Hello all! Welcome to the area, please chat here and work out your charicters as the forums go up.

I apoligize to all for not posting anything yet. I have been very busy, and worn out as a result. I got Heroes of Battle earlier this week, specifically for this. Unfortunately, my face-to-face campaign has taken up my time, and I have not been able to but start reading the book. I will read it, most likely cover to cover, tomorrow, and start getting the forums up.

I would like to thank Boomlaor for finding the name generator(though it really doesn't generate anything). It will be a great resource for us all(I hope), and now I can have some way to come up with NPC names. I seem to be talking to only him and Exar, but I hope everyone else is at least lurking around here.

Exarzun · #4 17th of February, 2006, 15:12

Indeed, very good... should i do another post looking for more players?

generaljimX · #5 18th of February, 2006, 08:10

We could, but I think I'm going to wait till Monday to do such a thing, just in case they ARE lurking.

You guys hear that? Post if you're here!!!

Boomlaor · #6 18th of February, 2006, 09:09

Been a crazy busy week for me, have my character about half made, I'll finish him up and post him sometime this weekend.

Gnarsh · #7 19th of February, 2006, 04:48

I'm here.

Exarzun · #8 19th of February, 2006, 04:58

Yay we have 3 players!

generaljimX · #9 19th of February, 2006, 07:03

That's all but one. I'm just glad this didn't go to shit like so many other games. At least, not yet, anyway.....

Exarzun · #10 19th of February, 2006, 13:12

If you dont hurry it up it might

generaljimX · #11 19th of February, 2006, 14:36

Actually, I think I'm waiting for characters....I might not be...I don't know...its late.....and I'm tired...

Exarzun · #12 21st of February, 2006, 04:16

Hey General, you wanna throw up a description thread some where? Also, i assume you got my Char sheet?

Come on people, get those sheets in, i dont think a backround is to necisary, but knock yourself out if you want... If you cant think of anything dont worry, it's quite possible for him to be a normal person who just got sined up, military servus was manditory for the Romans. They had extensive training, which is why we are lvl 5.

generaljimX · #13 22nd of February, 2006, 02:31

I did get the sheet. I havn't really had time to check it yet, but I should be able to tonight. Also, I don't know what kind of description thread you want me to make. And, by the way, I don't mind if you guys make threads. Just try not to make too many.

Exarzun · #14 22nd of February, 2006, 10:12

Rightio, well come on people, lets get those sheets in, as soon as we do, we can get started!

Exarzun · #15 26th of February, 2006, 04:50

Hey! People! Come one!

Boomlaor · #16 26th of February, 2006, 16:04

mine's been in for a few days now.

generaljimX · #17 28th of February, 2006, 02:30

Yes it has. I feel bad, cause I havn't gone over either of them to look for errors. Man am I lagging behind on this thing. Not like I don't have a lot of time to work on it. I'll sit down tonight and check both of them, probably post Exar's to the forum, and start planning. I know, I know, I should already have it all planned out. I have a rough idea, but nothing concrete...yet.

Gnarsh, you posted you were still here on the 18th, but I haven't gotten a PM or a character sheet, or even a description from you. Are you still planning on playing? I really need to know so I can post for more players if not. I may post for more players anyway.

@Everyone: Do you have some kind of map making software to suggest? I'm going to take a look at Campaign Cartographer tonight(after I check the character sheets), and would like to know of something else that might work if I don't like that.

Wow. I'm going to have a busy night. And that's if I don't have any homework. Who am I kidding? I never have homework.

Gnarsh · #18 28th of February, 2006, 07:55

He'll be in soon.

Gnarsh · #19 28th of February, 2006, 08:35

Also, a question: Why does infantry get splint mail? Wouldn't breastplates be more accurate?

Boomlaor · #20 28th of February, 2006, 08:43

Lorica Segmentata was standard issue for legionaires, it's much more like splint mail than a breasplate.

generaljimX · #21 28th of February, 2006, 11:40

@Boomlaor- Vitus is currently built under 32 point buy, taking into account the +1 for level. It is supposed to be 28 point buy. Please fix this.

@Boom and Exar- How did you calculate HPs? I didn't post any kind of method, so I was wondering. If you both used the same method, it will be the one that will be used for all characters.

Boomlaor · #22 1st of March, 2006, 01:16

I did full hp dice for first lvl and half the dice rounded up for subsequent lvls. Not real familiar with point buy, I know that you start with all stats at 8 and then add points, but I'm not sure which numbers cost extra. I think 16 costs 2 points, so I've reduced both str and con to 15, I think that takes me down to 28 points, let me know if I'm wrong.

generaljimX · #23 1st of March, 2006, 01:32

That seems to be the standard for HPs. I'll look at the sheet when I get home(don't have books on me), and see if you're even now. Should be, or a little under.

generaljimX · #24 2nd of March, 2006, 11:06

@Boomlaor: Yep, you're right at 28 now. Didn't actually get to check it till now, but I did check it.

@Exar: Two things 1) could you please post/send a break down of your feat selections like Boomlaor has. I prefer to have it that way so everything is definately in order. 2) How did you figure your HPs?

@Everyone: Do you think I should advertise for more players? I kinda want to, but with everyone here done, or just about done in the case of Gnarsh, it would just delay us starting even more.

Boomlaor · #25 2nd of March, 2006, 15:37

Could always start and advertise, and have our unit be wounded and awaiting reinforcements until they are prepared. We could certainly start with just us 3 though.
