So we still on for this on Friday, or are we doing it on Saturday. I was planning on seeing Spiderman this weekend, so I wanted to plan that on the day we don't do this.

That was only The Lords of Evil teasing You. You stand on the Precepice of Victory only to be thrown into the Chasm of Defeat.

That sounds good. I missed seeing Spiderman today, so I'll likely hit it up early tomorrow (as I'm heading off to bed in a bit)

Gerry and I played two games.  The first we were doing pretty good,  had things under control and sealed three gates when Abhoth awoke and ate us rather quickly. 


The second game, I got my ass kicked repeatedly, got wounded, went insane while Arkham was stuck in a snow bank that limited movement.   Hastur awoke rather quick as neither of us closed any gates.  But then the unthinkable happened.  We kicked Hastur's ass and saved the world.

I had 2 unique items. both of which were magic weapons. They gave me a total of +9 to my combat roll. After taking out the minus from Hastur, I was rolling 11 dice each time.

Also, John realized he had calculated hp for the big bad previously, so they actually had less. So there wasn't as much damage to do, and while John's guy went insane, I was able to finally defeat it. Plus, he arrived real, real early. The Terror track was only on two.

Of course in the first game, my character could do nothing to Abhoth, so I died real fast

Lets play some Arkham Horror this Friday the 24th.  All are welcome.   We will use the Innsmouth Expansion, so be prepared for some Deep One invasion.   Hell, be prepared to become a Deep One!

I just go offered some paid rpg work, but it's kind of a rush job, so I need to start on it tomorrow night. Guess I'll have to go insane or die with you all another time

Heads Up. If I leave the office at 5:30 instead of 7:00 and drive back home first to take care of the Beasts I figure I should make it sometime between 8PM and 8:30pm.

Mike, Jimmy and my self  teamed up against Nyarlathotep.   We used both the Dunwich Horror and Innsmouth expansions.   We also used the Lurker in the Threshold Herald.


We were doing pretty good,  but I, despite being a physical ass kicker, kept getting beaten up by monsters do to poor rolling!

The GOO woke up, devouring Mike and Jimmy right away, leaving me to fight alone.  I was kicking ass.   However, I was devoured but Nyarlothotep only had one hit point left!   So close.

The wife and I just played a fun game of Arkham Horror.   We were doing well, and all sorts of interesting cards were played.  We solved two rumors, which is amazing, and had no problems clearning off monsters.  But  El was devoured by the Lurker in the Threshold even though she didn't make a pact with him.
  She drew another investigator and then we fought the great old one, Ghatanhoa.   We fought well, but succumbed to his petrifying gaze.

Yes... Devoured... not fun. 

Odd how there weren't many gates or monsters though. 

What ya going to do though.. When the Creatures of the Deep want out... they get out.

Oni came over and we played a two man game of Arkham Horror.

Jimmy drew Dexter Drake, and I Diana Stanley.   I started off strong, kicking monster ass and closing gates right away, while Jimmy Started off cursed and just having bad luck.

We seemed to have the monsters undercontrol, and I was closing gates, but  then the Doom track laughed at us and filled up while we were eating Roast Pork Buns.

Abhoth rose from his slumber and dissolved us into goo.      We had no chance.

And I consulted with the game makers.  You can only spend clues for skill re rolls.   Losing a curse is not a skill role. Cry

Just finished up.  We played all the board expanisons, Dunwich, Innsmouth and Kingsport.  I thought it was fun.  We had a groove going, and managed to seal six gates, thus winning the game.   Poor Yig didn't have a chance.

One of my favorite games so far, as we all got to do something.     Seems like we beat it just in time, as those damn Deep Ones were one token away from calling up Yig.
