But also a set up for a Colville Screw.

jfarrar19 Ah yes the patent pending Colville Screw, what a masterpiece!

@@jfarrar19 We haven't yet seen a Colville Screw where the party sends SOMEONE ELSE to go gather up all the monsters to fight them all at once.

Rob Jacobs I really like this idea! Stealing...

@@madsam7582: While that's generally true, there are *physical* limitations to how much work muscles can do, how much adrenaline the body can handle, etc.

Kissing Buts is not the way to get promoted in the Chain... Or is it?

The question is though, will he always have been back soon? [suprisingly difficult composition to build there]

He's totally a fan favourite. BLIMEY!

I am so sad!

I know this is super late but they do a podcast version on most podcast sources. I usually listen to those at work and have the KZfaq video on my tablet in the kitchen.

It was giffed before the episode even ended ;) gph.is/g/E00kL5p

That a quote from something?

The saying "Idle hands are the Devil's playthings." Is an old Catholic admonishment to work hard roughly meaning "Too much leisure Leeds to sin."

Blimey!

Bloody ‘ell!

I think he just forgot about the darkness...it can happen...

I mean, I can tie a knot with my eyes closed I think. I tie my laces without looking all the time.

Maybe the golem has one of those fabled bucklers!

@@Lotloxa wouldn't need a 'buckler'. a large portion of full Shields were strapped on, not handheld.

The cast sang it a few times in the Vallenguard episodes :)

It's homebrew Matt Colville cooked up. Not from any book, official or otherwise.

I think its volos. Vampiric mist

James Smith Mordenkainen’s Tome of Foes, not Volo’s

Josh Leap Blimey.

They are playing dungeons and dragons.

Really? I thought it was paranoia!

Copper is best boy! Best Ranger! Best cat daddy!!!

As long as you hit with it, it can be recovered

Im pretty sure that most enchanted arrows can be recovered as long as they do still exist The Javelin for example was lost in the beginning cause they left it in the Buttcrack of a superior demon

The xorn were in the caves outside ringwell. As for the first. I'm not an engineer so I dont know the load capacity of 3feet of sandstone. Perhaps the room below being much smaller gave it stability. Perhaps its strengthened by the magic of ringwell.

Mal-2 KSC On (2) - I believe the place they fought the Xorn was outside of Ringwell proper, and may not have had any rooms directly beneath it.

Thanks. It still seems a little dicey if a three foot sandstone floor is enough to deal with iron golem stomping, but at least the xorn bit makes sense. I always try bribing the xorn, after finding out they like copper as much as any other precious metal. Instead of cashing up all that copper at the end of a dungeon crawl, I keep it for xorn bait (in parcels, in a Haversack).

@@mal2ksc sandstone..... Granite would have been better.

Not true. Great swords were only 5-8 pounds.

@Bundle of Sticks No issue, as long as everybody turns evil. It starts with Boots.

it's not good to be that inflexible. he did that to add tension and make the game more interesting. there's nothing wrong with that.

@@matthewhack6510 Rly? He might easily kill that character. In fact that exactly what happened. Do you think it was funny expierence for a player? And this outcome was fairly predictable. What chance did Boots have? Injured and isolated against enemy that was challenge for whole team? He was dead before he was even able to react. Thats just bad DMing in my opinion.

@@pavelhranicky8291 not everything has to be justified by mechanics, and it's a fine experience for a player. when everything is by the book it gets predictable, stale, and boring. it made the other players think outside the box to save him, which they did. keeping the players on their toes is not bad dm'ing. all he did was change the conditions of the test. if you watch matt's videos, a big part of his style is letting the player's plans work /sort of/. so yeah, they dropped the iron golem to the next floor and avoided a tough encounter, buuuut boots went with it. if he hadn't done that, there would be no tension left in the encounter.

@@matthewhack6510 WHat? Look dude, if you think, that it is funny experience, when DM screw your character with some wild impro, than we really have no common ground here. There are many other ways how to keep game entertaining and intense without "punishing" players for clever tactics. There was absolutely no need for this. Why trying to force intensity into encounter, when players outsmart you? And it was really obvious, that Matt is just trying to add some "juice" into game by "sacrifacing" one character. Im really no fan of this. If you are...enjoy.

Pavel Hranický Notice how Umlaut Tom didn’t whine like a pampered snowflake, bud? That’s not a special character ability, it’s a choice of character that we all have the ability to make. Hang in there, petunia.
