Discussion for a Kingdom of ashes OOC II

Gold and things worth gold: 36147gp

just so I keep it straight- is this 'things worth gold' including the magical and such items you itimized after this?

 

[Laurel]

We have a masterwork steel drake, a short sword, and a buckler +1. These are worth at most 60% of their listed price.

The short sword and buckler I would say say sell or give to someone in our militia, since they are still down weapons and armor.
As for the steel drake- who is not carrying one? With it being masterwork one of us should have it-- Farathier or Archonus or Xath maybe??

As for the foray into Oceanus, I personally would opt for the first to happen within the first few weeks. Since the militia will not be ready, it is us and maybe a few others. But L'aurel wouldn't want to send people into a suicide mission not having/or been willing to go herself. Hopefully, like Jeremiah said, an easy pop-in and out: save some elves, get some coin, get some info., get out.

I think at last plan- team sneak goes in, have some way for communication, When/if trouble hits mages poof back-up in, or poof others out.

I would add maybe we want a diversion?? Also to Universe, if we go into Oceanus in say begining of week two or three- what are the defenses then? I am not sure how fast they would be able to make repairs to docks, get space cleared, and so on.

Remember that we're counting "weeks" from Edriss's funeral, so 'week 2' is actually week 3 after the invasion. That being said, the walls/no man's land are completed by the end of what we're calling week 2.

The docks are still operational (at least in part) throughout the timeline, since only some of the docks fell. Nonetheless, it's a slightly lower priority project, so I'll say that you have until the end of your 'week 3' before the last of the fallen docks have been repaired.

Funding

My rough calculations:

New Oceanus-------------------- 15,000 GP
Hywrl---------------------------- 800 GP
Our gold in bag/selling ----------- 36,147 GP
Donations from surrounding areas- 0 GP
Total********************* 51,947 GP

Donations for academy----------- ? GP
Acquired from Oceanus------------ ? GP
Donation from Rhynns------------- ? GP
Donation from noble's Council------ ? GP

Total needed for wall alone: 210,000GP/250,000 GP

Operation: Freedom Oceanus (FO)

Options for getting into Oceanus:

a- we see if we can capture one/multiple of the curious enemies that are flying above us, then use the beasts and disguses to fly into city as sentry.
b- go down the coast till we hit a lower cliff hight and swim in
c- we use mages and see if we can poof in
d- use pop-up boat from coastal area to get close by staying by coast
e- I use bob/thane and Justice to go find aquatic animals to help us in by underwater means :\
f- we just run for the front gate (screaming bloody murder) and see if they nicely open the gates :\

I am stopping here since my ideas degrade to ridiculas past this point...and no I do not claim this is even partially a complete list of options, just some ideas I had.

 

[The_Universe]

My rough calculations:
New Oceanus-------------------- 15,000 GP
Hywrl---------------------------- 800 GP

Ah! I see I should have explained that, sooner. The 'resource limit' I listed when I presented the 'stats' on Oceanus and Hyrwl is not the total amount of wealth they possess. Instead, it is meant to represent the most valuable good/service that the populace can produce. Thus, you won't find anything in New Oceanus (unless it's stuff that you brought yourselves) that exceeds a value of 15000 GP, nor could you find anything more valuable than 800 in Hyrwl.

I hope that clears things up a bit.

This might be difficult to do, depending on when next we can play with the complete gang.

Are you doing this first, or making your foray into Oceanus first? If Oceanus is first, do you have a plan? Get to making it!

I personally think that Oceanus should be first...

However it's FINALS week and I have other things that need attention before I can concentrate on D&D...

Moreover, I think that it is very important to have everyone that is venturing into the city in one place to do the planning... message boards are okay for the suggestion of ideas... but, it's hard to actually make the plans here because not everybody has input on the boards...

Is there a time when people could get together to make plans this week?

hmmm....so what exactely are our mission objectives after infiltrating Oceanus?

Objectives:
a- Free some elves
b- find out who is in charge of Oceanus (it is not big giant dragon thing -Sylvator?), what thier inside defenses are
c- find cannon ball something with royal markings for proof
d- liberate some funds
f- stay alive

These proably should not all be in one mission. We can send militia in on later missions, but these are the objectives that I think have been stated thus far.

Mission Objectives

1. Discover who is controlling Syvattagor (sp?).

2. Discover where they are taking all the elves.

3. Look for clues as to the location to the blade that is in Oceanus.

4. Look for anything that links the Draconics with the King.

5. Don't get caught.
