I like Keia's idea... Just sell it all, and then if you wanted one of the items, just buy it with your own money
EX.. SO If anyone wants, say, the ROP+2, then they would get 7,985 GP then SPEND 8,000 GP, so in the end would loose 15 GP but gain a ROP+2.
William will take the 7,985... I'll come up with a shopping list soon.

7,985 gold pieces each, to spend on stuff. It works, although I think "magical item liquidation" lacks realism. Oh well. I'm thinking of chipping in 15 gold pieces for Boots of Speed, but I wonder if we will be playing after ITCK. From a metagame point, it would be more efficient to buy 10 Potions of Haste. However, that strikes me as very cheap. Or I was thinking maybe of enchanting my mithral full plate to maybe +2, and then spend some money on Haste and Healing potions.
Looking over, isn't eight ways alot? We have:
Zelestine
Tarkus
Groknar
Darian
William
Verra
Bellus
Lysander
Oh, that is eight people. Huh. Has Lysander stopped playing? Will he be continuing the adventure with us?

I'll take the following:
Books from library [200 gp.]
wand of magic missles (7th level caster, 20 charges) [2,100 gp.]
- [1 x 7 x 750 x 40%]
scrolls (dispel magic, fly, charm monster, 2 of summon monster 4),
[375 + 375 + 700 + 1400 = 2,850 gp.]
That's 5150 gp for items and 2835 GP.
Also, Darian will be willing to craft items for you guys at 3/4ths cost instead market price. If we have time. I need to make some items for my self - Darian needs another B^3 - hence the increased cost.

Shopping list:
Cloak of Resistance+2 (4000 GP)
2 Potions of heroism (1800 GP)
2 Javelins of Lightning (1502 GP)
10 Potions of Cure Light Wounds (500 GP)
total cost: 7802 GP
Plus 73 GP in cash, added to the 30 GP I have is a total of 103 GP in cash.
Also, DO we have time for Darian to make items or not? If so, any of the above that I can get from him, William will do so.. both for the reduced cost and to 'keep it in the group'.

How much time would you like to wait before going after the lich? You suspect that you have at least three weeks to wait before the next vision, based on the investigation of the Colorless Lodge.

I'd say we either attack almost immediately, or we try to time our attack so that the lich is out of the picture when the next vision hits.
Attacking now allows us to gain more treasure quickly, so we can convert it into more useful stuff by the time of the next vision. It also lets us test our hopefully improved tactics and get a better feel for our group's abilities. That way, we have some to adjust things and get ready before the next vision.
On the other hand, if we attack later, we have a chance of hopefully knocking the lich out of the adventure because he'll be recovering while we investigate the next vision. We also get a chance to test out any new items we get.
Maybe we could also set one off the Lodge's Seers off to track down the lich's phylactory. Then we can make him stay dead.

Let's knock the lich out of the adventure by hitting him later. Further, it allows us to rest, relax, and prepare, gather more information, make magical stuff, etc.

I aim to misbehave
So a compromise? Wait a week to ten days, then take on the lich? Maybe Ellyn will have attacked him by then and saved us the trouble. Ten days should give everyone enough time to train, make items and have us work on tactics for a while.
My shopping list will be forthcoming - depending on whether we have time to craft some things.

No, attacking in ten days is bad. We want to hit him right before we get the vision, so we can do our stuff in the rest of the adventure while he's still reforming from his "death." If we hit him at day 10, instead of day 20, he will have definitely reformed and be anxious for vengeance.
