So I need to prepare at least 2 hours worth of gaming over skype, and I'd like to double check I have enough.
Game is a level 1 gestalt, with about 3 or 4 players. One side of the gestalt is a martial initiator. Tiers 1 and 2 are banned for flavour, and tier 5 due to being redundant. The group hasn't gamed together before so some introductions will be required, and ofcourse I'll need to give a quick summary of where they are, what they have etc. Currently about all I've told them is that they're following a bounty.
If any of my player's are reading this, I'd appreciate if you didn't read this spoiler:
I plan to open the game with a fight, just BAM! Like that. So I suppose one enemy might try to make a break for it, if he succeeds that might be a time sink. When looting the bodies, someone will make a proposition to the players, which could cause some discussion.
So, they'll get to the town, ask around and find the badguy and his cronies. They'll probably either go guns blazing and wipe him out, they might try to assasinate him, or they might just follow him out to the woods before attacking.
Next mission, they gotta go to a mining town for a dungeon crawl, and the road will liekly have some bandits blocking their way or something. The crawl is pretty short though.
So what do you think? Will experienced gamers power through this with time to spare, or will they suck their thumbs and diddle themselves/go off tangeant?
