Nice session! Just to point out something. Unless you're houseruling, you can't use a shield with a torch. You need a lamp, and then need to spend an action to put the lamp on the ground and use your shield.
I usually houserule that you can do this with torches as well, otherwise it can take a long time to make use of shields and two-handed weapons, making some builds a little less fun.
You’re right, of course. I won’t pretend it was an (unmentioned) house rule when the truth is I forgot lol. But I think I'll house-rule it because, frankly, my build won’t work as well without a shield!
I think you’ve convinced me to buy this soon! Everything about it screams “you’ll love this!” Silas had quite the run, and I look forward to the next entry.
I love this game! That was a lot of fun to read, I'm enjoying the way you write and describe everything. Looking forward to your next installment!
Great first gameplay session!
I'd say it's going very well for you so far! And that sketch was fantastic, it reminded me of Only Fools and Horses...
Yes, it’s very much in the same tradition of 70s/80s British comedy!

Grrr…so many rules in this game 🤯
This was a great read! Thanks for sharing.
Thank you, Joe

I haven't really played any 'crunchier' games solo but this looks fun, I've added it to my ever growing 'to-play' list!
Seems like Silas got a little bit lucky with those dice rolls, hopefully his luck will hold...
Also what were all those fork handles doing on the altar to the unknown goddess? 😆
