Thanks for the greeting and I will keep my eyes open for an appropriate adventure to participate in.
Still kicking around an idea for running a new adventure here!

Almerin do you have any plans for an adventure that could possibly revive Loco Fungihammer as a character?
Would need your help with the details as all my former info was mind wiped from my former laptop.

Subject: Interesting Concept
Is there anything else a person would need to know as a player in your adventure?
As stated elsewhere I just got back to the Inn and my time over the next few weeks is severely limited.
I am kicking around an adventure concept that I may decide to run here at the Inn when I have the time to devote to it properly.
Meanwhile I am on the lookout for participating in an adventure to get my creative writing an entertaining outlet, so I will stay tuned to what develops with your adventure without making a commitment at this time.

My Apologies Odyson for having to disappear from the Crimson Crusaders as I too was enjoying that adventure!
Some of my notes were lost in the shuffle and at some point I would just probably begin a new adventure and just run a Main NPC as the Castle Keeper/GM/DM.
I learnded some valuable lessons running Crimson Crusaders and will be able to develop a much smoother running adventure when I am able to get things lined up properly!
Glad you are enjoying your other games!

..... to reading the development of this adventure.
This is only my 2nd day back at the Inn and I really do not have the time right now to devote to a game.
Plus not being familiar with those books, although if I were able to participate the pdf would be sufficient.

Topic: Still Alive and Well
Subject: Scheduled to go back to Ghana
I am scheduled to go back to Ghana later this month to teach in the Bible School that I taught at last December!
Maybe I will come up with an adventure scenario to possibly start another adventure at the Inn in the next few months?
I would use the Castles & Crusades format that I have used in the past as a Castle Keeper, but I would have to purchase an item or 2 that the Troll Lords have published this past year for what I would incorporate into the storyline!
Some of you remember Crimson Crusaders and Land of Xenophobia (both cut short by unforeseen circumstances) where I also wrote other Player Characters as well as being the CK (GM) ..... but this time I would only be taking on the role of the Castle Keeper and concentrating on the NPC characters!
Just a thought and will give it some more thought and kick around some ideas over the next few days!

Subject: Not Too Early Eol
I have not even been lurking these past several months and a few days ago I surfed the net to www.reddragoninn.com and was mystified that the familiar Inn was nonexistent there!
Then I realized today that the proper www.rdinn.net would have to be utilized to seek out old friends!
Took a few minutes to remember my Password before taking the plunge back into the Inn and greet the current InMates!
Now I can lurk from time to time again!
Thanks Eol for the greeting!

Subject: Oddly Enough ...
..... the rolls for both Tohmaz and then Trossach were 20s so at first I was going to use my Critical Hit deck and Fumble Decks, but decided on Double Damage for the 20s and Half Damage for rolling a 1, which is what happened with the Orc that tried to attack Karvilo and sliced his own leg!
They were also Charging which upped their Damage doing!
Thankfully there are Potions and a Heal Wand, plus the Heal Beads (which do not function until tomorrow evening game time!)

Subject: Okay Gang
I am now awaiting the results of your choices to respond against the attacks of the charging Orcs!
Drogo and BluddGrinn posts are now up which should give you an idea of how to respond and the action you may choose to take for Combat Round 3 of Turn 1.
You may want to back post anything as you are waiting for the charge, otherwise you may have to do your back posting after the conclusion of this battle and before we depart from Botkinburg on Wednesday (game time!)
It is currently Monday night and the Heal Beads do not activate until Tuesday night (again game time!)

Topic: The Crimson Crusaders
Subject: BLUDDGRINN First Blood Drawn
It almost seemed like slow motion as the vicious orcs ran across the clearing towards the concealed Crimson Crusaders who had all taken their positions behind the foliage and timber at the far end of the 100 foot by 40 foot clearing.
In their savage fury the orcs were unaware of the 8 ambushers who had literally become the first line of defense for the inhabitants of Botkinburg.
Then Trossach let the arrow fly straight and true, penetrating the base of the lead orc's throat, stopping his sworn enemy dead in his tracks, 35 feet from where BluddGrinn was waiting!
BluddGrinn nodded his approval and held his position without letting any of the charging orcs know that he was waiting patiently to claim their lives.
BluddGrinn and Drogo held their ground in their secluded positions as the remaining orcs charged across the clearing, snarling their defiance as they relentlessly advanced towards their unknown assailants!
Instinctively the orcs charged towards the end of the clearing and swung their battle axes into the foliage where the 8 Crimson Crusaders were holding their own makeshift line of defense.
Orc #5 managed to cut the right arm of BluddGrinn;
Mere moments ago everything seemed to be running in slow motion. BluddGrinn had secured himself a position at the end of the clearing that should prove (at least in his own mind) to be the most advantageous for springing a surprise attack against his hated foes!
Years of combat underneath the Aratock Mountains had honed the battle senses of the War Cleric to such a degree that when he was motivated by the blood lust for battle against his hated foes, BluddGrinn was able to bring it into focus and under control enough to prevent the young War Cleric from hazarding his own life and the lives of his companions unnecessarily.
He had counted upon his Crimson Crusader companions to follow after him, in an attempt to aid the War Cleric in what most likely would have seemed to some of his companions as a reckless move on his part to seek vengeance against his hated foes the orcs.
BluddGrinn was well aware that Drogo Tulk would follow him into the very jaws of death without much of a second thought for his own safety, but the War Cleric must be certain (within his own mind) that his companions would prove to be no less valiant in their efforts once they began exploring the unknown evils hidden away in The Black Tooth Ridge.
The young War Cleric had no doubts about the Barbarian named Trossach. His conclusions soon proved correct as he gripped his Staff of Power in anticipation of springing upon the sub chief that was leading the charge across the clearing.
BluddGrinn was satisfied enough when the Slayer Arrow from Trossach's Oath Bow ended the life of the sub chief a mere 35 feet away from where BluddGrinn was waiting in anticipation of a swift and bloody battle. He was not so much disappointed by not being the one to kill the orc war band leader, as he was thrilled by the sight of one of his hated foes being startled at the swiftness of its own unexpected demise, while charging in anticipation of wreaking havoc upon more innocents with its bloodied blade!
He was aware of Drogo to his immediate left, who seemed to be a quick study in the art of this type of warfare, when all of your senses screamed to unleash a blood curdling war cry and rush head long into the face of unknown opposition.
BluddGrinn was even more satisfied as one of the Barbarian's fire arrows ended the life of another orc that would have run headlong into BluddGrinn's hiding place if it had not been cut down by the force of the arrow from Trossach's bow.
He also noticed the success of the Ranger to his right as two more orcs were suddenly felled as they raced across the clearing by the Slayer Arrows that Trossach had given to the Ranger. The slain orcs by the Slayer Arrows given to the Monk did not escape his notice either!
BluddGrinn was slightly amused by the results of the normal arrows shot from the bows of the Bard and the Rogue, plus the arrow that found its mark from the bow of the Shaman after such a splendid display of his use of the Entangle Spell to entrap the unsuspecting orcs, allowing the Crimson Crusaders to concentrate on eliminating the 21 orcs that had unwittingly outrun the effects of the Entanglement Spell that Tohmaz had cast against the unsuspecting foes.
As the remaining orcs rushed forward in their charging lust for the blood of those Emerald Crusaders who had eluded them earlier in the day, the young War Cleric braced himself for the clash of weapons and spilling of blood that had so long been denied him since he and The Tinker had made their way to the surface world those many months ago.
BluddGrinn could hear the sound of blades seeking to penetrate armor before a sharp pain in his right arm alerted the young War Cleric to the fact that his hated foe had been the one to succeed in drawing first blood in the battle at the end of the clearing.
The young War Cleric grimaced, but maintained his balance, as he instinctively swung his Staff of Power in a counter attack against his hated foe!
BluddGrinn will stand his ground in toe to toe combat with orc #5 until his hated foe is slain, then he will seek to slay the nearest orc that remains from the 21 who charged across the clearing, before advancing against the remaining orcs who are entangled at the opposite end of the clearing!

Topic: The Crimson Crusaders
Subject: DROGO TULK First Taste of Battle
BluddGrinn and Drogo held their ground in their secluded positions as the remaining orcs charged across the clearing, snarling their defiance as they relentlessly advanced towards their unknown assailants!
Instinctively the orcs charged towards the end of the clearing and swung their battle axes into the foliage where the 8 Crimson Crusaders were holding their own makeshift line of defense.
Orc #3 swung his battle axe wide over the head of Drogo Tulk;
Drogo Tulk of the Short Swords was momentarily glad that he was much shorter than the wild arc of the swing of the battle axe that passed wide over his head.
He had been almost enthralled by the results of the Entangle Spell that the Shaman had cast over the opening of the clearing and the snarls of the entangled orcs could constantly be heard as their victims struggled to free themselves from the unexpected trap.
Thankfully, none of them were able to loose their cross bows, or at least had not done so up to this point, while Drogo remained crouched behind a fallen tree, watching for the first sign of BluddGrinn making his initial attack.
Drogo was glad that the Barbarian had felled the leader that had charged ahead of the pack and was also thankful that his friend had dispersed some of his Slayer Arrows to the Monk and the Ranger. They had also found their marks and thinned the ranks of the onrushing orcs.
Twice their Slayer Arrows had found their marks and the Barbarian had also dispatched another orc with one of the flame arrows that had mysteriously appeared in a red quiver upon his back, apparently a gift bequeathed by his deity prior to the battle at hand.
The young Halfling Fighter was not able to see all the action that had transpired by the firing of arrows, but he was aware that a couple of other orcs had been struck by the regular missiles fired from the bows of his other companions.
Briefly a few wishful thoughts crossed his mind as he remembered his short bow that he had left behind, but Drogo gripped his twin short shorts and waited for his friend the War Cleric to spring from his hiding place to engage his hated foes in face to face combat.
Drogo had decided that he would not spring into action until the War Cleric had first done so, but when he saw the orc charging toward his hiding place, the young Fighter sensed his muscles tensing and thirsting for the opportunity to dispatch the orc with his twin short swords!
But the young Fighter held steady as he waited for BluddGrinn to spring from his hiding place to confront the charging orcs, but Drogo did not notice the War Cleric budging from his place of seclusion.
All Drogo was aware of were the sounds of battle axes biting into the armors of his nearby companions and the whistling of the battle axe over his head that caused his reflexes to instinctively react against the foe positioned directly in front of him!
It was not so much a dance as a reaction as Drogo Tulk of the Short Swords sprang into action, his twin short swords seeking the vile flesh of his fetid breathed opponent, his twin blades slicing upwards and outwards in a valiant attempt to dispatch the foe who had charged blindly and swung his weapon over the head of the Halfling Fighter who silently vowed that not one of these charging orcs would ever reach Botkinburg alive!
Drogo leaps towards the orc #13 directly in front of him and will make sure his foe is dead before attacking any other orcs that are threatening to break through the line of Crimson Crusaders towards Botkinburg!

Your Healing Stones do not activate until Tuesday evening and this is basically Monday evening!
You are carrying potions that will restore some Hit Points and the Shaman and Cleric have Healing Spells, but everyone is a tad busy at the moment and need to Kill Orcs!

Topic: Crimson Crusaders QnA
Subject: Actually
The order of the Crusaders is a straight line at the end of the clearing in 5 foot squares of a 40 foot wide clearing:
Monk, Shaman, Barbarian, Fighter, Cleric, Ranger, Bard and Rogue.
The Orcs directly facing each Crusader are as follows:
13 faces Monk, 21 faces Shaman, 14 faces Barbarian, 3 Faces Fighter, 5 faces Cleric, 17 faces Ranger, 10 faces Bard and 9 faces Rogue.
16 is behind 14, 20 is behind 5, 19 is behind 10 and 18 is behind 9.
In the clearing Entangled from left to right beginning from 80 feet in front of the Monk and company are as follows:
_ 22 _ _ 23 _ 24 _
27 _ _ 26 _ _ _ 25
_ 28 _ _ _ 29 _ 30
33 _ _ 32 _ _ _ 31
_ 34 _ _ 35 _ 36 _
The 3 trails that empty into the clearing are directly behind 34, 35 and 36 but you are unable to see if any Orcs are Entangled in those 3 paths!
Hope that makes things clearer because I will not be posting a map of this in the game!
