A company called Southern Island had plans to release some Privateer Press toys. It looks like the only one they got out the door was a human guy. :( Amazon.com: Warmachine: Lord Commander Coleman Stryker: Toys & Games It's probably a stretch, but if you can get him on board for that, it seems...

I think we have a couple of leads beyond Captain Rex. If you guys are not interested in chasing the gnome's story, I think you were also talking about questioning Kordin, the dwarf Veiled Society contact. There was also another member of the crew mentioned, who we haven't looked for yet. I'm not...

It's not worth nearly as much with the shrink wrap on, because that prevents one from playing the game. Thankfully, I know a restoration technique to remove the shrink wrap, and I'd be happy to do that for you.

Thanks! My 4E Mystara game is about to enter epic tier and I've been looking at the BECMI stuff for inspiration. I like that the advice addresses more than just combat.

I'm not 100% sure what you're getting at either, EW. Random death is a natural consequence of a game where you roll dice to see whether things die. My suggestion is to replace death with a different sort of failure, and I was under the impression you thought that was a dumb idea.

Detrimental to fiction, too. The worksheet reads like a medical chart and seems very conductive to unraveling a character in all sorts of boring and pointless directions.

I think making death permanent but special encourages greater attachment to a character and greater character development. Of course, there are a lot of things that encourage character development, taking death off the table is not required. So where does the sense of danger come from? From the...

Nafije opened negotiations with the most basic goals: that Captain Rex would help them to find Rory, and in exchange, they would search for Nell. Now it was a matter of convincing the Captain to put forth his best, and most sober effort. The idea of fetching Nell for the Captain's appetites...

That makes sense. Thanks.

I have a rules question about one of the powers Essentials mages get, Suggestion. Here's the text: Trigger: You make a Diplomacy check. Effect: You make an Arcana check instead, using that result to determine the outcome of the Diplomacy check. When I looked at this, I thought it was probably...

"The journal did say he only became captain briefly," Nafije said to Adam, to collaborate the story. "For only about five days." Nafije's eyes lit up. "Captain, you must have some idea of where Rory Barbarossa has gone, if you were to bring his bird to him." In Ylaruam, Nafije used to barter in...

The Heroine vaulted from behind cover and repeated the same tactic against the captain's second guard- letting Aurora distract this one, and exploiting the element of surprise. The weightlessness of her radiant blade let her slice through the enemy like a fencer at practice, unhindered by such...

The Heroine had definitely lunged at Dragonborn 1's back, but when the body fell she was not to be found behind it. In peripheral vision there was a flutter of white cloth, and then the Heroine was behind the litter- a ghost on the battlefield. Dragonborn 1 dropping to 0 HP triggers my Soul...

Goldie let out a squawk of alarm and raised his wings in a threat display. Nafije put herself between Goldie and Captain Rex, like a mediator breaking up a fight, but she was not strong enough to repel the Captain with a mere outstretched arm. "Captain, this is Goldie. You remember Goldie, don't...

Nafije stayed in the inn with Adam, Vrashek, and perhaps Cassi and Skaros. She fed Goldie a mix of seeds, nuts, and dried fruit from a pouch, but any astute observer could see that Nafije snuck a bite here and there herself. "Adam," she said, "how is your tiger? Did you try any of those herbs...

Cimarron fell back to the north side of the litter and waited for Dragonborn 1 to pass her by. When he was distracted by Silk, she sprang from behind and lunged with her weightless, radiant blade. "It seems you made an impression, Silk," she spoke barely above a whisper, between the crashes of...

The Heroine stood conspicuously on the abandoned conveyance of the slave driver's litter. She stood to be seen by the slaves, to inspire them, but she also surveyed the chaos. She was briefly taken aback by the number among them who went for weapons and readied to fight back against their...

Astra's intensity had been enough to silence Nafije, and she offered no argument. In fact, she seemed pleased. "Even one with an adorable name like Mr. Feathers?" Nafije sighed. "Yes, I suppose you're right. We'll keep it in mind, and take home nothing that would anger the gods or rampage across...

Nafije considered Astra's skepticism and found wisdom in it. "True," she said, "All true. I will tell you why I care about this island. Have you ever heard the story of the opening of Ust-Urt?" Nafije told the story of when the prairie of Ust-Urt was a forbidding, rocky crag. A young man was...

Insight, I have a question. Once we decide to set sail for the Isle of Dread, will it be possible for Nafije to communicate with her master in Thyatis, and get permission to go without making the journey back to Thyatis? Like a sending ritual or some plot device method of communication...
