Remember, we're playing WEDNESDAY this week, not Thursday! Same time as usual. Next week will be Thursday. Christmas week will be no game. New Year's Eve...I seriously don't do anything for the holiday and would be fine running the game if you guys want. We can take a 15 min break around midnight.

Huh. I'm mid-chapter 6 now and Chapter 4 remains by far my favorite one we've gone through so far, and the players felt the same way. Odd that it's your least favorite. I do in general (veering too far in either direction still being bad, of course) favor "railroading" over "sandbox", maybe...

Remember, we're playing WEDNESDAY this week, not Thursday! Same time as usual.

Reminder: There is no game tonight, that is why we played on Sunday. Next week is Thanksgiving, so we will play on Wednesday night (the 25th) instead of Thursday. The schedule up ahead is going to remain bumpy. We'll have an actual Thursday sessions on Dec. 3rd and 17th. Zayed can't make it...

Thanks for continuing with updates. So, did the party ditch or try to hide the letter after the incident w/ the halfling scene before being searched again at the gates of Bresk, or did you let them through w/o being searched? I'm surprised, especially after trying to avoid fighting the...

The past two days, the site's become incredibly slow for me. It takes anywhere from 1 - 5 minutes to load a page, in some cases having to Reload the page one or several times after getting 504 Gateway Timeout errors. Just getting to the 2nd page of this thread took over 10 minutes and 5...

Remember to level up to 12. Please do it as soon as you can, so I have time to review the sheets. I'll try to have the server up an hour early like usual so you can modify your tokens/macros before the game. You get a feat and a stat boost, only level that happens at. Torrent will need to...

Heh, these are finally getting me motivated to post about my game. I might start a thread soon, it's just a bit...verbose right now. I also provided towns to buy/sell stuff at along the way. It's really crazy when you think about it otherwise... they get level 1 gear, whatever loot they find...

I intentionally space out the travel times between places to make up for some of the time, as I'm fearful of departing from roughly the month-per-chapter time flow, unsure if it'll matter later. It's also super easy when the players ask "what time of year is it?" for me to just look at the...

Chapter 2 was what sold me on the campaign, I see you really liked it, too. I literally laughed when I read the campaign suggesting Kazyk attacking during the Indomitability encounter, such incredible overkill to make a CR 7 encounter even harder. But you actually did it... When I ran it, I...

Ch 1: I will say, Haddin was pure joy for me to roleplay, and I missed him dearly when he left the group. Torrent ended up becoming very snarky and a bit cynical starting around the point he left, because I just needed that "fix." I also gave them background info on Haddin w/ a knowledge...

Glad you started this. I skipped almost all of Chapter 1 so i could keep my promise of starting the party at level 3. So it's interesting to see how things worked out in your game. I just summarized for the party what happened, making assumptions on what they'd have done, and beginning with...

I find myself with a sudden influx of free time the next 2 weeks (4 day weekend coming up, no class next week, almost no homework to do...), and we've had some shortened sessions lately. I was wondering if you guys would be willing to do some extra sessions the next few weeks (on top of...

Well, I gave Caela plenty more than 1 cleric level, she had plenty in Mystic Theurge. But perhaps it's better to not go that way. Then the party can figure out how insanely high level she is and (despite her build being incredibly terrible leading to much lower CR than the sheer number of...

I'd just be wary of the players getting accustomed to the idea that being put in jail means nothing. They'll just start executing everyone. Of course, you could capture them and let THEM break out of prison 50 times, and so long as the enemies never did it, they wouldn't question the...

I didn't even bring up polymorphing, it lead to a question I was unsure of how to answer. Polymorph grants the fire subtype, but not any qualities of the form you take, so I'm not sure if you actually get the fire immunity. With Protection From Energy layered with Resist Energy, it's nearly...

The green dragon was surprisingly brief for my group. They could tell immediately she was nothing to mess with. I did make a fun little alleyway maze with secret tunnels for them chasing down Nathan Lowduke (they arranged to meet him; he chose the location... 'natch), and they did lie to the...

They don't list the ranks for the skill bonuses (which is annoying), but presumably his Bluff, Know Nobility, and Sense Motive checks include at least 5 skill ranks, each granting a +2 synergy bonus to Diplomacy.

Chapter 3's War Council actually went really well. I thought it'd be dull for them w/ all the NPC text, but I planned all of it out beforehand (adding and/or modifying some of it) and it was pretty easy to think of replies to the PC's statements on the fly. The sidequest with the abducted girls...

Chapter 9 or 10 would definitely make the most sense. I just suggested cramming her return into Chapter 5 because that means it happens soon enough after that you don't need to put much/any effort into leveling her up and she's still fresh in the players' minds. Plus Chap. 5 is bereft of...
