[QUOTE="gideonpepys, post: 7441038, member: 79141"] [b]DM Notes[/b] Before I post the final part of our session report, I thought I would explain the way we dealt with the multiple combats detailed in post #864. There were only four out of seven players present the week before last, so the party had to be split a week earlier. (That's why I had Amielle Latimer appear early and beckon Leon, Ascodel and Andrei up on to the roof). So during session 55 I kept a careful count of rounds while Korrigan, Uru, Gupta and Quratulain herded the wedding guests through the palace. This session began with a recap, as always, which led us into the arrival of Sevitar and Rumdoom, and Korrigan's decision to head up to the roof. Then we needed to find out exactly what position the rest of the party was in. As certain players had been given character sheets for Aodhan, Harkover and Dame Jillian two weeks earlier, it only seemed appropriate (and suitably dramatic) that we should find out what happened there too. This meant that almost every player now had something to do - not just Leon, Ascodel and Andrei. Rumdoom's return meant we were one character short, so I decided to play out Asrabey's fight too, rather than guesstimating. This meant that we were playing out three separate fights simultaneously, round-by-round, until each one had reached a satisfactory conclusion. (Even though Asrabey's fight did not start at the same time as the others!) I admit that this was quite a complicated solution and wish I had thought to use miniatures to make things a bit more clear, as for the first few rounds there was a fair amount of confusion with players forgetting who was or wasn't where. But the method worked and had the desired outcome of giving us a clear idea of what was happening in each room when the fight against Venkio was over. It also meant that we left the throne room on a nice cliff-hanger while the rest of the party tried to get past the dragon tyrant and rescue the king. (More of which in the next post.) [/QUOTE]
