Well whichever type of milling it is obviously a vital question that will have to be resolved later. I'll post a map of the deck shortly and pick up the action.

GM, 277 posts Mon 2 Jun 2014 at 23:37 | Re: Out of Character ChatHere are the deck plans for the Twice Shy:

I'm assuming Manath is on the stairs leading up to the Forecastle, Dappa is looking over the side and everyone else is, ahem, milling in the middle.
Sorry the quality of the scan is so poor but I am working from quite an old book.

Mannath

Vithrain

GM, 279 posts Sun 8 Jun 2014 at 15:27 | Re: Out of Character ChatBoth barrel and sea dragon are artistic likeness, for now at least. ;)
Again I'd like to apologise for the quality of the scan but as I've said before I'm working with a very old copy of the book, which isn't very scan friendly anyway.
Okay, I've made the assumption that Mannath did not close the Forecastle door behind him so you are within earshot at least of him. You do have sufficent time to run to join him (or he to run and join you) before whatever is appraching arrives.
Oh and just to be clear Mannath is still outside location 4 - the door is dramatic enough looking I have to check before you enter it (or don't if you prefer). :)

Should I edit my last post to narrate that I see the door and what I do about it? Or do you want to post first?

GM, 280 posts Tue 10 Jun 2014 at 11:56 | Re: Out of Character ChatYou can't see the door from the deck (though you can hear Mannath perfectly fine.) I assume Vithrain actually went inside the forecastle right? If so then yes you see the door. :)

Might be worth putting the map in a separate thread so we don't lose it...

GM, 281 posts Wed 11 Jun 2014 at 14:20 | Re: Out of Character ChatThey (whatever They are) will be within arrow range in one round and hand to hand in two rounds. You do have enough time to seek shelter - either in the forecastle where Mannath and Vithrain currently are or elsewhere.
Btw I'll be away until Monday evening so feel free to plot and scheme amongst yourselves until then. :)

Exactly! :D
As far as you can tell you five are the sole living things aboard. Granted you have only explored the main deck and part of the forecastle.

Because otherwise no adventure? ;)
Holding off an IC reply until I hear from Tarrian.

GM, 285 posts Fri 4 Jul 2014 at 10:11 | Re: Out of Character ChatHmm, we haven't heard from Tarrian for a while so I'll move forward. Just before that though: is Elstarir seeking shelter in the forecastle and/or is anyone else going back on deck to join him?

GM, 289 posts Mon 8 Sep 2014 at 17:46 | Re: Out of Character ChatWell with two players definitely gone I'm afraid I'll have to put this game on permanent hiatus; it's clear things have slowed to an absolute crawl. I might revieve it at some point for now I'm closing the game.
Sorry guys. It has been a lot of fun though.
