Black Sails over Freeport [OCC]

In defense of Fentrith's wisdom, he values enjoyable experiences and smiling over being serious. "Wisdom," as described in the PHB, is common sense, intuition, perception, and willpower. Three out of four ain't bad.

Perfect Pirate/Swashbuckler ideas if you ask me

Ok, Ok, Forget about my comment.

Hey DarkMaster, just to make sure, there are lots of other things outside, including the 2, four-armed creatures that are at the base of the bell tower (about 40 feet straight down... for now, climbing soon), all the "spell-casty" things and the four creature with four speargun/crossbows... just as an FYI

Sorry I have not posted last night or today, the boards have not let me on

Anyway I was about to post but I have a question on this one...

[OOC: Still holding. I will wait until I can get at least five of them in the effect, or one of us is seriously hurt. I know there are a lot of them.].

I might be mistaken BUT to Ready an action is a Standard action (pg. PHB 160) so that you can’t move, ready and action and then attack can you? It says you can take a five foot step but in order to get an angle down the hallway Torren would have to move farther... so... would Torren cast his spell now or wait until next round? Sorry for the confusion there, just want to get it right

 

[Karl Green]

Well yes for low-magic, and as for lots of DR... the first one was Silver that everyone had. The second one, well not saying anything, but note that Player characters AND "important" villian NPC are not restricted 'the' magic. There is a reason (as noted with so many spoilers that you will all get to discuss soon plus this latest creature seems rather uninterested in your group)... NOW the Sea Hag was a bit more powerful then I thought, only cause the difference between 3.0 and 3.5 (the "death gaze" as it were) but I will be bumping your XP awards for that...

oh yea and the spells cast by the bad-guys are all first level

 

[Hammerhead]

Yeah, I hope those Bless spells don't bring us down. Well, actually, they could. The lack of a real "tank" will really show in this fight, I predict. I blame the Fighter's Guild and their exhorbitant fees...stupid protectionism...

You know, I wonder if it would be possible to hire a bunch of mercenaries for sword-fodder...errrr...backup. Maybe talk to the orcish population in Freeport, some of the more loyal ones.

I didn't say I wanted to move. I don't need to see down the hallway, I just need to see the middle of the room. From there, the spell's 20' spread should reach the north and south walls. That gives me my 2 anchor points and fills basically the whole eastern half of the room with web. The web won't extend down the hallway, but should block entry into the room. That's why I want to wait until there are enough bad guys in the room for us to be able to kill a significant number of them while they're trapped.

Does that make sense or am I babbling again?

Well, the real problem is moving and readying an action, but attacking and readying a spell, since they're both standard actions. I think that was Karl's point.

Note to self: I need to get me some javelins!

I don't think I'm trying to do that. In the surprise round I dropped the thunderstone. In the first regular round I want to Ready the Web spell. Actually, I think I should be able to move and ready, but I don't want to.
