[QUOTE="Man in the Funny Hat, post: 3519723, member: 32740"] Not at all your bad. It was the rules bad. It took me a good deal of cogitation to distill that nugget of "Just how DOES an encounter occur on a ship at Spelljamming speed?" Those distilled possiblities were created by the rules as written, but were definitely not listed as such or described as such. It is simply the only list of possibilities (with rare exceptions of course). Don't blame yourself for not intuitively grasping what the rules left unsaid. And just one of the list of issues with Spelljammer [I]as written[/I]. You really can only run a proper Spelljammer campaign if you really ARE flying by the seat of your pants. :) There are too many holes in the rules, too many walls in the rules, too many inconsistencies, lapses and oversights. But it's Hell On Jets if you have players that are willing to play along, rather than play [I]against[/I] the rules. [/QUOTE]
