IG's Scales of War [OOC]

[Erekose13]

Thank you for accepting my application to join. I'm happy to pick up in garyh's place and hope to fill it as well as he. I'll catch up and post his next action against the ogre in short time. Regarding the other recruits, personally I've gamed with both stonegod and evolutionKB before (and am currently running a game with both of them actually). Either would be a good addition to the group. SG brings a controller which could help and evoKB a warlord which would be good to replace renau1g.

Anyone else have any input or preferences? I'd like to make a decision today if at all possible.

Well, given that no one submitted a cleric that I remember, we would probably want the warlord as one of the new hires. Someone who can trigger healing surges is a really good thing.

Apart from that, they all pretty good. I am well pleased.

I second the request for a cleric or warlord. Very needed in most cases.

Vada Vosa (I think) submitted a dwarven cleric. It was the last entry, complete with stats and a background, I believe.

Ok, so I've never run a skill challenge here (or anywhere, for that matter) before, nor have I seen one run. We'll try to wing through it, but if you've got any suggestions I'm all ears.

L4W has run a few. Here's one.

Wonderful information, thank you. I'm going go have to get into one of those living games eventually.

Yeah...the thing with skill challenges is that they don't really translate well into RP until they're done.

And if -everyone- tries to make skill checks, we will fail it FAST.

I think we need to resolve the Skill Challenge in the OOC thread, including working out who will make what rolls. Then we can post the results in the IC thread as a summary of the IC events that the Skill Challenge represented.

Holy HELL? SIX successes before THREE failures? And now it's six before two.

These freaking rules are on crack.

The odds of winning this at this point...even assuming any of us are decent at these skills (I know I'm not)...are pretty freaking slim. Low rolls are very commonplace on Invisible Castle.
