(OOC) Scourge of Daggerford (Full)

[FitzTheRuke]

I like the march-forward-while-loading-and-firing approach. It "looks" cool in my head and I think it makes tactical sense in the game.

It also lets you "do" something. Dashing is boring

Okay, I hope I haven't left it long enough that everyone forgets what's going on. If you feel like you were robbed some of your round two (we left it a bit vague as to if everyone was taking two rounds worth of actions (while the orcs were surprised) or not; Angis fired twice, as did Escella, I think. Dornuk and Vairar moved quite far. I think everyone other than Lionel took two turns, but I could be mistaken. I took the liberty of having Angis follow the other two, but he could stay on the rock if @KahlessNestor prefers. Lionel could take an extra action if @Prickly Pear wants.

Thanks for being patient with me. I hope we can get this game rolling at a regular pace again! I hope you're all still with me.

No, Lionel had two attacks plus moving through difficult terrain. Don't wait for me.

And Happy New Year!
I have been out camping the last week without any mobile connections so I have missed the busy period again!

Just as I thought I'd get all my games rolling along again at a decent pace (decent for PBP at any rate), I got sick. Probably Covid, though I didn't manage to get tested (I didn't have a car or access to a home test) I just stayed home for the isolation period. In spite of being home, I wasn't up to much in the way of thinking. At any rate, I'll try to keep things rolling along now. Thanks for playing!

Feel better, man.

It was not my intention to fall so far behind in my games. Really, it's not a lack of time that's slowed me down, it's more a dip in morale. (Not for the game, just generally). I had a bit of a rough January. I was sick twice, the second WAS covid. The first thing was worse, but only lasted three or four days, while the covid was harder to shake. I was sick for nine days, and I still (this was a few weeks ago) have low-energy and a regular headache. My employee (who gave it to me) was sick for fifteen days. Everyone else I know (my wife and kids, and my other employee) managed to avoid it, thankfully.

So, I've just been trying to work up the morale to get going again. I'll do what I can to get things going ASAP. Thanks for waiting for me.

RL sucks. Covid sucks more

@Kobold Stew 's post kicked me in the pants enough to get me to finally roll the round! I hope you all are still with me here. I'll do my best to regain some momentum and keep up with the posts. @KahlessNestor , @MetaVoid , @Neurotic , @jmucchiello and @Prickly Pear (Just giving you all a shout-out to let you know that this game is back in action.) I hope you'll join me and that I haven't lost your faith (or patience!)

If I had known everyone with Escella was going to run forward, she'd have cast Darkness on herself since she can see through it. She has 120 feet of darkvision and is currently more than 60 feet away from the nearest orc (assuming their darkvision is 60 feet). Oh well.

EDIT: Of course it's day time. Duh. Forgot.

It's been a long time. Easy enough to forget details.
