Sweet, we should try that. Coordinated intimidate! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/laugh.gif Even demons run from us!

Trouble being that it needs three Intimidate monkeys to pull off - good, solid Intimidate Monkey's - as the opposed check quickly heads up as the opponents go up in level:
"1d20 + character level or Hit Dice + target’s Wisdom bonus [if any] + target’s modifiers on saves against fear" - Hit dice increase base saves (and thus are effectively counted 1.333... to 1.5 times) and Wisdom adds to saves (and thus is counted twice). A CR 1 Heavy Horse has 3 HD, a +4 Will save, and a +1 Wisdom Bonus - and is thus running at 1d20+8. A CR 5 Dire Lion has 8 HD, a +7 Will save, and a +1 Wisdom Bonus - and is thus running at 1d20+16; a CR 10 Young Adult Brass Dragon has 16 HD, +12 Will save, and a +2 Wisdom modifier - and thus is running at 1d20+30 (math may be off due to differences on the fact that it's a fear-based will save, rather than a striaght will save). How high do you think you can get three characters to coax their Intimidate modifiers? And even then, there are quite a few critters that are simply immune to fear - completely - and will be unaffected by Intimidate. If everyone has focused on Intimidate....

Is 10 AM good for you people, or do you want to have the game at noon again? This is in your time, by the way.

Went to bed rather late last night. I'd rather have it at 2.

Back to bed for me.

I just got up about 15 minutes ago (11 am, my time) - so 10 am my time is definately out.

I did, however, leave my schedualed tasks alone, so the server is currently set to turn itself on at about 11:30, so I can check it and make sure it's working by noon (as last weeks session)

Not sure what time we will actually start, however.

What about noon like usual? O.o Please?

Works for me - don't know about Narf, however. Well, I sort of do - he'll probably be sleeping until 1 pm or 2 like he mentioned.

Meh. I wish he'd wake up already...
