w007!

I'm assuming that we have reference to that and it's not need to know.
I'll use the one in my DMG but promise I'll keep away from all the other exciting info in there re fallcrest.

You can reference this map whenever you want. I'd prefer it if people weren't hanging around the back of the DMG. The map in there has more information on it, and I haven't decided how to handle it yet.

Sweet! I'm excited Ghetto.

re A'loran's post ... ROFL :^D

I second mittean - character interactions are fun and funny already.
oh yeah and the draconic traslator that I'm using so far is http://draconic.twilightrealm.com
but I'll obviously translate anything of importance as I go


Male (probably) Human (just) commoner 3

I love the translator. Thanks a lot for finding that! I also read the post about the Draconic battle phrases, I will definitely use those and if I think of better ones I will let you know.

I can't see the map at the moment, it says that the site is down for maintenance, is this just me?

Cool thanks ... translator is a bit of fun ... I wasn't to look up more on the specific linguistics of Draconic, It's inspired me to dig ou tmy French and Italian language CDs :^D

I'm getting the map loading now ... if you need I can email you one or their are 1billion copies of the Nentir Vale map on the net or DMG pg 206 (still squinting so I don't read the text Ghetto).

fingers still crossed for 1st battle at Kava's mid AC and wreckingball build


Male (probably) Human (just) commoner 3

No, it's ok, it seems to be working now. :-)

When I'm bored, I'll probably fiddle around with it and see what it resembles most. My best guess would be a fictional yet actual language, like Tolkein's Elven or Klingon

Kava just made a comment on the other board and I was thinking the same thing. When it comes down to ID'ing things will you check to see if anyone with the correct skills knows anything or do we have to inquire?

Inquire. In 4E everyone has every skill, but not everyone's character cares.


M half-orc Dungeon Master lvl 18

Don't forget everyone starts with one action point that can be used to gain an extra action. (At my face to face games, these are the one thing that everybody forgot to use.)


I'm not sure where I am in this combat initiative. :)


Male (probably) Human (just) commoner 3

Do we add the post when it's our turn or would you prefer us, just to post our action when we can and for it to be dealt when it's our initiative?

Liberty's Edge

male half fiend half dragon half orc half elf and TWICE the man for it! bard 6 scientist 5

All halflings look like children to Kava and Demon. It's an honest mistake ;^)
Actually it was a rumor Kava started in her post - motherly instinct I guess.

------
re init - I think it might be but I'm a bit wierded out re the surprise round. It looked like everyone before me got a half round then it was GAME ON and from me on it was a full round. I'm new to 4E so forgive my ineptitude and 1 billion questions.

the order so far ...
kobolds, Anmuspi, the Demon,
Kava, A'loran, Brianna, Madresh.

cheers :^D


M half-orc Dungeon Master lvl 18

The initiative order looks like this:

Kava - 18
A'loran - 17
Brianna - 16
Madresh - 12
Kobolds - 9
Anmuspi - 7
Demon - 4

At the start of the encounter, only Anmuspi, Demon, andd the kobolds were aware of other combatants. That's why there was a surprise round (PH p.267) and that's why the order started with the kobolds.

As long as your actions don't hinge on anybody else's (including the enemies') you may post your intended actions out of order to save time.

sweet...that makes loads of sense thanks ghetto.
the ones with the best perceptions had the worst init.


Male (probably) Human (just) commoner 3

Did Brianna or A'loran's attacks bloody either of the kobolds? If not, it's going to take a while to drop these guys...

Nope, I'll try to let you know if a creature is bloodied.

the freaky little cowards K2 and K6 ran away while adjacent to us.
Normally they would provoke OpAtks doing so but I seem to remember something about shifting when you miss re; either them or goblins or something. Is that what those little buggers are doing (a cool monster power) or does it seem to be the standard shift and move that we could do.

Shifting is a move action, but kobolds get to shift as a minor action. So, they are taking an attack, a move, and minor (shift). Your characters could attack and shift or move and shift, but not all three.

That's how they're attacking and retreating.

Kava Divine Challenges K3 (minor; adjacent)

and Valiant Strikes K4 (+6+2 for adjacent enemies vs AC) with Hvy Flail

You'll have to forgive me since it's not my character, but I didn't think that's how divine challenge worked. I thought divine challenge meant you had to attack the one that you challenged or you lose the challenge. (PHB p91) meaning that if you're challenging K3 you probably should be attacking K3 or vice versa.

it says "you must engage the target. To engage the target you have to attack OR end you turn adjacent to the foe"

I see that as, as a defender I need to be able to pull multiple enemies ... in this case K3 off Brianna and give a sound thrashing too K3

thanks for the tips though ... keep them comming :^)


Yes! Keep tiny halflings safe! It's good karma! :)

I'm going to side with Prankster on this. As long as you end your turn next to the mark, it's good.

ah, oops, I just read what a wanted to read clearly. I just find the image amusing of a giant reptillian holy knight going "By bahamut's wrath I challenge you!"...then striking the other ememy next to him.

male half fiend half dragon half orc half elf and TWICE the man for it! bard 6 scientist 5

I've got this silly image of me holding one kobold and punching him in the face while saying to his friend "So does this make you mad?"


Male (probably) Human (just) commoner 3

lol indeed. You're divine challenge to one kobold while training to forcibly remove the brains from the skull of the other one , reminds me of the lyrics "We come in peace, shoot to kill, shoot to kill, shoot to kill!" :)

HAHA ... Star Treckin' (I rolled a 20 on my Knowledge(history/nerd) check). Paladin DivChallenge is more of a majik compulsion to hit the shiny thing or bad stuff might happen though.

Madresh charges more than my VISA card :^D

Well done pasting K5; the teams doing great. I just have to work on my aim.

It's been over a day since Mitteon/Demon posted, and I know he's having internet issues, so I figured it was best to put him on delay.

Spoiler:
You can come to whenever you want. As for dreams or revelations... You get flashes. You're in a dark hall standing in line with dozens of other warforged like you, but with minor variations. Then you're being thrown by an explosion. You look up and see only smoke and can hear yelling that doesn't make sense. Then you're falling. It lasts for an eternity until a large body of water comes into view below you. And just as you are about to hit it, you wake up.

I've responded to the early part of the journey to Fallcrest.
I'll respond to the arrival when I get home from bump in tonite and give people a chance to respond to the travel stuff.

BTW it's an awesome job your doing here (that goes for everyone), Love it ... it's a real soap :^D

Metegaia where are you? I'll just keep Madresh with the party, but try to jump back in soon, or else Kava will have to hug Demon.

Been slow to post lately - sorry about that - work's been killing me timewise. You'll see more from Anmuspi this week I expect.

Hey dragon hugs all round from Kava. :^D

speaking of wich I guess you've all seen the Ecology (which it tres coolness).
We know from this that Kava is very warm, leathery and has frontal appendages for motherhood.
