Smon: GM: For three days Krens' Cairn has been assailed by monstrous phantasms, ghosts that coalesce from the mists, then vanish.
Smon: The sleep of the soldiers is disturbed by strange and horrible dreams.
chris107: "Bah! Witchery!"
DESTROYERBILL: we vvoald levol up yoare harfling to level7 at least
Smon: Krens: "They employ their mind magic against us... I have warded as best I can, but they are many..."
chris107: Each day, Hakeem will parade the battlements taunting Yusan for his cowerdice.
chris107: Challenging the warlord to come out from behind his witches skirts and fight like a man.
DESTROYERBILL: ha
chris107: (I think he's level 6 all ready Bill  )
DESTROYERBILL: yousans a scrady cat
chris107: Yeah! He's a scardy cat
DESTROYERBILL: level 6 is weak
Smon: One bit of good news - Krens' warriors are swollen by defectors from the Ghinarian lords who submitted to Yusan, and now number some 120, though they lack the ferocity of Hakeem's 125 Altanian warriors.
chris107: (He has a +1 short sword called Hornet, Bill  )

chris107: "You follow this tired old fool? He will send you to your deaths and flee like the woman he is!"
chris107: Hakeem spits noisily from the wall. Laughing loudly.
chris107: Hakeem watches the horizon for the shapes of Dragons.
chris107: And hopefully the stones or the sendings can be used to combine our forces into a devestating surprise attack?
DESTROYERBILL: the dragons coame out of the hirizen with wivens and fliying dragon born soasers and the foot men
chris107: Thuruar dropping his Flame Strike or Blade Barrier etc onto any wizards stupid enough to bunch together?
Smon: Among the Ghinarian warriors defending Krens' Cairn, Hakeem finds old Balthus of Selatine, once Weaponmaster to Lord Hytirus Vex, and his wife Iris.
chris107: Yay!
Smon: The enemy stay well back, hidden by the mists.
chris107: "Master Balthus! How good to see you again. How goes Lord Vex?"
Smon: Balthus: "Hakeem! Tis good to have you here - and to have your warriors, even better!" He grins, grasping Hakeem's arm.
Smon: His face darkens. "Vex is lost - a broken man since he gave in to Oriax... He drinks himself to death, alone in his hall but for one slave girl who yet stays by him."
chris107: "Ahhhh that is a shame. A good man wasted."
Smon: Balthus: "I would have glady given my life, fighting by his side - but I would not stay to see what Selatine has become."
chris107: "Oriax has much to answer for. I shall have his head when we have finished our current business."
chris107: "We shall yet save Lord Vex. And have you and Iris back in Selatine."
Smon: A lookout calls from the walls: "The Wyverns! The wyverns are coming!"
chris107: "Why he gifted Malenn to me in that very Hall. We are married now you know and have a child on the way!" Hakeem's smile lights up the dark room
Smon: At that moment - coincidence? - the sun breaks through the roiling grey mists that have cloaked the Cairn for long days.
chris107: "The Wyverns! Yay! For the Dragonborn and Shieldbighter!"
Smon: Balthus: "Congratulations, my friend! Iris too is expecting... he looks up, sunlight on his grizzled face.
Smon: Sunlight shines on the great draconic forms of a dozen great wyverns and their Dragonborn warriors as they fly over the enemy army, on to the Cairn.
chris107: "Congratulations yourselves! Our boys will learn to fight together in Vex Hall!"
chris107: Hakeem rushes to the battlements to wave!
DESTROYERBILL: i wave back
Smon: Shieldbiter sees an army of nigh on 800 besieging the high tower of Krens' Cairn, a low outer stone wall and sundry outbuildings.]
Smon: Shieldbiter spots Hakeem and waves.
chris107:
chris107: "Our allies are here!" He waves them down to the courtyard to meet Krens and Balthus etc.
chris107: "They will have news of our other forces no doubt?"
Smon: His father, brothers and sisters, and sundry relatives with him land in the courtyard, packed with the great beasts.
chris107: Hakeem greets his friend warmly.
chris107: Shaking his great scaley hand
chris107: "You made it!"
Smon: A huge elderly Dragonborn nods to Hakeem. "I am Chief Ruffar, Shieldbiter has told me much of you."
chris107: He greets his relatives respectfully
Smon: Sarene the Pirate dismounts from behind a female Dragonborn. "Thanks for the lift, Dragaleena!"
chris107: "Chief Ruffar. I am honoured to meet you. And grateful for your help in defeating this tyrant Yusan."
chris107: "Sarene!"
Smon: Ruffar nods, hefting his axe. "Happy to help our friends."
DESTROYERBILL: how old are you yoang man)said ruffr
Smon: Sarene grins, punching Hakeem's chest playfully. "Quicker than you expected, eh! With 300 men just south at Talholm!"
chris107: (I think Hakeem is about 20)
chris107: "We need to strike them with surprise.
Smon: OOC Within reason Bill can play the Dragonborn.
chris107: "Have the Ghinarean Lords Verius and Talholm joined us too?"
DESTROYERBILL: dragaleana swoons at hakeams bulging musols
chris107: OOC Of Course! They are Bill's Dragonborn!
chris107: hehe Bill!
Smon: Sarene: "They saw us fly in, but Chief Xatchar is marching the men north. Usarus of Talholm has joined us with fifty men."
DESTROYERBILL: ha
chris107: If they can fall on the rear of Yusan's forces....
Smon: Sarene: "Rey is seeking to get Kaldrac of Verius to join us too - no word when we left. He may prefer to sit it out."
chris107: (Can the stones/sendings be used toplan the timing of our attacks?)
Smon: Sarene: "Yusan is smart - he'll soon know they're coming. Probably lift the siege and march south against them."
chris107: (Any news back re the Amazons?
chris107: The we must chase him down!
DESTROYERBILL: yea
DESTROYERBILL: yae
chris107: "Shielbiter, can a couple of your Wyver riders fly high enough to scout what he's doing?"

chris107: Hakeem sends a prayer to Bondorr to save the brave Dragonborn!
Smon: As dawn light glimmers over the eastern sea, Thuruar finishes his long incantation... And Gruffs' eyes blink open!
Smon: Gruffs: "Oww.. that hurt."
Smon: OOC Stopping there.
chris107: "Two dozen of them Kren? If he had such power....."

5:52pm  2016-4-27 Smon Has entered the room
Smon: Hi Kjato
5:52pm  2016-4-27 DESTROYERBILL Has entered the room
Smon: Hi Bill
Kjato Ragfoot: Hello!
DESTROYERBILL: hi
Smon: Looks like chris has a bit of Internet trouble.
Kjato Ragfoot: Again?
Kjato Ragfoot: His internet must be cursed, he had it just repaired.
DESTROYERBILL: he was in the dF loange a minet ago
Smon: Well he seems to have vanished... Last session - http://smons.blogspot.co.uk/2016/04/session-72.html - You defeated Yusan's outriders ok, but some escaped. You reached Krens' Cairn with your army, looking back you saw smoke rising from Trade, presumably sacked by Yusan.
DESTROYERBILL: cris is not hear now
Kjato Ragfoot: Yes, Chris already told me. No idea why he allowed the patrol to escape.
DESTROYERBILL: trvjyyhg67,slkglkthr,irdj,mrg76uiopduyokfghjut7uskmvucxkjgcuisvhigvgjjhguhfhnhjhth
Smon: Hakeem wants to defend Krens' Cairn, wait for Shieldbiter to return with his clan & the Red Tiger nomads, and have Thuruar do Sendings to Temple-Tomb of Belaras & Meda of Thusia asking for help.
Kjato Ragfoot: That sounds sensible.
DESTROYERBILL: oops ment to hit backspace button
Smon: Well the lesser brigands galloped off while the Chosen Axe were still fighting, so the had a big head start.
DESTROYERBILL: on my last post
Smon:
5:58pm  2016-4-27 chris107 Has entered the room
Kjato Ragfoot: That is why you put a blade bareer in front of the wannabe escapees.
Smon: Chris!!
chris107: Simon, Bill, Kjato
Kjato Ragfoot: Then they rush to their own demise.
Kjato Ragfoot: Hello Chris
DESTROYERBILL: yay yoar hear cris
chris107: RRRRAAWWWWRRRRRRR Bill
DESTROYERBILL: grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
DESTROYERBILL: g
chris107: I sent a PM to Graham but no reply.
chris107: He missed last night's game too
DESTROYERBILL: test
chris107: Difficult colour to see
DESTROYERBILL: #52ffa1
Smon: (Bill is stuck on green)
chris107: Dragon Green?
DESTROYERBILL: #52ffa1
Smon: More turquoise I'd say.
Smon: >>Smon: Krens: "Do you know how many warriors Captain Sarene will bring north?" chris107: okay, good to go again chris107: "Not of the Dragon folk or our friends. But she will bring her own howling Pirates that number 60. Her ships can hold 300 more souls and I expect them to be bursting at the seems. Plus the Dragonfolk are bringing mighty Wyrims!" Smon: Krens' eyes widen. "Then we could close to match Yusan's numbers..." Smon: Odense: "All depends on if we can hold here. Against the Wizards..." chris107: "And with you and good Thuruar we are a match for them in magic too!" Smon: Krens: "I hope so. This Unseen Conclave is powerful in Illusion." chris107: "Thuruar is a mighty High Priest of Athena. His magic is strong. He can call forth mighty allies from the Heavens!" Smon: "They say the defenders of Theber saw a mist, from which came forth hordes of demons..." Smon: Odense: "That's good to hear." chris107: "And there soldiers fall like wheat beneath our blades. Only this morning just Thur and I bested 20 of their number including a champion taking barely a scratch!" Smon: Odense: "So, we can feed your men a couple weeks, long enough for your allies to get here." chris107: "Bah! Illusions and tricks to fool peasents. Thuruar can actually bring forth the most powerful servants of his mistress!" Smon: Krens nods. "With your power, our walls, and the stout hearts of our men, I think we have a chance." chris107: "Stout men can not fall before jakals!" Smon: "But Yusan has over six hundred - more, with the conscripts." chris107: "And his men are used to besting women and town guardsmen. Not seasoned warriors and migty magicians!" Smon: Odense nods to Hakeem. "Yusan is a jackal. He took Theber by surprise, He'll not breach our walls." chris107: "Now we have a little surprise for Yusan in that department. Organised by friend Rey here." He gestures to the elegant rougue who is no doubt chatting to the servant girls Smon: There's a sad lack of feminine pulchritude in Krens' hall, but Rey contents himself chatting with a skinny young maid. chris107: hehe Smon: OOC think I'll stop soon, say 9pm. Smon: "A surprise?" chris107: "Now that the conscripts have seen what becomes of their town regardless of their loyalty. I think we may rely on them." chris107: OOC Yeah sure Simon. You've run an amazing amount of sessions in a short time in this campaign. You must be ready for a break? Smon: Krens nods. "Yusan has doubtless slain the Trade conscripts. If those of Verius and Talholm yet live, freeing them would be worth much..."<<
DESTROYERBILL: lol
DESTROYERBILL: good
chris107: Also along with Verius and Talholm we need to get the Amazons on side if we can.
DESTROYERBILL: whate
Smon: OOC - With our tired nurse friend Rebekah coming round tonight might be a short session, but I can GM more on Friday if you like.
chris107: Or at least get Talholm to let our friends dock safely so they can fall on the rear of Yusan's forces.
Kjato Ragfoot: I should be able to play on Friday, but cannot promise right now.
chris107: Friday should be good for me.
DESTROYERBILL: not for me
chris107:
Smon: GM: You eventually retire for the night, waking early next day.
Smon: Oh yeah, Ingrid is snaffling Bill.
chris107: We need your Dragons and Wyverns Bill!
Smon: I'd like to move things forward quick.
Smon: Hakeem's Altanians get to work helping bolster Krens' Cairn's defences.
Smon: If you want to do Sendings, do them now.
Kjato Ragfoot: OK. What do we want to tell whom?
chris107: My vote would be Verius, Talhome, The Amazons, Thusia, Janna Vex
chris107: Also making sure that sarene and our allies from the south can get safe passage through Talholm
Smon: GM: Shieldbiter - you are currently aboard ship, sailing south with the Southern wind on your scales. It feels good to be back in the southern seas.
DESTROYERBILL: whate aboat shild biter talk to him
chris107: And if we can track down Lord Vex and his warband, so much the better.
chris107: Shieldbiter is on board with Sarene?
DESTROYERBILL: good
Kjato Ragfoot: The problem is: I can only send to people I know. Thuruar never met Talhome, the Amazons or Lord Vex.
chris107: We need him and his mighty Dragon allies to strike North through Talholm and into Yusan's (hopefully) besieging forces.
DESTROYERBILL: g
Smon: Shieldbiter you are at the prow of Lady Spite that morning - Sarene the pirate queen points out the great spire of Oriax's Tower on a headland to the west.
chris107: Ah okay Kjato, I was clutching at straws I guess?
chris107: Then we need to send Rey to Talholm to make arrangnments.
Smon: Sarene: "An evil wizard lives in that lighthouse. Best avoided!"
chris107: Before we are invested.
DESTROYERBILL: good
Smon: Sailing on down the eastern coast, Shieldbiter & co leave the Ghinarian Hills behind. Now to the west is a lush meadowland, the Vale - domain of Yusan the Warlord.

Smon: Sarene: "Merfolk!"
Smon: "They're usually friendly..."
DESTROYERBILL: frends mabye
chris107: Yay!
Kjato Ragfoot: Oh. Invite them in. If we beat Yusan, they can have their citadel of water back.
DESTROYERBILL: good
Smon: Six mermen & mermaids wave at you - the leader, a green-haired male, calls out: "Hail there, land-folk!"
Smon: Sarene orders the ships to heave-to, and lowers a boat so she, two lieutenants & Shieldbiter can talk to the merfolk at their level.
DESTROYERBILL: hello im giting my dragonborn soilgers to wipe out yousan
Smon: The leader greets you. "I am Bolgreth - so you are Dragonborn?"
DESTROYERBILL: yes

Smon: The red vitality potion pulses with a dull light, calling to mind a heartbeat.
chris107: Nice
Smon: Fish Scales float in the muddy Fish Friendship potion.
Smon: A fishy eyeball floats in the yellow potion of clairvoyance.
chris107: ewwwww
Smon: Sarene & her men also do some trade with the merfolk, then bid them farewell.
Smon: Bolgreth: "Fare thee well - watch out for the Merrows! Hadst thee passed this way at night..."
Smon: @Kjato are your Sendings ready?

Kjato Ragfoot: Jana Vex: "We are defending Kern's Cairn against Yusan. Have 500 men. Send aid if you can."
Smon: Jana: "I'll tell the High Priest." She doesn't sound too hopeful.
Kjato Ragfoot: Lady Thusia "We have 500 men against Yusan. Hakeem worries about Oriax. Can you help us?"
chris107: (Thanks Thur)
Smon: Meda: "...I'll do what I can, Thuruar. What kind of help do you require?
Kjato Ragfoot: (I am not sure - did Thuruar ever meet Lord Vex?)
Smon: (no, not afaik) Shieldbiter & co sail on south through the day, making good time on a northerly wind.
DESTROYERBILL: yat
DESTROYERBILL: yay
DESTROYERBILL: 500 men.
Smon: To the west Shieldbiter sees the hills that mark Oricha's northern border, the ancient treaty block shining in the sunlight.
Smon: Sarene: "Excellent time - we should reach Dianceht tonight."
Kjato Ragfoot: To Lady Meda: "Intercept Yusan's messengers to Water Citadel and Carchimish. Ambush any fleeing brigands. Contact amazons."
chris107: (Oh I like that Thur)
DESTROYERBILL: amazons.
Smon: Meda: "I'll send out the Amazon Guard of Thusia and send word to the amazons of Highhaven."
DESTROYERBILL: amazons
chris107: Yay!
DESTROYERBILL: yayx2
Smon: "I'll tell Queen Artemisis to go to you."
Smon: (Artemisia)
Smon: GM: Are you going to contact the Ghinarian lords to the south?
chris107: If we can
Kjato Ragfoot: (I do not know any of them)
chris107: I mentioned Rey upthread if not by magic
Smon: OK, you send Rey south to talk to them.
Smon: Talholm is closest, are you planning to have Shieldbiter's fleet land there?
DESTROYERBILL: ye
chris107: Asking for their help or at least a safe passage for the Dragonborn
DESTROYERBILL: s
Smon: ok
Smon: Next day - Shieldbiter, you reach the elven port of Dianceht by dawn, to find Wyvern-Riders already circling the spires.
DESTROYERBILL: yes
chris107: KEWL!
Smon: Not all the Red Tiger & Dragnborn have yet arrived, but your father, brothers & sisters are here.
Smon: All the Royal Wyverns, including a young one for Shieldbiter.
chris107:
Smon: Shieldbiter's father greets him gruffly with a cordial punch to the shoulder that would fell a mere human.
Smon: "HOW WAS THE NORTH, MY SON?!"
DESTROYERBILL: hay sis can you ride on afer siss vvyven
Smon: Shieldbiter's sister Dragaleena scowls. "Yer wot?"
DESTROYERBILL rolls 1d20 and gets: 4,
Smon: "I ain't givin' up me wyvern! Hisss!"
DESTROYERBILL: dad can one of you give up ther royal wyven for a bit
Smon: Chief Ruffar of the Dragonborn shrugs. "PLENTY OF TIME TO SQUABBLE LATER!"
Smon: Shieldbiter's brothers Fy-tarr and Dess-troyar greet him with roars and gouts of flame.
Smon: Nearby elves take cover.
chris107: hehe
DESTROYERBILL: i need the wyvin for a chiften to ride hoos my frend please
Smon: A group of Altanian warriors, heavily armed, can be seen coming down to the dock - Chief Xatchar Red-Tiger and his warriors. Sarene greets them.
DESTROYERBILL rolls 1d20 and gets: 9,
Smon: They shake their heavy heads, growling.
DESTROYERBILL: well a normal wyven
Smon: Ruffar: "ONLY THE WARRIORS OF THE DRAGONBORN MAY RIDE THE ROYAL WYVERNS!! Maybe a little one for your friend."
Smon: GM: Sarene and co begin to load the Dragonborn and Red Tigers onto her ships.
DESTROYERBILL: fine
DESTROYERBILL: s
Smon: Meanwhile far to the north, dawn comes up to reveal Yusan's army encamped only a mile or so west of Krens' Cairn...
chris107: Grrrrrrr
Smon: On the battlements of Krens' Cairn, Hakeem Krens & co scan the host - looks like 700 or so, maybe 800.
chris107: Hakeem will collect several throwing stones through out his stay and pop them into his pouch.
DESTROYERBILL: stone
Kjato Ragfoot: Can we conjure the shadow of a dragon that will cause dragon panic among the enemy when they try their first assault?
chris107: How are his forces disposed?
Smon: A parley party moves forward under a flag of truce - you see Yusan, the Blue Mage Ilyra, Enos Snake-Eyes the sorcerer, and several of the brigand lords.
Smon: They stop well beyond bowshot.
chris107: "Watch out for their magic."
chris107: "Kren, It's your place...."
DESTROYERBILL: hay dess stroyer are you going to fight yousans army and biter the same
Smon: They are arrayed in a semi-circle to the west. Currently extending round to the south, but the gap there not yet closed - and they're not enough for solid wall at this range.
chris107: I will be at your shoulder or I can tell them to go the Hell right now.
chris107: (Thanks)
Smon: Krens: "I'm willing to talk with them, though I doubt it will be fruitful."
Smon: (Shieldbiter's brothers are happy at the prospect of fighting Yusan, a terrible criminal & outlaw from their Red Tiger friends.)
chris107: (Good)
DESTROYERBILL: zaack
Smon: You hear Yusan's aide call out: "Lord Krens! The Great Yusan wishes to speak with you and your friends!"
DESTROYERBILL: oops why backspace so near to send
chris107: H will stand by Krens. Looking relaxed and confident.
Smon: Krens, Odense, Hakeem & Thuruar head out to converse with the Parley party.
Smon: Yusan grins at the sight of your approach.
chris107: Hakeem grins back
DESTROYERBILL: DESTROYERBILL
Smon: Yusan: "Krens! You are hopelessly outnumbered. My wizards command sorceries beyond your power. Submit and join me, as all the other lords have, and you shall be well treated!"
Smon: "Resist, and I will destroy your Cairn, slay every man, take the women and children as slaves."
Smon: Yusan glowers. "As I destroyed Trade yesterday."
chris107: Hakeem loosens but doesn't draw Bloodletter
chris107: Just enough so all can hear it rattle
Smon: Yusan looks at Hakeem, hand on sword hilt.
chris107: "I wasn't at Trade yesterday." He says flatly
Smon: "Don't think to break parley, pup."
DESTROYERBILL: tell yusan the dragonborn are coming
chris107: "I'll fight you now or after the parley old man."
Kjato Ragfoot: No, we do not want to spoil the surprise.
chris107: (No we need to surprise him Bill)
DESTROYERBILL: okay
Kjato Ragfoot: Oh, Trade. A little, defenseless town - and you needed 800 men to burn it?
Smon: Yusan grins. "I've killed better men than you... and never say I shirk a challenge!"
chris107: "Bondorr can decide this. Or do you stand behind the skirts of your witches now?"
Smon: Yusan draws a massive greatsword, coursing with green witch-fire.
DESTROYERBILL: (over back soath the dragonborn are giting ready to atack but it will take them a while
Smon: "Bondorr's sword..." Yusan looks at it admiringly.
Kjato Ragfoot: If they scared your that much, your army cannot be that impressive.
chris107: Hakeem says a silent prayer to Bondorr and draws Bloodletter. "Lets save a lot of lives."
Smon: Ilyra: "Master... Is this wise?"
chris107: "It is good to see you have honour. I may yet be proud to call you Father."
Smon: Yusan glowers at Hakeem. "I welcome you to my Hall... You repay me by killing my men."
chris107: "I will kill many more if I have to. We have a greater enemy than you."
Smon: "I sacked Trade because it pleased me... As it will please me to kill you now, Hakeem Yusan's son. Die well."
DESTROYERBILL: guys be carful ther might be traps on the fild coverd by ulooshins
Smon: Yusan raises his sword and spurs his horse forward... Hakeem too?
chris107: "Die well. BONDORRRRRRR!"
chris107: Yes
Smon: Yusan: "BONDORRRR!!!"
chris107: But I thought H was on foot
Smon: The two great warlords come together...
Smon: Normally you'd be on horse for the parley.
Smon: Good for swift retreat.
chris107: okay, is H trained to fight from horseback though? If not he will stand on his own feet as Bondorr made him.
Kjato Ragfoot: (Shall I kill Yusan's entourage while you duke it out with your father? Or do we save that for later?)
Smon: (The honourable thing is to let the duel play out)
chris107: (Got to be your choice Kjato, but I know what I'd do  )
Smon: Hakeem dismounts to fight, Yusan does likewise.
DESTROYERBILL: save for later the awdsome batle is yet to coame
chris107: (Also Simon I believe I still haven't used the inspiration?)
chris107: "It is a good day to die."

chris107: I don't know
Kjato Ragfoot: I can give an ally twice per short rest a +10 on an attack roll.
Kjato Ragfoot: War Priest ability.
Smon: So you're going to cheat?
chris107: (Is that against the rules of the duel though?)
chris107: No!
chris107: I'd rather win or loose fairly
Kjato Ragfoot: If it is cheating, I will not, but I assumed that was just a psychological effect of blessing my ally.
Smon: Any buffs would be cheating, yes.
chris107: If Hakeem is to fall it will be with honour.
Kjato Ragfoot: OK. Then I won't do that.

Smon: He vanishes!
Smon: Ilyra & Enos also vanish!
chris107: "Bondorrr! You let this coward hold your blade?!"
Kjato Ragfoot: 18
chris107: H leaps for his horse expecting more treachery.
Smon: The four warriors who were with Yusan turn to ride away.
Smon: You see a fog rolling in from the sea, yellow and poisonous.
chris107: (Just wondering the strke back at foes who jit you rule. Does it stand in single combat too?)
Smon: I'd guess so, but you have to declare it!
Smon: OOC You had the old geezer pretty badly outclassed.
chris107: Drat
Kjato Ragfoot: Look out!
chris107: Just came to me then.
Smon: But he does have a ton of wizards.
Smon: The fog bank is making for Krens' Cairn.
chris107: But no honour,
Smon: Naw.
chris107: Thur, Kren, this wizardry is beyond my ken.
Smon: In the battle lines of the enemy army ca 150 yards west, you see Yusan standing. He waves his sword in ironic salute to Hakeem. Still, you made him look bad in front of his men, hopefully.
chris107: Hakeem spits, showing his contempt for the old coward. He has no father.
Kjato Ragfoot: Did Enos do anything? After all, I watched him to be able to interfere if something like that happened.
chris107: H calls down a terrible oath to kill Yusan for all to hear.
Smon: Bill was just saying: "Wizards are way too overpowered in this edition! They made this edition the wizard's edition!"
Smon: (I love my edition warring 8 yr old) :D]
Kjato Ragfoot: (Look at third edition, that had powerful wizards9
Smon: Enos never acted, nope.
chris107: (Hehe  )
Smon: (Agree about 3e)
chris107: How do we stop this cloud?
Smon: Krens grimaces. "While we were watching the two mages with him, an invisible one must have approached unseen, spirited him away!"
Smon: Krens wheels his horse round. "I'll try a Dispel... "
Smon: He heads back for the Cairn, followed by Odense.
chris107: "Bah! If his soldiers fight like he does, we will have no problems."
Kjato Ragfoot: Thuruar will follow him.
chris107: "Thur, I guess we should go back too?" H follows
Kjato Ragfoot: Yes. Let's hurry.
DESTROYERBILL: n
Kjato Ragfoot: I have an idea how we might even the odds.
chris107: "Good man!"
chris107: "Good man!"
chris107: "Good man!"
chris107: "Good man!"
Smon: GM: You reach the Cairn safely and mount the wall to see the yellow cloud billowing in,
chris107: H wets his cloak and pulls it over his nose and mouth.
Smon: Krens summons his power and casts Dispel at the 5th rank.
Smon: As the cloud comes within 120'.
chris107: Thur, if you could help with a few of these scratches some time as well?"
Kjato Ragfoot: Sure.
Smon: The cloud - also at the 5th rank - breaks up, chunks evaporating away.
Kjato Ragfoot: (How many hit points are missing?)
Smon: Krens looks relieved.
chris107: "Krens! You're a genius!"
chris107: 50 odd
Smon: Krens: "Thanks. As long as they can't do that again today..."
Smon: GM: To the south, the Dragonborn & Altanian army sets sail north on Sarene's ships.
Kjato Ragfoot rolls 3d8+15 and gets: 5, 6, 3, (+15) = 29
Kjato Ragfoot rolls 1d8+5 and gets: 1, (+5) = 6
chris107: Thanks
Smon: Yusan's army moves round to invest Krens' Cairn, wreathed in a grey fog that hides their deployments.
Smon: The Wyverns fly high above the ships.
chris107: 146/173
Kjato Ragfoot: 35 hitpoints back.
chris107: 152/173
Smon: And you wait...
Smon: GM: Waiting for Shieldbiter to arrive now?
chris107: Can we have a short rest?
DESTROYERBILL: noooo
chris107: if so H will use 2 healing dice
Smon: You can be back to full several days later, when Shieldbiter's army arrive at Talholm, welcomed by Lord Usarus.
chris107: And Simon, yes
chris107:
Smon: "Welcome mighty warriors!" says the Lord Usarus of Talholm. "We are agreed - we shall join you in this battle to free our land!"
Smon: OOC You guys wouldn't be free early on Friday by any chance? Like 4pm-6.30pm?
chris107: I can be
Kjato Ragfoot: I should be.
DESTROYERBILL: yay i can play now

6:02pm  2016-4-23 Smon Has entered the room
6:04pm  2016-4-23 chris107 Has entered the room
chris107: hi simon
chris107:
Smon: Hi chris
Smon: I think it's just us.
chris107: sorry was in lounge
chris107:
Smon: Just nuked some soup, will be a few mins getting ready.
chris107: no probs
Smon: Yeah, Kjato says "I plan to be in Paderborn this Saturday, unless something forces me to cancel the trip I won't be able to play."
Smon: BTW you know I'd love it if you could do a guest star appearance in my tabletop Classic D&D game sometime - possibly playing a star-lost Moffet Manglemaimer.
Smon: Those Red Reaver Wizards & their Plane Shifts...
chris107: that would be great
Smon: Next games scheduled are May 6th 13th 17th & 27th.
Smon: I'm also thinking if my Karameikos players ever leave London I'll ask if they want to continue text chat on DF, but that will be years away.
Smon: Hopefully two of them will be married with kids by then.
chris107: 6th I'm in London, but can't play
chris107: That would be great too.
chris107: Sorry, cooking answering texts and phone calls for a bit there. All done now
chris107: I still have Moffet's character sheet.
Smon: OK I forgot we were in the middle of a battle at the end of last session..
Smon: *oops*
chris107: He had done pretty well after the Dragon hoard. 6th level I think
chris107: Yeah Kjato had blasted a load
Smon: Yup. I'd put Moffet up to 100,000 XP so he'd be max level, I'm using the BECMI Attack Rank rules too.
chris107: The horses were dead I think he caught them all.
chris107:
chris107: Moffet was never really much cop as a numbers machine but he was just such fun to play!
Smon: Yeah, one of my fav characters.
chris107: Can H make a judgment as to if our troops will be able to make it to the cairn before these barbarians can get back to Yusan and Yusan set out in poersuit/beat us there?
Smon: OK looking over it, you took the Outriders by surprise, killed 9. Wounded leader + 10 more are left.
6:17pm  2016-4-23 chris107 Has exited the room
6:20pm  2016-4-23 chris107 Has entered the room
Smon: Your guys could certainly reach the cairn before Yusan's infantry. Cavalry - his riders would have to go ca 55 miles Trade-Theber-Krens before you did 25 Trade-Krens. Might do.
chris107: Drat!
Smon: Welcome back
chris107: Was typing away and I think I'd lost connection?
Smon: yup
Smon: Smon: OK looking over it, you took the Outriders by surprise, killed 9. Wounded leader + 10 more are left. 6:17pm 2016-4-23 chris107 Has exited the room 6:20pm 2016-4-23 chris107 Has entered the room
chris107: Gosh not sure if we can take that chance but for H to attack the remaining Altanians without any backup could be suicidal.
chris107: All their horses are gone?
Smon: Leader is 40' away, prone, you have surprise on him.
Smon: Further back 10 more were outside the fire storm & unharmed.
chris107: Could I attack him with advantage? Rage, charge and Berserk?
chris107: Oh jeez!
chris107: so there were 30 of them + the leader?
Smon: You can rage & charge & you have advtg but you can't get berserk bonus attack.
Smon: No, 20 total, you hit 10 inc leader, killed 9.
chris107: Ah okay
chris107: 10 unwounded is still a big ask. But H will try.
Smon: OK, you can draw Bloodletter, rage, charge & swing at him.
Smon: 2 attacks w advtg.
chris107: two attacks with advantage and rage then. He will berserk next round if the unharmed 10 approach rather than flee.

Smon: What is T casting? Take your time.
chris107: Okay let me look again at SG
chris107: Is he within 15' of H?
chris107: Either way he will cast it around himself. Designating H as unaffected (and Rey and our horses)
Smon: No, H ran forward 40' to attack the leader.
Smon: There is 40' between you.
chris107: Okay, I got to keep T safe. Kjato would never forgive me!

Smon: roll 6d8
chris107: can Thur charge them and get them into the angels?
Smon: He has 2 riders on him.
chris107 rolls 6d8 and gets: 3, 1, 3, 3, 2, 4, = 16

Smon: 1 takes 16, 1 takes 8
Smon: morale check for them:
Smon: /roll 2d6
Smon rolls 2d6 and gets: 1, 2, = 3

Smon: I have no idea

chris107 rolls 3d8+30 and gets: 4, 5, 5, (+30) = 44
Smon: You cut him down.
chris107:
chris107: Now let the race begin!
Smon: You see 6 riders riding away hard across the plain, hooves kicking dust from the dry ground.
chris107: We gallop off towards our guys who should be jogging along the road by now.
Smon: OK you head back north & join your army leaving Trade.
Smon: You head east with them to Krens' Cairn at a swift march?
chris107: Yes please
Smon: GM: OK you rejoin your warriors. Swiftly you pace along the ancient coast road.
chris107: Keeping an eye out for large dust clouds starting out from Theba!
Smon: Towards evening, the spire of Krens' Cairn comes into view on the treeless headland ahead, where angry waves crash against bleak cliffs.
chris107: And riding 'outrider' with Thur to spot harrassing cavalry
Smon: No sign of pursuit, but as Hakeem scans behind him he sees mounds of thick black smoke rising from behind him - from Trade...
chris107: "Here we destroy Yusan or die Thuruar."
Smon: Looks like Yusan prefers to sack defenceless villages than chase you too hard.
chris107: H feels sorry for the towns folk but they were weak and would not listen to sense!
Smon: Thuruar nods grimly to Hakeem.
chris107: (Yusan's treasure coffers will be mighty full if we ever get to them
Smon: As you approach the outer wall of Krens' Cairn you see nervous looking Ghinoran warriors on the parapet, armed & armoured.
Smon: Rey waves, calling out to them.
chris107: (Though Kjato did say that he would spirit Rey, Hakeem and himself away to his safe haven via Word of Recall if it got desperate)
Smon: (right now he has no level 6 slot!)
chris107: H waves back, delighted to see his friend safe and the walls well manned.
chris107: Can T hand wave healing spells for the few HP we lost and relearn overnight?
chris107: Ah, I guess we don't want Y to win through before morning then!
Smon: The gates open, and out comes a small retinue - a slightly built robed man, a grizzled Weaponmaster and two guards.
Smon: The robed man smiles, raising his hand.
chris107: In which case H will use 1 healing dice and rest from a Berserk when he gets chance T probably 2
Smon: "Welcome, Chief Hakeem! I am Krens, once of Tula! Glad I am to see you!"
Smon: (no rest on the march)
chris107: Hakeem greets him with a friendly gesture. "Kren I'm guessing?"
chris107: When we get a chance Simon.
Smon: "Aye! You are all welcome - come in, your army too!"
chris107: "Glad to see you too Krens!"
chris107: H will watch his troops march in before going in last.
Smon: The Ghinoran defenders look nervously at your Altanian horde as they pour into the small settlement.
chris107: hehe hardly surprising I guess?
Smon: Though primitive, the outer stone wall and inner keep tower look much stronger than you've seen elsewhere among the Ghinarians.
Smon: Krens: "Come my friends, dine with me. We have much to discuss..."
chris107: H knows little of this kind of warfare. Thuruar probably knows better.
chris107: (Can we rest while dining?)
chris107: "Food and drink would be most welcome." says the blood and gore splattered Barbarian
Smon: In the Keep's stone hall, Krens introduces you to Odense Ap Wyn his weaponmaster, and Odense's wife, the stout Murika.
chris107: "Will my men be fed and looked after too?"
chris107: H greets them with a friendly smile.
Smon: Krens: "Aye, we have food for all, for now..." He looks admiringly at Hakeem's rippling musculature, spattered with gore. "...And servants to tend your wounds."
chris107: and a firm hand shake for Odense.
Smon: Odense shakes Hakeem's hand, grinning warmly. "Good to see Altanians who'll fight on OUR side!"
chris107: Hakeem relaxes.
Smon: Krens smiles and relaxes as serving maids - not slaves, you notice - bring the first course, a chicken broth.
chris107: "Against a beast like Yusan and worse, the evil forces of Neo-Nerathi we must stand united."
chris107: "We have stranger allies on their way too."
Smon: Krens: "Some wine? Tulan, from the wrecks... It's very good."
chris107: Hakeem approves
Smon: The maids serve you an exquisite Southern mage-wine that glimmers all colours of the rainbow.
chris107: "Juist a little Master Krenn. Thank you. The morning will bring the greatest fight of my young life no doubt!"
chris107: Yum!
Smon: Krens nods, sipping his own. "I must confess Hakeem, we had about given up all thought of aid."
chris107: Hakeem looks a little bemused at this exotic drink.
Smon: OK this counts as a short rest, you can spend hd.
chris107: Hakeem outlines the plan.
chris107: The aid we have coming from the south and the time it will likely take.
chris107: H
chris107 rolls 1d12+5 and gets: 4, (+5) = 9
chris107: Full
chris107: T
chris107 rolls 3d8+6 and gets: 6, 8, 7, (+6) = 27
chris107: full
chris107: +H recovers from his Berserk
Smon: (ok) Krens: "Red Tiger warriors, and Dragonborn of Oricha - more than we dared hope for! But the port at Trade is now in Yusan's hands... they may face a hard landing."
chris107: "We need just hold on Krens and the mighty Dragon Hoard will fall upon Yusan's rear like a thunder bolt!"
Smon: Krens: "If Yusan comes to besiege us here... And your allies land unopposed at Trade..."
chris107: "If we dare hope there may yet be hope from Thusia and the Temple of Mitra too.
Smon: "It might be safer if they could land at Talholm, to the south."
chris107: "We have magical stones to direct our forces with from afar. We shall be glad of your wisdom."
Smon: Krens: "Talholm's Lord Usarus is a cautious man, and loves his wife muchly - seeks to keep her safe... But he hates Yusan as much as you or I. He might be persuaded to join with us."
chris107: "With our magical communications we should have a great tactical advantage against Yusan."
chris107: (Gosh H is thinking with his brain rather than his sword for a change. he's behaving like a War Chief!  )
Smon:
chris107: "Then we must attempt to enlist him to our cause when the time is ripe."
Smon: Krens: "If Usarus joins us, I think Lord Kaladrac of Verius shall, too. Usarus' wife Helena is his sister."
chris107: 1 min Simon please need a coca-cola and a packet of crisps as sustenance!
Smon: The bowls of broth are cleared, great racks of roast mutton brought in.
Smon:
Smon: Krens: "Do you know how many warriors Captain Sarene will bring north?"
chris107: okay, good to go again
chris107: "Not of the Dragon folk or our friends. But she will bring her own howling Pirates that number 60. Her ships can hold 300 more souls and I expect them to be bursting at the seems. Plus the Dragonfolk are bringing mighty Wyrims!"
Smon: Krens' eyes widen. "Then we could close to match Yusan's numbers..."
Smon: Odense: "All depends on if we can hold here. Against the Wizards..."
chris107: "And with you and good Thuruar we are a match for them in magic too!"
Smon: Krens: "I hope so. This Unseen Conclave is powerful in Illusion."
chris107: "Thuruar is a mighty High Priest of Athena. His magic is strong. He can call forth mighty allies from the Heavens!"
Smon: "They say the defenders of Theber saw a mist, from which came forth hordes of demons..."
Smon: Odense: "That's good to hear."
chris107: "And there soldiers fall like wheat beneath our blades. Only this morning just Thur and I bested 20 of their number including a champion taking barely a scratch!"
Smon: Odense: "So, we can feed your men a couple weeks, long enough for your allies to get here."
chris107: "Bah! Illusions and tricks to fool peasents. Thuruar can actually bring forth the most powerful servants of his mistress!"
Smon: Krens nods. "With your power, our walls, and the stout hearts of our men, I think we have a chance."
chris107: "Stout men can not fall before jakals!"
Smon: "But Yusan has over six hundred - more, with the conscripts."
chris107: "And his men are used to besting women and town guardsmen. Not seasoned warriors and migty magicians!"
Smon: Odense nods to Hakeem. "Yusan is a jackal. He took Theber by surprise, He'll not breach our walls."
chris107: "Now we have a little surprise for Yusan in that department. Organised by friend Rey here." He gestures to the elegant rougue who is no doubt chatting to the servant girls
Smon: There's a sad lack of feminine pulchritude in Krens' hall, but Rey contents himself chatting with a skinny young maid.
chris107: hehe
Smon: OOC think I'll stop soon, say 9pm.
Smon: "A surprise?"
chris107: "Now that the conscripts have seen what becomes of their town regardless of their loyalty. I think we may rely on them."
chris107: OOC Yeah sure Simon. You've run an amazing amount of sessions in a short time in this campaign. You must be ready for a break?
Smon: Krens nods. "Yusan has doubtless slain the Trade conscripts. If those of Verius and Talholm yet live, freeing them would be worth much..."
chris107: OOC I'm over three years in at my Castle Redstar game and feel desperate for one.
Smon: OOC Yeah I'd like a short break, it worked wonders for my Classic game,
chris107: hehe another job for Rey!
Smon: I was getting burnt out and had stopped reading the adventures before running them.
chris107:
chris107: Take a break my friend. It will do you good.
Smon: A bit of time that's an 'official break' really helps me refocus, start thinking about stuff - plans etc.
chris107: (Assuming we survive that long)
Smon: Do you think I should skip this Wednesday? Prob want to take a break then come back & do the big battles.
chris107: OOC and us too.
Smon: Would like to leave it at a good point.
chris107: I'll be available next Wednesday but away to London on the 5th
chris107: But totally up to you
Smon: Could do rescue mission? Best if Graham was around.
chris107: It would be grand if Bill, Graham, Kjato and me could all be there when we do finally go up agin Yusan.
Smon: Yup.
Smon: BTW 3 years of Redstar, very impressive!
Smon: That's weekly, the tabletop version?
chris107: That would be a session talked of for a long time. D&D legend!
chris107: I wish Simon!
Smon: 3 years online?
chris107: My face to face groups only get together a few times a year now. But have averaged over 40 sessions a year now for 38 months.
chris107: I think it's session 127 next week.
chris107: yes.
chris107: With two of the original players.
Smon: Awesome
chris107: Graham joined in week 3
Smon: My 4e tabletop game just had session 96 after 5 years -http://frloudwater.blogspot.co.uk/
chris107: and Pres about three months in
Smon: Fortnightly about 3 hours.
chris107: The link wont work
Smon: I had to take a break on that recently, November-April.
chris107: That's great!
Smon: http://frloudwater.blogspot.co.uk/
Smon: Most of the players had forgotten all the 4e rules when we restarted.
chris107: Thanks, look forward to reading that later
Smon: Should run to August, ca 105-108 sessions maybe.
chris107: I'm told they are quite complex?
Smon: Then it's ending, no more 3 hour combats for me again!
chris107: haha
Smon: It's crazy, basically 1 session = 1 combat with a bit of scene framing
chris107: It's our original campaign's 40th birthday this year.
Smon: It's only slightly younger than me!
Smon: And my Mentzer Classic players think I'm ancient.
chris107: hehe
chris107: We only get to play 3-4 times a year now though.
Smon: Most of them are early-mid '20s... Plus Bill, nearly 9.
chris107: Our original DM lives in Switzerland
Smon: It's still alive if you still play regularly.
Smon: My high school campaign ended in the '90s.
chris107: We are all in our mid-late 50's + a couple of their lads 13 and 31
Smon: It was 1e.
chris107: We been very lucky.
Smon: You guys were old enough to see the Don Turnbull Greenlands stuff when he was writing originally. :
Smon:
chris107: Even though we were all at different Uni's and lived in different towns we always got together to play.
chris107: And those holidays!
chris107: Weeks on end of long daily sessions.
Smon: wow
chris107: We all moved back to Yorkshire in around 1990 and had five-six years of weeksly sessions
Smon: Is that the one where you're level 18 after 40 years?
Smon:
chris107: Yes.
Smon: That's quite slow advancement!
chris107: Though we each play several characters.
Smon: In my original campaign my best friend's PC got 117 levels in only about 12 years...
chris107: Wow!
Smon: I saw him described online yesterday as The Ultimate AD&D Powergamer in a review of his Immortals Handbook.
chris107: we all have other PC's in the game around name-13th level too.

*saunatonttu is disguised as a 5e kobold*
chris107: hehe
Smon: Hi Sauna, we're just chillin'
chris107: Sauns
Smon: Imagine if the ultimate power gamer in AD&D history met up with the silliest immortal level ideas of Gygaxian excess and decided to create a Monster Manual specifically for ultra-high-level games. The result would be The Immortals Handbook - Epic Bestiary: Volume One..."
chris107: Waiting for next game when the guys are here to start the epic battle
Smon: He made it for 3e so it's totally unusable as far as I can tell.
Smon: We always played 1e with UA, his Cavalier started at 3rd and ended at Lesser God...
chris107: I really want to play some mega-level D&D
chris107: It's like we were meanies for so many years. Now it's time to do it before I die
Smon:
chris107: Never had a Girdle of Giant Strength or a Holy Avenger etc.
Smon: Hah.
chris107: Never anfought Orcus o any demon lord (except Llolth, who escaped, we had the winning draw)r
Smon: Two Girdles of Giant Str showed up in my Classic game, one in an adventure, one random roll I think.
chris107: Death Knights
chris107: Mmmmm we never did random treasure.
Smon: Thrin & co killed Druaga & Evil Odin.
chris107: It's 'cos we were all wargamers before D&D players so everything gets scripted.
Smon: I like the random tables, I only use them now & then.
chris107: Evil Odin!
Smon: Summoned by Fantasy Hitler to conquer Fantasy Britain.
chris107: Pres' fighter, Rag, in Redstar has Hitler's head in a sack
Smon: Luckily Fantasy Churchill had King Arthur, Merlin & the PCs...
chris107: or did, it vanished a few weeks ago
*saunatonttu smells trouble*
chris107: that's kewl sauns
Smon: King Arthur doesn't like those Saxons...
chris107: King Arthur was on the telly last night. Good filem.
chris107: (Vanishing Hitlerhead is going to be Demilich later on. Demilich glass skull with a hitler mustachios  )
chris107: Yeah that's the filem.
Smon:
chris107: King Arthur did for the Saxons
chris107: That was some high level fighting
chris107: hehe yes
chris107: yeah
chris107: And the arrow shot from the hill top that killed the spy in the tree!
chris107: No.
Smon: The PCs were losing against Wotan, so one cast a bunch of delayed blast fireballs, hid them, lured Wotan in & exploded, dispelling both gods.
chris107: I'll look ot for it.
chris107: That's high level stuff Simon!
Smon: Thrin the undispelled PC god followed Wotan's silver cord back to where his corpse hung from Yggdrasil, and finished him off.
chris107: I hope Hakeem will survive long enough to go against the wiked Gawds!
Smon: Yeah, I'd like to see Hakeem fight the Viridian demon god Amadad Bog.
chris107:
chris107: Finishing off Wotan!
Smon: Some kind of giant Cthuloid sea monster that lives under the imperial palace.
chris107: And that demigod! Son of Ares!
Smon: Yeah, Kainos the Warbringer.
Smon: He should be beatable if you nick his shield and get to 20th level.
Smon: He's only an Empyrean - a demigod.
Smon: OK posting log now.
