  Mykkal knows just when to put his hand into the party and stir things up, and when to sit back and let the RP happen. Merchants of Mayhem is a great game run by an outstanding DM!

  MoM: Always an interesting story line. This DM knows when to move the party along, and when to let them RP and tell their own story. Perfect Balance, hmm.. he should play a druid *teases* Great Game Mykkal. Always a pleasure.

  Outstanding game, Mykkal. Solo DMing for such a large party is very daunting. You handle it with ease and style.

  With the birth of a foal, Mykkal and Athena reveal the answers to many questions and present us with an epic quest. Free of the ghosts of past Horselords, we face hell. Fanatastic setting, story, and roleplay. Bravo!

  Outstanding game! Mykkal and AthenaMeter are quite an accomplished team. Their ability to work well with each other while running npcs or leading the party across the desert with a nameless horse is awe inspiring. Kudos!!!


09/04/07 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10
  As usual, they're great DMs. I'm curious to see where this story is gonna lead us.

  Nice mix of RP and hack-and-slash this time. Nothing like putting the characters in a bad situation to find out how / if they react. :-)

No, its not supposed to make sense.

  Great game, Mykkal! The aftermath of the ambush on the caravan was quite well done.

  growler does it again. A flawless game with more intrigue and twists than you can shake a stick at. Those vile shambling creatures are fun. They remind me of some people I knew.

  Absolutely a lot of fun. Growler can keep you on your toes with the perfect balance between role playing and fighting. Never a dull moment.

  Mykkal's storylines are compelling. His attention to detail is outstanding. His NPCs are brought to life, vividly. He is an amazing DM. Thank you for your dedication.

  Throughout the campaign, RoAnnon and AthenaMeter encourage subplots and the development of character relationships. Yet they skillfully manage to move the plot along. The epic feel of the campaign is fantastic. Thank you for the wonderful gaming experience. You both are great assets to Realms of Annakolia

  Great Game! the NPCs always have the feel of PCs interacting and the plot elements tossed into the mix are either wholly unexpected or done in a way that is fresh and new. These two DMs work well together.

  The DMs have gone out of their way to add so much more to this game.

Forum RP, custom Prestige Classes and special items and abilities in-game.

It all adds up to a great experience.

  great job mike mkm and a.m.!this game gets better every week, we just have to remember to remind newbies and vets alike the fundamentals we don't loot bodies we dont believe in wealth etc..and we all need to continue sticking together..i thought your guide choice was great and the npc's are always rewarding rp.

  Another intriguing game from this dynamic duo. Deliciously, the plot unfolds.


02/19/07 10 10 10 9 10 10 10 10 10 10
  You have done it again: you managed to keep me glued to my seat for another session. The incorporation of the custom prestige class seems natural to the plot and character development. We have a healthy group of players and lots of enthusiasim... that means the DM Team is doing it the right way by keeping the players coming back for more!


02/18/07 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10
  Great Game! I can't wait for next time.


01/29/07 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10
  A wonderful session, rich in character and detail. Everything worked nicely, the placeables, the NPCs, the roleplay, and the size of the group. Thank you.


01/29/07 8 10 10 8 10 8 10 8 10 10
  Battle on an epic scale, just the right sized canvas for the Horselords!

The enemy are some times stupid, sometimes sneaky, just as they should be.

A real ring-dinger.


01/23/07 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10
  The horse derby was a great game! It took a tremendous amount of set up with all the NPCs and placeables. I loved the surprize plot twist. Great fun! Thank you for a wonderful time.


01/23/07 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10
  Great fun and the atmosphere with the horse race was really nice.


01/23/07 8 10 10 10 10 5 10 10 8 8
  A magnificent page in the Horselords' history, with many thanks to the DMs who filled-out the race!

The race-track bystanders were a hoot, and the unforeseen denoument brilliantly executed.

Great show!


01/22/07 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10
  Awesome game. The setup was fantastic, capped with the little crowds of people waiting for the racers to pass. I had a blast.


01/22/07 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10
  Interesting and unique characters, surprising twists in plot, fabulous setting... what more could I ask for? I had so much fun that I didn't want the session to end. Thanks Halfling Heaven, growler, and AthenaMeter.


01/22/07 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10

  The Shrew and Groo had a fine assortment of NPC's that really made the place feel like a good old tavern! I think Grandma ought to get Best in Game in this one though!

Ya gotta try the Groo! (Just don't sit there watchin' Grandma gather the ingredients! lol)

Very fun game!

  Growler continues to reveal a well crafted story, peopled with richly developed characters, and history for the Harras or Horselords. The world Annakolia is a fabulous backdrop to the story.

  Excellent fun, exciting times.

This GM really knows how to play on the strengths and weaknesses of a party, without danger of sending them to the afterlife.

An enjoyable mix of RP and adventure.

  Top of the line DM. Trying to pull the group of players together is a challenge no doubt! I don't envy you in keeping all the players happy, but somehow you pull it off. Great ideas in plot, NPCs, entertainment. Well done.


12/05/06 8 8 8 10 5 5 10 7 10 8
  Excellent recovery after the early crash.

The challenges were tough but not deadly (well, not for me at least), and I feel you have the balance about right.

What appear on the surface to be fairly simple exercises, highlight the startling strengths and weaknesses of the group, and lend for some keen RP.

I found the fire traps on the training course a little aggressive, however. You should bear in mind that all three may be triggered in succession.

Surely the sting of failure is more important than the amount of damage?

One other criticism -- it's very difficult to figure out who is and who isn't a Horselord. I feel 'de-facto' Horselords need to be outfitted *before* the game, not after, as this has a particular impact on the RP.

Keep up the good work. The campaign is unfolding in a mouth-watering fashion.



[growler_5001's reply to comment: Unfortunately the crash threw us for a loop this day; loot disappeared, course rebuilt hastily, encounters trashed, and outfitted players lost all gear. *sighs* Let's hope for better conditions next time around!! :-) ]

  What a wonderful game. The NPCs were well played and really added to the interest of the game. This DM team is an inspiration. Keep up the fabulous work. Always a pleasure. Looking forward to the next game.
