Hi again,

http://www.wizards.com/default.asp?x=lg/region/granmarch&page=2

is where I read about GRM6-02 Family Values as not being a military mod.

Thanks for the info though, I appreciate it. If they're all military
mods, then I don't have to worry about which ones to sign up for. :)

Thanks again,
Travis Reed

Dear Susan,

As of early this week, the Marriott is booked up and not taking anymore
reservations, and the reservations number for them on the D*C website
doesn't work. You'll get a recording that it's no longer in service.

The Hyatt still had rooms, but only if you call them. If you try to book
with them on-line using the code, you'll get a message that no rooms are
available.

I don't know about the Hilton as I didn't try them.

Good luck,
Rick

GAH!

I wish they had made that plainer on the website-- I liked the
Marriot much better, but reserved rooms at the Hilton for the
convenience of being near gaming.

So let's see, four months to engineer a Tenser's floating disk so I
can haul all the gaming gear across the street...

As of right now, all gaming will be held in the Marriott Marquis, in the
bottom two levels (where the dealer's room was, as well as the floor
right above).

Hotel rooms are already very hard to come by, however.

Best of luck.

Marchers,

Do any of you know whether the Atlanta Hilton will host the RPGA gaming
at D*Con again this year?  I am already daydreaming about my four-day
dose of Gran March goodness.

Thanks,

Susan T.

As our website gets updated somewhat more often, go by our website.
All year six GRM adventures are military.

Later,

Will

If you could include a link to the "wizards" website where you found
this info, I would be better able to answer your question.

Since we typically like to have more than one playtest, consider this

Travis,

If you check the Gran March website located at
http://members.aol.com/aeontrin02/ <http://members.aol.com/aeontrin02/>
and select the "Scenarios" option, you can pull up a list of all
available Gran March modules.  Each module will have a notation on
whether or not it can use Gran March military TUs.

Note that the link to the GM website is at the bottom of this and every
e-mail from this yahoo group and is on the home page of said group.

Thanks,

Ed P.
Military POC

Your insanity was long ago trumped by spiked-chain-wielding ape
idiocy.  There have been no octopi in the Gran March since.  But, I
have a great recipe for calamari...

From the Bissel Boards:

An excerpt from an address given by Lady Constance Lendel, Baroness of
Kynneret and delegate to the Court of the Land, to the Court of the
Land assembly.

"My colleagues... I hesitate to call you allies... the March of Bissel
finds itself in dire circumstances. I hesitate to call you allies, as
allies will rise to the occasion, and treat a threat against one as a
threat against all. You have not done this.

Worthy delegate from the Gran March, of course I do not address you,
here. We are grateful for what aid you have rendered.

Our capital city of Thornward was occupied for many years after the
last Kettite invasion - a conflict, I will add, that was between a
few of you and those barbarians, and had little to do with us.

Now, after treaties for peace have lain in place for several years,
Ket strikes again, unprovoked. This time, directly against us... and
they chose to attack during the coronation of our new Margrave. I can
think of no greater affront.

Has this direct attack on our sovereignty and monarch been met with
cries of rage and condemnation from our allies? No!

Thus far, but two have risen to aid in our defense... and one of those
is not even part of the valley! For shame!

Unlike the first Kettite invasion, this time we were prepared. We will
not allow there to be a third. We have marched into Ket, and currently
hold their only avenue of attack.

If you are indeed our allies, then we call upon you. We will march
into Ket, and eliminate their ability to threaten the Sheldomar
Valley, ever again.

If not, then this assembly is a joke... and a poor one, at that.

So, I ask you... what do you choose?"

:::::From POU::::

Good Intentions
By Michael Jones, Principality of Ulek Triad

The early morning sun rises deep within the Grindin Province of the
Principality of Ulek. A combined force surrounds Prince Olinstaad
Corond's command tent, and a large white banner with the gold-crowned
red axe flaps in the breeze. Other tents nearby herald the leaders and
elite troops from Keoland, Bissel, Gran March and the Duchy of Ulek. A
mercenary company from Greyhawk has the honor guard this morning and
the closest of them turns as a commotion breaks out near the Prince's
tent.

"WHAT!?"

The Prince's breakfast plate goes flying as he leaps to his feet at
the news brought to him by the Duty Officer.

"They've all been recalled, sir, they're getting ready to leave as we
speak."

"Out of my way, ye dolt. Axe... to me!" He stretches his hand and the
Axe of Corond whisks through the air and into the tight grip of the
Prince, an audible hum accompanying a flash of red and violet as two
of the Gems of Ulaa embedded in the head begin to glow softly.

Pushing past the officer and out into the camp, the Prince's
Adamantine Guard flank and follow him to where the troops of Bissel
are hastily preparing to move out. The rest of the camp stirs at the
activity, uncommon while they wait to move forward in the war against
the Pomarj.

"What's the meaning of this, Lieutenant Ahm? Ye've been recalled? By
who and for what? Yuir people are under my personal command unless
there's somesuch I don't know about?"

"Good morrow, Your Highness. Please accept my apologies. I had meant
to come and deliver the news in person." The Oeridian man glares at
the young dwarven lieutenant just now catching up. "We have been
recalled by order of the Margrave of Bissel. Forces of Ket have
attacked and we go to defend our homeland. No matter our good
intentions here with the Principality forces, the needs of our people
must come first."

The Prince grins for a moment and then laughs, the braids on his head
and beard swaying.

"Oh ho! That's rich! When has Ket not raided yours, and when have
yours not raided Ket? There's nothing between the two of ye but some
moth-eaten old boulders and a bunch o' Bramble trees... hell, if it's
trees yuir people want lad, the Emerald Enclave will hop right up and
start to planting when the REAL fight is over. Now, come on," the
Prince says and turns to walk away, "we'll send a message ta whoever
yuir new Margrave is and clear this right up and get ta planning our
assault. I was thinkin' yuir horsemen would be perfect to..."

A discreet cough stops the Prince, who turns back, silver eyebrows
furrowing as he notices the officer has not followed.

"I believe I gave ye an order, Lieutenant?" The Prince's eyes narrow.

"Indeed you did, Your Highness. Unfortunately, I cannot follow it, as
I have been unerringly recalled by the Margrave of Bissel and must
return with haste. The Margrave's seal countermands your orders in
this matter."

"Oho... so it does, so it does... very well then, lad. Do this... take
yuir fancy seal of Margrave Whoever it is this year, and run on back
and 'defend' yuirselfs from the terrible, terrible Ketite forces...
but when these Territories ain't so disputed no more... you just tell
yuir Margrave ta keep his forces and his good intentions. We dwarves
have long lives, long beards, and long memories... "

Hi. I dont know if anyone remembers me, but I started a Cavalry of the Kraken
thread
based on a character idea involving a dire bat riding octopus about half a year
ago.  I
havent played DnD until... tomorrow at SiFiGenre in Durham (where I'll see if
any other
querky character ideas work out).  Recently while looking at a forum I came
across a
build of a druid riding a dire bat with various charge boosting feats.  Im
wondering if my
idea got off the ground while I was gone and how the controvercies over octopus
riding
skills were resolved if at all.  Mostly Im looking for recognition (why else
would I play?).
Thanks

Oh and when did the Gran March navy pop up?
