Session 4: The Short Session


PCs:

Urikas the elf, F1/MU1
Samwich Baggins, halfling, T1


SESSION REPORT:

    Once again, the party needed to spent one week resting before they will be able to adventure. Zyla decided to help the local temple of St. Cuthbert. Spugnoir who almost died but was saved by the PCs, reveals that he joined the party because he heard rumours that a warlock lives in the Moathouse and he was interested in magic items that he could have.
    The local trader offers 4 hirelings to come along to the party's adventures at a good price. So, at Reading 6th the party heads back to the Moathouse. There however they met a strong resistance from a group of brigands. One hireling perished and since the group had some injuries, they retreated back to Hommlet.
    Aaaaaaaand that was it for that session! :P


LOOT AND KILLS:

Loot:
136 gp
50 gp worth necklace

Kills:
6 brigands
1 sergeant


THOUGHTS ABOUT THE SESSION:

    As you can see, this was the smaller session. It still is to this day. Why is that however?
    Zyla's player informed us that he couldn't make it tonight. So the other two started playing. Unfortunately after about half an hour, another player had to leave, so I finished the battle with the brigands with the last layer controlling every party member and we called it a day.
    Well, these things happen. Especially when you play through the internet and know the other guys personally, it's possible that things will come up or you will just be bored and leave in the middle of the session. It's the downside of gaming with players from a distance.
    Even by playing that little, the party managed to do some damage and weakened even further the defences of the Moathouse. Bare in mind that the brigands and the monsters of the dungeon are not unlimited. Soon enough the bad guy must make a move.
    And I have a good one in mind!

Campaign Report: OSR, Quickly (A West Marches Campaign using Whitehack 3e)

  WHAT IS THIS?     In my OSRIC campaign we have a small break of two weeks and since I am up to date with the session reports of that campaign, I will say a few things about other games that I participated in. This one in particular is one that I hold dear in my heart because it was my first OSR campaign that I' ve played and the first OSR sessions that I was a part in! I joined this games discord server on 2021 and played in this game for more than a year! So, I will describe what we did and how it went! THE RULESET     As you can see from the title (and the image at the top of the post), we used Whitehack 3e for this campaign. I have already said that my ruleset of choice is OSRIC/ ADnD 1e but I am open to try other games, just like I like playing games other than DnD from time to time. What I want is to have rules that are consistent, help you understand the spirit of the game and provide you a specific goal.     Whitehack does that amazingly well!...

Cauldron OSR Eurocon 2024 Day I

             Wonderfull news! Me and two players from the OSRIC campaign attended the European OSR convention known as Cauldron in Germany! I will cover on this post how I experienced this truly amazing convention! Bare in mind that some details might have be mistaken because I didn't expect to write a report about it but I am so fired up by the con that I really want to share as much as I can! Also there will be major spoilers for every module I was involved in so be warned that if you want to play them in the future, skip carefully that part! Let's go then! THE TRIP     I began the journey to Germany from Athens where I live. I met Nico, my only compatriot in this adventure, at the airport on Thursday morning, the first day of the convention. I must admit that in the beggining I was a little sceptical about this whole expedition. I didn't know any of the guys involved in person besides Nico, I hadn't been in Germany before so we were really...

Session 50: Battle Of The Iron Wood

  PCs: sir Korin Clubfoot, dwarf, F6 Dame Mia the elf, T5/MU4 sir Norbor the half-orc, F5 PARTY'S HENCHMEN: Cleon, F4 Falhed, R1 Gravoldel, R1 Briu, T1 Vailbezal, I1 Larth, P1 Rhadum, R2 Jared, C1 Bierduth, C1 Zasti, MU1 Rotoris the elf, MU1 10 light horsemen 2 mounted crossbowmen SESSION RECAP:     The party starts preparing for the attack. The fact that a powerful magic user was part of the group that they were about to face was very worrisome. So they decide to use Mia's stealthiness as well as a potion of invisibility and a potion of undetectable poison that they had from previous adventures to take him out. The plan is to have an invisible Mia approach them when they prepare the meal of the day and poison the food that is intented for the magic user. Their prisoners informed them for the time that they usually eat and also for the fact that the wizard eats alone at his tower and one of his servants brings him his food.     However, the group knew that some ...
