    Warhammer Quest: Starting Out

    Between the screeching and flapping, it seems impossible to hear anything else. However, just as Dorgath is turning away and rushing to assist his companions, he hears voices somewhere behind him. He can't make out what kind of voices or how far away they are, though.

    RIP Norman Borlaug

    Died Saturday from lymphoma. 95 is longer than most people get. But the man was a real hero.

    Warhammer Quest: Starting Out

    Out of the darkest caves fly the twittering, screeching clouds of Giant Bats. These fanged monstrosities, held aloft on great leathery wings, hide in the shadows, then swoop down upon their prey and rip them to shreds with teeth and talons. The giant bats, disturbed by some combination of...

    Warhammer Quest: Starting Out

    The power phase is 2 for this turn. Throg and Kelgar both stand in the eastern doorway and can't see much, although the tunnel does seem to turn a corner to the south. Just before they're about to conclude that the passage seems to be empty, Kelgar notices something move in the shadows. The...

    I'm much too lazy to figure out who else is still here, but I saw that Melkor posted on the boards today, so I nominate him.

    Warhammer Quest: Starting Out

    Dorgath identifies the tankard as a fine dwarf tankard. One like this would sell for about 20 gold in most cities, but as dwarf, Dorgath would be reluctant to part with such a prize. Kelgar stands in the eastern doorway, but detects only blackness. Either his eyes haven't adjusted to the...

    Warhammer Quest: Starting Out

    Remember that Kelgar can attempt one blessing per turn. With the power phase being a roll of 2, the chances of succeeding aren't amazing, but it can still work. Right now I'm not assuming that he'll try any particular blessing, but I rolled last turn just to check if he could and it wasn't high...

    OOC: Other than affecting certain magic items that the party might find and determining if unexpected events occur, power also determines how easy it is for Kelgar to use his blessings.

    Warhammer Quest: Starting Out

    The Power phase is 1 for this turn: an unexpected even occurs. Just as Throg and Dorgath can advance, a group of goblins arrive in the room... Like their big relatives the orcs, goblins vary in size although they are typically smaller than orcs and usually smaller than a man. Goblins have...

    Indeed. Not only would he be the only taxpayer in society, he'd have to collect the taxes from himself, since he'd be the only one to do that. And he'd have to be the sole legislator, executive, and judge. And constituent to, for that matter. I imagine that would be pretty hectic. He'd probably...

    You can simplify it and ease the burden on the poor taxpayers even more if that's the goal: just kill everyone on the whole planet. Problem solved.

    Orgg walks up behind Ransac, taps him on the shoulder, and kicks him in the face.

    I should hope so. It's been just a couple of us actually doing things and I think Spidey handling the absentee people in combat situations while they follow us like zombies outside of combat.
