"I could watch the dogs and horses, if that's the stratagem we choose," Barnaby offers.

I noticed I forgot to inform you all. I have the other gm's of the games I play in Discord. So when I informed them of it, I thought I informed every gm of my absence. I've been sick the last couple of weeks, but I'm finally starting to recover. Just constantly tired. I'll will read up on our progr...

Dulles, VA. Eerily similar planned communities of mixed-use buildings, shopping malls, and immense data centers, scattered thickly among cornfields. A major airport nearby. The year is 2040. The Android President is up for re-re-re-election. DHS surveils the physical populace for discontent; Meta mo...

Elcroon counted seven levels bottom to top.

There are three exits from this large store room; let's call them A, B, and C. Each exit has a solid wooden door set in it.

"I strain to think of tricks," Dramm says with abrupt grimness, "when all of me yearns to kill whatever lurks beyond these camps. Or kill again. I think it's dead already."

The Dead cut at Etul with the shiny glass-like blades of their naginata. Their expressions are blank, eyes glowing faint blue. Their skin has an oddly smooth appearance. Take 2 more Strain for total 7 / 18

The stickmaton pries open several crates and barrels. Mouldering flour, unidentifiable pulp, withered salt meat, etc. Nothing of value.

Etul attempts to take the legs out from one of the dead facing him, but whiffs his swing and leaves himself vulnerable to a strike in reply. 298350 That's a "6" → take 2 Strain for total 5 / 18 Etul … take 3 Strain for total 13/18 This also should have been total 5 / 18 bc you left a bunc...

Would anyone else love the idea of a cyberpunk game using the following rules? 3 Stats: Clever, Tough, and Connected +1(or more) for each useful item of Gear DS 8 (tricky) 10 (hard) 12 (really hard) 14 (epic) roll 2d6+Stat+Gear ≥ DS to accomplish a risky task set in 2040, Earth-bound. Thinking Dulle...

" Could Mastiff and her foster pups be off help somehow?" Barbaby wonders. The warg pups have grown fast. The noble bard can rest his chin on the shoulder of the taller one, when that pup stands proud.

"Do you possess the magic of disguise? Or you?" Dramm asks of Barnaby and Morwen. "Could we make a sortie on one camp in guise of the other, then fade away?"

Rhul flails at the dead ineffectively. Brute Check: [2d6]=4 Rhul should have had +1 for the crowbar, so total roll is 5 = take 3 Strain for total 13/18 One of the three Dead that had been harassing Etul shifts its attention to Rhul. Each of you now rolls [_3d6]+mod, using the lower two dice, v DS 8

"Our task is to scout and return," Dramm instructs his companions. " Jumping into the first fray that we might would be valiantly foolish."

Etul whirls the carbine around him, fending off the three assailants but making no real impact. DS 8

Anyone know that song?

Now I know a "new" band.

The "top" level looks like a vestibule of sorts, with faint daylight seeping from some next room. The flooring is marble tile.

The next level down is a large storage room half-filled with crates and barrels.

Rhul continues running, feinting a continued retreat, but will swing around to hit with his crowbar from behind as soon as the dead stop chasing him, or when Etul has fired his last shot, whichever happens first. Brute Check: [2d6]=7 Skulking Check: [2d6+1]=8+1=9 brute for the actual hit with the c...

I'm really curious, how do you know when you get there? The lever is labeled "↑" and "×" and "↓", no floor indicators.

"I'm not sure how long I can keep this up. If they don't drop back in another hundred paces I start blasting." 298204 Blast away ... the roll is DS 10 per Tech thread. Each success takes down one of the five Dead. You get two attempts before they're too close to shoot. Then the carbine is...

Dramm will go West, with Barnaby.
