Title: Demonweb pits/Darksun Games
Post by: skavengear on October 02, 2010, 03:53:13 PM
New boards to clean-up the old ones.

From what ive read, DWP is mostly what you can assume will be fought in the underdark, with heavy emphasis on drow, driders, and the like. Although, it is considered a challenging module, it is not close to tomb of horrors, all of us should live bar the dwarf  ;)

Looks to be a really great set of adventures and games to be looking forward to! I know i cant wait, so lets build up the rosters!!! (keep in mind the names are in no particular order and classes are based off what i remember before leaving last night)  ;D

Demonweb Pits
Steve - Cleric
Tom - Warlock
Aj - Duskblade
Dave - Occult Slayer
Rick - Monk
Josh - Druid

Darksun 4e
Steve -
AJ -
Rick - Monk
Tom -
Jay -
Dave - Thri-Kreen Monk

Looking to also be pretty great parties also!  ;D

New thread!  I'll eventually post some junk up about the Darksun game, but that's WAAAY out there.  Let's keep our energy focused on Jay's game for now, because Jay is my hero.  (I know Dave is obsessive enough to be enthusiastic about both games, but whatever...)

This works out pretty well because I have time to get my Darksun junk together and I like playing too.  Should be fun.

I'm thinking about playing something from Libris Mortis, simply because I bought the book but I've never had a chance to use it.  It will be a druid or a cleric though.

I know Dave is obsessive enough to be enthusiastic about both games, but whatever...

obsessive?! Just because i know what every power, feat, and class feature is by memory from my dnd books i own and have a character sheet at 10th level for every class for the darksun game ready to play already doesnt make me obsessive! ::)

Jay will be unavailable next Friday for the Game, so there will not be a DemonWeb Pits Game run.


Edited for correctness.

We play on Fridays... Is it still off?
Title: Re: Demonweb pits/Darksun Games
Post by: jbkilroy on October 27, 2010, 03:23:59 PM
So how was the new campaign last time?  Did I miss anything interesting?

No game this Friday?  Well, if there is strong interest I can try out Paranoia again.
Title: Re: Demonweb pits/Darksun Games
Post by: skavengear on October 28, 2010, 10:01:17 AM
Bring me Paranoia!!!

also, the 3.5 game was pretty good. i poked alot of magic items, rammed myself into trees with magic breastplates, and most important of all... (drum roll)...

I didn't die!  :o
Title: Re: Demonweb pits/Darksun Games
Post by: jbkilroy on October 28, 2010, 10:50:20 AM
...why... were the trees wearing magic breastplates?  That just seems odd.  Plus, combining the 'ramming' of trees with the 'poking' of magic items... are you sure this was a 3.5 game and not that FATAL engine? 

Anyhoo, I need at least 3 confirmed players for Paranoia, otherwise the entire exercise will make me sad.  Anyone else who is interested, please let me know in this thread.

Title: Re: Demonweb pits/Darksun Games
Post by: jbkilroy on October 29, 2010, 05:45:06 PM
Well, since only 1 person has expressed interest, I'm afraid I'll have to pass on tonight.

Sorry Dave, but experience has taught me that if a game is cancelled so far ahead of time, nobody will show unless they post that they will.  Since they haven't, well...

Free tip.  First impressions matter, even on the internet.  (Maybe especially on the internet).  Reading a post like that from someone I've never met makes my eyes hurt and creates a negative image of the person who 'talks' that way.

Sorry if that sounded condescending, just trying to help.
Title: Re: Demonweb pits/Darksun Games
Post by: skavengear on November 03, 2010, 05:16:40 PM
Damn Rick beat me to it... Also are we on for this Friday? And if anyone sees jay, what happened to raven loft? Seems like I missed the memo about that :(
Title: Re: Demonweb pits/Darksun Games
Post by: jbkilroy on November 05, 2010, 02:38:52 PM
Unless I am miscounting our next game Friday falls on the 12th.
Title: Re: Demonweb pits/Darksun Games
Post by: skavengear on November 08, 2010, 10:18:17 AM
yes we are then the "off" friday is ravenstorm.

aj, be prepared, im going to make your life pokemon  :P
Title: Re: Demonweb pits/Darksun Games
Post by: Guu on November 08, 2010, 06:42:46 PM
We had a pretty good opening session, Rickus.  Some light combat, kinda set the scene.  You didn't miss anything earth shattering.

Hopefully all will be well for this Friday.  I'll be sure to check the boards more often, I woulda given a yes for that paranoia game if I'd bothered to read.
Title: Re: Demonweb pits/Darksun Games

if not i challenge all to red dragon inn. i gotta beat my record of 16 alchohol content  ::)

You forgot to mention that was in one turn.

Unfortunately, I have to go to San Diego early tomorrow morning for a work conference so I don't think I can make it tonight.  Originally I got the dates mixed up and thought I'd be out of town NEXT weekend.

I'm so disappointed.  See you guys in two weeks, I suppose.
Title: Re: Demonweb pits/Darksun Games
Post by: jbkilroy on November 12, 2010, 04:46:40 PM
Well, two weeks from today is BLACK FRIDAY!!!11!!!

Meh, I'll probably show up no matter what happens.  Not like I have anything better to do.
Title: Re: Demonweb pits/Darksun Games
Post by: Guu on November 12, 2010, 04:47:28 PM
Something we need to discuss.

Last year people were A-OK with gaming on Black Friday.

BTW, I may show up tonight after all, but I'm bringing my GF with me.
Title: Re: Demonweb pits/Darksun Games
Post by: THEgeek on November 21, 2010, 03:18:52 PM
if were gaming this coming friday i cannot make it do to work venture without me, ill try to drop my character sheet by
Title: Re: Demonweb pits/Darksun Games
Post by: jbkilroy on November 24, 2010, 11:41:24 PM
Alright, once more totally off topic and I know I've probably mentioned this to some of you before...  but the first Deus Ex was one of the greatest games of all time.  OF ALL TIME!

Anyhoo there was a giant sale on Steam and I bought 8 copies for 12 bucks.  I figured I'd let you guys have first crack at it.  Get yourself a steam id and let me know and I'll gift you a copy.  I guarantee you won't be disappointed.  (Note that the graphics have not aged well and the gameplay takes some getting used to.  Also note that steam ids are not unique, so the more unusual your name is the less chance there is of me sending it to the wrong person).

It's Christmas come early, so get them while they last.  And let anyone else you know who might be interested know about it too.
Title: Re: Demonweb pits/Darksun Games
Post by: skavengear on November 26, 2010, 11:30:34 PM
sorry i missed our game, i was out home shopping... and now am in a pile of debt
Title: Re: Demonweb pits/Darksun Games
Post by: jbkilroy on November 27, 2010, 02:13:35 PM
In the 'light combat' that I missed, did we... win?

Because from where I'm sitting we had two encounters and more or less lost both of them.  That doesn't bode well for the future.
Title: Re: Demonweb pits/Darksun Games
Post by: Thomas callahan on November 28, 2010, 07:30:00 PM
Well as a group no we did not win, but i never got caught so technicaly i tied those archons ;D

and its a book mod, theres going to be encounters that you cant win so it can force you to the plot.

The rats where made to make sure you dont trust rule of three and the lady pain, so you keep your mind open to what ever schemes there planning

The archons where to take you back to the tower and for more information to be given to the party, or another option besides working with RUle of Three.

NOW, a question to steve. If you animate undead to a creature that could fly, is the new zombie able to fly as well?
Title: Re: Demonweb pits/Darksun Games
Post by: Guu on December 20, 2010, 01:24:02 AM
Are we going to play Friday?  Christmas Eve and all.  Is the store even open?
Title: Re: Demonweb pits/Darksun Games
Post by: Lykosan on December 20, 2010, 09:40:05 AM
Christmas Eve the store is closed at 6pm as far as I know, but besides that Jay said no game for friday night.
Title: Re: Demonweb pits/Darksun Games
Post by: Guu on December 21, 2010, 01:02:02 AM
Excellent.  Everything is proceeding as I have foreseen.
Title: Re: Demonweb pits/Darksun Games
Post by: jbkilroy on December 21, 2010, 09:20:22 PM
That line doesn't have the same impact without being able to see the evil grin stretching across Palpantine's skull-like visage.
Title: Re: Demonweb pits/Darksun Games
Post by: Guu on January 06, 2011, 11:28:33 AM
So we *do* have a game this Friday, yes?

That would make sense.  We were on for Christmas Eve but canceled, then New Year's Eve was an off week, so now we're on.

I'm so sure we're on.

It's on.
Title: Re: Demonweb pits/Darksun Games
Post by: Guu on January 07, 2011, 12:33:07 AM
They're calling for a snowstorm tomorrow night, and if it snows a lot then I won't be there tomorrow.

Right now I have a wait-and-see idea.
Title: Re: Demonweb pits/Darksun Games
Post by: skavengear on January 07, 2011, 01:17:22 PM
its only 2-6 inches, and not until about 7-9 that it starts
Title: Re: Demonweb pits/Darksun Games
Post by: Guu on January 07, 2011, 02:02:41 PM
Yeah, I'm leaning towards going ATM.

It shouldn't be too bad.
Title: Re: Demonweb pits/Darksun Games
Post by: jbkilroy on January 07, 2011, 05:04:20 PM
I heard maybe 1 inch tonight and the rest overnight.  Shouldn't be a problem.
Title: Re: Demonweb pits/Darksun Games
Post by: Guu on January 20, 2011, 05:43:34 PM
Calling for snow again tomorrow.  Apparently it will be frontloaded in the morning and clear by tomorrow evening, but if the weather's bad you won't see me at Battlegrounds.   :(

Title: Re: Demonweb pits/Darksun Games
Post by: skavengear on January 21, 2011, 05:47:32 PM
It is apparently not that bad, but of course, ill try to be there things look good as of now
Title: Re: Demonweb pits/Darksun Games
Post by: jbkilroy on April 01, 2011, 12:39:44 PM
Last posted in January?  Really?

There has to be some kind of irrelevant discussion I can get started to keep the interest going...

How about:

Halo is the best/most innovative series ever vs Halo is the worst/most derivative series ever.  No hedging or waffling, make your pick and defend it to the death.

You may begin...............................................now!!
Title: Re: Demonweb pits/Darksun Games
Post by: Lykosan on April 15, 2011, 01:13:43 AM
There will be no game tommorrow night, Jay will still be going down there and I might be as well to play board games and the like if people still wish to show up.
Title: Re: Demonweb pits/Darksun Games
Post by: Skarsnik123 on April 15, 2011, 04:39:15 PM
Hey everyone, Jay finally getting on these posts.  FYI there is no game on Friday the 15th, because at least 2 of the party members who are currently alive will be unable to attend. (Tom and A J).  Feel gree to stop by if you want.  Steve and I plan on playing board games this evening
Title: Re: Demonweb pits/Darksun Games
Post by: Skarsnik123 on May 13, 2011, 05:15:12 PM
Hey guys fyi Steve said he would be late or not be able to show tonight.  AJ said he cannot make it.  Dave said he would be down though, and i reminded him yesterday.  Worst case scenario we still run with 4 characters since we have been doing that few weeks anyway.
Title: Re: Demonweb pits/Darksun Games
Post by: GossWeapon on May 13, 2011, 07:19:32 PM
I will try to be down.  Im waiting to get my final grades so I know if I need to whine and beg so I graduate or not.
Title: Re: Demonweb pits/Darksun Games
Post by: Skarsnik123 on June 10, 2011, 05:33:19 PM
Ha Ha Ha Ha.. Everything is proceeding according to Rule of Three's plan....erp Oh no i shouldn't have said that.  But seriously I hope everyone is having a good time in DWP.
Title: Re: Demonweb pits/Darksun Games
Post by: Skarsnik123 on June 18, 2011, 04:00:08 PM
Just reminding you guys that i won't be around for the upcoming session.  MY bro is getting married. 
Title: Re: Demonweb pits/Darksun Games
Post by: Guu on June 20, 2011, 11:50:58 AM
Did we play last week?

Does anyone want to get together for other games or maybe a 1-shot?

Nathan is in and he could bring his game Soldier Kings.  Which is FUN!

We could also play red dragon inn.  Rick could maybe do a paranoia 1-shot?
Title: Re: Demonweb pits/Darksun Games

The whole concept is looking pretty desolate at this point.
Title: Re: Demonweb pits/Darksun Games
Post by: jbkilroy on June 24, 2011, 05:24:01 PM
that mean nobody is going to show?

Reckon so!

Guess I'll go home and stress test my new RAM then.

For three years I never knew my 'gaming rig' PC only had 2 gigs worth installed... oops
Title: Re: Demonweb pits/Darksun Games

We're gaming this Friday though, right?
Title: Re: Demonweb pits/Darksun Games
Post by: jbkilroy on July 06, 2011, 11:30:17 PM
I hope so.  Last time, nobody told me that a 32-bit version of Windows could only handle up to 4 gigs of RAM.  I spent Friday night and most of Saturday reinstalling all my programs.

Post by: Skarsnik123 on July 08, 2011, 05:04:23 PM
Yes.. Barring any unforseen catastrophes we will be gaming tonight. (7/8/11).  Hope to see you all there

Well, does anyone else want to goof off, or are we calling it a night?
Title: Re: Demonweb pits/Darksun Games

I don't mind goof, but it's past 4PM on Fri already and I'm just reading this now... might be too late.

OK sorry about last week.  We are definitely on for tomorrow night.  Only one more chapter left in this module.  Hope you all are still having fun.
Title: Re: Demonweb pits/Darksun Games
Post by: Skarsnik123 on September 01, 2011, 02:39:50 PM
There appears to have been some question if we are playing tomorrow night or not.  My work didn't screw up this week so I will be here for game.  Hope you guys can all make it.

Post by: jbkilroy on October 07, 2011, 09:15:23 AM
One week from now (the 14th), what's the plan?

Josh mentioned to me an obscure game called Toon where you play as a Looney Tunes type of character.

I'm willing to try that out; what does everyone else think?
Title: Re: Demonweb pits/Darksun Games
Post by: Guu on October 07, 2011, 03:45:48 PM
I'm willing to bet this will be a conversation between you and I, Rick.

I was looking over Toon last night.  We could do a 1 off.  I also wouldn't mind playing Ghost Stories or Red Dragon Inn or what have you.  (These being board games, of course.)
Title: Re: Demonweb pits/Darksun Games
Post by: jbkilroy on October 11, 2011, 05:58:17 PM
No matter what the game we need more than two people...
