SESSION RECAP:

    After the tournament was over and new allies recruited, the party took advantage of their momentum and hired some more hirelings and henchmen. With that done, they were finally ready to face of the red dragons.

    After 5 days of uneventful travelling, they reached the area of their lair. The map that they have acquired was correct and they were able to spot the red dragon that was on guard duty without being spotted.

    Then, they had the illusionist cast phantasmal force to make a small army, a replica of the party, to appear behind the dragon. That forced the beast to come out of hiding and use his breath weapon against the illusion. This was the perfect oppurtunity for the party that attacked him and started fighting him with all it got!

    The battle was hard and Norbor lost his life due to the monster's bite. However, the party prevailed, slaying one more dragon!

THOUGHTS AFTER THE SESSION:

    That was one of the simplest sessions to come. They knew were the dragons were, they followed the map and they attacked them.

    Luckily for them there were no random encounters in this journey. Also they used the illusionist very well once more, allowing them to attack the dragon from behind! Another important detail is that Norbor with his keenblade, he managed to cut off one of the legs of the red dragon, forcing him to make only two attacks per round instead of three! However, destiny once more demanded that he should die. It's not his first time though, so perhaps he will be back soon.

    There is one more detail however. The know that there are three dragons there and they only killed one. The party already makes plans to return to Verbobonc and I think they underestimate the possibility of another dragon appearing to take revenge.

    We shall find out soon what destiny has in store for them...

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! It's a ruleset created by

  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 members of the p

PCs: Urikas the elf, F1/MU1 Samwich Baggins, halfling, T1 SESSION REPORT:     At Fireseek 11th of 576 CY, Urikas and Samwich arrived at Hommlet. In the local inn they heard rumours of giant animals frequenting the nearby woods way more often than usual. They decide to go and investigate. They will also take with them a few locals that are willing to help. Elmo the ranger, Spugnoir the magic-user and Furnok the thief.      Thanks to the ranger's tracking skills, they manage to find out that the animals are coming from an old Moathouse, that 10 years ago was used by the cults of the Temple of Elemental Evil to control the area. At the gates of the moathouse they are attacked by 6 giant frogs. They managed to beat them, however the party was seriously wounded in the process, so they decided to retreat and come back the next day.     Indeed, at Fireseek 12th they return to the Moathouse. They enter without any problems and Samwich decides to investigate the small watch tower that is cl
