[Outpost VIII] PFS2 #6-08 Upon Wheels and Rime (Inactive)

Game Master cmlobue

Feel free to introduce yourselves in the Gameplay thread. The first official post of the game will be on March 2. Please also complete the >SIGN-IN SHEET< add your token, perception and initiative to the >SLIDES<.

4 glyphs
Probably need a level bump; test driving a psychic. Playing this for the first time though I'm currently running 2 tables (1 for Outpost).

Given we're heading towards high tier, I do object to friendly fire (just because he's a new PC and is really squishy)...

so I've only played by post on discord. Is there a user guide I can look out for getting started?

Thank you

FYI I'll be away in nature this weekend, 3/1-3/2 without access to post. I'll return Sunday evening (US/Pacific time) to continue posting (including to kick of Outpost games!).

Looks like 20 CP, so high subtier. Huang Tong gets a level bump, and if anyone has mentor boons, they can benefit from up to two of them. Mentor boons are free and only require 20 reputation with a faction, so pick them up if you are eligible!

Mentorship and PC Level Bumps

To provide low level players a more fun and fair experience, PCs at the lowest allowed to play the adventure (such as a 3rd-level PC playing in a Level 3–6 Scenario) gain a temporary boost when playing in the higher level range called a "Level Bump," to represent the higher-level PCs’ mentorship and support. Apply the following adjustments:

* Increase every DC the PC has by 1.
* Increase the attack modifiers, attack damage, spell damage, saving throw modifiers, skill modifiers, Perception modifiers, and AC of the PC by 1.
* Increase the total hit points of the PC by 10 or by 10%, whichever is higher.

Apply the relevant adjustments to the PC's animal companions, eidolons, and familiars as well. If a value is already increased by applying the adjustment to a PC (such as a familiar's save modifiers and AC), do not increase the value a second time. Remind higher-level PCs to apply any Mentor Boons they might have purchased as well.

Forgot to check in with Gwen! She's here and is fabulous.

Nikma can contribute:

While working with less experienced Pathfinder allies, you provide important insights that keep your less experienced

colleagues safe from harm. For any PCs benefiting from a Level Bump and whose levels are lower than yours, you increase the
Level Bump’s modifier to saving throws to 2.

Normal: A Level Bump increases a PC’s saving throw modifiers by 1.

Special: A PC can only benefit from two mentor boons.

Gwen has the combat mentor boon (+1 to attacks). I believe this includes spell attacks.

Apologies folks. This game slipped my mind. I'll catch up / retcon over the weekend.

EDIT - Level Bump complete; Took Mentor Boons from "Auntie Gwen" and Nikma

You may have noticed that I like spreadsheets wayyyyyy too much.

I understand each of those words individually but they make no sense combined in that way.

I can set up a spreadsheet that will interpret what each word means individually, and in combination. Would that help?

You can only make 1 roll for each camp correct

Correct.

I'm hoping someone who is better at those skill checks can step up and complete this room so will go if I have to hoping next room will have better skill checks for Lan

Dice are killing me want to hero point that but not sure how

Not sure if did that right or did I just get u lucky and roll the same number twice

I will be completely offline this Friday through Monday.

How do you guy create the diamonds you put in front of each action?

Under my name - you'll see the icons. Just go ahead and copy/paste them :)

GM, how many games you running for Paizocon? I saw you sign up for practically all of the PbPs available on Paizo! :)

Running two, because it is the maximum PBP GM slate they offered. I don't do PBD or anything at PaizoCon but specials (and the specials this year were not that exciting), so all my signups are for PF2. I will go back later if they get full and drop a couple so others get a chance.

I believe I owe you some hero points. One for Gwen for talking the goblins down, and one for Lan for the best roll of the chase.

I'll be away in nature next weekend, Friday (4/25) evening to Sunday (4/26) late afternoon, US/Pacific time). I'll have signal but phone posting will be spotty. I'll catch up and resume regular posting Sunday evening.

My group actually caught up with the gobbos, though they had a terrible time with the contractors...

Hero point to Hadrimos for face-tanking everything this mission, Huang Tong for being a fearsome dragon, and Nikma because they will be off in nature while the party faces a rough start to the fight.

Hadrimos is just too drunk to be fearful <<grin>>

I'm assuming or weaopns are drawn. But if not can change my action to drawing sword and shield and raising shield. will still react if Hadrimos is attacked.

Spotty posting is possible... no guarantees before tomorrow evening but let's see.

was my lay on hands not effective was my 2nd action in the frist round should've restored 6 hp feel like I Should be at28 hp and not wounded 1 but could be wrong.

That swing should be 22 i accidentally rolled at map

that strike was against the red guard sorry forgot to add that.

I forgot how this works but I can use my hero point to get rid of the wounded condition right?

No, only to reroll a check or prevent death when you reach your maximum dying value.

Honestly, removing wounded 1 would be a poor use of a hero point unless something strange is going on. The condition just marks what your dying value starts at the next time you get to 0 HP. Save it for if and when your character is actually about to die.

ohh I thought since i went down on a crit that I was at wounded 2

sorry forgot to add that Lan was stowing his shield when Lan said what he said so I have a free arm for the grapple and if that's not a success then definitely want to use a hero point to reroll

Regardless of your previous dying value, your wounded value only increments by 1 when you recover.

Other than your decision on the train, that is all for Upon Wheels and Rime. Please check your information on the >Sign-In Sheet< and, if you want your downtime listed on your chronicle, post it here. Reporting is due on the 12th but I will send it as soon as everyone has confirmed their sign in and we know hoe the team feels about the train ideas.

Thank you all for playing!

Thanks for the game all! Chronicle looks good!

Looks good!

Отчет теперь на сайте и благо разблокировано. Надеюсь, вам понравится!

Chronicle is good! Thanks for the fun game!

Does anyone know if that boon is actually useful?

Edit: I see what you did there, GM!

Thank you for the game

I... don't quite see what you did there :P

Does anyone know if that boon is actually useful?

Depending on the GM, you may be able to handle things in a different way in

On the other hand, my long-running groups like to have a language everybody in the party speaks, but is rare among NPCs, and this would qualify.
