This week\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s game included our heroic rescue of Thomas from the gallows. After much planning, calculating, and pounding the cobblestones for information, we came up with a daring plan. With the help of an informant with connections we were able to get Buck on as a guard for the wagon bringing Thomas from the prison to the gallows. Next, Nicholas was stationed near the gallows and would cause a distraction (and hopefully a human stampede) by tossing coins onto the street in front of the prison wagon. In the confusion Duncan and Desmond would help Buck free Thomas. A secondary target would be to recover Thomas\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s beloved rifle from the guards. We were hoping to reroute the wagon by burning a house down but that failed miserably. But the smoke did help to conceal us rather well.<\/p>\n
Buck started us out by immediately rolling a critical failure. Things went better after that though with Buck killing guards and jumping all around on the prison wagon. Thomas, still caged in the wagon, repeatedly had to be told that there were no windows on the roof. He kept trying to grab a fallen guard\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s weapon that lay on the roof. Desmond was no help at all, while Duncan took on the main enemy rival\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6because he was carrying Thomas\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s gun. That went better than expected for Desmond, whose motto is \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Poor planning. Great dice rolls\u00e2\u20ac\u009d. That is until he followed the escaping rival and got surrounded by guards. Desmond was sorely wounded and it was only with the help of Buck (who took three wounds in the process) and Thomas (who somehow remained unscathed this game) that he survived at all.<\/p>\n
Nicholas did toss his coins on schedule and then ran away. He said something about getting help, but we\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re not so sure about that.<\/p>\n
Oh, and Buck killed a servant in cold blood.<\/p>\n
\u00c2\u00a0In the end, we did escape. Nicholas was able to doctor both Buck and Desmond back to health. Thomas was freed and got his rifle back.<\/p>\n
Last I remember we were sailing into a sunset or something.<\/p>\n
