Games are on Monday night sometime after 5:30PM at World's Best Comics,
9714 Warwick Blvd Newport News, Virginia 23601.
Apparently the Meat-Lover's pizza selection without the pepperoni and
adding the philly-cheesesteak meat has become the party's standard.
Next time I may add extra cheese.
++++ START OF SESSION ++++
Due to external factors, we had a minimal quorum but moved on.
Working on "actionable intelligence" obtained from the Slobgoblin
leader the party had a choice of going directly after the dungeon
leadership or picking off the inhabitants one room at a time. They
chose the latter and started with the ghouls in the crypt. This made
the progress rather slow but easy.
First stop was the Ghouls in the crypt. Easy pickins, ho hum. It led
to their burrow in the back of the crypt where Jacko found some
accumulated treasure of about 800 silver pieces.
Second, Jacko decided to follow the obvious trail of gold coin crumbs
spaced evenly every ten feet further down the burrow until he found the
baby three headed Hydra. Since his computed statistics showed he was
faster he made a tactical decision and ran back the way he came,
ducking into a side space as it came out into the main crypt hall where
the party was. He stabbed it in the back as it passed while the party
dealt with it although Jacko's strike was the death blow.
Third, the party followed the hall and turned down to the pool where
their intelligence source said there was a Giant Predacious Diving
Beetle. Adopting a habitual pattern of attack, they simply had Elefus
lob a fireball into the pool room to parbroil it. While, damaged it
simply retreated to the deep end (and escape route) to wait it out.
Lastly they went to where the Slobgoblin said there where Bugbear
trainees awaiting marching orders. Again they had Elefus lob another
fireball into the enclosed space where they picked them off as they
came out.
++++ OUT OF CHEESE ERROR ++++
P.S. Jacko was voted MVP and raised up to 3rd Level Infiltrator,
(Creep).

Did I miss something about Slobgoblins? Is that like hobgoblins only
the opposite? Instead of being militaristic they're slobby pushovers?

Slobgoblins look like Goblins, except they are covered in a truly extraordinary amount of filth.
