Good timing - a little early though. Not yet - I'll reach out, but hopefully it will be obvious. I will be soliciting player/character input later today/this evening.

Please give your character Gauntlets of Ogre Power; so he'll have that and +1 axe I think?

[GreyWolfVT]

that's be why I figured it would be good to ask first.

Everyone, welcome Dram to the group. As long as he/she can get his/her character ready within next 24 hours, we should be ready to roll...

I may drop the NPC F/MU/T and let Skyzar (1/2E MU/T) replace him.

[GreyWolfVT]

Welcome Dram don't worry you have only missed Char creation and random chatter that is all OOC

Hey, Dram!

[Dram]

Hello everyone, Thank you for the welcome.


GM
Are you able to look over the character sheets? I would like to know if my character sheet is correct.

[shaidar]

hi dram!

When you have your character sheet open at the top it should say something like

Code: Select all

To embed a read-only version (preview) of this character sheet into the Unseen Servant forums, use this code in your post:
[sheet]1824[/sheet]

but yours will have a different number to mine which is 1824.

hope that makes sense

[Dram]

Shaidar

Yes I have a ID number.

[FronkyDondo]

Shaidar

Yes I have a ID number.

Go to the "Character" forum for Hanted Mines of Gomor, add new post/reply, enter: [sheet]your number[/sheet]

Ready, armed and willing! Should be all systems go.

[Dram]

Also ready and armed

[Starbeard]

Got my macros ready, I'm set to go.

My memory is telling me in AD&D, all damage is multiplied during a Backstab, not just the base weapon damage. I believe this was clarified by the sage at some point. Am I correct or just suffering from dementia?

[Dram]

I have all my macros completed except backstabbing I cannot get to work properly. to hit: [1d20+5], to dam: [1d4+2x4] .

The damage section it will not work with +2 and multiplyer of 4.

I guess that you could at least place the x4 after the brackets so it appears as a reminder in the results "[1d4+2]x4":
[1d4+2] = 3+2 = 5x4

... PS. the notes for Skyzar list backstab as x3 not x4, so either the macro or the notes need adjusting [or I mis-remember how the backstab works, which is not unthinkable ]

To be honest, that's how me and my brother always did it - so yeah, you get to multiply everything. One of the perks of being a thief. That and the lousy THACO - I guess that evens it out.

[Dram]

Thank You that will work. Hope the site admins will be to make a solution.

Dram, I'm curious, why a multiplier of 4 on the backstab? Shouldn't it by x3?
