Gfunk-JollyDoc Crossover Story Hour [Updated 4/30]

Actually, I would like to talk about putting this SH into PDF format, but I'm not sure how. Right now, I already have it in DOC format in Word. Any suggestions as to where I should start?

Go to Word. Get the formatting right how you want it. Then go to the Print menu and click on the printers list. There should be an icon for Abobe PDF Writer. Click on that, tell it where you want to save the file, and BOOM! you are done.

There isn't.

But I'm using Word XP at work and it may have some network restrictions that I am not aware of. When I get back home, I will try it on my own PC.

The only restriction is that you need a copy of Adobe Acrobat. And it's not free.

There are some free software .pdf converters out there, but as far as I know, they are Linux only.

Oops. Hehe. I fergot that I am at the office where people actually _pay_ for software. If you want to email it to me G, I can switch it over from here.

Joachim beat me to it. He's probably got a new version of the Writer anyway.
 


I believe the stats are posted in this thread, if you look back. If not, there should be a link to where they are posted. I know I've seen them somewhere!

Yep, he's right. Entropy's final stats after Bastion were converted to 3.5. You can find them on p. 16.

NOTE: You can find other stat blocks in this SH as well. I posted blocks for Entropy, Joachim, Hor'ahun, and Noir right before the final battle with Nalavara. You can find these on p. 11. Also, I posted Nurn's stats which you can find on p. 12.

Enjoy!

Oooh, 9000 views, time for something special!

Okay, there are a couple of ideas I've been tossing around. You guys tell me what you think:

1. As mentioned by a few in this SH, it would be nice to have the entire CotSQ/BoBS saga in one PDF or DOC. Actually, I've been meaning to do this so this is probably an ideal opportunity. I plan on making some format changes so that the SH reads more like a novel as well as post numerous pics cannabalized from the WotC site and the two modules. Also, I will insert some background information about previous exploits in our campaign. Finally, as a tip of the hat to Sepulchrave's first-rate SH, I will put game notes at the end of each chapter detailing interesting, relevant game mechanic information.

2. I've been thinking about this for a while -- tell me if you think it is stupid or not. Or, more precisely, if you'd be interested in reading it :) . Since I'm a big alternate history buff, I was thinking of writing some spin-offs of our SH. These would, of course, be much shorter than the sum total of the SH -- only 5-10 chapters in length. We could examine such hypotheticals like,

"What if Entropy destroyed the Undying Temple rather than aligning herself with Kiaransalee?"

"What if Joachim and Hor'ahun were able to slay Entropy and Noir in the Bastion?"

"What if Nalavara killed the entire party?"

Or, we could look at slightly more outrageous topics,

"What if the party met with an 'accident' and was irrevocably trapped on Athas?"

"What would happen if the party was somehow transported to the modern world?"

And so on . . .

Anyway, your input is very much sought!
 

Personally, I'd love to see both. I'm not sure which I prefer but, I will say, that I prefer the more "Possible" of those in the second option.

Dangit gfunk, hard to choose. Hmmmm, I guess I'd go with the first option. Mostly because if you get it done now everything will come much clearer (all those game moments around the table you want to include).

I'd like to see the second option later though. Or as you feel inclined.
