I'm still around and would love to return to the game.

As best as I can tell, a wrathspawn is left that can act before Teo and Mandy.

I got a new Toshiba (Android) tablet for Christmas. (Thanks, dad!) One of the things I'd like to do is put my gamebook pdfs on it.

Does anyone know of a good reader app?

I'd like to "turn pages" rather than scroll up and down as the current Adobe app does.

Congrats on the shotgun!

For some reason, that is a class of firearms that does not interest me. I likes me pistol and me rifle.

A joyous Nativity to all!

You can add Teo and Mandy to your actions. Go ahead and roll for me. Teo will attempt to turn the Wrathspawn, starting with the two on him.

Mandy will move up to a flanking position to attack the Wrathspawn that is getting mobbed.

Sorry I've been slow. I've allowed myself to be distracted.

Lord of the Rings LEGOs to come in Summer 2012!

Hoody Hoo! Hip, Hip, Hooray! Hot Diggety Dog! Deo gratias! It's about time!

Need I say more?  

Received an advert from Amazon: the Eastman and Laird Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles will be re-released.

I checked and didn't see anything that triggered on a missed attack on Teo.

Congrats!
By the time the youngest is ready to play will the oldest be ready to run the game?

In terms of age, yes.

Most of my gaimng with the kids has been board games. They've seen some RPG rules, but we haven't played any yet. On that count, I'm delinquent.

By the time the youngest is ready to play, the eldest may be off to college.

Do you people have long boring nights with little to do?

Nope. We have to make time, but it's worth the effort. 

To be fair, we are averaging three years apart. (Our eldest is 12yo.) We don't have 5 under 6 like some folks shoot for.

Congrats - yet more sleepless nights?

How old are the other 4 of your brood, btw?

I have more sleepless nights due to my problems than I have because of the kids. It will be more low-sleep nights, but that generally improves after 6 wks.

The other kids are 12, 10, 6, and 3yo.

My wife has just delivered our fifth child. All went well and mother and baby are fine.

Doing my part to secure the future of gaming.

Sweet! Mandy's leap pays off.

Burn an AD for the to-hit roll on that second attack:
1d4.open(4)+2=5

Should leave me with two(?) AD.
