    X-COM (updated M-W-F)

    Wow, everyone survived. Impressive. I remember typically losing an average of 2 team members until they could be equipped with decent armor and firepower. Of course that probably had a lot to do with me usually throwing caution to the wind to get the area cleared as quickly as possible.

    X-COM (updated M-W-F)

    Alien Terror site or something like that right? Those were nasty before everyone had laser weapons or better. Really looking forward to reading what happens next, although I imagine that will be some massive write ups over the next week or two.

    Brain can't wrap around LA+3 template

    Thanks for the expanded explination Shin Okada. I'm not new to DnD, but I'm taking my first crack at templates/LA.

    Brain can't wrap around LA+3 template

    Thank you so very much. I thought that was the case, but wasn't sure. I feel marginally less ignorant now. :)

    Brain can't wrap around LA+3 template

    Okay, stupid question time. If I were to take the half dragon template (LA+3) and applied it to create an ECL 6 character, would how many of what hit dice would he have, 3dX from class levels, or 3dX from LA and 3dX from class levels? Thanks for helping me become a little less ignorant :)

    X-COM (updated M-W-F)

    Those pics came from NWN? Wow, they look nothing like what I remember from the original NWN. Although I never looked much beyond the first incarnation or at any of the online play.

    X-COM (updated M-W-F)

    Very entertaining read Lazybones. Where are those pics from? Was there and XCom remake at some point?

    OotS #683 is up

    I swear, Belkar is funnier now that he's 'good'. That was awesome.

    Lovin' it. How are you handling the long recovery times?

    DM in way over my head

    You could run through that Keep on the Shadowfell intro module. Here's the link to it on wizards site D&D Test Drive. On that link there's the rules inrto, as well as a character generator.

    X-COM (updated M-W-F)

    Nice way to handle the down time between missions, which there is so much of during the first few months in Xcom. Thanks to this SH, I had to dig out my old diskettes and find a dos emulator so I could play. That was so much fun. The wife wasn't too thrilled with me for a while though. :)

    Cheaty dice?

    You could mention the dice to the DM outside the group and get the DM to do a 'hey cool dice, can I have a look' and he can roll the d20 along with a regular d20 a few times for 'fun' and 'notice' if/that the 'cool dice' roll consistently high.

    Oots 681

    That'd be one dangerous family reunion.

    Sagiro's Story Hour: The FINAL Adventures of Abernathy's Company (FINISHED 7/3/14)

    Very informative update. Sounds like it was one of those why didn't we do this sooner moments. It also feels like this is a bit of a calm before the storm.

    Giving Birth

    Aside from birthing being dramatically exciting for the parents themselves, there isn't a whole lot you can do to make it exciting for outsiders other than what's been mentioned. If the baby is going to be a part of the story arc, you could as other's have said, have an attempted kidnapping...

    X-COM (updated M-W-F)

    X-com. Now there's a term I haven't heard in years. Makes me want to dig out my old diskettes and see if it'll run on my system. Looking forward to reading this.

    Sagiro's Story Hour: The FINAL Adventures of Abernathy's Company (FINISHED 7/3/14)

    Has the party gotten to powerful to do the little things in life, like go for a walk? ;) I guess the teleportation side trek was the 2% mishap roll?

    Sagiro's Story Hour: The FINAL Adventures of Abernathy's Company (FINISHED 7/3/14)

    Like any powerful artifact/device, if one is good, two must be better. With 'good' and 'better' being relative terms of course.

    Sagiro's Story Hour: The FINAL Adventures of Abernathy's Company (FINISHED 7/3/14)

    I'm sure the party is beyond happy that the cauldren is gone...or is it? Awesome update Sagiro, and any update, even a smallish one, is a welcome update.

    Sagiro's Story Hour: The FINAL Adventures of Abernathy's Company (FINISHED 7/3/14)

    So the party was right, Praska was responsible. Does them having access to all those high level divination spells take some of the fun, or at least surprise, out of it for you?
