Troll Lord Games

thanks, same to your wife

Turns out is was good we canxed . Storms hit last night at 1945 comms went down after that until about 2300, so I'd have not been able to play last night any way.

Agreed, the goblins/orcs were terrible. So was just about everything else though. I understand trying to fill in some of the missing info that Gandalf reveals later, but not 2 full movies worth. Gandalf was portrayed as a weakling and in need of rescue by the White Council. There is no basis for th...

Rgr that with 2 out of 3 missing, and since it is going to be a fight, that is a no joy for tonight Hope you all have a good one The girls worked together and pulled everything together like they knew what they were doing Rubbed Steak, & chicken breast, shrimp kebabs, vegie kebabs, grilled egg plant...

I didn't think about it being memorial day coming up.

The girls and I am grilling for the family and a few others, but it will be lunch so it should be finished and cleaned up by game time.

Will every one else going to make it ?

18 May Recap To fill in info I forgot to mention 11 May 2020 At the mass father O’Malley noticed some of the windows at the church have been boarded over After the fight Ms Tamarel Fanny Sonnenberg is shaken to her core. Having come face to the face with the realization that there are demon spider i...

Good wx, good coms (for back woods OK), and earlier no issues with discord, so I should be good to go !

11 May 2020 recap As the group prepared to leave the coffee shop and started to head back to the hotel, for once their coffee paid for by someone else, they made their good bys from Mr Louis Bergson, Ms Tamarel Fanny Sonnenberg, and the other Jewish associates, they hesitated They are tired of putti...

rain off and on all day, but it is just rain and not storms or high winds. So far, my internet is holding.

With that, I should be good to go for the game tonight.

Storms hit about 15 - 20 min after I posted it Luckily their bark was worse than their bite. LOTS of lightning, some hitting less than 1/4 a mile, and they were strong enough to feel the concussion from them even that far away. Only pea sized hail, so no damage there, and no extremely strong winds. ...

Big storms already starting to hit here. Going to be one of those nights & coms will suck

Ha So does my wife When I laughed outloud at your reply, my wife asked what was so funny. I explained about the Spider Imp, and then the dream your character had , Her reply was "Nope, I'm done, I hate you and that you would even think something like that up" Now there is no hope she will ever play ...

27 Apr 2020 recap The group spent a restless, but uneventful night. Father O’Malley went through the rooms and gave a basic prayer to at least calm the nerves of the group. He also spent some time praying over water and produced 2 vials of holy water in case they face more mystical foes in the next ...

20 Apr 2020 Recap Just realized I didn't post this last week sorry The group nervously looks at the note Friend, enemy enemy … a hotel name and room number … one more thing added to the ever growing list of items to look into. There is 2 hours before time to meet Mr. Arthur Carl Fichte for dinner. W...

The problem with the core rulebook, as has been pointed out in some reviews in the past, is it's a bit overwritten. For an example, spending a point of momentum in the rulebook says you buy 1d20 and the d20 is treated as rolling a 1. It would have been easier for Modiphius to write that spending a ...

Spider Imp Ok since the Monday Night Ne’er-do-wells finally took the time to do the research needed to figure out what exactly the new little beasty is that has been following them and spying on them in the AA Masque of the Red Death game, I can share it here The Spider Imp NO. ENCOUNTERED: 1 – 4 (a...

crud, I was hoping you all would say it sucked and wasn't worth it … I guess the wife is going to give me another one of those looks Thanks for the info on it. I like the idea of all the color of uniforms having a job and promoting team mentality. Thanks for pointing me to the quick start rules for ...

I knew I had experience with this before, but it took me a while to dig it up Putting on my devil's advocate hat … My character Lupa had a ring of blinking, which hops the wearer back and forth between the ethereal and the material. I was fighting a dragon with a fire attack breath weapon, and that ...

So I just checked my e-mail and saw a 'Bundle of Holding' for Star Trek from Modiphius Entertainment

It is one of the more costly bundle I've seen. Not sure I'll get it, but wanted to see if anyone around here knows anything about it, if they like it, or would advice for or against it.

Good question My gut reaction was "no I don't think so", and I don't think it has been allowed in previous games I played … but then when I though about it, I've never played a magic caster so I would be making long leaps of memory that may not be correct in remembering events where I was busy swing...

Doyle’s dream You fall into a fitful exhausted sleep. As you drift into oblivion you jerk awake. The room is dark, the darkness grows filling the room in gloom. Your vision is clouded and you can no longer see your surrounding but you feel your bed supporting you in the darkness. As you roll in bed,...

good wx here so the game should be a go for me

Thanks, glad you like it. I have 2 others almost ready to post. Yeah I tried for a Numenorean flavor and not just 'Strider' in the books. One of my favorite campaigns in MERP was one set in Kingdom of Cardolan as it fell. The Duenaidn were not limited to only Rangers of the North, so it opened them ...

Soul sucked out by a gem. I thought you liked your son

CK, rgr on target make a save. To me 6 of one (on the caster placing it perfectly) half dozen of the other (on the target making a save). 2 ways to skin a cat. As long as it isn't both it works for me. Blinding flash. That is the problem with running different games. It isn't C&C, it is from Amazing...

Dirt on the floor, or stalking on ground, then write a word or 2, or have the thief use his thief's cant to draw a symbol . If in a dungeon with stone floors, chalk, or a bag of sticks to lay out a basic symbol of warning, direction to go etc.

I'd say sure it is possible. Something like have the caster make an int (or Wis if a cleric) base attack. If it hits then the spell is placed correctly on the end of the target's noes and it is now at a negative to hit. A crit puts it in its eye and blinds the target. Isn't there a blinding flash sp...

Ok I've been reading and rereading Hero's Journey, and its Tolkienesk got me thinking and pulling up old ideas The main idea I've looked at is modified races to fit a Tolkien flavored world. Now, years ago I posted Racial Character Classes (& I still lean to the preference of making race a class). H...

Sorry I had to miss it, but coms went so far south that I couldn't even listen to music on YouTube … me and buffering music or complete silence is not a good mix.
