Two teams enter, one team leaves.
All of these notes are subject to confirmation by Halifax.
General Stuff:
- Rules are mostly 2nd edition AD&D, straight out of the book, with some stuff from other settings and/or editions thrown in for fun.
- Monster stats for summoned or other monsters are all from the 2nd Ed Monstrous Compendium.
- Hovering at Death's Door house rules are in effect.
- All weird/ambigous spell usages should be run by Halifax. Don't post about them unless you want to tip your hand.
- Because this is just a big fight, miniatures and terrain will be used. This means that stuff like placement, cover, distance, and facing all depend on where your figure is. Distances are in the 1" = 10 feet/yards (indoor/outdoor) system. Rulers and tape measures will be used only after actions are declared, so practice eyeballing distances. Making paper cutouts of your spells' or powers' areas of effect is strongly encouraged to save time in the game.
- A rule declared in the books and thereafter ingnored by almost all of us will be in place: Actions are ALL declared BEFORE initiative is rolled. We will do this by writing our actions for each round on a card or paper, and then revealing in init order. The extent to which one may change one's action based on events that occur before you go will hopefully be clarified by Halifax in these very pages. However, if you declare you are casting a spell you must specify which spell, and then you have to cast it or let it fizzle.
- The Time discussion
- The Place discussion
- Players can sign up below. There are eight characters on a team, but due to the anticipated high casualty rate four or five players should be perfect. Pick a team, any team. (Note: to claim a character you want to play, put down your claim under the discussion tab of the team's page.)
- As will be perceived, characters are provided with vague physical descriptions on the team pages. This may not be what your characters look when they actually meet, but let us assume that we have seen each other at a distance, or scried, and this is what we looked like then. People can sign up for a character by selecting a physical appearance that is pleasing to them or by requesting a class, should the classes be unclear or misleading, and I will then simply I assign you the wizard you were dying to play. Complicated requests ("I wish to play a thief who is not an elf") are fine provided they are possible given the characters as they are. Someone may wish to play the "team leader."
