sorry guys, major internet connectivity issues... I'll catch up as soon as I can. But yes, the Action Thread 1 is supposed to be used to describe what you want to do to prep to depart. The action thread TOP is for the MO and andy SOPs etc... Give me a bit to catch up... sorry again. Doh! Sorry... s...

Yeah, most programmers can't communicate for sh!t if it isn't in Java. It isn't that they can't just provide useful design documentation for what they're programming; they have problems communicating in anything other than FB or a text message. Not good when I have to face-to-face with them or phon...

I would prefer asses to mules or donkeys, to facilitate lots of puns. :) Agreed on all the above, by the way - looks good. We may want more than one tent, depending on how big they are. In my 1e days we played the standard tent as a 2man, but if we increased the price a bit maybe we could get a mash...

I guess I would at least like 2 shieldbearers for a front rank in dungeons, then I'd get a spear to attack from the 2nd rank. I'd just pay them as opposed to giving them shares of treasure, although I realise that might not make a difference as far as xp is concerned. If it's ok with everyone, I'll ...

I actually like to hire as many hirelings as possible. Not only is it more in line with real old-school play, but it vastly improves the PC's chances of not getting killed

Awesome!

Argennian and Migellito upped the game by throwing Rogahn and Zelligar into their background stories!

Hmmm... maybe I'll add a bit more to the end of my story.

me - pushing the envelope since 1981.

hehe.. hope I didn't cause you too much trouble

Wouldn't that be to make sure nobody can track you?

Yeah, my plan to keep CON high to ensure high hit points didn't quite pan out like I planned.. lol

I've updated the dice roller to accept multiplication as a modifier. Here are some examples: This works Starting gold: [3d8x10] = 15x10 = 150 Note the 'x10' at the end, within the brackets. Currently, you can only use ONE modifier (+,-, and now x) at a time, but I hope to make further changes that ...

Great to meet you all, and I'm also really looking forward to this :) I've not had a chance to actually use the osric rules yet, in spite of having them downloaded forever. I'll also chime in now saying how much I appreciate Unseen Servant. We've been using it in the Greyhawk PbP game I've been runn...

Sorry guys I ws just thinking that second round picks would be as characters died :D I used OSRIC's npc builder as well as correlating with pregens from A1, L1 and an OSRIC module I can't remember. There were some chances for better that never panned out, but you never know what you'll find on the ...

hey Migellito, I don't have the books in front of me, but if the fighter THAC0 increasing every level for ftrs is an optional rule, I'm going to use it (it was optional in the DMG and I've always liked it) so your to hit numbers should get better by one. Also, sometimes it needs clarification, your...

Also, I'll go ahead and opt for magic package 3, Chain +1, Shield +1

Yep, I decided to arrange them that way on purpose I had thought about half-orc, but wasn't sure.. if it's ok, I would really like to make her a half-orc! I have the perfect pic for her, woohoo!

Hi! It appears I'm the fourth, so I will head over to the rules thread and read up, then go to the character thread and roll up a character. There aren't many things I've never played, so we'll see what the rolls look like
