I'd like to note how awesome a meatshield I was until we ran into a god damn dragon who did not give two shits about AC. 0 damage the entire game until instant death by dragon fire. I need to consider recording our games in a higher resolution. I got some good footage but you can't read any of the text. Ah well.

That was a magical moment.

"So, uh, roll your reflex save, and—"

"What about my armor?"

"Your reflex save, which is, let's see—"

"I have this armor though."

"Ooh, you needed a 14, that's not—"

"MY ARMOR!"

"Yeah, you both melted instantly."

"BUT, BUT... ARMOR."

And so they started off on their cave adventure, looking for a monster of sorts.

The FIGHTER: A man of tin and.... tin.



The CLERIC: A dark being, who weaved in and out of existence, apparently. Also with only one eye and a living hat.



The WIZARD: A man who once had a run in with a fountain most vile, and was reconstituted, minus one VERY VERY important member. Also a cyclops.



The ELF



The ummm... ELF



and...

Oh, yes, the ELF: A master of disguise, becoming all one color, and knifey, pointy things.



For a long time, they dinkered many opponents:



But it was all for naught, as the CLERIC had other plans, namely using the FIGHTER's corpse:



To cause the Ultimate Dinker for the Ages:



And so was the path they found.

I appreciated Pang's decision to arbitrarily resurrect my wizard, since our healer had shown no interest in doing so when he was so thoroughly incinerated, and i otherwise would have been left to watch, and we might have never discovered the secret of the obelisk.

Also - MSPaint, the multiplayer experience!

Somebody decided it was a cool and mysterious touch to have a MYSTERIOUS OBELISK that said "water" next to some water.

Somebody got paid for that.

And, for what it's worth, looked it up: black dragons are intended as an 8th-level enemy

what the fuck

Sanctum on Tuesday, right?

Or Shazbot?

Wellll if I can actually get Tribes downloaded in 2 days then I guess we can put off Sanctum 'til later

I am always in favor of games that'll support more than four players when we can swing it

Hey guys, just a little heads up to say that I will be going back home today until the 19 of August, and so I won't be able to join in for any Windows only gaming. I'll be spending time with family and friends, so So don't feel bad about playing whatever you want to!

If it so happens that you decide to play something that is mac friendly, I probably will be able to find the time to join in, except for tomorrow, when I'll most likely be too busy catching up with everyone back home. In any case, I'm pretty sure what you have lined up already is Win only anyway.

Have fun guys!

so are we doing sanctum or shazbot tonight?

Well, Garr seems down for Tribes and since neither Rychord nor I can make it tonight I would recommend you go with that, since Sanctum is a tremendous pain in the ass with exactly two players.

Or, you know, whatever, make your own decisions gee golly gosh

can you not make it because you can't download tribes in time or other reasons? cuz i mean it's not like we can't do tribes next week or something if that's the case. i think you said you already had sanctum and i don't mind buying and downloading it if that's the case

SHAZBOT

SHAZBOT

i like how i had no idea what i was doing

THAT WAS ONE OF THE BEST PARTS

So what you're saying is that it's a good thing I wasn't there.

WHAT'S A SHAZBOT ANYWAY

Naw, I was just falling asleep. We can definitely do Tribes again later though anyway since it seems like you guys had a blast.

What's this week, ladies?

Because I'm stubbornly enforcing my muleheaded idea of alternating vidya and tabletop (and because Rychord can't swing Windows games for a while) this week is

ACTION CASTLE!

which should be really, really quick so we should have time for

FIASCO

afterward.

Seriously AC should take like 20 minutes tops assuming we don't get derailed by ahaahahahahahahaaaaa

Neither of these games require any visual apparatus as such but we may as well do it on Roll20 for the music and doodling opportunities. Provide your soundtrack suggestions, if you like.

A fifth player for Fiasco would be cool but not strictly necessary.

i'm around again, but i'll be at work until 9pm mountain time, so i don't know if you guys will still be busy when i get back. Just don't count on me being around any sooner than that.

Just a heads up that I might not make it this week.

I might not be able to make it either, as I'm leaving for my own folks home tomorrow. (I've been at my GF's folks house since last Tuesday.)

I'm not sure at who's gonna be at my parents' house, if the house isn't too crowded I might be able to make it, as I am on Atlantic time here, and 10PM is a bit late for my parents if they are working the next day.

Yeah I might be shit out of luck too.

If we're three down, do you just want to defer until next week? We can then move Shazbot II: Electric Shazaloo to the 21st.
