So this week was my turn to be slammed with work. I've got a new class that has twice as many students as I usually have, plus technical problems caused class on Monday to be cancelled, so we have been catching up.
I'll have less time the next four weeks due to heavy grading load, but I'll try to keep things moving.
Please don’t worry and feel stressed! Take your time! :-D
I'll get the responses to the diplomacy checks as soon as I can. Right now, I've got grading to do.
We haven't heard from Gru'Gar and I mostly had to 'bot him through the last fight. If we don't hear from the player soon, I'll leave him behind, although if the player can get back to a place of posting regularly, he can catch up.
I pinged Vinnie and Gru'Gar in Discord.
The game will be on pause until the start of next week. I'm going out of town on Friday until Sunday. It will take me until the start of next week to review the next part of the module, as the area to explore is large and the PCs will have some options for the order to explore it. So I'll need to have all the encounters read and familiar with how the challenges are interconnected. I'll also need to prep some documents with the stats of all the enemies you will encounter and prepare map tokens. I encourage you to RP until then.
Thanks for playing and I hope you can rejoin in time. Good luck.
I'm going to need a little more time to prepare some materials I'll need once the PCs get into the inside of the redoubt. I'll post the general options for the PCs to decide on and will pick up with more details depending on your choice.
Please take all the time you need!
With three votes in favor of the secret passage, I'll have a post in Gameplay up Friday morning. Vinnie can still post a stealth and perception check, although I'll roll it if nothing has been rolled by the time I'm ready to post.
I've read through the module and this should be a very interesting challenge. Not a completely mundane dungeon crawl, this.
My posting time got eaten up spending time with unexpected visitors from out of town this morning. My next chance to post will be this evening or the next morning.
I'm out of time for today, but I'll try to update first chance I get.
I mishandled the one who went invisible. Technically, he would use a move action to get to the door and then would use a move action on his next turn to open the door and another to move through, assuming he is fleeing the battle.
So as not to make Vinnie ret-con, let's assume people can see the door starting to open, giving away his position.
The next three days are going to busy with a variety of tasks that will interrupt my usual posting times. I'm getting a new computer and remodeling the room where I keep the computer. In addition to my school duties, I have a dentist appointment Thursday. I'll try to post sometime in the next few days, but it will not likely be every day.
Paizo was down when I had time to post this morning, so I'm going to have to get caught up tomorrow.
I'm out of time for posting today, so I'll get the next post up either tonight or tomorrow morning.
I'll try to advance the melee today. I'm generally going to be a bit short of time for a day or two. I just got a new computer and need some time to set it up. Tomorrow's my 22nd anniversary so my wife and I will be celebrating a good part of the day.
Thanks. We had a nice afternoon together.
I'm starting to get caught up on posting. I've set up a new computer system and will be working on remodeling the room I use for my work and play. It was a room my wife had a computer in as well for when she was working from home, but she's retired now, so I have the room to myself. Making it into a man-cave that I hope will be very nice.
I'm in the last week of my current term, so I'll be spending a lot of time grading until I'm finished on Friday or Saturday. After that, my schedule will be a lot easier. I'm also in the process of remodeling my man cave study. I've got a new computer and it's working fine.
Reminder: Vinnie and Rook are up. Rook is on vacation but should be back soon. Post when you can.
Let's pause and give Rook's player time to recover. Let us know when feeling better. Vinnie can post if ready.
I've not had much time to post this past week either. I started a new class this week, which kept me busy. The next 4 weeks should allow more time for posting. I'll try to keep things moving.
Please don’t worry! Thanks for GMing!! :-D
Sorry to let things go a week without posting. I've been focused on work, with the end of one term and the start of a new one. Lots to do.
I'll try to get a post up soon. It's too late tonight, but I hope to have time tomorrow morning.
Once you defeat these mercenaries, you have taken out most of the NPCs in the redoubt. There are a few more, but a number of hazards still must be dealt with in exploring what's left. So things will change from melee to other RP encounters that I think will be very interesting.
Sorry to keep you in suspense, but a power outage yesterday stole my gaming time, so I'll have to resolve the last two attacks on the duergars next time my work schedule allows.
Let's skip it. They were outnumbered and would have been defeated even if they had reduced the damage a little with the reflex saves.
Happy Holidays, everyone. I'm going to be doing holiday stuff on Saturday and Sunday but will get some time to post both days. Then I'm on vacation from work until Jan. 4. Should be able to post daily for a while.
There is an opening in another Starfinder Society PBP game just starting. It is the The First Mandate. The GM is therealthom. The campaign name is Opening the Scoured Stars Chapter 1. The plan is to go through a series of the early Scoured Stars modules. Most PCs at present are 3rd level, I think.
I'm at the end of a term, which means grading for the previous term and posting grades, plus prepping for the next class. I think it will be less time-consuming this go-round, but it I will still be a little slow for the next few days.
HiGM, I think that Danduun had a natural 20 on the will save so the dinosaur should not have been affected by the haunt, right? ;-)
