contacted by someone who has offered a fighter type. Are you all interested?
Gnomes are a dime a dozen in some parts.
I'll be out of town from today until Tuesday. Don't get killed before I return.

We'll let you take point for this frontal assault...

Well, a good bladesman is always an addition... what have we got?
No problem, I'll ask him to join
I thought you guys were talking about me for a minute. :) I was just sitting tight in that back room waiting for an opportunity. Then I remember there was another Gnome and he had left. :D
I was runner-up in your last recruitment. I've been occasionally checking in on these games and I saw that Wilrin disappeared, so I reached out to chillblame.
Welcome Aboard. :D
Welcome Therbin!
and @GM I'm good with baleful transmogrification. "Hey look! our bug riding gnome just turned into a dwarf!!" :)
Thanks for the invite. Let me know how you want to do the intro.
Dwarves smell!
Harsh, bro. :)
Therbin, I am going to write you in, though it may take a little while. I also have to write Wilrin out. I will PM you with details.
Therbin grabs the end of his beard and holds it to his nose, inhaling deeply. "Yep, it's called sweat. It's what happens when you work hard either in the mines, at the forge, or on the battle field. I wouldn't expect a halfling to know anything about that," he says with a wink.
"Bah!! We have a huge bear that rarely transforms into human form. I'm pretty sure I win the smelly competition." Ungor gives a big teethy grin.
:D
"Brother Hawthorne double moves into position."
Can't you make a charge out of that & Sneak attack?
Vakmu PM'd me this, but I figured I'd answer it in the open.
"No."
You must have a clear path toward the opponent, and nothing can hinder your movement (such as difficult terrain or obstacles). You must move to the closest space from which you can attack the opponent. If this space is occupied or otherwise blocked, you can’t charge. If any line from your starting space to the ending space passes through a square that blocks movement, slows movement, or contains a creature (even an ally), you can’t charge.
If you don’t have line of sight to the opponent at the start of your turn, you can’t charge that opponent.
For those reasons in these two quotations, and specifically what I have bolded, I cannot charge the giant.
At the beginning of the turn, I was on the same row as the giant, with a wall between us (no line of sight), and an 800lb bear-PC also between me and the door (contains a creature (even an ally)).
I have missed a couple of spells proper effects, so I am going to change my format a bit. I will post up all current spell effects when I post. This is just an information thingy and allows the party and me to see what is currently ticking over long posts. Just the duration spells, instantaneous ones are not necessary to track by me, except there effect.
If I have missed a spell please let me know, and I will add it.
I will also post up the monsters HP and AC for the party to see. This can allow for dramatic role-play if you want.
I am also going to increase the frequency of my posting to once a day at least. I will be a bit easy on that so everyone is on board for a week or so, so we can all catch up.
Good to know @chill...do you want just party spells or individuals as well?
Probably best if all spells are listed, but only if they do something like impose a miss chance, or require a save. Don't worry about AC boosters, buffs in general and so on
@Vakmu, I cannot find the spell Silk string Snare. Can you post it up?

It isn't a spell, it's a hex, Silk String Snare (you'll have to scroll down...).
OK then she made the save, but it is good to know. Nice hex.
Silkstring Snare (Su) (Legacy of the First World pg. 17): The shaman causes ribbons of spider silk to erupt from the ground beneath a single creature. The target must succeed at a Reflex save or be entangled and anchored in place. The foe can escape the silk as a standard action with a successful Escape Artist or Strength check at the same DC, or by dealing an amount of damage to the silk equal to double the shaman’s class level (the silk has hardness 0). This hex lasts a number of rounds equal to 3 + the shaman’s Wisdom modifier. A creature affected by this hex cannot be affected by it again for 24 hours.
Just for my info
OK then she made the save, but it is good to know. Nice hex.
It's biggest selling point is the reflex save; most hexes target Will, and then fortitude... BTW, what is the light level inside the steading? I have Enveloping Void too ...
The lighting is adequate, with many burning torches.
Rommin, I plan on fighting the Ogre right here versus in the hallway. not squeezing is better for my AC :)

Yeah, but with cover from the corner is a lot better for hers - you missed with a roll of 17 last round...
Depending where Hawthorne moves, she might move forward to get at me (s&*$!), or a better shot at you. Or she might just try to squish Brother H.
