    Grim Tales + Slavelords

    I've built a straight WWII scenario with GT, and it looks like it will work great. The problem I ran into with using Modern or any of the WWII offshoots of either modern or 3.0 was the customizability of the various archetypes you run into in a Modern Combat scenario (especially WWII era). Never...

    Grim Hyborian Tales: Children of Ctaroc

    In game terms, it's an underpowered wyvern with the stinger replaced by a 'defecation attack'. I didn't make it up...stole it from the Gonji series of books by Rypel. Came out nice in your creature creator...but didn't strike the right kind of fear I was looking for in this scene... I was...

    [GRIM TALES] Wulf Ratbane's SLAVELORDS of CYDONIA

    Rawley has everything he needs. He was suggesting it in case some other party members left stuff behind (like ropes on the horses - which have come in handy... med kits and the like). Plus for him, he was savoring the thought of that case of wine that Teddy mentioned in fat boy's tent. But, he...

    Grim Hyborian Tales: Children of Ctaroc

    We'll call it non-lethal since you just jumped, slipped and fell. And before I forget, everyone can roll a Fortitude DC15 for severe cold (with winter clothing). Ongwi can use his Survival skill on this... (Survival DC 15 to get a +2 on your Fort check, and a +2 to one character per point you...

    [GRIM TALES] Wulf Ratbane's SLAVELORDS of CYDONIA

    Still staring at the glowing archway, Rawley takes the bottle from Bill as it's offered. He lifts it to his lips, frowns, then looks at the bottle. "Damn, Bill!" he says, flinging the bottle into the archway. He looks at Haskins as if he just realized the sergeant had spoken to him. "Hell...

    Grim Hyborian Tales: Children of Ctaroc

    The Pict hops back out of the wyrm's arc of attack, draws, and fires his bow. As the arrow sinks into the creature's shoulder, he misdraws his second shot which flies wide. Around them, the surviving Vanir pick themselves up and rush to their captain's aid. Mananga's roaring charge drives...

    Grim Hyborian Tales: Children of Ctaroc

    Alright smarta$$. I misread the SRD... 1d4 - Exploding - replenish every level... The surface is fine for a charge, it was sheer clumsiness that made it particularly treacherous...

    Grim Hyborian Tales: Children of Ctaroc

    OOC: Nope. No sweat. I don't have the book at work and I've been glancing at the d20 SRD for guidance. I see what you're talking about. You take a 5-foot step and be just fine to shoot without incurring an AOO. Let me know if you want to do differently.

    Grim Hyborian Tales: Children of Ctaroc

    Actually, you go right before the beastie... I use the same dice server, you know... Also, are you taking armor check penalties into effect for your ride check??

    Grim Hyborian Tales: Children of Ctaroc

    Directly behind you. And you can go ahead and post your action if you want. All the surprise round stuff is done. The wyrm is about half in/half out of the rift.

    I think I mentioned that I haven't got past the pictures... and really the front cover got me hung up for a while... ;0

    Grim Hyborian Tales: Children of Ctaroc

    That's what I thought. whispery voice: *SRD...SRD*** Too bad. I had a great mental picture of the mighty warrior going face first into the ice. Not exactly a Howard-esque moment, but great '30's slapstick.

    Grim Hyborian Tales: Children of Ctaroc

    Mananga unlimber his spear and stepped forward with a bloodcurdling yell that cut off quickly, the spear flying wide, as he struggled to keep his feet on the uneven and treacherous surface. "To me and the wyrm!" yelled Arnvid, his broad-bladed throwing axe singing through the wind and striking...

    OOC: Rawley's where he wants to be... Strangled...nice. And I is an editor.

    Grim Hyborian Tales: Children of Ctaroc

    OOC: As crappy as that roll is, you still go first in the surprise round. Mananga whirls to a surreal scene. Where there once was a jagged expanse of ice stands a massive bluish white wyrm, its thick wings spread and snake-like head drawing back to strike Arturio and his horse. He can see...

    [GRIM TALES] Wulf Ratbane's SLAVELORDS of CYDONIA

    T. Rawley drags hard on his cigarette and pitches it away, never taking his eyes off of the strangle glowing archway. He caught Haskins' actions out of the corner of his eye and an alarm bell went off in his head. He rushed forward, "No! Wait!"
