In our half-dozen sessions, the ranger has died three times. None of the other PC's have died.Kzach said:I recommend the fighter or the ranger, btw. The ranger has some very nice combat options, both defensively and attack-wise.
Kzach said:Wow... if you're lucky, Charles got an honorary free pre-release copy of the PHB!
Just no appreciation or respect for youCharlesRyan said:We should have a few copies here in the not-too-distant future, and I was really hoping to have one by today, but it sadly didn't come to pass.
cdrcjsn said:You all should play the dwarven cleric. Each of you pick a different god of alcoholic beverages. You can spend the rest of the adventure arguing the relative merits of your particular god's "holy water".
You can even make it a drinking game.
Morrus said:I'll be writing up a full report later, but here's the short version: fun was had by all! It was Scalegloom, and the dragon TPK'd us at the end (but damn that was a close fight and we hung on till the last breath - if we'd had 5 players instead of 4, I'm convinced we'd have beaten him). Plus a quick tour revealed that Esdevium has in its warehouse more RPG book and accessories in one place than I've ever seen in my life!
Charles was a courteous host and an excellent GM. He allowed a couple of players to switch characters partway through the adventure so that we could get a taste for all the classes/races.
Some things that I was dubious about thematically worked in play better than I expected, and mechanically we found [combat] to be much more fluid and mobile.
Anyway, detailed report later!
