Round 6 Talmon observes the priest bravely holding his ground against the surviving Orc and decides to wander over and lend a hand. He soon realizes the ways of melee combat are not well suited him and perhaps more training is in order. OOC- Move 30' to be on the left of Calvin (and thus...

Round 5 OOC - Map looks great VanorDM!! And way to go Calvin!!! Talmon allows the slightest of smiles to cross his face as his foes fall within the grease. The elf then moves directly behind Lydia and let's lose another Acid Dart this time aimed at the remaining archer. OOC - I rolled a 15...

Since this is my first game online, and thus my first experience with invisible castle, I'd like to make the following observation; Those Dice are Loaded AGAINST Us. :p

Round 4 actions Talmon seems to do a quick mental calculation and commits to aiding the melee combatants he stands near. The elf chants another spell causing a slippery layer of Grease to form beneath several nearby Orcs. OOC - Grease has an area of 10' so I will position it to affect the two...

Example found here. Sorry I didn't adjust the size, got in a hurry.

Might I also suggest posting a screen shot of the current battle position at the end of each round? This way people can have a strong visual sense of the combat before planning for the following round. And I'm not sure if you're interested in using them, but I took the liberty of making some...

OOC - Be sure to remember that your minimum damage in any given attack is always 1. 1d6-110 still does one damage. :)

OOC - I understand your position and will respect your ruling as DM. However, I would like it to be known that I feel imposing a 'degree of failure' mechanic on this is clearly outside of both the intention and spirit of the spell. I understand that different DM's will have different stances...

Round 3 actions The elf sees the reaction of his bespelled orcs and turns his attention to those orcs who seem unaffected. Talmon moves to the other side of his fellow elf and let's loose a dart of acid with a word and gesture. OOC - Talmon takes a 15' move ending here. He then uses his Acid...

OOC - Don't forget that your weapon does 1d8 now, as opposed to 1d6 (though it appears that it hasn't hit yet. :P). From the look of the battle ground it certainly looks like you would be entitled to an AoO. OOC - I'm once again confused. The Hypnotism spell (see link) does not have degrees of...

I have begun to notice a perpencity toward chaos admist the combat rounds in the IC Thread. Might I offer a suggestion that could curtail some of this disarry? If you make clear which combat round is the current combat round and then have each person post their intentions. Then, you as the DM...

Calvin - 19 Devos - 18 Vithalas - 14 Orc's - ??? Lydia - 4 Talmon - 7 Onsalau - 18 I'm confused by what actions caused this to be the order listed here? As I see it, the order should be as follows (with Talmon delaying to the end of round 2) Calvin - 19 Devos - 18.5 (higher modifier then...

Talmon Daellus - Round 2 The elf takes stock of the chaos as melee erupts, delaying his turn until the last moment. (delaying until the end of round 2 after Onslau). He settles his attention on the orcs that stand before Calvin McHenry and casts a spell. "Run away quickly, Orcs." says Talmon...

OOC - Don't forget that you are Enlarged. While I understand that the +2 Strength and -1 size modifier to hit granted by the spell cancel each other out on attack rolls, your new Strength of 15 makes your modifier a +2 and thus damage with your quarterstaff is 1d8+3 (str x 1.5 with two hands)...
