Dragonsword of Lankhmar

PBeM Game (3/10/2002 - 6/6/2002)


Here's a log of a play-by-e-mail game of Dragonsword of Lankhmar that I played against Andy Sekela. The e-mails have been modified and reordered slightly in order to make them more readable and to remove irrelevant content.

Great! It definitely does look like we may finally be getting a change of pace.

The format does seem different than previous games. It also looks like we don't have to give out our locations, either. There are specific times when you can try to guess my location, so I guess that's half the "fun".

It looks like I go first in our next book. I read "The Adventure Begins", so it's your move.

Well, you don't really need to put the Location: thing down at all, because it will always be unknown unless I ask you.

Speaking of which, which of the three areas are you in? I need to guess your exact location.

Stop the presses!! As I was about to deal a killing blow to some White Warriors, I rolled a Special result. This sent me running, and I am now on my way to Countess Kronia's estate. You must immediately abandon any encounter and turn to page 62 (hope that's the right page #!) in your book.

Okay, I've read page 62. It tells me to pick a location and see if you're there, and if you're not to read on with the text at that location. Since I've read page 62, I guess that makes it your turn now. After that, though, I'm moving to the Entertainment Area, so let me know if you're there!

We may have an ambiguity in timing here. I am outside the entrance to the estate, and haven't chosen a location yet. So do I need to pick a location and carry that out first, and then you get to see if I'm there?

Sorry it took me a little while to respond. I assume you want to use the same format as last time.

1. Fafhrd, attacks: hit! 8 damage
2. Gray Mouser, attacks: hit! hit! 11 damage and 9 damage, respectively.

Lucky for me, a very successful round!

Your turn.

Sounds good. Alright, you've killed my friend, The Guardian, outright! But I do have a counterstrike left up my sleeve:

1. Renango: Two throwing daggers (automatic hit): 10 damage
2. Tarana: Miss.

Your turn. I'm doomed! DOOOMED!

I'm not much better off! We're both still standing, but barely!

1. Fafhrd, attacks (he gets 2 per round from now on): hit (2x!!), hit (2x!!) 24 damage per hit; that's 48 total. (Why can't I roll like that all the time, or at least when I really need to?!)
2. Gray Mouser, attacks: miss! miss!

Well, since your characters turn back nearly right away, I suppose mine should too. So this probably ends the combat, and we go back to our usual thing. If this sounds right to you, then it's back to your turn.

I guess option two makes the most sense. Special #1 says that some guards appear and you start fighting them for two turns, and while you're fighting them, I get to attack you. After the two turns, they run off.

So here are my two free attacks:

1. Zandor - Fires wand - hit! 7 damage

That sounds good (actually, I should say it makes sense; it doesn't sound good to me at all!).

In addition to the 2 attacks, I assume the Death Dust still affects me for those 2 turns.

Alania runs away after the first turn. (Something about her getting home to her daddy before she dies, which would make him very upset at my team.)

1. Fafhrd, attacks: special! miss! For the special, you trip a spear trap and take12 damage total.

The dead are restless today. I just killed a Vampiress.

It's your move, but I need to guess your location when you're done.

Actually, that won't be necessary. It looks like you found me! This is the final battle. However, it appears I made a poor choice in the last passage, and lost my chance at the Dragonsword. (Oh, sooooo close!) Now, even if I defeat you the game still ends in a draw.

Oh well... Let me know when you're ready, and I will deliver my first strikes!

How did you do nine damage if you missed me twice?

Anyway, let's see here...

1. Yala -- miss!
2. Alay -- miss!

I would like to save face and say that I have a magic weapon that lets me hit even when I miss, but that's not the case. I just cut and pasted and didn't proofread my work. (It's pretty sad when you can't proofread a few sentences correctly!)

Anyway, here's my next turn:

1. Fafhrd, attacks: miss! miss! NO damage.
2. Gray Mouser, attacks: hit! miss! 9 damage.

OK. I've completed my proofreading and verified the above information is correct.

Your move. Andy

I think that about does it for me. Both of my guys had their weapons enchanted near the beginning of the game. And if they take 30 damage between them, they're both toast!!

Looks like the infamous Thieves' Guild has one a victory. Drats!!

Wahahahaa! Evil is victorious. Of course, you took an awful lot of us with you, ultimately. :)
