CHARACTER SHEETS!!!!!! Viari 1:13:45 Omin Dran 1:22:40 Jim Darkmagic 1:24:00 Evelyn Marthain 1:43:25 Walnut Dankgrass 1:46:20 Viari is a Human Rogue. •Thief subtype. Standard ability array. AVG hp. •+2 to DEX at 4th and 8th level gives him a game max of 20 DEX •He has an unknown extra feat at 1st level. He also has the previous used ability to RAISE THE FREAKING DEAD with a song. This is probably a very generous swap allowed by Chris Perkins. •Chris always did favor Viari, but to be fair, the thief subtype actually does emphasize taking extra actions as a class ability •That said, activating Chippie as a free action is really unprecedented in every ruleset going back to 1st ed and completely broken. •He has a +1 dagger listed, is it the Apocalypse Dagger? •That -1 WIS Save is disaster waiting to happen. Did Chris go light on the WIS saves...hmm. Omin Dran is a Half-elf (!?) War (!?) Cleric of Tymora. •Non-standard ability array (probably rolled). AVG hp. •Has the barely-used feat Heavy Armor Mastery at 4th level. He takes 3 fewer points of damage from non-magical weapons. He has hopefully swapped this out for something better lately.. DM permitting. He increased his WIS at 8th level. •Really should have taken Infernal for improved one-sided contract making purposes. •I'm thinking he went to a high STR melee type of build because Binwin left and he thought Omin would need to "Tank it up a bit". This hasn't happened though as Viari usually ends up jumping straight into danger and nearly dying. •The +2 CHA as a half-elf is kind of wasted here too, and the 8 to DEX is just a flat out bad design choice for any 5e build. That said, Omin is a great character so it doesn't really matter. Jim Darkmagic is human Conjurer of the New Hamp-Shire Darkmagics •Standard ability array. AVG hp. •He has the Alert feat. He is never surprised in combat and has an additional +5 to Initiative. He raised his INT by +2 and has the Spell Sniper feat. He doubles the range of his attack-rolled spells and ignores cover. •He can apparently produce Doves with his 2nd level Minor Conjuration feature. This is not strictly by-the-book but...dammit this is Jim Darkmagic we're talking about here. Rules have no meaning to him. •That said, apparently Defense has no meaning to him either. He has a CON score of 10, a CON Save of +0, a grand total of 38hp and an AC of 12 at 9th level. This means that Viari can hit him with a roll of 2. He can actually be one-shot with a good sneak attack or catching himself in his own Fireball. •He did not bother with the Perception skill but he did take Animal Handling 2 be cont..

Jeremy, you stand on the shoulders of a giant. And you did an amazing job. You took that baton and ran with it. This was great fun.

[@seamusbogbrush4465]

I have to say, having binge watched all of Acq Inc and DCA over the last few years, I think Anna Prosser is an incredible role player. She has a very quick wit and has excellent acting and speech improvisation skills. She also does not suffer from the selfish play styles of some other players. She never shouts over other players, bosses them at the table, or cuts them off. And she has a good sense of humour when fate or the DM turn against her. It was a shame the Acq Inc team did not bring her back. One wonders if the humorous interchange with one or other players in role play, while entertaining for the audience, did not rub someone or some people the wrong way. I think a better solution would be to start a long running prank war between the two characters, allowing the other character to get revenge (and laughs) in that fashion.

[@pareidolist]

Please have Amy do many, many more Acq Inc games! She is an absolutely perfect fit for the group.

[@WuRaidr]

2:08:32. Jim hits the table with 100 points of blunt damage.

[@Gregnier]

okay... I don't care what it does to the C Team or the Wafffle Crew... Evelyn and Walnut are now A-Team permanently. The interplay between Viari and Walnut is gold, the story that an Evangelical Paladin and a Atheist Wizard can tell is just gold....

[@drsch]

Oh God, please no. There are few things that would make me stop watching Acq Inc and putting Evelyn and Walnut in full time would be it. They really need to stop doing these Waffle/C-Team Acq Inc crossovers. The chemistry the core Acq Inc players have is an amazing thing and while C-Team and Waffles can be entertaining on their own, they bring nothing whatsoever to the able when they mash them in like this. Kate was a train wreck when they brought her in and these two were just as bad.

[@_koza]

Jeremy Crawford is just as good as Chris, if not a little better IMO. He paints such vivid scenes & characters & he rolls with the players' punches perfectly. He's got a certain flair to him & his pacing is spot on. If you're unsure about watching this because it isn't 100% the original crew, give it a shot! Change doesn't have to be bad, it certainly isn't here! It just feels like another amazing Acq Inc show.

[@asdrubaelvect8038]

No... Hes ok... CP is bedrock. It just feels weird without him.

[@_koza]

​@@asdrubaelvect8038 It does feel slightly off at first, but if you put yourself in a neutral mindset it becomes very similar. (the players at Acq Inc. kinda run the show anyways. :P) Chris & Jeremy's styles & voices are super different so I could see how anyone could have trouble adjusting. It's really hard to get out of that comfort zone where you know what to expect. The table will develop a chemistry that works for the majority eventually. The only thing they're missing for now is inside jokes. lol Who knows, maybe Chris will come back for a game as a guest player or even DM for them with Jeremy as a player in the future! I'm not gonna tell anyone what to feel, if someone's personal Acq Inc. golden age is over then it's over - all the cool memories are still there, but don't let yourself shut the door to something before you get a feel for it. You might like it eventually! Give it some time! :)

[@drsch]

Jeremy is an average DM who can only entertain with a good table. Chris had the ability to elevate any table, no matter who was playing. I don't hate Jeremy at all, but I'm less motivated to watch the Acq Inc stuff not for sure. It also doesn't help that they keep showhorning in people from the C-Team and Waffles, which adds nothing to the dynamic of any value.

[@_koza]

@@drsch Dang man, you must have had some nice DMs at your games! I haven't had a DM like that ever. lol I'm kinda jealous. And for bringing in people from the other games, I half agree. Strix meshes so well with this table, especially her rivalry with Jim. And Rosie Beestinger was pretty fun too. Both of them know how to play their characters for an audience. But the rest of them are pretty meh when they're not with their usual crew. I assume it's mostly for cross advertising while also filling in for a player that can't show.

Alright, Evelynn might be one of the most hilarious people in this session, if not others, but holy cow I was tearing up at certain points.

@@drsch uh that's stupid of me... Thanks for the Info. Nontheless I like the new DM :)

[@jacobhumphrey3535]

I went into this episode not knowing Chris retired. It was like having my heart stepped on, and I was really hesitant to see how Jeremy was going to do. After this, I have to say that I am extremely pleased to see how this will go moving forward.

"I'll be fine." Famous last words.

I just want to say, what I love most about Walnut's design is that her clothes aren't made of leaves. SERIOUSLY! What's up with druid characters wearing leaf-clothes??? I mean, druids are experts on all things nature, I'm pretty sure they know how to make cloth.

This was a very fun session to watch

[@BOLANAREDE321]

In the opening cartoon, when Perkins sails away, did y'all notice every character he's DM'd EXCEPT Binwin was in that scene at 4:19?

[@TitoRigatoni]

I didn't see Aeofel in there...

[@BOLANAREDE321]

@@TitoRigatoni second tallest character. On the right in between K'thriss and Donnar, just above Jeff.

Scott would probably have to give his permission to Penny Arcade to use his character.

Dude I can’t believe how popular the Blue Angels are!!! I was born,raised, and still reside in Pensacola Florida. I grew up with them, and when other people reference them it baffles me because I forget how big they are.

[@AtomikaBlerd]

Devin Rising I live outside of Philadelphia by a now defunct Naval air base. Every year the Blue Angels would put on a show that flew right over my house. It was so cool.

[@etoney11]

Sad to see Perkins one of my top favorite DMs but let's see how he does. For Chris to bless it I have high high high hopes.

[@CoopMoe]

The difference I'm seeing is that Perkins was responding to the game at the table and so far, Crawford has them playing HIS game. It's still a decent game, but the difference is noticeable.

[@mrskribble]

Evelyn is too pure for this world.

[@PeterCadier]

Jeremy is an excellent DM! Look forward to the next eleven years!

[@samwright4998]

Not bad for a first show with a new DM, I'm sure it'll take a few more live sessions for the group dynamic to hit its stride. Still Chris will be sorely missed. He had a warm personality and quick wit that always left me thinking it was less about marketing and more about friends gathered to play a game they love.

[@ERBarratt]

Amy is getting so much better as time goes on. Really considered role playing, she fits right in with both C and A teams.

[@Avatarlatte]

I was kinda nervous about the new cast members but good lord these girls are funny 😂😂👏🏼👏🏼

[@peterrants9634]

7:36 and everyone who hasn't ever played 3.5, only 5e stood up lolz. I'll miss you Chris, your name showed up in many 3.5 books showing that you had talent before Magic the Gathering.

[@Tie518]

I had to leave the series alone for a awhile and now that i'm back I can stop comparing in my head. This is some freaking quality DMing

[@patrickb.8485]

The animated recaps are awesome.

[@JohnSo]

It's just SO FITTING that Viari has the immovable rod, considering how much he adores to be very high up in the air xD.

[@JohnSo]

OMG I just arrived at the circus part. As a magic player, inside im screaming: GET AWAY FROM THAT CIRCUS, NOTHING GOOD WILL HAPPEN, YOU'LL BE SLAUGHTERED.

[@nivenfres]

For you Patrick ... ALL THE DAMAGE!

[@SteveSilverskull]

Jeremy really knows his business. great NPC's, great worldbuilding.

[@toddparker2377]

Love the guest star, the addition of Walnut Dangrass, & The charity Pat is promoting. Most of all I love the new DM Tim. He had me hanging on every word. Anyone that can corral those players deserves a medal. Lol. Perkins is still my fav DM, but this new DM is definitely my 1-A.

[@andyh2783]

Dude that "new DM Tim" is THE Jeremy Crawford.....the Sage for gods sakes.......hes one of the main bosses at Wizards of the Coast

[@toddparker2377]

That would be my bad lol

[@alqx2210]

I was SO SAD when Chris announced he was leaving, but you did an AMAZING job Jeremy. Had me enthralled the entire time. I dare say you do NPC voices better than Chris. Your NPC characters are amazing and unforgettable. Thankyou!

[@georgedaniels8198]

I was expecting to really miss Chris but man, Jeremy was great. He took on the role of DM incredibly smoothly and the game felt just as rewarding to watch as every Acq Inc game before it.

[@rossbatten2912]

Man Jeremy really has a thing for electricity
