    Don't want to be rude, but is there something we can do to accelerate this process? I feel like we're firmly in the "smoke them out and deal with it" stage, and don't really know how to keep that moving.

    I might be metagaming a bit, but this seems like side stuff. If we leave them, they will injure a few colonists. Or not, because they are scared of larger groups. If we exterminate them and want the island to be save for everyone, we need to kill each and everything on this island. And I feel the more pressing concern is the lost expedition.

    Still, Ramona is pushing for us to remove this threat. So I would all be for an encompassing roll for the whole group, no experience from this combat, and to continue. Because frankly hunting burrowing monsters is not fun.

    This will be handled IC, but I can resolve in large chunks with no problem at all (and your risks are your problem).

    The IC post to trigger this might look something like the following:

    Please resolve automatically until we run out of smoke bags or a battle ends with somebody hurt.

    I think we have to come up with a plan here.

    I think we can either spend the rest of the day trying to take the small ones or try to find the big one and take that out (and leave the little ones to the rest of the colonists).

    I think it would be more productive to take the big one out.

    Sorry I've been silent for a few days. We're in the new house, but have lots of work to do. Hopefully I can catch up tomorrow.

    basically we need a plan of action so we can maybe skip a bit of IC.
    My thought was the following: search for the big ankheg lair, while taking out any small ones that come out along the way, but concentrate on the big one and take that one out.

    I feel that is a good plan, but an ankheg is no joke at our level, doubly so in its own lair.

    We don't have to kill it now, but if we can already locate it, that's a start. And then we can come back with all the soldiers and anyone else who can help and swarm it.

    I agree with farothel. It might actually be more effective this way.

    Looking at Marius' statblock... should not he be in full health after the trip to the ship?

    Maybe? So far I only noted two attacks bringing me down to 3 HP, then Jessica's CLW for 4 HP. Did we heal on the ship? It would increase my chances to live a single hit, but I cannot take two of those bites.

    I'll be on holiday for the next two weeks. I should have WiFi in the hotels and I hope to be able to check in once a day, but I might be a bit slow. Just so you know.

    So, before my next post, I got to ask. Is Hewitt detecting any magic?

    We might just have forgotten to note some down, but I'm not sure we found any (at least I don't remember, but that of course doesn't mean a thing). We had 4 when we landed, but we used some of those already (I know I used 1).

    In the interest of quickly resolving this, I propose the following:

    Everyone but Jessica carries 2. Jessica will have the one given by Ramona, and boatloads of channels per day. Any objections?

    not from me. I've put down 2 CLW on my sheet.

    Actually, I noted down the first 4, but in the private notes at the bottom, so U-B wouldn't have seen those (and I didn't scroll that far down when I checked earlier).

    The humanoid body on which the thing rode is clearly dead and, since it was moving, could be considered un-dead, but you are not sure whether it was a fully autonomous zombie.

    The humanoid corpse was a female human when it was alive.
