That closer than Cronk like but great job, Friends! 90 gold to each party member. Tomas get Remedy. Potion to Gligan. Aragon get Mead. Then I believe party will go to gate of Fortress and tell them friends have arrived.

In brightest day, in blackest night, No spammer shall escape my sight. And update the indices, I might. Beware my power... Regulator's Might!

Cronk thank Tomas for the healing. Much appreciated. Cronk will bash Spear B from front row. Aragon will attack Spear C from front row. No reason to change order so will be same.

Cronk thanks Glorfindel for shielding friends again. Cronk will bash Mercenary Spear C from front row. Aragon will attack Spear C from front as well. If Spearman defeated early those lower on list will switch to other targets. Cronk will keep same order this round.

Cronk will bash Mercenary Sword C from front row. Tomas, please change target to foe Tomas can defeat in one turn. Cronk can bash this one. Cronk will again use same battle order.

I think whether LOTR will be here or in History will depend on if it replaces the Castle theme entirely or if there would be another historical theme running at the same time. Those darn historical revisionists! How can they leave something out of a textbook so essential to our history as a people as the War of the Ring?! Why if it wasn't for Frodo, we'd all be speaking Orcish right now. Castle itself has never been all that historically accurate so I don't see a problem with LOTR ending up in a forum with it. But let's not get too far ahead of ourselves. We don't even know this is coming, yet.

Cronk is stunned... Battle order will be the same as last round.

OOC: Oh, man. And I was ging to sharpen my pointy stick... I assume Reckard and Olfrid belong in the battle order I determine. Will you tell us their targets or are those a surprise? To battle, Friends! Cronk bash Mercenary Sword A from front row. Order for this round: Cronk Aragon Glorfindel Reckard Olfrid Gligan Tomas

I'd like to see if the animals look well cared for. How many are there?

Well, then. Pet Store, everyone?

Is there anything else we do have time for? Something close maybe?

If Hulion need no further help, Party can continue on road to Tanco. Cronk think it best friends get there sooner rather than later and since everyone in good health, why not start out now? Party is glad to have helped, Hulion. Cronk hopes that Hulion can get some rest now and be ready in case Paladins need Hulion's help later.

I'd have to agree. Unless we want to check to see if he stole the department's fine silver.

If it is okay with Tomas, Cronk vote for healing. Cronk will even give Tomas 10 gold to cover cost of buying new remedy. Oh, and before Cronk forget, Cronk would like to ask Tomas to hold onto this Healing Staff until friends get back to Heroica Hall. Tomas may get some use out of staff if ether too low.

We should keep an eye out for other stolen police property. It's interesting that the Chief would have lied and said it was broken. Maybe he gave it to Hutch to keep him quiet about something. I'd like to ask the other officers present if they remember anything else being "broken" and then replaced lately.

OOC: I'm back. Thanks, Tammo for leading. Cronk happy Reckard feel better. Hulion can lead us to another friend to be healed by Friend Tomas.

Cronk agree with target stated for Cronk. Friend Leo, use other sword if fighting lizard again.

Situation sounds dire in Tanco. Could Tomas help heal other knights to help reinforce Paladins? OOC: Since I put Tomas in charge, I'll leave it to him to decide if we want to move on yet.

Cronk and friends hired by Paladin Order to help at Tanco. Party is from Heroica. Is Hulion in need of any assistance before friends travel on? OR can Hulion tell Cronk anything about fighting going on? OOC: I'll post this here so it isn't lost in all the drooling over the advanced classes. I'm going out of town again on yet another long weekend trip. I don't know for sure how often I'll be able to check in or if I'll even be able to for a couple of days. Until I get back I'll put Tomas/Tammo in charge as leader. He can also choose actions for Cronk if I'm not around the quest needs to move forward. Sorry about this. Stupid family commitments.

Makes me think of Stratego... Nice customs and posing. It has to be hard to match those pics so well especially any poses that rely on bent elbows.

I think when most of us refer to "fleshies" we are talking about all of the shades that licensed figures come in. There are "fleshies" with brown skin (though admittedly they seem much more rare and in larger sets than other tones ). Realistic skin tones is the reason they stopped using yellows in licensed sets in the first place.

Wow. They're all so very cool. I think Cronk makes the most sense as a Paladin but I think he'll try Mystic knight and Warden at some point as well.

Thanks to all for the birthday wishes! For your enjoyment, an embarrassing picture from today: My daughter is somewhat obsessed with birthday parties. So for lunch, my wife baked what I like to refer to as a "Hagrid Cake" and my daughter forced us all to wear party hats. They wrapped a small box of Swedish Fish for me to open afterwards. (My actual present was a forty dollar Bricklink order about a month ago. It included 300 1x2 Dark Red plates. )

I'd ask for a paternity test, Haldor. That card she gave you may have been slightly used.
