Combat Round 3 The last Kith standing in the chamber tries to grab Blackthorn Rolls 4 + 2 = 6. He slides slides past you, leaving his back exposed! The Kith on the platform swipes with his dagger at Havarth Rolls 18 + 2 = 20 Rolls 1 + 2 = 3 damage. Jingles smashes the Kith's knee. The creature howl...

Sorry fellas. On an extended date. Will update when I'm home ;p

Combat Round 2 Order: Kith, Bilgewiggler, Judge Blackthorn, Gnomeboy The Kith on the lift struggles to stand up. He shakes off the fall, drawing a curved knife. The two Kith still in the chamber attack: The first against Blackthorn: 20+2 = 22; Hit; 6+2 = 8 damage + crit. The Kith expertly catches L...

Summary of Last Round Qort is off-scene, by the drain-hole. Kettering was speared through the lung and is dead. Stinky Pete was tackled onto the platform and had his spine severed. Jingles, Nurzual and Brandybland leap down onto the platform, missing the Kith in the process. Thelonious and Blacktho...

I'll be back and ready to keep things rolling in the morning! Thanks for hanging in there.

I have a major project due for grad school, so I'll need to focus on that for the weekend. I'll write up a turn summary after that and process next turn's actions. Have a great weekend!

I'm not sure how the last round turned out.... Toby, Havarth, and Lucius continue to the lowering platform. If it's not too far down, they will jump down to it. If it's too far to jump safely, Havarth will lower Toby down, Toby will help Havarth down, and Lucius will cover that action and then they...

Since Stinky Pete was tackled onto the platform, consider his stuff to be on the platform also. And your actions all go through! Let's try the streamlined combat style this round, and see if you all like it. Then we'll make a decision if you want to use it or not. Okay. So everyone just write out yo...

So do we want to just do combat the way we've been doing it so far, except I roll everyone's initiative at the start of round one?

I'm sorry if I rushed to a solution; I have an anxiety disorder so I tend to view tiny issues as huge problems.

Sorry, I'm at work, so it's hard to find time to reply :). Liebgott drives home with his spear and strikes the Kith in the shoulder. He's bleeding hard and definitely shaken. Gnomeboy goes now. If you all want to try a faster / streamlined combat system, I'm okay with that. We'll pick that up at the...

The three adventurers miss their mark, and now find themselves descending into the darkness with the Kith.

Judge Blackthorn goes now.

Since we're entering combat, you can either take those actions during your turn, or you can adjust to the situation! Round One Order: Kith , Bilgewiggler, Judge Blackthorn, Gnomeboy Two of the Kith charge at Kettering with their spears: Attack Rolls: 8+2 = 10 (Hit) 5+2 = 7 (Miss) Damage: 1+2 = 3 Ket...

Don't worry. I can always tune the scenario to fit the party. If I have to sit around for a bit one night and rethink the numbers such that the has a reasonable chance of surviving if they play well, given less players, I can do that. That said, I think the game is more fun with a fuller party. So I...

Soulcatcher hasn't been replying to updates in a while. Do we want to open the game up for recruitment of another player? I certainly don't want to weaken the party by having 5 characters just disappear from the game, but I don't know if they intend to jump back into the game.

Opinions?

Update 11 The platform continues to sink into the darkness. Jingles judges that it might be possible to ride the platform down--to wherever it is going-- and avoid much of the horde pouring up the ramp. However, the Kith in the ritual masks have made their way to the top and are almost upon you. (C...

I believe we're waiting on GnomeBoy? I didn't update last night, so let's wait til tonight and then roll with it.

Update 10 The panels rise up into the ceiling as Jingles finagles with the levers. In a moment you find yourself facing the harsh, blood-stained sands of the arena. Over one hundred gladiators of various races are fighting to survive as the massive circle is surrounded by cheering Kith. You notice ...

A couple questions before I get to this turn: 1) Did Nurzual and Brandybland learn anything from investigating the panels last turn? 2) What (if anything) did Qort feel upon rolling those 3s? Jingles will make sure all levers are fully up, then turn the left-hand wheel at the bottom. If that produc...

Update 9 Stinky Pete hears a rumbling beyond the wall as Kettering throws the middle two switches. You're unsure what you did, but you certainly proved to yourself that the console is still active. Sir Kelven must feel a tinge of anxiety at standing on the platform after hearing that sound. It's cl...

Don't worry. Your action got picked up. I was waiting because I figured someone may have done something to cause those panels to change while you were looking at them .

If I lose track of anyone please let me know.

Waiting on input from Blackthorn and Soulcatcher (if they're still playing).

Quick clarification!

Blackthorn is right, there are six levers. Your Judge forgot how to count .

http://i.imgur.com/0jKACCN.png As you can see, there are six levers on the console. I'm diverging a bit here from the official description, so pretend that brick is metal :). Toby, knowing some of the Chaos script, would find that this script is contains nothing in common with it. You consider that...

Bilgewriggler, let's have Qort roll two separate 1d3 rolls! Your drink is taking effect now!

Update 8 The party makes their way through the rubble of the left-hand (western) corridor, and up a short stairway. At the top of the stairway the corridor expands into a strange chamber with grey metallic walls. The room forms a 40x20 rectangle, stretching long into the darkness. There are alien s...
