    Adventure: Food of the Gods (DM: ryryguy, Judge: renau1g)

    The group's rest leaves them somewhat refreshed (and those who went in the water, somewhat drier). But it's been a long, hard day, and their reserves are running quite low. An inn bed at Fulcrum Before leaving the area, the group searches the bodies of the ambushers. Again, in addition to...

    Adventure: Food of the Gods (DM: ryryguy, Judge: renau1g)

    Good work! A very tough battle, magnified by me somewhat screwing up the setup, but you pulled it out! Also I think you all should know, the reason Papolstaanas made all those saving throws was because he drank the zocalti earlier. It really is good for you! ;) I will try to post a wrapup...

    Adventure: Food of the Gods (DM: ryryguy, Judge: renau1g)

    Round 8 quickie update I can't do a map update until I get home, but since the battle is almost certainly going to end this round, it doesn't seem all that necessary. I'm just going to post the swarm's actions, plus updated positions of the PCs, so we can keep rolling. Ok, yeah I had missed...

    ooc: and oh yeah... I think I had Chaku losing those temp hp from the psychic snake attack a few rounds ago. Did he get temp hp again after that? If so I indeed missed it. I didn't update that in the status, thanks for the reminder.

    Thanks, Charm! And that looks like a nice hit from the angel. 14 total points of damage including the vulnerability... the swarm is definitely bloodied now!

    Didn't you roll a self-crit from the other swarm aura too, BB? :eek: I sent a PM to Charm. Hopefully she'll show, if not I'll NPC her tomorrow night so Mezegis can go.

    [Adventure] Dirty Money: (The Final Encounter; Rohna, Tondrek up)[Judge: THB]

    Is the level gold awarded in a post someplace that I missed, or is it just assumed to be awarded? Roswyn accepts the belt from Shava happily. She clasps it around her tiny waist. When the half-elf returns wearing her new jacket, Roswyn smiles and nods approvingly. "Very nice, Shava! And the...

    [Adventure] The Cannith Caper (Judge: THB)

    Actually the other PCs have moved around such that I don't think there's a good spot to push the small warforged for a good area attack. No big deal though, they've done enough damage that I'm going to guess one has been dropped by Harressh's turn anyhow. Harressh's next burp of ice is more on...

    PC's Name is Funny/Disparaging Slang

    I saw someone's wiki on "Obsidian Portal" they had a campaign called "Exploring Onara"... This cracked me up because in Japanese, "onara" means, uh... passing gas. Which is not something I'm eager to "explore". Or at least, not have a whole campaign devoted to exploring. :eek: (Turns out...

    Adventure: Food of the Gods (DM: ryryguy, Judge: renau1g)

    So it's seeming like this is just a bit of an unclear point in the rules. So I'll go with the more generous version, that "jumping across X squares" means you move a total of X+1 squares. (And that'd be the same whether you jump X.0 squares or X.9 squares.) In Az's case she jumps over 3.2...

    Adventure: Food of the Gods (DM: ryryguy, Judge: renau1g)

    Ok, sorry, I didn't look at the jumping rules and didn't see that special case about not rounding down. That's kind of weird and not entirely clear what difference it makes, since you have to end up in one square and not a fractional square. It says you can "leap across" that many squares, so...

    [Adventure] The Cannith Caper (Judge: THB)

    Whoops, I thought I had already missed this turn. I'll post a fresh miss soon. We're a new group, I'm not sure we've worked out any tactics. But Harressh has many area burst 1 attacks (including an at will) that he's always looking for a chance to use without hitting friends... in this case...

    Adventure: Food of the Gods (DM: ryryguy, Judge: renau1g)

    Bridge - round 6 Kaeysari! the goliath rumbles, Do you plan to help Jynxx, or can you help me surround this one? If I can strike him, I'll crush him. The barbarian grins as he sees the blood flowing from the paleman, inciting him even more for the coming onslaught. With one of their...

    Adventure: Lord Byron's High-Seas High-Stakes (DM: Tenchuu, Judge: H.M.Gimlord)

    Ok, so Kruk hit the naga, does it do its reaction and shift a square? I guess maybe it can't because it's prone? (though it could still attack) I'm wondering if Kruk is still actually adjacent to it. I guess it doesn't matter too much, Hergunna will still have combat advantage since it's...

    What rule does your group ignore?

    A lot of the time this won't make too much difference - basically none if the interrupt powers are encounters or dailies - but the time that it will (and probably the reason for the rule) is for at-will interrupts where the triggering condition happens very often. Combat Challenge was one...

    A Simple Errand (DM:renau1g, Judge: covaithe)

    Nuts, I'll have to spend an action point just to move close enough to use Turn Undead... and I wonder if more undead might come out through the door. But it seems kind of important to try to get them off Crag and Jax, so I guess I'll do it. Don't have much time right now though so I'm just...

    Adventure: Food of the Gods (DM: ryryguy, Judge: renau1g)

    Just waiting for Charm... I think I'll be able to update some time tomorrow (slim chance for tonight), NPCing Cillani if necessary.

    LEB Discussion Thread '10

    Not sure about who it'd work well with, but I think runepriest is a natural fit for warforged, if you want to play a warforged! I wouldn't worry too much about role selection... leaders are always welcome, and striker is by far the most popular role, so there's rarely going to be a shortage of...

    Skill Challenges: How Much Have They Improved?

    Are you talking about the mechanical (character-building) choices they make, or the action/narrative, in-character choices they make? With regard to mechanical choices - yes, from one perspective it does make the players' choices less relevant. If you train Religion you get one sort of skill...
