I have a question relating to the main thread. Should we bury the dead? Is a blessing enough? Funeral pyre? What is the custom for men fallen in battle, in a situation like this, as Lawful mercenaries like Soval might follow it anyway? It is customary to bury or burn the fallen. Neither will be particularly easy in the West Hall, though you could have two Men carry Grim's body back to the camp outside... I missed this being on vacation. Is it too late to send Einar and Hallam back with Grim's body as we continue, as part of the end of turn 4? As a Lawful type Soval would have wanted to do this. I am out of vacations for the summer so this problem shouldn't come up again - after I finish with the contest prizes I should even be able to finally winnow my equipment list!

Out of town through Sunday night. Sili will defend the party against anything nasty that comes through that door!

All,
My apologies if my replies have been slower than usual the past few days... I have been working long hours on a Darkness Beneath adventure for the next Fight On!
Normal service will resume very shortly ;D

All,
Despite our starting out with thirteen eager PCs I can't help but note that only four players have posted once a week over the last month. It may have been even quieter the previous month.
As it's struggling for momentum, I'm thinking of closing this one up so I can dabble in a couple of other games instead...
Let me know your thoughts.

I linger at the base camp and it does not bother me to be player at a slower pace than my fellows in the halls. If you need to stop, however, I'll not hold it against you.

I'd be very sorry to see this go as I'm really enjoying the experience! However, I appreciate the difficulty in maintaining the momentum when posting is increasingly fragmented, and if there's other stuff you want to do I completely understand. Regardless of whether the game continues or not, many thanks to you and my fellow players for such an engrossing and enjoyable campaign. That battle with the Trolls will long linger in my memory! (I'm having a blast in the 'Hinterlands' campaign too, by the way!

I understand your frustration, WOTE. I've enjoyed the story quite a bit so far, but with 1/3 the participants as we originally had, it has lost some of the fun. Too bad, really. But your decision to drop the campaign would be understood on this end. The lack of participation by people who asked to join is certainly frustrating to other players - it is even more so to the GM, I'm sure.

Thanks for the encouraging words people. It's clear that there are still a few who are keen, and that's enough for me to keep it going for now.
I might try the opposite tack, and see if I can't round up a few more players to join the ranks...

Gah! You scared me, WOTE! I logged in to see new comments on the 006 thread and the Fallen Heroes thread!
Thank goodness that was just a late update from the troll encounter!

Thanks, WOTE. Sorry I didn't get to that. August and early Sept were hell months, should be a little more reliable from here until the orcs chop me head off.
