Bored bored bored. Hell, none of the 10- calls I've had today so far have lasted more than two minutes overall. But, I did whip up some NPCs for my game tonight (note to![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
razorsedge74: can't tell you how the game went. Hasn't happened yet), which I hope will give my players a run for their money as well as some action as I close the first story arc. Then, next month, we switch back to Eric's Champions Game, which allows my own batteries some serious recharge time.
But, RL gamers are...well, stupid, tricky little creatures. Take the Saturday game I'm in: There's 7 of us, now that one player has left due to Gamer Drama that I mentioned a few weeks back. We're up against a fort that has easily 1,000 enemies, including Giants, Beholders, and Grife only knows what else. We're 16th level-ish, at our highest level PCs, and some of the players think we, the 7 of us, can take the fort. I've been e-mailing IC, saying 'Guys, we need an army to fight an army. It's not some orc band: they're organized, well-equipped, elite forces, and we've only struck blows against their vanguard and almost got our asses handed to us.' I get a response from one saying 'I understand what you're saying, I really do. However...*insert lots of high-falutin' bullshit here*.' I'm ready to go to the GM and speak up: If another player had suggested this, it would be taken seriously. Fix the players, or I will. So, how to not die next game, there's the problem.
