Opening Announcements for November
Special Announcements
· Police your bottles/cans/chip bags etc. We got some comments about it ruining the vibe in the tavern.
· Be mindful of fighting in and around doors. Please do not block people from entering or leaving a door, do not swing blindly around corners or doorways
Combat
· Machine gunning: people MUST pull their swings back 45º before attacking again.
· No head shots please: according to the rules people take no damage from a weapon attack to the head, but they do take spell effects (we are sorry).
· Charging. We take charging seriously, but there have been some calls of charging that seemed suspect. If there is imminent physical contact during a fight, this is charging.
There is a natural back and forth that exist in any combat. This is to be expected. Charging is an OOG safety issue, and should not be called because of in-game safety or comfort. If you feel uncomfortable disengage and reset yourself.
· No running on the deck, no jumping off the deck. (YEARS ago we had someone break their clavicle after jumping off the deck)
· Full incant before throwing any kind of packet and before any kind of weapon swing.
· Three calls everyone should be aware of; Altered, Reduced, and Healed.
Altered means that the creature took the effect, but it did not have the expected or usual effect. (IE: A bird is hit with Bind, normally this would mean its arms would be held at its sides, but a bird attacks with its beak. It can’t fly away but it can still peck at you. The NPC playing the bird would call altered.)
Reduced means that the damage suffered is not as much as it normally would be. This can be due to hardened skin, magical protection, etc.
Healed means that instead of suffering the intended effect, the creature is healed by it instead. (IE: A Flame Elemental is struck with Flame Bolt, but instead of taking damage it heals instead.)
If someone is worried about a PC not following the rules please bring it to a marshal’s attention, please don’t be confrontational and mean with the PC. If someone is worried about an NPC not
following the rules please grab a marshal AND tell one of our NPC guild members and/or our plot team so we can give them more guidance with cards in the future. We have a lot of new NPCs and want to make sure they know how to play their card but sometimes it is a big card and it’s hard to remember.
Wards and Things
· Wards/Blissful rests: The W or B respectively needs to be up before the casting or you just flubbed your spell/ritual and will have to do it again. TENTS are wardable, same rules apply.
Kitchen Stuff
· Sanitizer not a dishwasher, it is on its last legs and will die soon.
· If there are too many dishes piled up Monster Camp will stop running.
· There is recycle but no compost here, so please no food waste in the Recycle bins.
Logistics
Logistics is open from 5-6 pm on Saturday. If we are late we will run for exactly 1 hour. Last time some people were on mods and such during that time and those people will be accommodated after their mod is over. If you need to change some spell slots just talk to your Marshals and they can sign that.
- Opening will start at approximately 9pm.
