Another Peaceful Day in Arkham!

<Excal> 3d6 Will Check
* Hatbot --> "Excal rolls 3d6 Will Check and gets 6."12 [3d6=3, 2, 1]
<Excal> ... you've got to be kidding me.
<Excal> Exhaust Bravery for Reroll.
<Excal> 3d6 Will Check
<AndrewCrossEdge> (Not a Horror Check)
* Hatbot --> "Excal rolls 3d6 Will Check and gets 11."12 [3d6=1, 5, 5]
<Excal> ...
<Ranmilia> I don't think you can, yeah
<AndrewCrossEdge> (Will =/= Horror, unfortunately)
<Strago|Dexter> Bummer city.
<Ranmilia> 5d6 to close gate?
* Hatbot --> "Ranmilia rolls 5d6 to close gate? and gets 18."12 [5d6=1, 4, 6, 6, 1]
<Ranmilia> Yup.
<Shale> HAAAAATBOOOOOOOT....okay, that's better.
<Strago|Dexter> Yay!
<Excal> 6d6 to Shoot self in head
* Hatbot --> "Excal rolls 6d6 to Shoot self in head and gets 16."12 [6d6=3, 2, 2, 2, 2, 5]

[AndrewRogue]

<Gatewalker> I am supposed to roll something for Jenna in here
<Gatewalker> what do I roll?
<Excal> Looking that up.
<Excal> The guys who are experts wandered off.
<Ranmilia> Ah
<Excal> Fight Check, at -1
<Ranmilia> Need to roll a Fight at -1
<Excal> Which...  looks like a single d6
* Excal sets mode: +o Gatewalker
<Ranmilia> Current fight is 2...
<Ranmilia> So yeah, single d6.
<Gatewalker> d6 for great justice?
* Hatbot --> "Gatewalker rolls d6 for great justice? and gets 4."12 [d6=4]
<Gatewalker> is that a good thing?
<Ranmilia> Alas!  Failure.
<Excal> So, that's -1 Stam, -1 San

[AndrewRogue]

You ever hear that ol' Hibb's is haunted?

Miskatonic Arctic Expedition Returns!

Any Elder Things previously claimed as monster trophies by players return to life and are placed in the river docks. A clue appears at Independence Square. A gate opens at Hibb's Roadhouse (Yuggoth). Two ghosts emerge from the gate. Moon moves on white (ghosts stay stationary) and Cross moves on black.

You all know the drill.

This move is illegal. Insufficient Speed to move from Arkham Asylum to Hibb's Roadhouse. Please adjust your turn accordingly.
Resolved.

Additionally, the Game One page should be up to date. I will work on updating individual inventory/status tomorrow evening (shortly after the Encounter update). Please let me know if there are any errors or if you have any suggestions. You can find something else to do with your criticisms.

[Ranmilia]

He has a +2 Speed ally.  (Yeah, I had to doublecheck too when I first saw it.  >_>)

[Lady Door]

Ah, right. His new acquisition. Thank you!

In the future, please do be explicit about where your numbers are coming from. It helps me keep track and I do tend to overlook something when it's not made "naked man standing in the middle of the room painting himself red" obvious.

[Excal]

I had always wondered how Andy had originally gotten your attention.  Now I wish I was still wondering.

[Lady Door]

<_<

Sister Mary makes a move for the Black Cave and collects 2 Clue Tokens, which she desperately needs. She now has 2 Clue Tokens, hooray!

(I may or may not come back and edit this post to include her current stats/inventory. If it's relevant to anyone, let me know and I'll be sure to.)

[Hunter Sopko]

Sorry about that, LD. I'll be more clear next time.

Rolled combat for the Ghosts. Suffice to say, I ain't afraid of no ghosts. I claim 2 Toughness worth of monster trophies and await to be thrown into the gate!

<Soppy-WhatsTheFlayva> So gonna be fighting those ghosts.
<Soppy-WhatsTheFlayva> #1, Horror check
<Soppy-WhatsTheFlayva> 3 stat + 1 for Will skill. Minus 2 for modifier makes 2 die
<Soppy-WhatsTheFlayva> roll 2d6
* Hatbot --> "Soppy-WhatsTheFlayva rolls 2d6 and gets 6." [2d6=1, 5]
<Soppy-WhatsTheFlayva> Yay
<AndrewXEdge> Yay!
<Soppy-WhatsTheFlayva> Fight Check. 3 stat + 3 Magical Weapon. Minus 3 modifier makes 3 die. 1 Toughness
<Soppy-WhatsTheFlayva> roll 3d6
* Hatbot --> "Soppy-WhatsTheFlayva rolls 3d6 and gets 10." [3d6=1, 4, 5]
<Soppy-WhatsTheFlayva> One dead!
<Soppy-WhatsTheFlayva> #2, horror check
<Soppy-WhatsTheFlayva> roll 2d6
* Hatbot --> "Soppy-WhatsTheFlayva rolls 2d6 and gets 5." [2d6=4, 1]
* Merlin has joined #RPGDLArkhamHorror
<Soppy-WhatsTheFlayva> Spending a Clue token, I get another 2 die (due to Will skill)
<Soppy-WhatsTheFlayva> roll 2d6
* Hatbot --> "Soppy-WhatsTheFlayva rolls 2d6 and gets 9." [2d6=6, 3]
<Soppy-WhatsTheFlayva> Fight check
<Soppy-WhatsTheFlayva> roll 3d6
<AndrewXEdge> I'm not sure Will actually counts for Horror
* Hatbot --> "Soppy-WhatsTheFlayva rolls 3d6 and gets 11." [3d6=1, 5, 5]
<Soppy-WhatsTheFlayva> Eh? It's a Will check isn't it?
* AndrewXEdge glances, but eh, you hit it on the first die
<Soppy-WhatsTheFlayva> Woo. Killed both ghosts

ARKHAM ENCOUNTERS

Alex/Kate

You must buy one of the following if able:


Sopko/Darell

Into the gate with thee!

Djinn/Mary

Bats! HUNDREDS OF THEM! Pass a Speed (-1) check to get out of the cave safely. If you fail, lose 1 Stamina.

Shale/Vincent

You find a student pounding on a strange device that he has hooked up to a massive machinery. He states that it is a dimensional beam machine. If you offer to help him, make a Lore (-2) check. If you pass, beams shoot out in all directions, disrupting the gates open througout the board. Roll a die for each open gate, one at a time. On a success the gate is closed. However, you may not take it as a tropy, but instead return it to the pile of gate markers. If you fail, the machinery overheats and explodes. Roll a die and lose that much Stamina, then move to St. Mary's Hospital.

Excal/Jenny

You encounter a friendly old professor from Miskatonic University. If you spend 1 gate trophy, he introduces himself as Professor Armitage and offers to join forces with you. Take his ally card if it is available, otherwise draw 1 unique item.

Nitori/Monterey

You must buy one of the following if able:


OTHER WORLD ENCOUNTERS

QR/Carolyn

You come across a slaughered creature. Pass a Luck (-1) check to claim a monster trophy from the cup and gain 2 clue tokens.

Soppy/Darrell

Pass a Fight (-2) check to lever back the lid of a stone chest. Inside, you find $8. If you fail, lose 1 Stamina.

Strago/Dexter

The cylindered head mocks your hopes. "You'll never return home!" it cackles. Pass a Will (-2) check or lose 2 Sanity.

You all know the drill.

[Hunter Sopko]

I fail to open the chest and lose 1 Stamina. Not worth wasting Clue tokens on this.

<Soppy-WhatsTheFlayva> So 3-2=1 die!
<Soppy-WhatsTheFlayva> roll 1d6
* Hatbot --> "Soppy-WhatsTheFlayva rolls 1d6 and gets 2." [1d6=2]
<Soppy-WhatsTheFlayva> Shucks

Since I have no Gate Tokens, I'll have to pass on this action.  I'm assuming the item comes from spending the Gate Token if he's not available as an ally.

[11:52] <AndrewRogue> HUNDREDS OF THEM
[11:52] <Djinn> Oh SHI-

[11:56] <AndrewRogue> To escape the bats, you need to roll a speed (-1) check and get a success.
[11:58] <Djinn> Okay, let's run away from these sunmabitches
[11:58] <Djinn> 2d6
[11:58] * Hatbot --> "Djinn rolls 2d6 and gets 11." [2d6=5, 6]

Well, there's no way I can make the Will check, and that Sanity damage would kill me. So I discard my Obsidian Statue to prevent deathness. Sigh.
