Re: OOC Discussions

Mikhail can't see her from his position (about 35-40 yards from the corner of the left side of the raised lot the house), and would have no idea where she is to be able to target her effectively.

Re: OOC Discussions

Brother Loran, what is the footman you're controlling doing? I need his actions before the Magister can respond.

Re: OOC Discussions

So we all heard them speak in clear Orlesian, or is it just the ones in or near the house?

Re: OOC Discussions

You were told the servant women were Orlesian. You gents haven't heard them speak, though.

The yelling that filtered out upon your arrival was impossible to discern as any language; nothing was intelligible enough to make such a distinction; however, the false magister and his mistress (the woman in the back of the house) are definitely Orlesian.

You don't know whether or not the Tevinter warriors speak Orlesian.

Re: OOC Discussions

I'm referring to your msg#119 in the thread. You have a note there stating that they said "die" in Orlesian. I'm asking if Mikhail heard that, or if he's too far away.

Re: OOC Discussions

Oh! Yes, Mikhail definitely heard that, and it was a woman's voice, for certain. If he had to guess, it likely belonged to the magister's mistress, since she was suspected of being a mage in her own right (it didn't sound like Sexta's voice).

Re: OOC Discussions

Seeing as how I have no real relation to the concept of distance, even when I try to measure things out on the map. Sorry about that, but let me know if I'm out of range as it doesn't look like I moved last round when I did.

Re: OOC Discussions

A few yards in R1
Half move in R2.
A move in R3
I guess "a few" is 1-3.
half move is (10+DEX)/2, so 5-7 yards?
And another 10-14 in R3.
Cannot recall where you started.
3+7+14=24
Arcane Lance is 16yards.
You better not have started more than 40yards away...

Re: OOC Discussions

I don't know. I've been doing most of this in the theater of the mind. In my head, I didn't start out crazy far away, but that's why I was trying to get some clarification. If I knew I would miss anyway, it would have changed my choice of action entirely, but I didn't know the distance here. In my mind, I would be standing a decent distance behind the soldiers by this point, not an extreme one, but decent enough.

However, it seems that the situation is resolved.

Re: OOC Discussions

I have been updating the Group 0 map throughout the scene, moving character icons consistent with what was told to me, and had a bar scale at the bottom to help you folks gauge distances.

Is there something different or additional that you'd like me to do to help you keep track of such things? Would giving a general distance to major items/opponents for each PC be helpful?

Re: OOC Discussions

The map just isn't helpful when I'm not at my computer. There are times when I'm on my phone and trying to update a post. It's not that often, but it happens. Really, if I have questions about things, I'll just ask you directly. Otherwise, I think I can figure it out. It could be that I just didn't see my marker that represents me move.

Re: OOC Discussions

I like the map and it is providing all the information I need. Yes, I agree, not while on the mobile, though (frim wguch I do most of my posting.
I only re-check the map at the end of a round, though. Maybe should do so more often

Re: OOC Discussions

Fost:
Sometime during 17th Aug - 30 Aug I'll be in France (one week being the current plan, unless COVID-19 intervenes...). Will not have i-net access (it's a remote place), so won't be able to post. Will keep you informed when I will be absent for real.

Current plan: absent 16th Aug - 24th Aug

Sounds good. Where in France, if I may ask (I saw a bit of the Riviera in my Navy years)?

Re: OOC Discussions

What are Mikhail and Loran doing?

Mikhail doesn't have any specific instructions, but he does have two apostate mages and their gear.

Loran has one of the Redcliffe footmen relaying Ser Perth's desire to have the Tevinter footmen stabilized, and Richard is calling for him to aid Sexta first.

Re: OOC Discussions

... I was waiting on Loran's action first, seeing as Ser Perth has the mages well in hand. I'll be talking to the Templars when we get back.

Re: OOC Discussions

Looks like Loran is delayed in posting. Unless otherwise told, he'll continue running toward Sexta (since that was his last declared action).

Re: OOC Discussions

Gents, our lone lurker (Finlos) has agreed to take over Richard for the remainder of the scenario. They may or may not be creating a new character after we finish up with the false magister and his cronies.

Welcome, Finlos!
