Wizardru's Story Hour (updated 11/21)

No, I mean with a wand of magic missles that shoots a SINGLE MISSLE...at close range.

On the bright side, I did kill the thing with it. Best 750 gp my gnomish sorceror ever spent.

Well then, all's well that ends well. Unless it fell on you.

Our beta game (Barakus) continues during the Alpha hiatus. We were faced with flesh golems the other night, and wisely backed off before they activated and came our way.

WizarDru and I were discussing the 3.5 golem's immunity to magic, and that for many of the golem types, they are vulnerable to one or two types of magic in a limited and specific manner.

That led to this brief conversation.

WizarDru: "Yeah, I assume that to be the intent. Otherwise, it doesn't make any sense at all. I think the change was made to make them MORE magic vulnerable, but only in very specific ways. This removes their status as pure mage-killers, but at the same time means that the best way for the mage to defeat them is as part of a team. I like that, as I do most 3.5 changes.

I also like donuts."

To which I replied:

"Heh. 'Immunity to snacks. Exception: donuts. If plied with donuts (no saving throw), the WizarDru becomes glassy eyed and lethargic for 2d6 rounds.'"

Ahhh. Krispy Kremes.............[mindless gurgling]


FYI: I've uploaded the pictures from Barakus to the PC. Tonight I'll enlist Valanthe's help, and we'll try and post a few. Those interested in what Scorch has been doing should peruse his Livejournal entries, at http://www.livejournal.com/users/gm_Scorch/

Sorry, didn't happen last night. The Game Room at Castle Albright flooded in a very real and liquid sense, and that derailed all plans for any of last night's activities.

 

[Len]

Oh no! I hope the miniatures didn't drown.

it's ok, we'll take pictures of that too, we're not picky

Well, here's a link to the Temple Assualt from Barakus. More when I have some free time. The basement wasn't damaged or badly flooded, but it was mostly due to Valanthe's swift efforts.

Anyway, here it is.

Because she had some Dust of Dryness in her pack?
(Check her equipment sheets. $10 says I'm right.)

Seriously, I'm glad to hear it was a minor wetting.

I posted the entire Arena project up to my Live Journal blog. It is 20 pictures spread over two posts.

I will be posting my new cliff face project as I finish up the first piece. I like how it is turning out.

Rtrockel, a fellow blogger, post this link to a foam carving kit that I am seriously considering getting:

Scorch out.
