Death on the Reik Pt I

Wednesday, June 21st, 2006

The Enemy Within Campaign moves on apace as our valiant party (now an Outlaw, Toll Keeper, Spy and myself a Cat Burglar) flee Bogenhafen. Half a days travel later (and a few mutants dispatched) sees us in the possession of a boat, replete with cargo of wool.

Quick travel to Weissbruck gets us involved with rescuing a local herbalist from some gang members, before hiring an actual boatman for the journey to Altdorf. Once in Altdorf we made a few purchases, and took on another cargo - this one bound for Kemperbad. That was the session pretty much in a nutshell.

Other points of note for my character - harassed by some more Purple Hand nuts (who made my hand purple!), found my name on a Wanted poster (20GC on my head, not bad… I’m holding out for more!)

Next session due Thursday next!

Shadows over Bogenhafen

Sunday, June 18th, 2006

Well, finished another roleplay session in the wonderful world of Warhammer. Today saw the completion of the Shadows over Bogenhafen adventure (converted to version 2 by Mike) which netted me enough experience points not only to switch to the Cat Robber career, but also to take a couple of statistic advancements (Agility) and new Skills (Concealment, Pick Lock) and Talents (Trapfinder).

Also managed to make my first break-in this session but alas was into a warehouse full of trade goods so nothing good to loot. And along with firsts, I managed to net two Insanity Points.

The Sunday session has been moved to Tuesdays to compensate for Mike being away for the next few weeks which means we move over to Death on the Reik in two days time. Hopefully I’ll get the chance to do some proper thieving now I can break and enter, as well as keep fairly hidden. Fun times - only 1500 XP to get to Master Thief or Fence (not decided which yet!)

Flying Solo

Irritating facts…

  1. This is the second weekend on the trot I’ve had to work
  2. Both weekends have had lovely weather I’d have liked to been out in
  3. Today, my erstwhile partner for the weekend called in sick
  4. This morning, the phones were ludicrously busy for a Saturday

This does not a happy Andy make.

On the upside, I’ev watched Doctor Who as I always do of a weekend (whether it be on Saturday or Sunday after “borrowing a copy”) and found it a little fragmented. Not particularly bad, just fragmented.

Spending my evening watching the ever excellent Firefly so no great shakes - can’t do much else seeing how I have work tomorrow as well.

Also, irritatingly, City of Villains still reuses to play correctly on my PC since the last patch or two - apparently the devs have tracked down a problem and a fix is coming but… well, it ain’t here yet!

A Testament to How Frequent…

… I don’t update my journal!

Yes, I’ve not written anything for months, since really nothing notable has happened in that time. Been to a live roleplay event, finished the Ravenloft Campaign, started the Warhammer Campaign, chatted to people online, attended my new job regularly, overcome the infection of my gums.

Fairly full schedule of not much happening.
