Picture is great - thanks! Can you describe in more detail what we remember from the warehouse. Cesare did take a good look when there - so how close are the other warehouses? Entry points? Rough height? What is it made of? ie could we prise away wooden slats probably at the back? Any other information that might be relevant? Sentries on the walls. Guard patrols?

I work on the priciple - don't ask, don't get! grin

oh and Zeim?

I also occassionally look over Kel's shoulder too.

So if Mikal suddenly comes down with a cold that causes him to be purple and orange plaid polka-dot speckled, you now know why.

Don't worry, Bekkah can heal you. I don't like him reading over my shoulder, but he's a real pest sometimes. smile

Being the psuedo numbers person that at times I am...

Could I get some numbers equaling the following things (any or all):


Amateur
Novice
Journeyman
Master
Expert
Skilled
Can perform in public without rotten veggies and fruit being thrown

What do those numbers mean? I know the higher then number the better but....

Oh! It's actually very easy Raven, and why I love Runequest.

The number is, literally, your percent chance of doing something. For example, if you have a climbing skill of 50% it means you succeed 50% of the time ... if you have a climbing skill of 75% it means you succeed 75% of the time.

Very intuitive and very straightforward.

(technically its a roll with a d100, get below your skill level you succeed - low rolls are good rolls in Runequest).

Lets see ... below 25% and you are basically untrained. Between 25 and 50 you are learning, 50 to 75 and you are good at it, 75 to 90 and you are really good at it and 90 and above you may start to think about getting into a fight with Dandy, Barris or Rafe.

Just remember - a 75% chance of doing something is good. you succeed more tan you fail by a wide margin. But it also means that you still have a 25% chance of failing.

For example, in the combat between Celi and Mikal, Celi did surprisingly good the first round and Mikal - with much better combat stats - didn't. However, the dice went back to the more probable results the second round ...

Wolf - <looking innocent> I have two very mischievous sons home from school. They have access to my computer and my log-on ids and passwords. Anything I ever post you don't like came from them <points finger> Really. Honest. <fingers crossed> smile

Zeim... Careful there. Wolf may start blaming Mikal's misfortunes on Stupid Boy Cat. smile

FYI for all... just waiting on Gypsy so I can post THE PLAN (toss the tablets into the air), after which our Diabolical GM can write another Long Post (tell us where they land).

Wolf - You really didn't have to label who was who on that drawing. The figures are so life-like! I can see Darian's dark hair and Cesare's mustache smile

The one in the alley drinking Muscatel from a paper bag is Daxia.

Daxia needn't worry. We sort of followed her plan. We did take a wagon....., after that <shrug> smile

I DID change my last post, which probably won't affect Kadri's action as Daxia is still distracting the guy between them... just distracting him in a different way.

What can I say? I'm letting Daxia take out my frustration with Mooch on the rotten NPC. And NPCs are a penny a fullhand.

May Krysta enjoy his company.

<snarl>

(Yes. It's been a bad day.)

Yeah I'm waiting now. While Bekkah would obviously go towards the much more seriously injured Darian, I have to imagine that dropping the girl down took a lot less time than Darian dropping all her equipment one at a time, then falling down. If for some reason that's not true, then she'd jump down from the barrel and help Dazi catch the woman.

Oooh, if you try to help with the way I'm seeing it in my brain, you'll probably just get in the way. smile Wait til we're both down, then rush over.

I am confused. Time wise part of our group seems further ahead then the other. We also seem in several places at once.

I've sent to Woof for clarification.

I think some posted past others.

Yo! Art!

PLEASE put Kadri's name atop of her posts, especially when they have an action in them ... I almost missed one of yours today. If it can be in bold it would help too; it makes sure I don't miss anyone when I'm doing my 'did I remember everyone' check smile

Thanks!
