I joined several Mythrus tower games. I like the idea of trying to have an ongoing expedition.

I'm too scared to join Tim Kask's game.

I was simultaneously happy and disappointed to see that Philotomy and Northrundicandus' games were full already.

I tried to leave some free time for schmoozing and boozing.
The DUNGEON MASTERS GUIDE City of Brass cover is good and bad at the same time. While its very representational of a high level adventure, it sends a clear message to the dumb: Satan is going to cornhole Miss USA with a big red member and theres nothing science or the military can do about it. - Gene Weigel

Tim's games are fun: if there's room, you should jump in with two feet. Worst that'll happen is a TPK :D :D

I dare you to join Tim's game and tell him "initiative doesn't work like that." :twisted:

I'd definitely consider myself a noob in his game.

Heh heh .. I bet the quickest way to encounter a Die No Save trap in Kask's game is to say, " .. but, page 67 of the DMG says ..."

In his OD&D game last year (at least the one I played in), he was using individual initiative with a d10, where low rolls are good. Then he'd count off the numbers and you'd chime in when he got to your number.

That's actually how I run my S&W game as well.

It seems to work well with a large group.

I've not had any issues with it. Ties are simultaneous.

How were ties between sides resolved?
