i -might- not be able to make it, stuff happened and i -might- not be able to get out of work in time. I hope these are not true, but with my luck, they are.

looking at some of the spells we have set up here though. i Might point out that Yard is quight able to cast Bulls and what not on himself, at least i think he is. Katrien is a bard isent she? Sooo. bards can cast Mass Haste too.. cant they? Oh yea and dont the drow and whatever down there have +5 weapons.. or something? Kinda makes Stone Skin a waist of slots if they do, though its still helpful against some spells and lesser monsters we might find..

I need to know if you cant come atleast 4 hours before we supposed to meet Mith, so I can find a replacement. If you dont say anything, I'll asume you can go, otherwise let me know.
Yes Yard can cast his own bulls, he can also cast stoneskin and alot of otherspells. But Yard is treated to being a fighter, so he will taken care of. I want equal, or close to equal conditions for the figthers. And Katrien is being treated aswell. If she can cast ekstra spells when we need them in battle, buts its up to the mages to make sure she dont have to. And yes most things have +5 weapons downthere, but many things rely on basic psysical damage and stoneskin is the best to absorb that up. Stoneskin is never a waist, especially not if your fighting one particuliar monster. I hope that cleared up some things.

Is this really realistic considering he said he will be at work and often people can't pop on at work or even know if they are going to get out on time until the last minute?

I dont force people to come, I dont take them away from work. But if they -do- sign up I want to be able to have them know if they can come or not. I have all the respect for RL and work, and I realice that something unexpected can happen. But as I said, Ive gotten lots of PM's for this trip, and I could have picked someone else instead. Therefore i would appreciate a tell from him, so I myself have a reasonable time to find a new person to fill his time. 4 hours is quite a short time to say your not coming anyway. But I want to give him as much time as possible.

This bard does not have Mass Haste. My general party role is usually sing... stay out of the way...sing... poke a few arrows... sing... dump healing as necessary till a healer can get to 'em ... sing..

Thats why we love you. Plain and simple.

I'm terribly sorry, but Gunther wont be able to make it after all. I really wanted to go too. RL reared its ugly head and intervened however. Speaking of which I'll pretty much be incommunicado all next week also.

I apologize for joining up one day and bailing out the next, I know its a pain.

All I have to say is "WOW"

Xandor Loriland · « **Reply #29 on:** August 18, 2006, 10:15:49 am »

Just a couple of quick comments on the battle plan. With Spell resistance, since it is level dependent I would suggest having the highest level cleric cast as many of the SR's as possible. Especially for the people that might get killed quick by a couple of spells. I acknowledge that each of these takes away a heal spell so it needs to be spread a bit so just a suggestion. I have seen the combination of bard song and curse song together give a huge advantage against the hard to hit monsters. Just a thought to keep in mind.

If you notice Ive gotten the highest level fighters get Athus spellresistance, then the next highest get yours. and then last the mages and bard get Voons as we wont be in the middle of battle. I think this is the best way to spred it out. But im open to ideas, and if it turns out theres a better way to cover 12 people with spell resistance, let me know.

Xandor Loriland · « **Reply #32 on:** August 18, 2006, 12:17:03 pm »

I think you have a great plan. LETS DO IT.

This trip was the best birthday present I could have thought of. The trip was very well planned and executed. Way to go Linda. Lets do it again soon.

Emerald Skye · « **Reply #37 on:** August 18, 2006, 11:30:34 pm »

I had a great time everyone. It was an honor to work for you Linda. The group was outstanding and knew their roles well. Thanks for letting me be a part of it. You did a GREAT job with the organization of this whole trip. Emerald has her Emerald now . Yippee!!!!

Great planning on Blackguy's part, well done!!

New fan for Athus, woo!

I'd call it a great succes, especially since I also managed to show up for work after having finished in the morning.
