    I like the idea of veoh sleeping in her stew, and as a lantern reaches to take the bowl, another stops him, and points. And we see her lazily lapping up the stew in her sleep.

    Incredible episode! Monty’s laugh during the battle sent a chill up my spine. I almost felt I had to roll for contamination. And the aftermath and plans going forward left off with a political cliffhanger of sorts.
    Enjoy your well-earned break. Congrats on finishing kickstarter #2, and congrats again on the Ph.D. to Dr. Monty. I am looking forward eagerly to the return in 3 weeks.

      That was the most malevolent laugh of the entire Drakkenheim series!!! There were some solid aftershock chuckles shortly after too! Hard to tell where Monty was revelling in the spectacular moment and where he was roleplaying the NPC?!?

    Loved the session, my party is going through Drakkenheim and loving it. Quick note though at 29:10 and I'm sure the twitch chat screamed about this, but Kelly did in fact drink a Potion on Invulnerability so he should've had resistance to all damage for the remainder of thet fight. Might be best to jot these things down so they aren't forgotten in between sessions :)

    • @phillipblindenbach6978
      @phillipblindenbach6978 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      This was the most epic battle of the entire series! Monty has dialed his actors so tight that their normal attention to detail was shattered! Having put years into a character that has been shared publicly must put potential death on to a whole other plane??? The Call of Cthulu influence on the context of Drakkenheim cranks up the spooky/disturbing factor for the party. Hard to play a meta game when your DM has added in unknown delirium/contamination factors! Even Kelly had forgotten that vicious L.9 Wall of Contamination spell (with a classic “Why did I create that?!? head shake)!

It sounds melodramatic to me to acknowledge the solace this series gives me.

    I'm so glad Veo survived!!! I don't want them to die, but it would be very interesting to see what happens if one of them does (not counting the scroll of Resurrection).
    Now, I feel like this season is going to be a looong one. There are so many plot points floating around that I've lost count already. I want to know what happens to the elf dude (can't remember his name) and I've been dying to see the coronation. Ever since I read the book I've wanted to see how it goes for them.
    On the other hand, I'll be sad if they actually kill Lucretia. She's a very cool character, but her "path" doesn't align with any of the characters, even if I feel like the Matriarch is eviiiiill lol. The same goes for the QoT: she's getting way too powerful and no one has taken the time to tell the world she's Katarina von Kessel. That could mess her up real bad.

    Every time I think I see a way forward I can think of ways Monty can throw a wrench in the machine. I think it's finally getting to the point where they're gonna have to start picking sides and making morally grey choices.
    After the meeting in the chapel from the first campaign I think Monty's made it pretty clear that all the factions won't come together and be bffs over a cup of tea. Even though logically they should when it comes to destroying delerium - minus the Followers of The Falling Fire.

      @@briancox3526 100%! I can see where jumping back & forth between characters while splitting up the threesomes has strained the players ability to track their belongings & consider who is carrying what when they travel separately. This came up in previous episodes with the “who has the bags of holding?” comments.
      Some amazing role play in a diabolically dynamic campaign setting - I find myself emotional caught up in the action and intrigue - even harder for Kelly, Jill & Joe to do so?!? The players have also come to rely on Dr. Monty to remember important details for them, but not adjusted to the audible comments (highly appropriate) that the DM is not responsible for tracking such details.

      I think it causes immediate exhaustion to match that levels of contamination they purge. They are rarely in high pressure situations where their contamination is more detrimental to their survival than equal levels of exhaustion, and when they are not in high stress situations they have access to other means of purging contamination that doesn't cost consumable resources.

    Confession (as an armchair party member):
    FLAG = Discussing big picture plans concerning the epic concerns threatening the fate of Drakkenheim while not committing resources to ensuring they are taking with the actual person (or confirming they are not under remote control) and protected from all the groups that have them under constant scrying?!? Sharing their plans with their enemies or abandoned allies (NB: how many times do they need to hear from Falling Fire/Silver Order followers that they have been ‘for-seen at a place’ before they arrive?) keeps the campaign dynamic, while thwarting the parties hopes to ever ‘be 1 step ahead’.
    This campaign is SO COMPLEX!!! I can see that there is so much to keep track of and love how the party (playing dual characters nonetheless) and Dr. Monty find themselves swept up in the moment (Jill = the meticulous detail tracker -> unsure of her Aqua Expurgo consumption) but we all know that minor mentions/events (i.e., the rat Prince) can turn into major scenarios. My largest concern is that the Falling Fire have constructed a massive standing army while being virtually ignored by all the major players and the Drakken Force/Dust Warden combo?!?

      Martial classes need a feature like Cleave as 3rd or 3.5 editions of dnd allow them to do what they know best, that is damage to the enemies in the battlefield. If we compare spellcasters to martial classes, spellcasters are excellent to aoe spells (web, sleet storm, Fireball) and sustain (feblemind). Martial classes have a crowd control and sustain in battlefield, only when they can do what they do best, keep attacking and damaging enemies in battlefield, consider this like this, martial classes because of the high constitution and armor class they are taking agro of the monsters towards them while spellcasters debuffing the monster getting weaker to the attack of martials, also in a party with good teamwork, the damage that a martial class can do with the buffs of a spellcaster in addition of the martial class has the cleave feat is TRIPLED compared to any damage a single spellcaster can do with buffing himself. I don't think that we solve the damage problem by nurfing classes. We solve a problem through teamwork. As a DM I had a party that my players to character creation, that spellcasters 3 of them) choose their spells in such a way that the 4 martials has not only buffs to their attacks, not only the spellcasters cast a web to mobs and trapped them inside but the martials has healing from cleric and a druid while the paladin, the battlemaster and the barbarian do what they are excellent to do, damage enemies with TONS of damage, while the wizard SCRYING to certain events making the team get prepared for the battle in such a way that when the battle comes my players would have fun battling a Lich and giving him a trouble to fight (I liked that from my players back then) they made choices that all the characters feel the gaps that a player might leave open by spell choices to positioning themselves to battlefield. Teamwork is solution to any problem.
