Chapter 73

First we visited the church of Mannon.  It seemed a perfectly normal church to the god of the sea we saw nothing to indicate why it was marked as dangerous on the Shadow gangs map.  We did get more information about goings on in the city.  Countess Emmanuelle Von Liebewitz is the city leader and prominent figure in the wizards guild.  She is known to throw fabulous parties about once a quarter.  She is also unmarried (which might change once she has met Morgan).

Next we went to our scheduled meeting Donna.  We told her about the Shadow gang and she asked about Tony.  It seemed they grew up together.  She took the poisoned arrow to have it analyzed.  Taking about training Morgan she told us she was busy preparing security for the next ball (in ten days) but would talk to her superiors to get clearance and for us to come back at noon the next day.

With the afternoon free we visited Tony to follow the Shadow gang.  He had people watching them but his men had been unable to deal with them because the watch turned up.  Which chatting one of his lookout came in and told us they were all leaving.

We waiting the large group of militia to the city gate into the upper town.  The leader showed some paperwork to the guard and went through with the rest dispersing into the city.  We followed him to the Becker estate where the gate-man let him in.  Returning to the gate Haley tried to user feminine whiles to get information out of the guardsman.  She got a brief tour of the area and a date for eleven o'clock the next day but did not find out what the paperwork had been.

Blood Bowl Inducement Review

Blood Bowl Inducement Review As most of the inducement options from Death Zone are allowed in LBBL games I thought it was worthwhile providing a summary of what is available.  I have also added a quick colour code to say if I think the options are Good , Bad or Situationally useful.  Remember as per the League handbook you must bring along an official copy of the relevant rulebook for any Inducement you are using.  This guide is intended to be used to help you decided if you want to buy a copy of Death Zone not as a replacement for it.  Remember folks we get an extra 5% off at Geek Retreat on League night! Death Zone offers (In)Famous Coaching Staff, new Wizards, Named Referees and a small number of other cheap options for using up petty cash.   0-2 (In)famous Coaching Staff Galandril Silverwater 40,000 gp Elven Kingdoms Extra Cheerleaders and a minimal chance of extra Team Re-rolls if that kick off event happens.  I will pass thank you.

Death Zone 2020 - A Review

Image
    Once again we have a beautifully produced full colour book that is slightly marred by the lack of proof reading.  Almost everything in the book is a reprint of the 2016 content updated to use the new team special rules.  There are little things such as Ranulf the Ref still having to "roll higher than the AV of the player" even though the main rule book changes AV 7 to be AV 8+ being everyone else is having to roll equal to AV.  Then we have the new Mercenary rules where the Elf starts with AG 2+ but can increase this by 2 to AG 0+ when AG 1+ is the max allowed!!? New Inducements This section takes all the inducements printed in the old Death Zone and Spike journals and updates them to use the new team special rules.  Instead of being taken by an Orc or Dwarf team they are now Badlands Brawl or Worlds Edge.  This expands which teams can take them.  Some of the inducements have had minor alterations and there are a couple I have not seen before.

Arcane Trickster

The Arcane Trickster is my favourite sub-class in Fifth Edition D&D.  It is not the most powerful but is a lot of fun.   Trickster does not need to multi-class but a single level of Wizard gives a big boost with access to all first level spells, ritual casting and we can trade out our known spells for more Second Level options.  Best spot for multi-class is level six but if we have a game where we expect to spend a long time in Tier 1 we can also dip at level 2. Rogues get lots of choice for using a Bonus action and Reaction as we go up levels. Actions: Attack; (3) cast a spell Bonus: Off-hand Attack; (2) Dash; Disengage; Hide; Mage Hand; (13) Versatile Trickster Reaction: (4) Shield ; (5) Uncanny Dodge; (6) Feather Fall ; (17) Spell Thief A trickster wants good Dex and Int as well as Dark Vision, after all it is hard to sneak around carrying a torch.  If we are using point buy that gives us three choices in the PHB - High Elf, Half-Elf and Forest Gnome.
