I mean that, yes, there is a long way before we emulate something remotely like professional soldiery. And, like you have pointed out, this is a good time to focus on more foxhole-buddy-actions, and less on Machiavellian assassination schemes. But, like all dog handlers know, you get farther with praise than scorn - you should make sure to point out every time we actually do something a little better instead of focusing on how long we have to go before we are a perfect team

Scorn is the only language you dirty scum will understand -as well as the loss of hitpoints!!!






Nah,you are right . ( I just didnt really think my input mattered that much anyways in the matter ).

You guys did survive the engagement that I was sure that I had designed in a way that would kill at least 2-4 PCs . The infighting ( my most deadly trap ) got two.

The NDP attacks nearly killed three.

Only due to cooperation and on the spot agreements to carry on fighting shoulder to shoulder were you able to force the encirclement and shoot yourselves free.

You then proceeded to helping eachother through extremely difficult times ,were most were wounded-and some were on the verge of slipping under and spiraling towards protracted death by multiple gunshot wounds and complications.

This was all good . In the continuance of the scenario I sincerely hope that those who acted selflessly will recieve gratitude and loyalty and that those who took a beating will have earned the respect of the others for their valor.

(Tune in pompous music ..)

Only together will you be able to fullfill your destiny - and face the carnage that awaits you.

I see a new era dawning in the party - no longer will the one who is most ruthless be first among equals. Only valor and noble deeds will bear meaning.

Only courage will be the measure of the man (PC).

Looking forward to playing the next round - buddies in the foxholes it is..and teh hounds are baying.....

Yeah, there´s hope in a hanging line like we say in Norway - next session will be quite nervy though. If our survival depends on group cohesion (like it seems from the pre-release), then it will be a thriller indeed.

I will of course try to create a "pressure cooker " to try to provoke a response that isnt optimal for the group as a whole or downright deadly for individual members of the group.

Since you will depend on eachother ,forging bonds at an early stage is probably a good idea- like they say in the doorman business - the likelyhood that someone will punch you drops by 90% if you started the conversation by shaking their hand....

I hope to see good cooperation - and perhaps even noble acts of some sort.God only knows that you guys have enough to atone for..

Anyways -seafood,beers,the boathouse and the deep south in summer -looking forward to it !!

I was out in my boat yesterday - it was a fabulous day. I went snorkeling to check out a new spot looking for marine goodies. I found a really great place to gather blue mussels, the delicious, edible marine bivalve mollusc we all know and love! I can guarantee that we will be feasting on an epic serving of Moules Farcie. I'll be cooking at least that dish!
