    I don't feel comfortable running the game without the defender or having someone else run an unfamiliar character in an important role. I'm going to postpone this week's game until next week. Sorry everyone. For any future issues like this, I'm going to create a backup campaign with pre-genned characters and run one-shot scenario's. I just don't have time to put one together for a game tonight and get characters made for everyone.

    Damn... I just realized that September 6th is Labor Day in the USA. Will everyone be able to make it that day or not?

    I'll be able to run, barring any unexpected problems. My family doesn't have any plans for any celebrations or gatherings that day.

    I forgot to transfer the campaign file I worked on last night to my flash drive to bring it home from work. *sighs* Guess I'll spend the next couple hours re-doing my work.

    New sheet.

    Skills, race and speed are wrong but everything else should be right.

    Took Dwarven Weapon Training instead of Execution Axe Proficiency because... more damage. Took Headsman's Chop as my feat because we're good at knocking things prone and... more damage. New daily let's me knock things prone as a free action attack!

    Yeah, we should set up a couple barns so we can learn to hit their broad sides. Seriously, if I hadn't picked up Return from Death's Door, we probably would have gone down.

    We missed 80% at the time and we needed better then a 6/20 to HIT IT. I dont even understand the dice anymore.

    Yeah, the to hit rolls were abysmal at best last night. I have no idea what happened. I could fix it behind the scenes, but I don't think you guys want me to. And don't worry about it Vic, I figured you were just busy with the holiday.

    Nah, if I were to fix it behind the scenes... every miss would add a cumulative +1 bonus to your die roll (max of rolling a 20), which would reset when you hit. For each successive hit, you'd get a -1 to your die roll, min 1, until you miss.

    So I have a slight issue. My class schedule for this year is finally set after some waitlists and course juggling and...I have a class 6-8 pm on Mondays. :S Given that I have a short commute, this is likely to mean I won't be back home until 8:30-8:45 those days.

    Any suggestions? Can't really move the time that day because of everyone's schedules and Sky's work schedule, and I'm not sure whether different day would work for everyone.

    Everyone please post your available times and I'll see what I can do. The simplest solution would be to move it to Tuesday nights, 7p to 10p eastern, providing everyone can make that time slot.

    Tuesdays are acceptable - really any night's good for me, at least for the foreseeable future.

    mondays are one of The Girl's days off

    tuesdays would suit me better as a regular thing if it works for the rest of yall

    i don't think "hang on, i'm playing dungeons and dragons with some people online" would sit very well
