Hell...I'm still running Vista at home and I haven't had a hiccup, well, since it first came out.

My computer couldn't upgrade to Win 10 because my video card is incompatible (8 year old machine) so I'm stuck with Win 7 for the time being.

Bought a new computer, cheap but serviceable.

Vermundr made both of his saves, so feel free to take the action of your choice.

Sirgurd, you can also grab a broadsword and act if you wish. You are in the lower right of the map, the closest human to the charging mounted demons...

A hearty welcome to Sigurd!

Things are going swimmingly. I have out of town guests for the next two days, so things are a little slow, but I expect to advance the combat today.

We also have a new addition who is just starting character gen, I am not holding this round for their action, but they (fingers crossed) should be ready before the combat is over.

Question - Because I killed the napster, I assume the lemure that was riding it is tumbling to the ground. Would it be possible for me to hide in shadows again? It will obviously know I'm around somewhere, but I'm guessing it would be hard for it to keep track of my position.

Yes, I'd like to set myself up for another backstab, if possible. I'm not much use in combat toe-to-toe.

Given the circumstance, if you spend one round getting into position, you could back-stab the round after, as long as you don't enter the continual light.

Thanks

Hey guys! I'm new, and am just about to introduce my character into the main game. Thanks for letting me play with you here!

In reply to Wulfgar Olafson (msg # 123):

Pretty new myself but welcome to the party :D

Also new here. Welcome!

Thanks, guys! please be sure to tell me if I'm doing something wrong, because I'm totally new to the rpol community!

Okay, up to now I haven't felt it was an issue, but I have yet another person requesting to join, and I thought at this point I should get a sense of how the players feel about party size, etc. and if you guys think another fighter would be a good idea...

thoughts?

Fine with me.

Yeah we could even it out from 9 to 10 lol

If it improves my chances of survival, I'm for it. :)

But more seriously: I'm too much of a newcomer myself to deserve a vote.

Okay, that seems pretty solid, I'll let them know.

Can we see (in other words target) the thing that says, "fee, fie, foe, fumm...."???

not yet, dark, foggy night...

Gonna give Hrunnwulf, Klaengr and Ludvig another day or two to pitch in.

Hopefully tension is mounting, nice to think I can create the sense of it, even over RPOL. probably fooling myself though.

Finally getting over my nasty, nagging, phlegmy, coughy, icky, thing, whatever it was. Fingers crossed!

So, I gather that despite you telling me this, the word "unbeknownst" indicates I should not react? :)

Meh, you can suddenly become aware if you want, I  don't care... you weren't aware at the time I wrote that though...

That would have been a great use of the 'secret' functionality


I just used it there... everyone should see that except Dragnar. In a perfect world someone might notice that the Bard didn't see it, but that they did, and cry out a warning.

It might just be a question of whether I see who/what delivers the death blow. :)
