A Land Far Away

Something odd is happening in the eastern Marches. It is a confederacy strained by political tension, a patchwork of peoples showing ragged threads at the seams. It is a wilderness traditionally savage and now under threat by the most extreme of natural forces -- a volcanic event. It is a land of he...

Regretfully, I have to admit that I'm not getting back in game any time soon. I'm going on a gaming sabbatical to focus on RL for a while. I've asked Curm to not suspend my DM status so that I can hop on if and when possible but I don't know when I'll be able to focus on or schedule anything ALFA-re...

This turned into a more extended ordeal than expected. We are finally back in the house with furniture in place. Still plenty of boxes to unpack. However, with school starting this week, the bad news is that I'll have to cut back my DMing to one session a week, tops. I'll continue to build. I'm goin...

Some encounter locations on the world map lead to problems when NPCs are already in the area. This is true for encounters at the Hawk's Nest and at the Griffon Inn where by the time the screen loads the guards have generally already killed the orcs or what not before the PC gets a chance. Actually ...

Somebody with item experience post here the price and legality of the +4 mighty MW bow and composite bows. Send me an erf thereafter, kid, with those bows and items of +1 stats and I'll get it in.

This feels like playing where you DM. It was never about the possibility of twinking yourself, to me. I confess myself a blinkered straight-arrow who never saw that very obvious potential until it was pointed out. Now that I do, of course, I can't unsee it. And therein lies the rub. For me, it's alw...

The little caravan stop outside gates of Silvy is having an issue of multiplying horses and Argent Legion guys. Presumably old spawns aren't vanishing and new ones keep coming in. On "authority" (possibly lapsed!) of still DM KMJ, I used my PC Bamshogbo to "Turn Animals" to see ...

Soldiers and militia march on the highways, up from the west and down from the east, converging on a field near Rauvenwatch. The tents spring up like mushrooms after a rain and the lights of campfires light the muddy paths of what grows to be a sizable encampment. It is a muster, with troops sent fr...

There are three pelt purchasers on the server. Most people would likely know of Hornhardt, in the Gem, and his game shop.

Hi all. I go on holiday from Friday 8/7 to Tuesday 8/11. For a week to ten days after that, my internet access may be limited to cafe hours while the floors in our house are renovated. Going to have to play any time I can grab to DM as it comes. The campaign will have to enter flexi-time. We may or ...

I'm sorry. I have to cancel today.

Let's shoot for a 10am PST/1pm EST/6pm GMT start tomorrow for Level 1-10 session and 6pm PST/9pm EST start for Levels 10-20.

I leave town on Friday, August 7, and won't be back until August 12, so the August 8 session is cancelled.

Thank you. You have an idea that you are interested in and are pursuing it to see if it will add value. The emotional investment in ALFA that is shown is appreciated.

There is now a ferry between Rivermoot and Silverymoon. Thank you Zelk for the scripts and instanced areas! Eastern caravan next.

My NPCs do their best to give IC warnings. I'll review the dialogue and elevate the verbal klaxons if need be. Next up, a ferry between Silvy and RM and a caravan between Silvy and the East, specifically to address the density issues being raised elsewhere in the forums. Thank you for helping me pri...
