Or that group (Which in reality we characters in the game, wouldn't know anything about) can work its way toward us, and we can work our way toward them, meeting up in the middle (probably surprising each other in the process)??

"Bible thumping Tin-man! Shoot it!"
"Blaspheming whore of a spider's loins, Smite it"
"er... wait, he's a good guy, ..."
"er... wait, that's not Lloth about yer neck.."

"Shall we start over?"

Nah...it'd be much more fun to shoot the paladin. Paladin-on-a-stick anyone? It's a drow delicacy!

Even if our characters can't get to the site of where the horn was blown quickly (which I'm not sure they'd know) taking a recon. around the area could be useful. And we could also attack any camps we walk near to.

Will submit it in a post, and see if the group agrees. No sweat if they don't. After all, it's only a suggestion ...

Tomorrow is my move along update date....
Would like to have a clear direction to move everyone tomorrow... please let me know...or else I pick a course of action...

Chris goes back to bed now

I think Dwibius' plan is fine. I might not be able to get in a post saying as much, so I thought I'd say so here.

Ok things should be getting back to normal now for me, I'll have about a half n hour every morning to go on the internet, and then maybe at night too. Just post that Xaris is going along with any plan, and that he will throw himself into harms way when needed.

"Buuuuut, if we fortify at the bridge in front of the keep, we can take on the northern camp on this side of that bridge, while the northern camp on the most likely will go to the sound of the horn. That means we will only have one group to fight, keeping those reinforcements from getting to the horn's source."


I'm sorry, please forgive my lack of understanding here, but...I have no idea what that means.

Yeah I'm a bit confused by that too...which is a little strange because it made perfect sense when I looked at it after having a drink (or four).

Ok I have a feeling that Dwibius/Intella is suggesting that we cross the bridge leading into the keep.

That is not a good idea! The keep is bound to be occupied by gobbos, and the bridge leading into the keep I would expect to be heavily guarded.

I would much rather go around the keep in a sweep of the camps - even if that takes a while.

I'm at a loss of what to make of it really, so I can't say anything until it's clarified...

Hmm, well, from what I decipher from it, I'd have to disagree.

If you mean 'fortify the bridge' to be either make it uncrossable or maybe destroy it, well... we don't have much at our disposal to do either, so I'm going to say to just stick with the plan that was kind of thought about, and slowly working our way around

due to lack of any clear direction, I'm not updating today for the main group. Please discuss via Q/a a solid course of action and I'll take it from there.

Yea, That's kinda what I had gathered too G.

Which is why I wntd clarification on it.

So, I agree, not such a great idea. I liked the idea of jumping on our horses, galloping across the bridge Aelistae fixed, and taking out the camps as we pass them. Those are my thoughts on the subject, and so long as everyone agrees, that's what Artanis is gonna do. So consider her already mounted, armed and ready to go.

Intellas suggestion was based on the location of the camps (and bridges) that I had in my "mind's eye" image of the area.

Turns out that image was inaccurate.

BUT if we do as Artanis suggests and ride to intercept the occupants of the northern camp on our side before they can reinforce the northern camp on the OTHER side (or before they can get to the bridges), then we will still only have the one group of bad buys to fight ...

I will amend my post, and I apologize for not having my stuff together before I post ...

on updates now..
will hopefully have them done soon.
