Running late this morning but will be there most of the day with two of my boys.

That's a great extension of the OS map (is there an echo in here, you ask?)! I may have to revisit my version.

As a dedicated follower of Hawaiian fashion I have to say - great shirts on this panel. Great shirts.

austinjimm's kids game




Welleran's Desert Shrine of the Sightless Sisters game (1E)


I roll a natural 18 magic missile damage against a Medusa! We win and press further -

So... my magic-user failed his save (1!!!) and took a 34 point Lightning Bolt to the face! Time for a new mapper.

The two older boys in the kids' game pictures are two of mine.

They had a blast. Thank you Jimm!

From the necromancer to the cleric in Chainsaw's game tonight: "Hang on there, Dudley DoRight! I got this."

We've just encountered iridescent lotus blossoms. I think they're holding a rave. o.O

Jimm is running an awesome game!

Running two characters: a fighting man and a hobbit thief. Hobbit thief got bitten repeatedly in the leg by cobras. Fighting man amputated and cauterized the leg leaving the hobbit with one hit point and one leg. The fighting man is now carrying him around on his back in a bag with arm and leg holes and he hops around when he needs to check for traps.

Winning.

Well, the hobbit perished.

Fighting man took a lightning bolt straight to the chest. The head of the one HP hobbit on his back exploded in an electrical explosion.

Of 9 players, three were KIA, two were petrified, one was envenomed by Medusae and dragged off alive for some weird ritual Aliens-style, and two were down to 1 HP.
Did my DMly duty!

You did a fantastic job, as always, my friend. I wish we'd had time to play the whole adventure. Maybe online?

My Saturday night The Strange Tale of Crystal Point game (AS&SH) - me in front of white board, then, counterclockwise: tetramorph, barnett, Jake and balrog62; not pictured: Welleran, Charlie, dm soda and cameraman Flambeaux

One of the last bottles left. Sad face.

Great beer! Thanks, Jimm!

Apparently, they did just enough right. Seems like that adventure was entertaining enough to deserve a full write-up!

I'll be typing up a full play report of the con soon. The funniest part is comparing how the Alehouse group approached the dungeon vs. the sober & sane group. The Alehouse has a reputation to maintain, and it was maintained!

The reason why I'm laughing while eightbits is talking is because he was trying to explain his actions the day before in chainsaw's AS&SH game. He was saying something like, "I was a necromancer. Backstabbing and trying to kill the rest of the party is what necromancers do. Surely you won't hold it against me."

He was referring to this:

I guess this plan didn't include being GMed the next day by one of the people he was trying to backstab. Sometimes the universe is funny like that.
