[QUOTE="evilbob, post: 5210379, member: 9789"] [sblock=back!]Hey guys! I'm back from out of town. Sorry that you guys have been having trouble and not much has happened! As for the options presented by THB, I vote for option 2. I think that's a stronger option and it will make things much smoother, easier, and get us back on track faster. Plus, that is SO appropriate to the adventure genre we just found ourselves in! :) "Oh my god, where's Johnny and Sue?!? They were just here!" "Never mind them, we have to get this bookcase in front of the door!"[/sblock] [sblock=game]Ok, so we killed the bad guy, his magic gem is glowy and causing undead to attack, and we left him and the glowy gem in the basement? But we think we're good until dawn, so we just have to hold up. Questions: Do we know how long it is until dawn? Did we ever decide that smashing the gem would be better or worse? So now we're in the skill challenge and also we need to position ourselves on the map, correct? Does it matter if we use the same skills over and over? I have literally never been in two skill challenges that have used the same rules, so are there any other rules for this one we should know about? Also, you said we get an extra move action this round: can we use that for another skill check? Or can we just make 1 check this round? (I will assume only one in my post for now.)
