Speaking of which, has ANYONE ever seen the new Krypto, the Superdog show, guest starring Streaky and this team called the Dogstars? (As well as a shot of Ace the Bathound?)

Definitely geared toward younger audiences, but not nearly as horrible as I had imagined it would be by looking at early promo materials.

Savinien Posted April 29, 2005 Report Share Posted April 29, 2005 Re: Longest Running Thread EVER First session of my 4th Age, Fantasy Hero took place last night. It took longer to get started than I'd hoped. Both players needed at least an hour to finish their characters to a playable level. This put us behind in my timeline of what I wanted to happen. Both players seemed rather reluctant to RP much, too. They barely spoke IC to each other when they met, along the road, or at the first stop at a roadside Inn. I had a small garrison there with off-duty soldiers approaching the soldier character, but no one spoke. Then, when the Innkeeper came to the table looking for gossip... Nothing. It went like that most of the night until the actual trouble started. An ambush. Players haven't totally figured out yet, that it was a planned trap for them. They still think it was simply bandits. The combat went pretty one-sided. I've never GMed Fantasy Hero before and was't sure how to gauge the challenge level. My scripting had the PCs in a fighting retreat into the hills of Emyn Arnen, but they pretty much thrashed my poorly armed and armored bandits. Oh well, back to the drawing board. The players seemed to enjoy the game and perhaps the fight helped bond the characters a bit. Maybe, just maybe, we'll get some dialogue and interaction with NPCs... If there was a call for it, I might right up a prose rendition of the campaign. I have some stuff in the building of the setting up in the Fantasy Hero Forum, thread is called Fourth Age.
