The diceroller doesn't want to let me with my password, atpollard, please roll for me. Analog dice are fine, I trust you not to fudge anything.

If the man has noticed us, Remy shall try to open his throat to prevent screaming.

Remy went closer to the guard, but not with the intent of killing the man.
Not yet. If he had failed to spot the group, he'd live. If he was up to his task, he'd die quietly.
Sometimes, the reward for serving a master well is death. Especially when one has picked the wrong master, Remy muses.

"So where would the sun be in 3,5 or 5 more hours?", Remy inquired. "I'd say that after dawn, it's not like the sun would hide us, though monsieur Arthur should feel free to correct me. I need to clarify something that ALL of the CHARACTERS would understand. The sun moves very slowly...

"So where would the sun be in 3,5 or 5 more hours?", Remy inquired. "I'd say that after dawn, it's not like the sun would hide us, though monsieur Arthur should feel free to correct me. But if I'm right, it's best to approach them from a side where they don't expect trouble from. Eve...

Remy shrugged. "I would say, travel, scouting around for access, a quick attack under the cover of darkness and disguise, some pirate killing, and absconding with well-positioned slaves who should be grateful to their saviors...why? How do you do this kind of saving-pirate-victims stuff where y...

Glad to see you're back, atpollard, hoping that's a good thing! I will be forced to bore you all with my detailed plan to overthrow the US Government with a Constitutional Convention that restores the Divine Right Monarchy with Harry and Megan as King and Queen of North America ... [ let's face it, ...

Reading my mind man. :lol: It’s definitely interesting stuff to hear. Might have to look up those rules. Here you go... https://fudgerpg.com/products/fudgerpg.html And technically, Fate (being itself an iteration of Fudge) also uses Fudge dice 8-) . Personally, I prefer just using d6-d6. The range ...

That's seldom good news !

TBH, I didn't think so either. But him already being far enough to not hear the reply works for me just as well.

I'm sorry to hear your wife is sick (although I opened the IC first)...either way, take care of RL!
I should be back at 1-10-2021.

Remy, coincidentally, is already too far to hear either of them, so he doesn't reply. And his surprise wasn't meant to be overheard by them, either - he thought he was muttering under his breath.
Obviously that came out stronger than intended.

"Same way you grow a duck in a bottle: put it there, feed it through the opening" is fine.
"Because I'm the GM" would get me voting with my feet faster than I can run, though. Obviously I don't understand games !

Remy looked at Arthur in disbelief. "I don't know how a man can believe a design table to be a simple matter, and not understand humans", he muttered, but left the two with Diana on their own. If necessary, they could protect themselves, especially Diana... Instead, he forged ahead to find...

Remy just looks dumbfounded at this discussion... the idea that whether women are mentioned actually matters, is totally foreign to him. These foreigners. With islanders, if an woman becomes head of household, she can just do the same as any male head of household. Why do they have to complicate mat...

Been working on a sword and sorcery setting and I’d like to know which systems I could use. Originally I was going to use Openquest as I’ve never used it and would like to. But I would like to know what else is out there. Well, my go-to for S&S is Mythras, but it really depends on your tastes :...

"Us? Pirates? Messieurs, I'm offended!", Remy said, laughing. "Jamais de la vie!", he added, using an expression he'd learned from Jacques.
"So, messieurs, what are the odds of that fleet over there deciding to take us on?"

Remy "That is possible, but what if someone is willing to risk more, or less, than the others? A system where you can invest more or less, entitling you to an com-men-mesurate part of the profits, seems like the better option to me..." Remy is listening intently, and trying to remember th...

I am the only one interested in trade, it seems. You guys are sure you want Remy with the lowest Int+Edu score in the party to be our accountant:D? Then again, I believe trade can also be leveraged as influence, and makes for a pretty good excuse for Getting To Places if we want to Do Stuff there:)....

"We should really establish a ready sum for buying and selling cargo. Then everyone who wants to buy something the rest of us don't agree with can risk on his own funds", Remy suggests.

"I would advise us to buy some spices, some tin, and a lot of pharmaceyuticals....what a 50-cents word for medicines", Remy says. "We're travelling towards people who would have use for bronze, and tin is the part that's actually hard to find. Second, medicines are always in high dem...
