This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

What do we see with the door open and apparently plenty of light?

Quote from: Benoist;424806You actually do! That was VERY close.

What are you doing now? (Your initiative order - Segment 4)

Ah, nothing beats an entrance like a spirited charge through a flaming doorway. :)

Quote from: Sigmund;424808What do we see with the door open and apparently plenty of light?
It's pretty hard to see at the moment (JUST before your segment) because the door is open a third of the way, blocked by some stuff inside the room. You can see movement and shadows. Goblins away from the door... hard to tell more at that precise moment. So basically you've got to choose whether you want to hold your action, or follow Ylarum inside the room as he charges inside (I guess).

Hehe. :D

I mentally make note of everyone in the armory. If all are present I am going to sprint back into the main room and move just south of the pressure plate getting my sling out. I don't want anything trying to retreat out that door without us knowing it, or without a fight if they try to flee or attack us from the rear.

That's a great idea. Ben, can I change my statement of intent to go with Lilaxe?

Then I will go with him, bow and arrow ready. Just got an idea ;)

Form the group wisely, make sure you share goals and means.
Set norms of table etiquette early on.
Encourage attentive participation and speed of play so the game will stay vibrant!
Allow that the group, milieu and system will from an organic symbiosis.
Most importantly, have fun exploring the possibilities!

Clarification on the state of the game at this point:

Waiting on Rissthil to decide whether he uses his short bow, and whoever (Nimten?) wants to shoot or cast a spell.
Then Ylarum and Co. barge into the room, as I understand it.
