Out of character chat & questions.

Starting map up & beginning of adventure. A few characters need to be finished & approved. Do not post yet , until all characters are done & I give the OK. Thanks.

[Bloodaxe]

When all the characters are finished/approved we can start. I am ready.

[GreyWolfVT]

Aye aye I be ready Mr. Bloodaxe.

[Bloodaxe]

Aye aye I be ready Mr. Bloodaxe.

Thanks.

Just waiting for a few to finish up their characters. They have all been given the suggested changes & been approved, to the best of my knowledge. Just waiting on final characters being posted.

We need marching order. two by two & single file. Have light sources also.

[GreyWolfVT]

Well if it helps I have 8 torches and am a Fighter and a Dwarf so I can be in the front or back as needed for single or side by side in a two by two no sense putting a pure fighter in the middle of a march. Also might help that i have my infravision to fall back on.

That's for you guys to decide.
Who has the lights.
Who' s a front line fighter.
Who is guarding the rear.
Whatever.

Then the game starts. First map up and entry description.

As a cleric/magic-user, I figure I should be near the back. I also have infravision. Excited to see this kicked off!

Where should I post memorized spells?

Thanks,
Inferno

[Bloodaxe]

Here is fine for posting spells memorized.

[Inferno]

Thanks. Will post them asap.
For marching order, what does everyone think of this?

Assuming two abreast:
Dwarf fighter and Half Orc fighter in front.
Half Orc cleric/assassin and Halfling thief in middle.
Human monk and Human cleric/magic user in the back.

Thoughts?

That sound good to me. I can also put Bucky (the monk) up front to scout ahead and/or carry the torch (if the fighters are using shields).

For single file, how about: Monk, Dwarf fighter, half orc fighter, cleric/assassin, thief, cleric/MU?
Or: Dwarf fighter, halfling thief, half orc fighter, half orc Cleric/assassin, cleric/MU, monk? The second order allows the taller fighters to shoot over the shorter folk up front....

[ravenn4544]

Sounds good to me too. The Half Orc fighter's (Urgosh) combat tactics extend no further past his axe He does not have the ability or inclination to use a bow.

[Bloodaxe]

Decide who is carrying light sources & then we are good to go. You can now post in the game thread.

[Inferno]

The holy wizard can hold a lantern.

I like the second one. If we're attacked from behind, the cleric/magic-user will be our front line.

I am good with that.

[Scott308]

I am fine with any of those marching orders. The halfling thief would prefer not to carry a torch, as she is so short (I don't think anyone else wants her holding a flame that low anyway).

[Bloodaxe]

You can carry a torch & shield at the same time. But you will have to drop the torch to fight/use shield.

[GreyWolfVT]

completely forgot i had a shield i shall shield and carry torch editing my IC post.

Its no trouble. I figure the shield is strapped to the arm and your hand holds the torch/lantern ,etc.
But to actually use the shield effectively, you need the hand.
