Hey folks, sorry I'm late to the party in the main thread. Work was crazy friday and was out last night, should be able to introduce Landrae momentarily in the main thread though.
Some updates to the spreadsheet. Most MP (Manpower) allocation is done automatically. I've already set some construction goals already based on the expeditions needs which leaves a small amount of remaining MP in reserve. Weekly material gathering will be done later.
Research and Technologies will be done later which will enhance bonuses from structures and unlock manufactured goods eventually for the expedition to become self-sufficient. Most likely months to years down the road in game.

Initiative Order
18 - "Hanz are we the Baddies?" / YoFizz / PolarBearSoup
Keep in mind that Shield will not work until after the Surprise Round ends (Initiative Round 2) as no ones passive was high enough to detect the ambush. You can still cast it once Round 2 begins.
"If you're surprised, you can't move or take an action on your first turn of the combat, and you can't take a reaction until that turn ends. A member of a group can be surprised even if the other members aren't."
@Wooby, AiLan, Gorth - your character sheet links no longer are valid. Please resubmit them.
If you make a campaign, you can just have permanent access to the sheets. I recommend doing this for all your campaigns, unless there's some reason you can't.

I'm currently in the midst of switching subscriptions but since I have 9/12 months left, losing out on the full value isn't worth it. A campaign will be made when Customer Service decides to respond.

((OOC - I'll post my options for combat now, as at init 18 I'll be early in the order and probably asleep when it progresses))
If Landrae can get a clear shot on the spiders only using Faerie Fire then she'll cast that, moving to a position that would allow her if required, and then into a defensible position to ready her bow. If she'd catch a party member in the spell's AoE then she'll make a normal attack.
Attack: 17 Damage: 8 targeting the spider that attacked Roc.
Just waiting on two initiative orders - at current, the enemy will go first getting a double round.
Key Pointers:
Terrain is tight, ten foot in diameter "corridors" with no more than 15 foot visibility in any direction. The creatures attacking are 100% arachnids, large arachnids (taking up 10 feet) and have interspersed themselves in the center of the group.
The Savant (Scribe Talis) and his golems are closer to the front. I leave it up to you to choose where you are due to the haphazard approach of the group.
There is no guarantee that the two revealed enemies are the only ones.
Moving off the trail requires a DC 16 Athletics Check and an Action to clear through the thick webbing and creeper vines.

Sorry about the delay, I moved today, so I haven't had much connectivity. Here's my second initiative roll: 11
I've updated my character sheet to reflect 5hp lost and a point of exhaustion.
If it helps, my signature on every post has a link to my character sheet.
