Oh, right, two more: "Snaaaaake heeeeeeaaaaaaad maaaaaaaaaaaaaan!!!!" Best greeting for a squire ever. Also, the wonderful what-are-we-doing thing with the device on Sunday. "Kurguard, go get the box" "Wait, why are we waving snacks in Morgrym's face?" "Kurguard, go put the box back and...

Well, let's see . . . First off, Glorious Red and her Amazing Box. "I am not a distraction" And my efforts to unlock the box, which eventually just made me give up and use the key I had. Wick using the "I'm covered in bees" battle cry about four times, and every time I saw undead go...

Speaking of ammunition phys reps . . . What is the most successful way to make a boulder which is soft enough to be safe, but weighty enough to overcome air resistance and actually fly? The rulebook suggests garbage bags filled with crumpled paper or open cell foam, but I can't imagine how...

Hey, man, if you supply the phys rep, I'll supply the tags. Lots of tags. But I don't have the gear to make a phys rep myself very easily. Paul Vorvick

So, now that there are rules for siege weapons (thank you Sean!), we have to get working on building one. Anyone have any good ideas for how to launch boulders? I'm thinking either a decently sized ballista or a simple torsion catapult. A trebuchet or onager has a little too many fast-moving...

In the new rulebook, the Resist Element section states that Resist Element may be used against flame-based traps (page 63). The Traps section states that Resist Element may not be used against flame-based traps (page 143). Is Resist Element usable to Resist flame-based traps?

There is the potential (though don't rely on it) that I might be able to show up at the event with an extra tent. I'll check with my school's Outdoor Program lending inventory. I should be able to, as I can't think of anything else that tent would be used for that weekend. I'll check in and...

Okay, maybe I'm just blind, but I can't find anything about whether we can/can't buy extra things in this chapter with gobbies. Could someone please tell me if there's anything available besides the standard rulebook stuff, and if so, what is it? Thanks, Paul

Yes, indeed, when I can actually get there. I've been running around as a guy named William Atherkell since the October game. Didn't make it to the last event, though, due to car issues. Why, should I know who you are? 'Cause that would be an interesting twist.

And that's my cue. Hi, my name's Paul Vorvick. I'm one of the people who plays Deadlands as a PC. Anyway, I'm a foamsmith, and I'm looking to start doing commission work for people. Most of my current stuff has been posted to steamtech.deviantart.com I can either teach you the technique, or...

I will be present at the gather in four weeks. My work during the winter has done much to improve my metalworking skills. Therefore, I ask all who will be present if there is anything they require. I have the skills and inventory to create many things. Simply let me know what is needed, and...

In addition to UL weapons, do you guys need UL claws? Or just standard weaponry? Thanks, Paul Vorvick

For music in general to get pumped up for game, I tend to listen to E.S. Posthumus (specifically Unearthed), and the Valve Orange Box soundtrack. In general, I'd recommend movie music (particularly trailer music) and video game music. Particularly with the advent of really serious composing...

Well, I think all my other ride plans have fallen through. No one on campus seems to both have a car and be willing to spend a couple hours helping me out. College students are, unfortunately, rather busy, and I can't get anyone else to go LARPing. If someone can step in and provide me with a...

Right, I forgot to post my address, didn't I? The address of the college is 2582 South Rd, Marlboro VT. Basically, you go up Route 9 from Brattleboro, hang a left onto South Road, drive a couple miles to the college, and then go back the same way. Thanks, Paul

Hey people. So, I'm looking to grab a ride up to the feast, seeing as how I don't own a car myself. I'm up at Marlboro College, about 25 min or so west of Brattleboro. Brattleboro, of course, is about half an hour south of Springfield. I can be picked up at basically any point, but I'd be...

I'll be there for sure. Whether or not I'm bringing an additional person won't be decided until about ten minutes before I leave, however. And, just to check, what kinds of brought food might be good for this? I can do some pretty decent cooking, but a basis to start from would be great. If...

Well, everybody, the survey is up! Go on ahead and answer some questions. I hope it'll be pretty painless. URL: http://www.esurveyspro.com/Survey.aspx? ... 505050f4db Password: foamsword That's about it. I look forward to starting the really in-depth stuff next semester, when I can really...

Exponential Resurrection Theory, and its Implications for Dwarven Survivability. Nice. I'll have to write a monograph on it. Essentially it'll boil down to "you know, life sucks for a 13th level dwarf with almost no combat skills." Note to self: buy something a little more useful in the...

Hey, people. So, as I stated at the October game, I need people to talk to me and give me scientific data to base academic papers on. Said papers will go on to become the essential writing for my Plan of Concentration, essentially making my major be based upon LARPing. But I need people to...
