Ok, thank you. And I'm sorry it took me so long to get to that. I've been kind of busy this last week. |

| No problem at all. Folks, no need to apologize for not playing. A PBP is supposed to allow for busy people to slip in a few minutes of gaming every so often. |

Well I have to say, I really am having a lot of fun so far. Thank you for that.  |

yeah, i'm loving my first good melee hit on a poor combat class, and getting minimum damage.
Does anyone want me to try the last resort spell and hope for a magic weapon result? |

Considering that most of us are uninjured, I'd say we're not yet ready for a last resort. Of course, your guy is the one injured, and he may feel differently...
Also, thinking of taking damage, are we using the Hanging at Death's Door rules, where -10 is dead and 0 to -9 is dying and unconscious? It was made core in 3rd, but here it's just optional. Probably a good idea, in my opinion. |
Doggedly converting 3e back to what D&D should be... Sigh... And now 4e as well. |

| Finally! That's a bit better. Btw, I'm adding 1 to my rolls on InvisibleCastle since these are kobolds and he's a gnome. It's a situational modifier, rather than something constant so I figured I'd save you the trouble of remembering it applies. Only works to hit, unfortunately. |

| Barshevy, can I recommend that you put the Spreadsheet and Combat map links in your signature? |
I actually DO know everything. I just have a very poor index of my knowledge.

Is that a racial bonus?
I hope this doesn't confuse everyone : I'm going to backtrack on what I said about "to hit" rolls. Please roll with your bonuses (strength, magic, situational, etc.) I'll compare that number to your unmodified THAC0 (or THAC0 - enemy AC)
This will help me a lot.

Will do. Won't look pretty for the moment, though.

Do you want us to start that this coming round, then? Otherwise, the 12 that I rolled hit an AC of 6. |

| I'm quite confused at this point. I just know that you put the kobolds to sleep, then killed exactly one kobold. |

Yes, +1 to hit kobolds and goblins is a racial trait of gnomes, just as the -4 to hit they impose upon "giant" type opponents is as well.
To what extent to you want us to show our work on to hit and damage? |

This is what you said. I was just wanting to make sure. Honestly, it isn't my intention to confuse you. Perhaps I'm misunderstanding, here. I have a modified THAC0 of 18, so when I roll a 12 (18-12=6) I hit an AC of 6. Again, I'm not wanting to confuse you, friend. |

Just the total bonus. "1d20+4=15" or "1d6+3=4" for example.

You hit and killed a kobold (K2) in round 2. I recorded this on my private spreadsheet and on the party map, but did not note which round it took place. And I also forgot to add it to the summary of round 2, which made you wonder if it got counted. Then when you asked me of it, I went *bzzzt*.
I'm going to have to record the actions of everyone per round, which will help me avoid such confusion in the future.

Oh, no, I didn't get that impression at all.
I also got you confused with Ashe, somehow. So yeah, I did a short-circuit there. |

| Actually, attacks on sleeping creatures auto-hit, and if we're out of combat auto-kill. |

Hoondatha, regarding negative hit points and death, I'll go with the core rules and say 0 means DEAD.
Sorry.
BUT if you continue with a new character, all previous experience points from the previous PC carry over. |

| And because "0 is dead", I'll also stay away from the critical hit rules. |

| Experience points have been awarded. The spreadsheet has been updated to reflect that. Please check my math. Each player should get a base of 23 xp (no need to thank me) before a 10% bonus, if applicable. |

| Also, you'll need to double up on riders, unless you continue on foot. Ariton will refuse to share a saddle with anyone, on account of his injury. |

Barshevy, I finally got my spare change calculated. Sorry it took a while, though thankfully it hasn't factored in yet. Nagrath has 14 gp, 10 sp, and 40 cp.
Also, looking over the spreadsheet, I see things got a little confused. My 100' of string turned into "Strike" and the poison got put down twice. |
