That's Memorial Weekend, but I should be available :) The Codex is my main faction, so looking forward to this.

I would love to!!

Is a starting RPGA character with an experienced player going to be an amazing detriment? I have been hurling myself at the RPGA here in Toronto for a couple weeks and I think online is the only way I am going to get any experience!

I will gladly purchase Fantasygrounds and be ready for that date!

Just let me know!

Thanks!

Still- you are welcome to join!

It's not a huge disadvantage to be starting out now. This adventure in particular is kind of pivotal for the Crimson Codex, so it's a great starting point. You'll get to start at 4th level, and I think most of the other players will either be 4th or 5th.

I'll be posting the server address and an official signup sheet soon. Anyone else who is interested, just post right here or send me a PM.

I might be able to play in this one, though I might end up doing a fastplay or reconsidering my starter character since there are already 2 dragon shamans. :D

I'm the other Dragon Shaman. Having played in a game with 2 before, let me tell you it can be *very* nice. Unless we are lacking a heavy tank, rogue or healer of some type, I'd say play it if you think you'll enjoy it.

My Dragon Shaman is my main faction character (The one I do expeditions with), and it is a lot of fun and very flavorful.

Oh, I realize the synergy of having two or more auras in place at once. But since this isn't my primary faction, I might try something I haven't done in a while.

It's too bad I don't own Magic of Incarnum, or else I'd give a race/class from it a try.

I just tried to connect and it said "host is running a proprietary ruleset that does not match a local installation." What does this mean? Are you using FG I or FG II?
Kelvane

05-26-07, 06:04 PM
I get the same message when I try to connect. I am using FG2.

Sorry about that, I had to patch.

We got it all fixed and running on time. Let me know if you don't get both story objects and everything!

Had a lot of fun with this mod. See guys again soon!

I ended up with a movie date last night. Sorry that I forgot to post here to go from maybe to no. :-(

That's ok! We had a group of 5, and we nearly had 6, but one guy was not ready to play when we started (didn't have a character ready). I'll try and help that guy set up for a future game.

This was a great mod! has a lot of great spy/secret action and what turned out to be some very funny scenes.

I was a bit worried about how it would run online, but I'm glad it went well for at least one table.

This mod is practically optimized for online.

I did embellish a couple of scenes. I don't want to put in any spoilers, so I'll PM you!

As a player in the mod, I found it quite enjoyable. The RP aspect made it suitable to online play as well. I thought it was a nice refreshing mod in that combat was kept to a minimum while still giving all characters a role in the scenes. Thanks to Peter for running it!

Also, I made 6th level with it :) So woot!!

I played it last night with Pete and it was very smooth. Fantasygrounds II was problem free except for a couple DCs that might have been client side but my connection was rock solid.

The other folk at the table were great and there were some very funny moments. Seemed like a good mod.

I get the sense you really need to be in control of the pace online or it can bog down. But thats the same with tabletop too.

Good game.

I to played in the group last night and thought it was a great mod. Everybody worked well together. Thanks for running Peter.

Shoot! I totally missed this; I guess that's what I get for being off the net. Any chance you're running this againg Peter?

I have no immediate plans to run this again! Sorry.. but maybe I can be convinced...:cool:

My original plan was just to run DM's marks, and that soon changed into "run everything thats out there.."

..and then I got kind of overwhlemed with stuff!

I'm still trying to figure out the next thing I want to run. Normally, my preference would be DM's Marks, but lately I've been working on another D&D project that takes all my time.
