Re: Entering the Pod-Caverns

Luthandier will descend... second-to-last of all. But I'll wait until the ladder is empty to do it. For now I'll step back up the corridor two paces to watch that way.

Re: Entering the Pod-Caverns

Luthandier looks up and around at the ceiling and walls ahead of him, before looking down at Kelsey. When she's ready to proceed I'll move up as close as I can to the waterfall while staying on level ground.

Re: Entering the Pod-Caverns

Luthandier checks his gear while the others search. "I need no light, if I am posted in front. Probably I will perish up there, but such is the risk of traveling underground. If that cave mouth is not itself a trap, I am ready to enter." Carrying sword and shield I believe, though if the c...

Re: OOC Thread

Pretty well decided on an elven fighter/magic-user. Picked Sleep, and rolled Identify and Feather Fall. Need equipment figured out and I'll get a character sheet up. I rolled 90 on gold, and after armor and weapons I'm afraid I'm not bringing much for hirelings. That's bad old school play, I'm aware...

So between the four base classes, the world's my oyster. I may go fighter for survivability. Has anyone else picked class? Are we using weapon specialization?

Re: The Pod-Caverns of the Sinister Shroom [OSRIC]

Never tried [4d6], started with [4d6k3], tried [4d6c1].

Just now trying them one at a time, and it's working. As I said though, the whole line was working in the dice sandbox, so no idea why it wouldn't work in the real thing.

Anyway: 12,9,9,12,9,10,13. Drop one of the 9s. Whoo!

Re: The Pod-Caverns of the Sinister Shroom [OSRIC]

As the game suggests 6-8 characters I would recommend each of you add a henchman to your character so that the party is more balanced. Stat method? Dice roller? I have pbp'd before on another board and enjoyed it (link if you want), but this will be my first game on unseen servant. I may have a few...

Re: Old School Mega-Dungeon (LL)

I'm late to the party, but I would love to get in this game.

On treasure, it's been my experience in high mortality games that it's hard to overdo. People buy armor, equipment, raise dead when they can, then they die anyway and start over anyway.

Re: What would you like to play/run? (Interest Catch-all)

I've been reading Qelong (fantasy effing Cambodia hexcrawl by Ken Hite), and playing in an ACKS game on another forum. I'm thinking I could run an ACKS Qelong game after the new year.

Re: greetings

Welcome aboard! There is plenty of old school D&D to be found here. I might be interested in trying L5R or Fiasco if you decide to run those at some point. Thanks. At the moment I've got my fix for L5R and I'm likely to end up back in D&D next time I run a game, but I can't rule out coming ...
