Marshal Colburn Colburn sees the man go for his pistol, but underestimates his speed. Not quite prepared for a fight against such odds as he and his men present, he fumbles somewhat with his own Colt as his balance on the horse waivers slightly. Initiative: 19

Vidal fought the dullness and discomfort in the hospital by reminding himself constantly of how effective it really was, and how thankful he was to be alive to experience it. In less than an hour in the desert with the Legionnaires, they had gone from occupational acquaintances to...

I think you should consider posting that and possibly other pictures (as appropriate) as illustrations in the story hour, which is awesome, by the way. I wish I could pay you back for the sleep lost. The introduction is fantastic!

Well, in the system recovery process that the computer has built in it says that it reinstalls it, but I don't think it really starts from scratch. So anyway, I didn't redo the OS from disc. I just had this computer guy from work come over and reconfigure my modem and check out the rest of the...

Marshal Colburn Colburn quickly grows impatient with the side-stepping traveler. He brushes back the gun side of his coat to reveal his shining sidearm. "Alright, man. Come clean with this. I don't want anyone to get hurt, but I ain't gonna brush it off, and I ain't looking forward to...

Dudes! I have like six browser windows open and my computer has been connected and turned on for the past two hours straight! I'll catch up on everything tomorrow morning. Glad to be back! Thanks to all for your patience.

I second that commotion! I don't believe I've ever played 38 consecutive rounds of combat (or survived 37). Bravo, GM!

Now it's off and on, and I expect to make progress this weekend, so things are at least better than they were.

Not really. I was overzealous. It's a little more reliable, but Sunday I plan to reinstall the OS from a friend's disc. Hopefully that will work.

There will be no narrative post for Vidal this round. :( A note...Vidal's pistol was drawn when he was incapacitated.

Sweet! Before I could even call them, my computer hinted that it might be my graphics driver, so I rolled it back and all seems well! I hope to see you all on a regular basis from now forth, but this is still a trial period. I've been on for about half an hour now without problems! Wish me luck!

Well, I talked to the folks at HP and they suggested I do a destructive system recovery. So I backed everything I could find up to DVDs (less than 10 GB total, so I'm a tad nervous about that), and did it yesterday. The bad news is that it didn't fix the problem. Guess I'll be on the phone...

"Let's take a look at what you got yourself into, then. I imagine we can afford to lend a few hands or hooves. Michael, you see to the injured man," he says, hoping that if the man has a story he wants to tell, Michael can massage it out of him. He glances to Riley and Dakota to see if...

Vidal's heart sinks and his mind commits to panic as his shot misses from five feet away. He doesn't have much of a chance to think about compensating for such a ridiculous mistake before he sees the rifle butt immediately out of the corner of his eye.

Vidal is more amazed after the fact that he was miraculously able to gain a solid footing and draw his pistol without suffering an injury from the rifle butt or its bullet. He quickly advances on the fell with his pistol aimed and his vocal chords exercising at full capacity, hoping that...

Crazy crazy. I have to keep reminding myself that a fist won't help my computer. I had to come into work today just to post. My apologies to you Shaman, as well as my player-comrades. I hate that my inconvenience is affecting all of you, too. I'll try my best to keep you posted about it...

To suddenly have direct contact with the fells sets Vidal's nerves on fire. It's a relief of a kind to have one target - one immediate concern - rather than having to juggle priorities and make decisions. Suddenly it's a match. No more lucky shots or stray bullets. Of course, all this...

Damage roll added.

I'm terribly sorry. I don't think I've made a damage roll yet in this game. I'll make a point of it. It's good to be available again. I have also noticed that my rolls have been mediocre to good, rather than what seems to be the standard poor, so I'm satisfied with that.

Vidal leans around the rocks to take a shot at the fells. "Are we holding here, Sergeant?!?" he yells above the gunfire. "The aircraft might provide us with a good opportunity to move when they start laying down the lead." Attack: 16 Damage: 10
