I can do a knockback of a creature if anyone wants it closer.

Alright folks, that’s our first checkpoint. The skirmish outside the Delian Tomb has come to an end. This was a great chance to get a feel for the dice mechanics, combat, pacing, and a bit of my GMing style. We also got to learn some of Draw Steel in practice.

From here, we have a choice:

Leave - If you’d like to leave the game here, that’s absolutely fine — thank you so much for joining, and sorry if there were any rough edges along the way. This was my first time running Draw Steel, and I’m grateful for the chance to learn with you.

Onwards - If you’d like to continue, the adventure moves into the Delian Tomb, where we’ll face more goblins, traps, dangerous terrain, and opportunities for your characters to shine. From this point on, both PCs and enemies will begin to gain more abilities and tactical options, making the fights richer and more complex.

Take a moment to decide what’s best for you, individually. No pressure either way.

Onward and upward downward for me! I'd like to try some more of DS and see the full complexity (or as much as one can on pbp).

And a shout out to htech, for this being your first time, imo, you're smashing it.

No way, just got back to a regular schedule. Can't wait to continue.

Onwards. This game is great and you are doing great running it.

Let's go!!!!

I am on team Onwards 100% and I also absolutely echo the others in saying that you are killing it, @htech !

Great! Let's wait for @Furmyr and we can continue.

Sorry I didn't post yesterday. Didn't get through all my games in breaks at work and when I got home a migraine put a stop to anymore computer time.

No problems! I was actually referring to this:

Cool with me! So is this an intro module that comes with the book? It’s interesting the way it gradually rolls out abilities.
It is. The Introductory Adventure is sold separately from the Core Rulebooks and they include those step-by-step, incremental encounters. =)

Welp, based on that cover, looks like we're in for a good time :)

Hey folks! Just a quick heads-up in advance — I’ll be traveling starting next Wednesday for about a week. I won’t have access to a computer, just my phone, so my posts might be shorter or a bit sporadic while I’m away. I’ll do my best to keep things moving, but replies may be slower than usual.

Thanks for your patience!
Just a quick reminder that I am not at home. I won't be able to post today, unfortunately.

7/10 I have been using them sparingly. I fight better winded.
