OOC: Unless the pneumonia flares up again or some other act of God occurs I am back. Been catching up on the posts and have some thoughts. Re: Critical Hit and Critical Fumble decks. I would have to vote a hard no on both of these. Things like this introduce randomness, and anything that introduces randomness is generally bad for the players. This is by virtue of the fact that players are more likely to suffer long-term effects of the randomness. For example, it doesn't matter much if a mook suffers 1d4 Str damage. He is meant to die. Even a major NPC or "boss" type monster won't be affected by the negative repercussions of such a thing for longer than 1 encounter in all likelihood. I know they look like they can spice things up on the face of things, but it has been my universal experience that such things are bad for players any time I have used them or seen them used. So I am decidedly against such things. Re: feedback on the "fog" encounter. I don't have much to say about the style itself, but I will note that when I last posted, it seemed like we were going quite a long time without anything of note happening, even by PBP standards. I'll have to take a look at Corbin's thread, which I have yet to do, to see if anything has actually happened yet, but I've basically just been repeating the same action over and over.

Welcome back, and hope things continue to improve for you.

Oh, and it's my turn.

And . . . he's back! Welcome!

[sblock=Welcome back, airwalkrr!]I've got Corbin parked outside 'collecting himself' to head back in when he can.

Vote heard and acknowledged regarding the Crit/Fumble Decks - per my original post regarding this issue, as even one of you is against I won't be using them.

Feedback regarding the post style received and appreciated! It does go slower this way, as I can typically get only one characters actions resolved a day. There are a few things the party can do to get to the 'encounter' parts of the encounter a little faster - they've started down that path with their last few actions.

Again, welcome back! Glad the pneumonia is resolving/resolved.[/sblock]

As usual, as soon as I resolve the current action, I'll post a mention in this thread to prompt the next actor.

[MENTION=12460]airwalkrr[/MENTION]: Corbin is up!

 

[airwalkrr]

Corbin is updated. Sorry for the delay. Had a couple bad days. Still working on full recovery so I appreciate it if you guys bear with me.

 

[Maidhc O Casain]

Bearing with, airwalkrr.

I've got both Corbin's and Robert's actions, so there are two rounds of updates incoming. I'll post here as usual when ready for the next action.
