I concur with Dennis here. If you are captured in a game that uses
military TUs, the captured TUs are also military.
Be sure to tell Col. Hogan we sent you. ;)
Later,

=====================
Those games that have capture options that are military games would
have those captured TUs qualify for use with Military TUs.
That has been my intent in these games.
P. Dennis Waltman
Plots Coordinator - Gran March Triad
The scenario in question is still in play, so you may want to avoid
posting spoilers to the list. The decision is up to the Triad and I
imagine that they may want Ed Podsiad's input as the military metaorg
contact, but as one of the authors, I would suggest that since the
scenario is a military scenario, any TUs directly associated with
scenario play should count as military TU. Obviously, any TUs spent in
magic item creation or other side pursuits would not be military, but I
think that all TUs spent as part of playing a scenario should be subject
to the same rules unless stated otherwise in the AR.

And What Good is Love?
by Sean Hillman
Victor walks purposefully through the camp barely acknowledging anyone
he passes. Those who know him can tell there is a deep rage beneath
the surface that threatens to emerge if toyed with, and so his people
stay out of his way, allowing the rage to subside. If there were any
color to be seen his cheeks it would be a fiery golden red. Here on
the Plane of Shadow however, the tenseness of a cheek tells more about
mood than its color.
Llewddor stands waiting for his liege to approach. Beside him stand
three battered Tymestl, their hands tied to a post behind their
backs.. For once, the lieutenant is glad he has abstained from any
drinking this day. His jug is empty in any case and he would need to
see the brewmaster before it could be filled again. As Victor
approaches, Llewddor stands a little straighter and takes a small step
out in front of the prisoners.
Victor stops just short of the prisoners, his eyes locked on their
bruises. "Are these the ones?"
"Yes," Llewddor answers quietly. He steps to the side so Victor can
get an unobstructed view. The three shadar-kai had been captured and
their wounds healed to the point of no longer threatening their lives.
However, each now sports bruises on their skin and small welts that
look like a rash.
"Tell me what you told my sister and on my pledge, you will be
released." Victor looks straight at the Tymestl as he speaks. In
response, two of them spit at him. Neither he nor Llewddor make a move
to retaliate. Finally, the third shadar-kai nods his head.
"I will tell you, as much good as it will do." The creature is missing
its right ear. Looped into the crude stitches that hold the wound
together are three metal circles.
"You are a member of the Il'Korath?" Victor asks.
The creature smiles and nods. "I am. I am the one who told your sister
of the ruby-eyed stranger in our camps. The one who told us about the
Brightlings and their tactics."
"There now you have it. Give us death and be done with it." The pale
prisoner finishes, its malevolent stare meeting Victor's unafraid.
Victor shakes his head. "I promised you life." He motions for a few
nearby guards to watch the prisoners as he moves off with Llewddor.
After moving to where they cannot be heard, Victor speaks.
"Have the certhori erase the memory of their time here. Then take
them from here and release them as I promised."
Llewddor frowns. "The Bone Druids are demanding more sacrifices."
Victor shakes his head. "Nerull has had his fill for now. Release them
and make sure our friends are prepared for their journey home."
Llewddor stands there for a moment, seemingly on the verge of asking
another question. At the last moment he decides against it and walks
off to fulfill Victor's orders.
Victor takes a deep breath and heads back into the camp himself.
Before he is ready he stands outside his sister's tent. Hesitating
for only an instant, Victor pushes past the flap and into the tent.
Kneeling on the ground is Sierra, packing away a gauntlet of black
metal. She looks up as he enters. Unconsciously her left hand begins
massaging her right. On her hand Victor notices a rash similar to
what he saw on the shadar-kai.
"What insanity would cause you to inflict pain on yourself just to
inflict pain on them? And since when did torture become a part of your
strategy?" Victor's voice is under control but Sierra can sense the
rage he is holding back.
As she stands, Sierra raises an eyebrow. "I gave everything in the
war: my honor; my dignity; my pride. And I learned that you cannot
afford to hesitate and question the morality of every single act. It's
what you have to do when you rule., I learned as well that punching
someone in the face repeatedly has a cathartic affect on both the
giver and the receiver. ."
Suddenly Victor's anger is gone, replaced by a deep sadness. "Is there
no love left in you? It's as powerful a healer as any potion. Let it
flow through you once again sister."
Sierra smiles, but it is bitter and there is no happiness behind it.
"And what good is love? Love did not save us. Love is not going to win
this war. Love only makes the bitter moments more bitter for the brief
taste of paradise it provides." She stands solidly for a moment, face
somber and hard when, suddenly, tears begin to flood down her face.
She reaches out to her brother, pulling his forehead down to hers
weeping softly.
"Oh Victor, I needed your words sixteen years ago when the world was
crumbling. I could have rebuilt my life on those ideas. Instead the
bricks have been laid with the sour mortar of hatred and I fear it is
too late, for it has already set."
One hand reaches up and gently dries her tears. "It is not too late.
You will see." Gently the hand lifts her chin to meet Victor's firm
gaze. "No more tortures."
Sierra blinks once, trying to staunch her tears, and then nods her
agreement. "This is your war," she says,. " "We will fight it as you
wish." ."
Not being familiar with the module, I would say it comes down to a
simple (ok, not really) question of, is the Gran March Army more like
the British or American army of WW2?
Basically, if you were captured by the Germans (Japanese, Italians), the
American Army continued to pay you while you were captured (obviously
not delivering the actual pay) while the British Army did not. Which is
one of the main reasons there were a lot more British soldiers 'going
over the wire'.

A few of us are coming down from Nashville for EconoCon and splitting
a king room three ways. The other two guys have air matresses, and I
sleep on the floor.
We're looking for one-or-two more people who are more interested in
economy than comfort. The whole weekend (three nights) would be a
little less than $75 if we have one more person, and $60 if we had two
more people.
We would also be interested in dropping our reservation, and going in
on a double if anyone has one already.
e-Mail me directly if you are interested: michaeljameslee at gmail dot

EconoCon 2007 - March 23 - 25, 2007 - Atlanta, GA
Folks,
Here's the latest about EconoCon.
1. If you haven't registered, you should do so today or tomorrow.
Otherwise, a table that you want to play could disband due to lack of
players. Registration will stay open for another week or so, however.
http://www.warhorn.net/econocon2007/
2. Hotel rooms - if you haven't booked yours, you should do so today.
The hotel is going to release the rooms on February 26th. That's
today. After that, the room price goes up.
Ask for the ECONOCON block.
3450 Venture Parkway
Duluth, GA 30096
770.622.7277
http://www.wingateinnduluth.com/hotelhome/
3. I'm going to disband tables that aren't going to make on February
28th. I will send an email at that point in time letting you know
I've done so. You will need to check your schedule and see if your
table did not make, and sign up for new tables. That goes for judges,
also.
4. I still have over thirty five tables without judges. Probably a
third of those are for tables that don't look like they're going to
make. However, if you can judge even one slot for me, I would be very
grateful. Please look over your schedule again and see if you can
judge just a little bit. Let me know if you need refunds because
you've decided to judge. Judges will get cool books, minis, and dice
- as well as con registration. Remember that it's imperative that you
step up to either run tables or run concessions. Without volunteers
these cons don't happen.
5. Announcements about slot zeros this weekend will be sent to people
that have registered for the con.

Mahoning Valley Convention 2007
Date: April 13th-15th, 2007
Where: Holiday Inn Hotel & Convention Center
Boardman, OH
http://www.ichotelsgroup.com/h/d/hi/1/en/hotel/YNGSO/welcome
Convention Website: http://www.consupport.com <http://www.consupport.com/>
So yes I am insane, or people dug up nasty things about me and
coerced me into doing it again (all the excuses I am making as to why I am
doing this again). MVC is back gang. Big and bad as ever. You want your
Veluna and Kalamar fix we are your one stop Midwest stop. Eight slot over 3
days to fulfill your LG and LK gaming needs.
This year we have 8 Premiere Events (2 new Veluna regional
premieres, 3 VTF meta-regional events, 2 Living Kalamar events, and a one
time only Veluna Battle Interactive written by yours truly). So right there
alone is the entire show taken up with brand spanking new events. Add to
that the battle interactive (and when has MVC let you down when it comes to
special events) and you just cannot miss the show (and if you do I know
where you live). Sprinkled throughout the show will also be some 2nd run LK
events (from DDXP) as well as year 6 Veluna regionals, midnight madness
slots, and our charity auction. Living Greyhawk Campaign staff and Living
Kalamar staff will be onsite running events and answering questions (correct
answers costs extra of course).
$40 covers the pre-reg for the entire show. We only accept full show
pre-regs at this time and we will SELL OUT (we have every year we run it).
Judge 4 slots and get into the show for free. Drawings every slot for extra
judge swag as well.
So mark it on your calendar and plan to attend. Pre-reg for judges and
players should be open shortly after DDXP. Consupport will be our convention
website so the same process you used to play at this show will work for MVC
as well. Don't delay unless you want to end up playing Happy Happy Fun Kitty
card games at home with your neighbor while your friends have fun at the
show.

MARK YOUR CALENDARS!
The Principality of Ulek has been so generous for hosting the Gran
March - Principality of Ulek border con for several years. This year,
the good citizens of Gran March would like to return the favor.
Marching 2 the POU is going to be held on the Georgia side of the
border, just north of Tallahassee in Thomasville, GA. We're going to
have dozens of tables of great POU and GRM mods (including the entire
year six rotation for both regions).
Convention Coordinators: Paige Leitman and Michael Jones (Senior GM)
Convention Administrator: Scott Vandenberg
Maximum registration for this convention is 90 people.
You are encouraged to sign up ASAP after registration opens.
Preliminary slots are posted, but they are subject to change depending
on the availability of the year seven mods for the Principality of
Ulek and Gran March.
Here are the preliminary slots and scenarios:
http://www.warhorn.net/marching2thepou/schedule/grid.php
Special Interactive
There is going to be a special Sheldomar Valley Metaregional access
interactive premiere dealing with the Reclamation of the Disputed
Territories in the PoU. This is a great way for the citizens of the
Principality to strike back at the forces occupying the Disputed
Territories, and a great way for Gran March Military personel to
become personally involved in the fight to free this war-torn land.
Location
The gaming location is going to be the Red Hills Room at the Quality
Inn and Suites Conference Center in Thomasville, GA. Thomasville is
just north of Tallahassee, but inside the Georgia border. If you've
driven to Tallahassee from Gran March, you've probably driven through
Thomasville. If you've driven to Tallahassee from the POU, then
Thomasville is just another 40 miles north.
The block of hotel rooms reserved for the con is just down the street
in the Comfort Inn. We have 20 double non-smoking rooms reserved.
Ask for the "Greyhawk" rate of $72 per night. There is plenty of
convienient food in the area - from Chick-Fil-A to Ruby Tuesday's and
everything in between.
GMs and Volunteers
GMs and up to two volunteers per slot are needed for this con. If you
GM, you get neat con swag that includes WotC books, dice, minis, and
other neat stuff. GMs and volunteers get to play one slot free for
every slot they run. GMs who run six (6) slots will be housed (for
free) with a maximum of three other judges for Thursday night, Friday
night, and Saturday night.
Cancellation Policy
You will have to pay for your slots before you sign up for games. No
refunds will be given for people who cancel, withdraw, or fail to show
up at the con after registration closes. Registration will close
approximately two weeks before the convention begins.
Walk-up Policy
The convention coordinators do not guarantee walk-ups or people who
register after registration is closed the opportunity to play.
Registration will close approximately two weeks before the con. If
there are open seats, they will preferentially go to preregistered
players first. Preregistration is strongly encouraged for this
convention.
Mustering Policy
This con will have premustered tables. If you or your group have a
particular request of who you want to play with contact Scott at
dintaur at yahoo dot com. Mustered tables will be posted approximately
one week before convention begins.
Midnight Madness
There will be no midnight madness formally offered at this con.
However, if you want to judge or play midnight madness, you may do so
in your hotel rooms or whatever other space you can get. Your con
coordinators ask that you only run Sheldomar Valley Metaregional and
Core mods for midnight madness, as we are not offering any of these
mods on our schedule. Signup sheets will be provided. You are
responsible for ordering and reporting your own MM mods. If you're
coming in from out of town, you may want to try to arrange MM on the
Marching 2 the PoU Yahoo! Group —
http://games.groups.yahoo.com/group/marching2/
REGISTRATION IS NOT OPEN YET BUT MARK YOUR CALENDARS!
REGISTRATION WILL START IN LATE APRIL!
You may have missed this in the Dispel Confusions, but skill bonuses
for the same skill but from different meta-orgs don't stack.
==================================
Q: I have bonuses from multiple metaorgs to the same skills. Do these
bonuses stack?
A: As Circumstance bonuses (all metaorg skill bonuses are Circumstance
bonuses), they will only stack if they result from different
circumstances. While there could be endless debate about the exact
circumstance that elicits a particular metaorg benefit, they are
essentially all bonuses derived from the circumstance of being a member
of a metaorganization and, hence, do not stack. Allowing otherwise
would create immeasurable headaches for both GMs and metaorganization
coordinators and lead to abuse of the system.
==================================
Dennis Waltman
Yes I agree with you that the spell, taken from the PHB, can be
interpreted in that fashion.
But don't you think what is said in the FAQ takes precedence over what
can also be interpreted as "poor writing skills"?
If you actually read the FAQ, you can see what the intent is (no less
than 1 hp, regardless of saving throw), which should then help you
decide which interpretation of the PHB to use.
After all, if there weren't multiple interpretations, then we wouldn't
be having this coversation to begin with.

Subject: [GranMarch] Re: Question on Harm
If we are to interprit spells literally, this is how it reads:
Harm:
Harm charges a subject with negative energy that deals 10 point
of damage per caster level (to a maximum of 150 points at 15th
level).
This is how much damage the spell can deal if a save is failed.
If a creature successfully saves, harm deals half this amount,
but it
cannot reduce the target's hit point's to less than 1.
The second statement listed above outlines what will happen if a
save is failed. Meaning if I have 40 HPs and have the will
(rolled
my save) to resist the full effects of the spell it can't kill
me,
but it still stings.
I fear that people are trying to carry over the 3.0 Harm which
reduced you to 1d4 hit points, thus reading what they want to
see in
the spell and not what is written. Also, I believe that people
do
not like the idea that harm kills simply because PCs do not use
it
regularly and NPCs do. IMHO the statement "cannot reduce it
below
one even if the save is failed," makes fighters feel better if
standing toe to toe with a negative energy cleric. This simply
increases the survivability of PCs. After all, this statement
reduces the 6th lvl necromantic spell to one that can't kill a
fly,
even with a 1 on the D20 save!

Actually, the FAQ for Harm and the Death from Massive Damage rule does
everything but come right out and say that Harm cannot kill, and that
the "not less than 1" statement applies to both successful or failed
saving throws.
"The harm spell deals 10 points of damage per caster level (to a maximum
of 150 points at 15th level) and cannot take a target's hit points to
less than 1. If the target
creature makes a successful saving throw, the damage is reduced by half,
but the spell still cannot reduce the target's hit points to less than
1..."
This is the first part of the question on Death from Massive Damage and
Harm, and the answer does nothing to refute this statement.

Well to be honest the way you phrased your email it made it
kinda hard to understand it. But harm is very clear..... Spell goes off
and subject makes a saving throw. If they fail you deal 10 point per cl
(max 150) period, dropping below 0 or -10 (if healer present) then
creature is dead. IF they make their save it has two clauses; one it
deals 1/2 damage and two it cannot drop them below 1 if it would still
do enough damage to drop them below that. I.e a goblin saving (nat 20?)
and only having 4 hp..... he is now at 1.

Subject: [GranMarch] Question on Harm
If you read the spell (which I will copy here verbatum)it looks
like harm can kill, however, IF the subj succeeds the save it cannot
reduce it below 1. They way this reads harm can kill. Meaning the less
than 1 statement is in the SAME sentence as the statement about what
happens when the subject saves. Can I get a weigh in on this,
specifically from the triad?
Harm:
Harm charges a subject with negative energy that deals 10 point
of damage per caster level (to a maximum of 150 points at 15th level).
If a creature successfully saves, harm deals half this amount, but it
cannot reduce the target's hit point's to less than 1.

I like the medical applications. Patient safety tracking, infectious
disease surveilance, and help meeting JCAHO standards-- you know,
that's the kind of stuff you really NEED somebody like Vecna to
figure out. I'll have to suggest it at our next office meeting...

Wow.

Or "send your EconoCon registration fees by paypal to me at vecna dot com"?
Wow.

The actual text is "Sheldomar Valley metaregional module", so you would
be correct Dave.
This is different than a regional module from the Sheldomar Valley
metaregion.
