Sunday Game

We are playing this Sunday at 5:30pm. See ya there. Now that David has departed we have an opening for another player.

It looks like the majority of players are interested in playing good characters in the new campaign that will be beginning soon. Everyone should be thinking about what they want to be. The campaign will take place in the Silver Marches which is north and east of Waterdeep near the Spine of the World mountains. The party will be based out of Silvery Moon where they can win fame and fortune defending the city against the ever aggressive Mountain Orc nations. Please discuss with the others your character class so that we can have a good mix. We will begin the new campaign most likely in the latter part of April when my current, short term, plans for the Thayonestia party are complete.

Someone Volunteer, Please

I need a volunteer to email me a play by play style synopsis of each weeks adventure. I will post it here for those people who missed the game. In order to volunteer you must commit to having it written and emailed to me no later than the Tuesday following the game. You must be able to write in complete sentences, spell and have a little skill in writing. It does me no good if I have to edit and rewrite what you send me. I think this would be a really nice addition to the blog and it would be nice if one of you players would step up. If you write really well (no editing required on my part) I will grant you posting access to the blog in order to skip the email and middle man (me).

New Dwarven Forge!

My two cavern sets came in while I was away. They look incredible. I can't wait to add a cavern setting to the dungeon. Now we have to wait until June 1st for the cavernous rivers set followed by the cavernous lake set. I will likely have two sets of each pre ordered. Woot!

Game Sunday 3/26

We are on for this Sunday at 5:30. I will have everything set up and ready to go at 5:30. I hope everyone shows up on time or early as there are alot of magic items to allocate out to players. Additionally we will need to role play the repurchase of single use magic items. On that note please have your single use items converted back into gold prior to game time. I hope to see everyone on Sunday.

Purchase of Magic Items

The practice of purchasing one use magic items such as scrolls and potions will no longer be done outside of the game. We will roll play the purchase of all magic items from this point forward. All one use magic items purchased prior to today revert back to their standard gold piece value. You can purchase replacements for some of them this Sunday. You retain all one use magic items found during the course of an adventure. This practice was due to my laziness and resulted in serious game imbalance. I apologize for any heartburn that you might suffer due to this new policy but I am only human and sometimes make mistakes.

New Party

Now that the party is nearing that milestone where their levels and powers begin to tax my intellect it will soon be time to create another party. Over the next few months when people start to hit the high teens it will be more difficult to write for them and the adventures and battles will take considerably longer. You all caught a glimpse of this last night when it took all night for three rooms and one battle took two hours. It is this time when I like to start a new party which will allow me to swap back and forth between campaigns. The lower level people are very easy to accommodate and give me a break from the mental rigors of running a high level campaign. I have been doing things this way for twenty years.
I want everyone to start thinking about what they want to be in the new party. I have also been thinking about a good party based out of Silvery Moon in the savage north. Switching back and forth between good and evil provides a nice change of pace. Though I suggest a good party I am going to leave it up to you. If everyone wants two evil parties then I may go with an under dark campaign. I know that some of you are very attached to your current characters and may not want to make a new party but I assure you that the new characters soon become just as much fun. In the past I have had gaming groups with as many as three sets of characters in three different campaigns.

Sunday Game

There is a game this Sunday at the usual time of 5:30pm. It would be really nice if we could start at 5:30pm. If you are bringing someone use E-Tools to make their character prior to game time. Feel free to email it to me for printing.

Gen Con 2006

I am going to http://www.gencon.com this year and it would be really cool if some of you could come. In order to get rooms in the same hotel and get into some of the cool http://www.truedungeon.com/true/dungeon.html events we need to sign up now. GenCon is the largest and by far the coolest D&D convention. It is in August so that gives everyone plenty of time to plan and save up money. The 4 day con only costs $65 bucks but hotel and travel will be a chunk of change. Air travel is not as costly as it once was though. I am flying to Philadelphia next week and my tickets were $230. Post a comment if you want to go.
