Ouch...no doubt...sorry I wasnt around to provide an armored wall = between you soft skins and the baddies. Unfortunately I had 3 house = showings right in the middle of smee time...I had better get some offers = for killing my gaming, or I will be a rather unpaladin like individual = this week. Assuming I don't have to show my house next Sunday, I should = be good...however, it will be my last for a month or so as we PCS to = Great Falls. Hopefully this winter will lead to some more regular = gaming for us. Tschuss.

Sure enough the corrupted fleshfiend spawned, and we discovered three things: 1) The Corrupted Fleshfiend is one fricken HUGE skeleton 2) It also hits for 435+ 3) Rangers are not very effective tanks in that situation and only=20 bolstered by a 48 Cleric. In the ensuing confusion, I discovered a few more things: 4) Bards are not very effective tanks in that situation either 5) Fading Memories isn't very effective when the mobs can see invis, and 6) The Corrupted Fleshfiend summons ...so not a very auspicious beginning to the day, particularly after one = more discovery, 7) The Erudin guards don't look kindly on dark elf clerics trying to rez corpses of not-a-tank rangers and not-a-tank bards, 2 each. -- OUCH! Rhysel now has Heartspike (and I might add that it looks EXACTLY like a=20 plank with a bunch of nails hammered through it),=20 -- Gratz Rhys, with that and Ragebringer, you are going totally rock! we did the Jaeil the Wretched turn-in for Gildarr=20 and another FA ranger and then headed up to the undead castle for High=20 Scale Kirn, an FA shaman. So now we've seen that, and I think a full = SMEE=20 could make it to Jaeil no problem for Aidiian and Belador. Getting past = the graveyard to Kirn is somewhat more tricky, but may still be doable. = Gild is now down to about 2-3 more battles, and Rhys theoretically only=20 has Renux and V'ghera. -- I think that SMEE can easily handle Jaeil and Kirn. I have read = several accounts of single groups of mid 50s folks taking on Kirn. If we can do Jaeil for Bel and Aid, it would put both Bel and Gildarr with 2 battles remaining (VSR and the PoS battles) and Aid would only need the Plane of = Sky battle (or MQ). We can knock Renux out for Rhys easily enough, so all = we need to do is get FA genned up to support a run at the General (an easy battle for them). We should make sure we get Renux taken care of for = Rhys before FA has their next Epic night.=20
