Rolemaster - Thats Roll Master to You

Well the penultimate session of Rolemaster has been completed, and everything is back on track.

Having met a brutal wall of violence in the previous session they decided to walk away from the Freeport 2nd part and pursue something to amuse themselves. With a cleric losing her faith I had help from a fellow player in getting the party back on track, but in the meantime I still had to deal with getting them finished with Freeport.

I told them that there is a 3rd part, and that Im putting it on hold after the 2nd part to give another GM a shot (L5R 3rd Edition), and will return once that has been finished.

I did give them a break, but with a proviso of which they have no clue about.....................

Rolemaster vs The Party

After having beaten the party up from pillar to post for the last 8 weeks, they are finally approaching 2nd level, and are having second thoughts about entering any form of violent combat for fear of critical hits.

So

Rolemaster 1
The Party 0

I have actually been really mean to them, but given them a break once (when the dice result was too severe), but they have suffered some very severe breaks of their own.

RPG Quote of the Day

If the players don't amuse the GM, then the GM will amuse himself at their expense.
