Post subject:  Bottled Companion: Supplies

Would it be possible to create a pack mule or a wagon, or something like it that represents a supply line or simply a party's supplies heading into the wilderness? It's basically a strategic problem, support and protect, with no mechanical benefit or penalty outside of pure roleplay. Is it even worth pursuing such a thing do you think?

I never thought of that. It would be Hella Dope!!!

Very Possible. I explored the toolset and these are the models i found that could be used for that. I do not know their ID.

Camel, Pack.
Ox Cart - Cut Scene
Ox, Pack
PHoD Mekillot, Pack

Some good, solid, choices there. Unfortunately, they do not have a penguin with a backpack.

No pack mules, but there is a pack ox. And also an ox with a wagon and rider.

Those would be my personal recommendations if you're going for something that looks like it's actually carrying supplies. And I'd recommend the regular pack ox over the cart and rider if you intend on moving around much.

Edit: Yep, you also got the Camel and the Mekillot if you're going for something a bit more exotic looking.

The suggestion adds to rp and gives no mechanical advantages. If it's not a problem technically or in some other way it seems like a great idea.

You'd probably need a bit of rp, maybe you could talk to some farmer (ideally cows, but I don't think we have many...) maybe Gilbert, with a DM playing him, or something, and then write up a quick DC request.

Hell, Tormaks DC donations should even make it for free, since it gives you no actual advantage.

I like this vid for what sword has in mind. The planes are like the adventurers, and the carriers are the supply line.

Much harder to have to protect slow moving fairly vulnerable targets.

I recall many times in pnp losing our mule(s), horses, etc and having to lose so much loot. Or choose between protect the convoy and maybe die and run losing everything and live. Great rp options. I have no idea how much work it would be however having zero familiarity with building in nwn.

out of topic:
i like the metal music. im a huge fan of the P51 Mustang, Spitfires and the Zero. Crazy skills back in those days. Modern times im a fan of the A-10, that aging Warthog. As a brazilian i love the A-29 Super Tucano. The Super T is an elegant aircraft with two 50 cal guns and modern avionics/targeting systems with sidewinders and a ton of other options. I quite enjoyed the link you posted, plus the other links from it as well, awesome air combat. thanks for that.

Sword,

That's awesome! I think my fav's from the ww2 period would be the typhoon, mosquito and the me262.

Since you liked the first one here's a land based vid with a song that always gives me goosebumps
