Is there any interest here on how I do figures for RPGs, or is that a different department of the site?

Chirine would bring a mess of figures to Phil's and sit there and paint like a fiend as we gamed. At the end of a 4 or 5 hour game session it was amazing how much he'd painted.

I think that would be cool.
Remember when we were escorting Vrisa and her hubby and Origo and a few others who happened to be travelling north towards Milumanaya with the Legion and we saw an old ruin, and Phil did everything but put up billboards with flashing signs saying "Player Characters Go Here?"Originally Posted by chirine ba kal
And this was the same thing we did in Phil's campaign; Phil would throw some Dire Peril at us, and we'd think out way out of it because we'd thought about the possible situations in advance and had a 'drill' for dealing with the crisis.
Phil: "Hah! Your legion is suffering from an outbreak of dysentery!"
Gronan: "Oh, really; here, let me see the report, there, Professor. Chirine?"
Chirine: "Here you are, Glorious General! As per your orders, the latrines were all dug well away from the water supply, and they're working fine."
Phil, disgusted: "Fine. Be that way. You get attacked by bandits in the middle of the night."
And so on, and so on, and so on...
(For the rest of you, the non-military PCs went into the Underworld and had their adventure, and Chirine and I calculated that if they went down about the time the front of the Legion passed the entry, they were back out before the rear guard of the Legion had finished passing the entrance.)

Yes. And search me.Is there any interest here on how I do figures for RPGs, or is that a different department of the site?
Though I would suggest starting a new thread so people who are interested in painting and modeling don't necessarily have to wade through all the other posts.

I have read that Magic Users are a treasured resource, closely guarded and hoarded by the clans and temples.
Was this something that can up in play or is it something that was appended later?
If in play, how and what impact did it have?

The way Phil usually did it was to intimate that Temple mages had knowledge and powers not available to common garden variety users of extraplanar powers. If we'd tried any serious shit with the temples it might have been more of an issue.

I'll see what I can do...
Yeah, that was one of the funnier game session! Phil was already in a cranky mood, as we'd fought off his local tribesmen pretty handily; I'd specified that we were using the same formation that Richard I used at Arsuf, using the Sakbe road instead of the sea to protect our flank; being cagy, I drew up the plans and made sure not to mention Arsuf by name. Phil would have recognized it instantly, being an authority on the period...
So, they came on in the same old way, and the Glorious General beat them in the same old way. Phil was hugely cheesed off, as he got a whole lot of his brand new light infantry killed off for n good reason or result. So, when the ruins showed up on the line of march, Phil almost dared us to take some of our troops in there to get them ambushed; we simply smiled at him indulgently, and told him "That's what the player-characters are for, to have adventures..." and sent them in.
They cleaned out the ruins and busted the ambush, and were back in time for dinner.
Just to keep the pressure on, I smiled sweetly and offered to get one of those brand new model railroad light-up billboards for Phil to have, when ever this kind of thing came up. He knew I'd do it, too, and in Tsolyani...
