I keep thinking of the film "The Longest Day". Eisenhower at a table with his generals discussing D-Day. They've just been told the weather will be way less than perfect. (heavily paraphrased from a less than perfect memory) "I don't like it at all. Not one bit. But the prospect of waiting...

"Go help your friend, Blay. We'll try and keep these buggers pinned down." Joshua kept his eye on the bobbing figure of his target across the other side of the bar, ready to attack as and when he stood up. Ready Action: Magic Missile; Immediate Reaction: Trigger - Soldier in J1 stands up. 14...

Hearing the sounds of combat outside Garrick made for the exit. Pausing just inside the door he drew a shuriken and prepared to attack. Like a snake striking he darted to the corner and flung a shurinken right into the face of the giant patchwork beast. Deft Strike 26 vs AC: damage 11. Roll...

Taking swift advantage of the halfling’s current state Garrick sprinted around the room to come up behind the strange one. With consummate ease he drew his dagger across the throat of his opponent, the resultant blood spattering across Kendrick as he prepared his own attack. "Oops! Sorry Ken!"...

"Ready are we for this fight? Is out of the question to rest, yes?" Girth's eyes are sad as they survey those of his companions that are wounded. "Now is better than later I fear. Surprise before realisation comes, her guards are dead. But healthy is better than wounded also. What say you?"...

Joshua raised his eyes towards the heavens. “May the Gods preserve us. And all I wanted was a quiet drink”. With one hand clasping his staff the other crooked its fingers towards the human soldiers… “I suppose the new bloke knows what he’s doing” he muttered to Rellek “SRAIRA DRASIS ISCHYROL!”...

Charlie yawned and then winced as the action reminded her of her injuries. "Sure thing, Zarathas. But I really could do with some sleep, and something to eat and drink. Where should we meet up tomorrow, and when?"

His heart nearly bursting with the remaining shreds of that attack - whatever it was - Garrick took a quick breath to try to clear his head before launching himself back into action. Manifesting back into sight he sprang like a panther around the corner and transfixed the power-wielding...

Thanks for the response Mal. I did know about the cutting corner so I was expecting an OA. I realised it would stop me but I posted the rest in the hope I managed to get past (phew!) I had completely forgotten about the 1 sneak attack per round (slaps wrist) sorry about that. I'm not...

While he waited for the dragonborn to reply Girth stared him in the eye. His tongue licked across his lips and his eyes promised a death most horrible - if necessary. Without averting his eyes he spoke quietly to the others. "Unthinkable it would be to sail away. This Lady of the...

"I'm with Norgrim, mate. You say the word and there will be death on the carpet. Course it could be yours and ours but thems the chances ye take." Solveig stared at Helmut awaiting the signal - fight or flee?

Joshua has been sitting quietly watching as the others went about their business. He is a dour soul most of the time anyway. His attention is drawn however to the strangers who move towards Karis. With slight movements, trying to attract no notice he tightens his hold on his staff and...

Can I discuss here my latest IC post? I have never tried such a complicated series of moves before so there may be amendments needed. First move is a power from my boots - speed +1 My ordinary move consists of 2 minor actions and a standard action interposed by an action point action -...

Garrick drew his dagger and, clicking his heels together to activate the arcane power of his boots, he darted at lightning speed into the hallway. He slipped up behind the golem and drove his dagger towards its unprotected back. Minor action: draw dagger; Use Boots encounter power Move to L32...

Oooooh! Niiiiice!

Charlie grits her teeth and tries to stand steady. Again she is surprised when she manages to overcome the pain. "I must be tougher than I thought" she mused 11: Roll Lookup

Sure Shot Gloves: Property: ranged weapon attacks ignore cover (but not superior cover) Distant Shot - Ignore -2 penalty for long range. Much as Garrick is enjoying the eroticism of the moment can I ask for a 'Second Chance' re-roll here? I think we are gonna need all the edge we can get!

At Quagmire's words Girth whirled around, fingers twisting and eyes blazing. A low, angry hiss burst from his lips as he quickly considered what had been said. Fortunately he realised in time that Quag was talking to the dragonborn and not to him. It seemed there was more than one Lady in...

Haven't had a chance to catch up with things for a day or two because of family business and already there are 643 people wanting in on a game that won't start for maybe a month! Could I be alternate 644 Ren, please!!

"I suppose food and drink are our first concern. And you are right in saying we may pick up hints or rumours as to what is happening around the place." Joshua also looks a little askance at the seeming ease that the town is in. "May I suggest an early night and an early start tomorrow. I...
