Northlands Saga 0: Spears in the Ice

Getting things in order before recommitting myself to this scenario. I posted our new rules in the Rules Negotiations for easy review.

Also, no, you're not missing anything in the current scene. I have shared virtually everything that the adventure provides--and then some! Essentially, it's an encounter with skeletons, and I added details of my own to make the author's presumed intent for the encounter actually happen.

I'm just reminding you of how the old school games I play/run tend to go. For example, I recall that your first intention was simply to ride past the encounter. Oftentimes there is a dialogue between player and GM. "Is there a ... nearby? Okay, so I..." "You said they are using bronze weapons, right? Okay, I ... " Sometimes the scene grows or receives detail based on player questions arising from schemes the players may have. Often the Die of Fate is used to answer the more debatable targets of those questions.

Ah yes. Well, bear in mind that I am at time a brute at heart, and will sometimes want to just crush my foes -- or die trying. :)

I've been distracted lately as well, work as usual and get the second O.S.R. sessions squared away.

Right -- no pressure on this one, but I want to make sure you're not waiting on me. Are you?

Ha ha! No I am not waiting on you. You're totally waiting on me! I see that roll that absolutely did not do anything. I have to get my thoughts together--and our new rules--and post something sooner or later.

Cool. Just checking. I did know you were ruminating on the house rules.
