Pacing:
Delight is to him- a far, far upward, and inward delight- who against the proud gods and commodores of this earth, ever stands forth his own inexorable self.

I think it's fine but our Duke could pick up his pace. :twisted:
History prefers legends to men. It prefers nobility to brutality, soaring speeches to quiet deeds. History remembers the battle and forgets the blood. What ever history remembers of me if it remembers me at all, it shall only be the fraction of the truth.

DM pacing is fine, but one of the interesting things about this type of play is that since a lot of decisions are hierarchical, there's a risk of some PCs being delayed while waiting on decisions/orders from other PCs. I've definitely been guilty of this in the past, myself. That said, I think ewan handles these issues very fairly.

I think the pace is just fine Ewan as clever guy posts for us if necessary and he is doing it as close to PC as possible so when we are back it`s like we missed nothing. Kudos Ewan great job indeed because isn`t easy stay that close to the original!
