now, how do your PCs haul their stuff???

The party tends to be pretty good about offloading extras, especially large items like armor and shields. They have an HHH (the haversack, not the wrestler).

So I have almost entirely turned a blind eye. Though I get a little uppity about pole-arms. ("You have been fighting with a sword and shield...you don't DRAW your Glaive, you dropped it before the fight.)

My group have had a number of methods of hauling stuff in the past, it used to commonly be a wagon, stacked full of every conceivable supply they could ever need, but after the nasty incident with Flame arrows and the wagons 2 barrels of Oil and good by Dr Feustus... they changed to a less obvious method of moving things.... namely the good old dungeon cart (think mining cart but less heavy and with proper wheels).

One of the players even invested thousands having the thing enchanted and animated and even given sentience at one time...that was quite funny especially when the cart developed a slightly decietful trait and kept losing treasure and so forth put in it <chuckle>

during the current campaign it hasn't become a factor yet needing to move heaps of things so currently they are just carrying what they need in hands and packs..

Regarding horses and my group well they've had them and left them and generally (quite worringly) have a tendency of not really showing them much concern, never asking to groom or feed them etc, dumping them in a stables as fast as possible... quite worring really as I like to follow certain novel series standard of making horses a little more exciting than bog standard stat block horse, e.g. give them a biot of personality, different traits and tircks... but even that doesn;t inspire my group to treat them as they should I'm sad to say..... I don;t know why and it only seems to be with horses??

Our characters own a Mule and a Horse and Cart. Depending on where we are going, we usually take one or the other to haul heavy gear. My character also owns a small cottage in a nearby village.
 


PPP

I'll probably be flamed for this one, but what the heck.
Our current DM hasn't been Dming long and didn't want to really worry about that, so he gave us a PPP - Portable Party Pool. It is basically a Portable Hole that each member of the party can access.
We do keep it neat and tidy and don't put every single thing that we find in it, just the expensive stuff and magical weapons we keep finding (RtToEE) and just can't use.
 

My poor (I mean that in every sense of the word.:cool: ) party carries what little they have on their backs or on their donkey. They would have been much wealthier, but instead of looting the villain's stronghold, they set it on fire accidently, and barely escaped with their lives. That'll teach them to light flasks of oil and then throw them indoors.:rolleyes:
 

Sadly wehave had to invest in two wagons to carry food supplies for ourselves and our horses. but then again we are going to travel a desert. thank god halflings only eat quarter portions.

Well, that or it'll teach them to only LPB (ie: Loot, Pillage, Burn) the Stone towers... ;)

Mabye as they gain a few levels, and thus start taking on the 'bigger hitters', thier villians will be able to afford to build out of sturdier materials. Of course this means the Bad Guys won't have as much treasure left over for the party to find/loot, but them's the breaks! :p

What makes you think you'll be flamed for that? :)
