    ZEITGEIST Status of 5e Zeitgeist

    I jinxed it! At this month's session (where we finished Schism), our party leader announced that he's leaving for another campaign. So our post-Schism break may be indefinite. :(

    ZEITGEIST Status of 5e Zeitgeist

    I just checked my email archive. We started in October 2011. We only meet once a month, and took breaks in between each adventure to play other games (5e playtest, SW:EoE, ...) so we're just up to Schism. I guess at this rate, we'll be going well into the 2020s.. :p

    ZEITGEIST Status of 5e Zeitgeist

    Glad to see Colmarr too - I was clued in to ZG by a post of his many moons ago. (Yes, we're still running it, I just don't post about the campaign anymore. We're in the midst of the convocation at the moment.)

    Likability of Rock Rackus

    My group definitely gives him the eye roll whenever he shows up. (We're in Adv 6 at the moment) They ended up leaving him in jail in DfL. My group has a docker who has kind of acquired Rackus' popularity - he's the new hotness for the fickle attentions of the public.

    Safehouse map in adventure 5?

    Was that map just in the PF version or something? I didn't see a map at all for this encounter. I fudged the tunnels, similar to al_fredo, and then made my own map for the safe house out of MapTool tiles.

    Noodle's campaign [SPOILERS]

    Amusing end to golem encounter in the Bleak Gate facility Party was facing off against Linus, Hunting, and Colin. They had dispatched Linus & Hunting, but were having trouble doing much to Colin (partially because Asrabey is not, shall we say, a team player). All of a sudden, Slate (who took...

    ZEITGEIST 1001 things PCs are totally allowed to do in Zeitgeist campaign

    76. Raiding the subway tunnels before Zubov and his comrades have time to prepare the bomb. Now they're thinking about taking the bomb with them into the Bleak Gate.

    Noodle's campaign [SPOILERS]

    Starting Cauldron Born Hey y'all. We took another break from 4e and my DM role to try out Descent. (frustrating on the player side, as our Overlord/GM - Sam's player in Zeitgeist - won all the encounters :mad:) We had some time after wrapping up Descent in last month's play session, so we...

    ZEITGEIST MAPS - The Biggest (and Best) Problem with Zeitgeist

    I do some of each in my campaign. Most maps are transferred to a dry-erase battlemat. However, I'll usually pick one of the prettier or more detailed maps per adventure and print it out (this generally takes 9-15+ sheets of paper .. judicious crops can help here). In particular, the sea...

    ZEITGEIST 1001 things PCs are totally allowed to do in Zeitgeist campaign

    24. Be charming enough (and do enough RP) to convince Ottavia to teach a character her sign language 25. A female character seduced Boone back to her compartment, then used a 30+ Thievery check to steal his pistol and chuck it out to her companions waiting in the hall

    Noodle's campaign [SPOILERS]

    Well, I guess I never did get around to posting that last recap, huh? :p Just an update to let you know our campaign is still going, although we did take about a couple of long breaks to playtest 5e and then to play SW:EoE. (SPOILERS AHEAD) We finished up DfL last year and have started...

    ZEITGEIST Zeitgeist - time between adventures

    It tells you at the start of each adventure (it varies). 1/2/3 have 2-3 months in between, as each more or less starts in the first week of a season. 3 flows right into 4, though. Haven't read 5 in detail yet, but I believe there's a 1-2 month break there, as well.

    ZEITGEIST [Zeitgeist] Best 4e class for a Gunsmith?

    And man, were they wishing for a bit more ranged oomph yesterday. We just did the encounter from Digging For Lies - kept pushing our seeker into . The melee folks, especially those with limited Athletic ability, were finding it very difficult to move around the map. :]

    ZEITGEIST [Zeitgeist] Best 4e class for a Gunsmith?

    Agree with Ranger. We have a shifter seeker gunsmith in our party who kicks ass (and is the party's main long range threat .. the rest of the party is near useless except in melee.)

    Noodle's campaign [SPOILERS]

    Recap later, but just wanted to note we went another 6+ hour session today without a combat roll. (We basically covered exiting the Ziggurat of Apet through to arrival at the Sunken Dig Site.) Lots of dead people found - Grappa, Kaja, Caius, and the setup from Kell - but none caused by the...

    Questions about timing and release dates

    We play for 7-8 hours once per month (4e version). We started 11 months ago, and have gotten roughly halfway though Digging For Lies. TIatAotW took 2 1/2 sessions, TDS took 5 1/2, and so far DfL has taken 3. My guess is that AoT won't take quite as many to get through, as it appears to be...

    Noodle's campaign [SPOILERS]

    Generally once each calendar month when we can find a Saturday afternoon that we all have free (so anywhere from 1-7 weeks between sessions). We do have an OP site set up. This helps during the investigative, non-combat times. In this case, we were in the midst of exploring the ziggurat...

    Noodle's campaign [SPOILERS]

    Risuri Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Tablet (Aug recap) Trying something new.. I'm having my players rotate the duty of writing up the session recap (since it was taking up way too big a chunk of my limited prep time). This one is done by Sam's player. --- Beyond the Rainbow Room, we...
