OOC for Arador's LotR Game

BTW, Darth Ecks I noticed that you have Swift Strike but only 6 points in armed combat. I think you might need to bump up your ranks to get that ability. Look forward to playing with you and hope you won't be too grumpy after all those years by yourself in a cave

That would be my fault. Darn, forgot a prereq! Well, I'd recommend swapping out Swift Strike for Evasion, Darth Ecks, since Inez is right - I goofed and you don't quailfy for Swift Strike yet.

Sorry, all!

 

[Darth Ecks]

Thanks for the heads up, Inez
I think garyh was trying to buff me up so that I would let him stand behind me in a fight. However, I think I probably will be quite grumpy and surly when removed from my wonderful cave.
The changes that I made are as follows...removed Swift Strike, and added Edge: Weapon Mastery (Battle Axes) (this is pending what arador decides on the axe situation, as is my having a shield) and Smithcraft (Armoursmith, Weaponsmith) +1.
The new sheet is off and e-mailed.

I helped Darth Ecks with those replacement picks, so that atones some, doesn't it? Right? Right, guys?

If anyone is interested, I purchased the Middle Earth map box set a few days ago. Although I am by far no Tolkien scholar and cannot vouch for there accuracy, the maps a are very well done. They were drawn by the same person who drew the maps for the movie. The only downside that I can see to the maps is that there is not one of the entire land. Other then that they are great and I am seriously considering framing mine.

The characters look great so far, I can't wait to see them in action.

Ok, here you go.

Dwarven Great Axe:

Larger than a Battle Axe but smaller than a standard Great Axe, it is sized specifically to be a two handed axe for dwarves.

damage: 3d6 Parry: +1

Let me know what you think.

Hmm only 2 elves? Looks like we have a nice demographic sampling of ME.

 

[Darth Ecks]

Thanks Arador...that's about what I was hoping for.
Much appreciated. I have edited my character sheet to reflect this change.
