OOC Megathread

So, the plan is to haul the gold (and share the burden) and not store it in the vault while you do recon at the bridge?

Eh, the vault sounds like a better idea.

That's the plan for now. Everyone can do what they want with their gold. Xara is not one to plan too far ahead.

I'm finally done moving so I should be able to post later this morning

So maybe sending the fighters in was a bad idea... At least we'll be there to absorb his early wrath if it turns stabby.

Oh sweet Jesus. We rolled a 3, 4, & 5. God, I hate dice sometimes.

This is what happens when Xara doesn't take the lead. :-P

I'm wearing the giant's spiked gauntlet...

Well then, Xara realizes that she's wearing the giant spiked gauntlet (I checked back in the OOC thread, not the main thread).

EDIT: I edited my last post to reflect this.

Can both of you edit your posts to include a Diplomacy check (then post here to let me know you've done so!) :)

With CHA?

Aye!

Done

I added one too, though I'm not sure if you meant for me to roll.

I did, both of you! As I read it, one of you was trying to convince him to come along and the other was trying to convince him to stay home. As he's already willing to help and likes you, I figured I'd let your (opposed) diplomacy rolls settle his decision ;)

Whoops! Sorry for the bad stealth!

If we get caught and killed, Paws will be blamed. :-P

Hope you're all ok with trying out this initiative idea. I've been a bit worried that the Us vs Them style (which I find is great for pace) might lead to a "surprise, you're all dead" should, say, the monsters in this battle have won initiative (as then Paws would've absorbed the full force of their might). So, if players *always* go first (with the exception of surprise rounds), then the system doesn't punish players for bad luck on init rolls... BUT, this makes init useless (and some of you may have put your Dex where you did just to improve your init scores, I dunno. Or you might take a feat to do that, but you wouldn't under this system). So, I thought we could do this Advantage thing instead.

If it works out, I'll be creating a feat to support it as well (something like: Fast Reactions: +2 Initiative. Your initiative Advantage bonus lasts for the duration of the combat. At the end of each round, your initiative result is reduced by 4).

Are we on the east or west side of the bridge?

Never mind. Just saw the combat map.

I can't help but feel that, as last in the initiative order, as everyone rushes off Kaiakas will be standing there like "what, what are we doing?"
