===Henry's Game===
===Game 1===
Summary of the proposed adventure: you're all agents of the Royal Homeland Constabulary, a special police force in the city of Flint. You've spent all summer trying to track down a terrorist, with no luck; finally there's what might be a lead... but it turns into a mystery all of its own.


The setting is at the beginning of an industrial resolution: the old world of magic and fey meets the new world of steam power and firearms, and society has to walk the tightrope between the two.

Game 2: (?) Pathfinder Arena Game?

My understanding from the last game was that this was more fun as a player vs. NPC fight rather than as a series of challenges. Craig (talk)

A level 9 game (25 point-buy characters) in an arena with a Random event generator.

I also seem to recall that the arena effects didn't kick in as frequently as I thought. Should the threshold be lowered for events? Craig (talk)

Characters will all have average HP (Con and any other bonuses on top of the below) -
d6: 6 + 28 = 34;
d8: 8 + 36 = 44;
d10: 10 + 44 = 54;
d12: 12 + 52 = 64

The arena will be 26 x 28 squares
It will have 3D features such as scalable buildings, elevated platforms and gantries and walls all of varying heights. There will be both regular and difficult terrain in the form of areas with stone, sand, grass, water etc. as well as trees and more dense shrubbery.

Some rules

  • Each player has 2 characters, but only one in the arena at any one time.
  • Characters can be swapped by tagging at an arena wall
  • Characters will not be able to buff for 30 minutes before the start (effects lasting longer than this can be pre-applied)
  • Characters will enter the arena by being teleported to the start area in the arena.
  • Each character will have 2 rounds to buff before the teleport.
  • Direct, deliberately damaging attacks on other contestants will result in disqualification, though damage caused incidentally by frustrating your opponents (such as by a spell effect pushing them off a ledge) is allowed.
  • Flying is acceptable (not quite sure how we do that with minis) but there is a ceiling height of 50 feet and the fly mechanics (e.g. skill rolls) will be used as appropriate. Characters who go higher than 50 feet, for any reason, will be deemed to have exited the contest and be disqualified.
  • Other creatures:
    • Companions, summons etc. enter at the same time and in the same location.

Accommodation

If it's at my house we have lots of room and sleeping bags / duvets a'plenty. - Craig
