(Our GM had a talent for adopting these old modules both to the system and to our game. In our version, we were there because we thought the Lizardmen were allies of a regionally-local dragon we needed to take out. But that's a digression.)<br /><br />Our solution went something like, "These lizardmen are stockpiling weapons, which is a threat to the nearby town. Let's go kill them."<br /><br />Then, once we were halfway through killing them and learned of the fishman invasion, our reaction was, "Oh. Well, you're still stockpiling weapons, which you could use against us at some point. Sure, you say you have a reason other than us, but once the fishmen are beaten off and you have all these weapons, the village looks an attractive target. So you've got to die."<br /><br />Then we went back and re-negotiated terms with the village to kill off the fishmen, too, since they were planning to invade.<br /><br />aka screw moral quandaries: they're not human so they don't count.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06113033843564920306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8267677579874715622.post-39212164098308411842015-02-10T14:23:01.826-08:002015-02-10T14:23:01.826-08:00Discount price weapons?!

(I have dealt with that in foreign countries. I have no idea if I am being ripped off.)<br /><br />We recently played U1 and quasi-U2. The party captured and interrogated the lizardmen on the ship, so they knew the situation before reaching the lizardhome. It was a simple matter of negotiation. The lead fighter (inquisitor) is training the lizardmen to be more effective. There is an awesome picture of a lizardchump who doesn't know how to hold a morningstar; that really set the mood.Darrellnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8267677579874715622.post-19196929569451120862015-01-30T03:04:54.396-08:002015-01-30T03:04:54.396-08:00Hmmm...

The penitential big croc encounter almost finished us.<br /><br />Oh, and hats off for "Say who again?" Very good.ClawCarverhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07236809815213343281noreply@blogger.com
