I can picture the wizards and mercs arriving in the afterlife "So how'd you die" "We got the crap beaten out of us by three kids and an old lady." "So shame then." :Yes"
Amazing show. So much fun. I definitely want... I mean, NEED to get my hands on that phobia chart. Looks like a ton of fun! Best part... was the Lich realizing she was talking to Jim Darkmagic. well played on both sides of the screen. Well played!
Kate is such a great fit here. Now half the "C" Team has interacted directly with the A Team. Really makes me wonder what situation might have Walnut or Donaar come into things...
Shawn Wesley - I think them coming together would be really *cool* 😁 AC team...cool haha seriously though I'd pay to see a party of more than 4 players sometime.
Bro I have been an AI fan for years now. YEARS AND YEARS ago I was a huge Penny arcade fan, I just learned that Mike and Jerry are the creators of Penny Arcade and my mind is blown.
At first glance I thought this was a new session I missed somehow... I'm Jonsin' for new content you've all turned me into an Acq Inc addict!!! Need mah fix!!!
i actually cried with laughter during that first childhood fear encounter. when pat said “i take off all my clothes” i almost passed out. im so mad i didnt see this before now but im glad i finally did
Does anyone know how Chris organizes his gm'ing on the laptop? Or have any system of their own to keep track of things all one a computer? I just started gm'ing and I'm still trying to find a good way to do everything
The pacing of the adventure was off but I loved the addition of Kate / Rosie. More of her please! Far more fun than pretty much all of the 4th players drafted in :)
pennyarcadeTV That’s pretty sweet - I’d make a point of getting that info out there on the tweetzor earlier/louder next time - I’d already watched one of the stream records since couldn’t been up to watch it (I live in England and have a job 😔 but if this is not just the official, but effective directors cut/ultimate edition, then I’m gonna like fav and spread it round with glee.
We actually do that with every live show (which is why it usually takes a week or two), the people ripping it from Twitch has just become much more rampant, unfortunately.
The imagery of child Viani in front of the Snake man with two other kids hiding in a bunch of pillows whispering hints to him... While the gnome granny watches from the shadows. I love DnD
I JUST realized.... that Magic Missile would KILL Jim Darkmagic. If you take enough damage to do your negative value of full hit point total (in Jim Darkmagic's case, -2), that kills you outright. He took 4. He had 2. That's -2. That's dead. I know it's a DM's prerogative, and he can do what he wants - but I wonder if he (Chris) realized that.
I'm think that would just be considered unconscious, and you'd have 3 saving throw type rolls after that until you'd be considered dead, but I'm not sure
Dolphinitely But that's like 50/50 without medicine or spare the dying. The rex COULD HAVE OVERKILLED JIM. There is no saving throws when you instantly die.
So, as a 14 year player of tabletop, I feel I can weigh in here. Yes, technically, Jim Darkmagic would be dead if his hit point maximum is 2. However, there is a lot to be said for careful homebruling. The thing is, the death of JM would have been annoyingly difficult to deal with cannonically. What I imagine Chris (he who is DM, and there shall be no DMs before him) did, was consider Jim's max as his usual maximum, which, while low, is more than 2.
This is so great, but why is there no Acq Inc/Perkinsverse wiki so I can tell what she's talking about with losing my life (as I most certainly would) to the C Team?
@@omecronrodneydheel349 I'm not exactly sure. I think he wanted to step back after doing it for so long. I'm sure Jeremy is a great person, and a good friend of Chris, I just really love Chris' energy.
42:50 This is "men thinking they can get away with acting like children" on 2 different levels. xD Irl, they just assumed their mental state would have been altered as well, and so they act like children thinking they have a good excuse. And in D&D both of their characters are now children, and with their mental state completely in order, they take the opportunity to act their visual age with both hands. It's great. 2:00:20 Should have said: "Including yours? All of them." That way you avoid taking a guess at how many cubes there are.
I'm guessing he made a list of party-relevant fears and did a percentage into that such that any of them could have ended up with purple/bald/18, etc and it still would have been relevant.
How did two different people, on three separate occasions, get 13 from 7 + 5, and how did no one else catch it? I had to take out my calculator to make sure.
mrpstatic or the jump off the tree, slow fall negates 5x monk level in fall damage. she shouldnt have taken most of the damage she took. but then, if you forget you have an ability you cant rly use it, PnP's unwritten rule
Kris Straub needs to win all of the awards for this intro
Mike's reaction to Kate's attacks is just too perfect. And then the "What class are you even playing!?"

I love the way Kate giggles whenever she gets excited about her character doing something cool :)
The nat 1 to nat 1 to nat 20 literally had me dead. :D good job Omen LOL
I can picture the wizards and mercs arriving in the afterlife
"So how'd you die"
"We got the crap beaten out of us by three kids and an old lady."
"So shame then."
:Yes"
'...of the New Hampshire Darkmagics?'
NO. WAY.
New Hampshire isn't near Norway...
WAY
She might have been thinking about his grandfather. Remember, he was a powerful wizard according to this story line.
"I roll to kill Iron Tooth." - Jim Darkmagic III. I miss the good old days.
The good ole days are gooder and older at this point.
1:51:13 most epic dice rolling in my life ... 4,4,5 and than shit hit the fan
38:00 I love the two bald people laughing in the audience
I can’t wait to see the animated recap of the child transformation scene.
It's out now!
@@haydendavis9784 Where? I'm having trouble finding it. They have so many videos.
I absolutely love Kates playing-style, humor and comments.
Shes so mutch fun to watch
Nah, on par with Will W. Gimmi the trash witch anyway.
Head in the game the whole time.
1:07:05 The visuals of that scene happening are hilarious 😂. "I'm something of a wizard myself" *while in grass underwear*
I go back to this one every few months. Truly a top tier table comp here. Everyone's SO funny!
1:52 - 2:20. Dead. The sound. The way it's all done. Pure perfection XD
Amazing show. So much fun. I definitely want... I mean, NEED to get my hands on that phobia chart. Looks like a ton of fun! Best part... was the Lich realizing she was talking to Jim Darkmagic. well played on both sides of the screen. Well played!
Chris Perkins ABSOLUTE GENIUS
I love how creative Jim is with his spells, like it’s not even a conscious thing, his brain just kinda does its thing
That entire child transformation scene was the one of the best moments in Acquisitions Inc. that I've ever seen.
I have to disagree, v and Rosie doing the down and dirty in the pod after getting their body back was the funniest thing ever.
Love how the pins are basically a "BUT ACTUALLY" like real 8-year-olds playing make-believe. It's a clever mechanic.
2:14:55
Greatest moment in Acquisitions Inc history
Rosie Beestinger sure has a beestinging MOUTH!!! Daaaaamn, all her clapbacks are FAST, FIERCE AND CRITICAL HITS XD.
I love how Chris threw in Valindra Shadowmantle from Drizzt Series! I would love to be at the table with these guys and gals one day!
I need that phobia table!
I could watch the animated recap all day . Awesome funny . Great show as usual guys !! Thanks !!
This felt oddly reminiscent of the Goonies, with the group of kids on a big adventure and full of fears.
Kate is such a great fit here.
Now half the "C" Team has interacted directly with the A Team. Really makes me wonder what situation might have Walnut or Donaar come into things...
Shawn Wesley - I think them coming together would be really *cool* 😁
AC team...cool haha seriously though I'd pay to see a party of more than 4 players sometime.
Walnut would probably fangirl herself into fainting at the sight of Omin. Donaar would have no idea who they are.
I would love to see Jim Darkmagic and Donaar on an adventure
C team is hit or miss for me
Papa Wulf AI: civil war
Snotterfall is an underrated bit of wordplay.
As a dad I bet he uses it on a weekly basis
4:59 Best intern intro EVER!
Kate Welch is a wonderful woman!!! Great experience! Patrick Rothfuss' novels are Marvelous!!!
my teacher was like woah, ease up. and I'm like nah.
Anyone else preeeeeeety sure all those percentile die rolls for fears were completely made up just to fuck with the players?
"Thou shalt not question the Master of the Dungeon, lest to incur the Wrath of the God."
Where is the show in which Rosie and Viari meet for the first time?
I LOVE THESE VIDEOS I WANT TO GO TO A SHOW ONE DAY
Bro I have been an AI fan for years now. YEARS AND YEARS ago I was a huge Penny arcade fan, I just learned that Mike and Jerry are the creators of Penny Arcade and my mind is blown.
Can someone please link the follow up adventure to this? I found it a few days ago but cannot find it again... :
Pat plays an eight year old way too well. ;)
Andrew Iverson he has seven of them tied up in his basement. Scott Kurtz is down their too.
It's not so much that Pat plays an eight year old really well, but rather he never matured past eight to begin with.
He did mention he was the "father of an eight year old!" :)
I would buy a Jim Darkmagic coffee cup. Seriously would pay real money for it. Just saying...
How do I find/get that fear sheet cause I want it
I’m with Mike, I need a copy of this chart! Too funny! 😂
Yeah, let's just charge Valindra Shadowmantle, literally a Lich so powerful they made a god damn MMORPG about fighting her.
TheSneakiestWarlock that’s acquisitions inc for you baby
Hells yes!
At first glance I thought this was a new session I missed somehow... I'm Jonsin' for new content you've all turned me into an Acq Inc addict!!! Need mah fix!!!
i actually cried with laughter during that first childhood fear encounter. when pat said “i take off all my clothes” i almost passed out. im so mad i didnt see this before now but im glad i finally did
Does anyone know how Chris organizes his gm'ing on the laptop? Or have any system of their own to keep track of things all one a computer? I just started gm'ing and I'm still trying to find a good way to do everything
dnd beyond i think
Use paper and pen and copy of pages out of books your using. Just a thought
In Patrick's defense molest also means pester or harass (someone) in an aggressive or persistent manner.
"what class are you playing?!" Is the rest of the party with a monk in it 😂
Just noticed Katie’s d20 earrings. Nice touch.
The pacing of the adventure was off but I loved the addition of Kate / Rosie. More of her please! Far more fun than pretty much all of the 4th players drafted in :)
i think another sesh with Chris Straub would have good results
I miss scott
1:51:15 the greatest dice roll's in DnD history.
Chris and the FROGS im screaming
Okay. Wait. Stop.
I NEED to know where to get those lovely black and red dice~
30:25-31:54: They turn into kids. Oh. My. God.
5:00 Yoo! What is the name of this 8bit music? Is it just custom? Is there a full version somwhere? Sounds so good!
Where can you get the hoodies that jim dark magic is wearing?
Jim could have prestidigitation to change the color of his clothes lol
Thank god so stoked
Also i wonder why they uploaded this so late
Apparently new angles or something
We have it edited so that it's without the overlay stuff that's on the live version and containing all the best shots at the best times.
Awesome!! I forgot a bunch of this episode super stoked to rewatch, thanks for all the good work PA!!!

Isn't it worth it just to bask in the moment in history where "rampantly ripping from Twitch" is an actual thing, though?
Damn, I really need that fears chart!!!
The imagery of child Viani in front of the Snake man with two other kids hiding in a bunch of pillows whispering hints to him... While the gnome granny watches from the shadows.
I love DnD
1:11:21 take 100 psychic damage for that sick fucking burn.
Really want Ryan as Donaar on the main cast now.
He is useless.
Dream team = Rosie, Kthris, Diath, Strix, & Scanlan.
Two years later (starting tomorrow)!
I love you guys and would love too come see you live but too far as from uk will you ever be doing anything in the uk x
I JUST realized.... that Magic Missile would KILL Jim Darkmagic. If you take enough damage to do your negative value of full hit point total (in Jim Darkmagic's case, -2), that kills you outright. He took 4. He had 2. That's -2. That's dead.

What I imagine Chris (he who is DM, and there shall be no DMs before him) did, was consider Jim's max as his usual maximum, which, while low, is more than 2.
It doesn't really matter since he used the "get out of trouble" token and that's what chris expected regardless.
Kate plays so well with this group, i kinda wish they kept her as a regular instead of Holly
Just made a perception roll to see if Viari was standing behind me.
I did not see him. And then my dice went missing.
They never applied the Frightened status. Omindran would have had Disadvantage on the attack roll to kick the Thayan in the nads.
It's just a roleplay thing, if they use it or not it's not going to make or break the game. Just let them have their fun
Holy shit, Jim Darkmagic is Batman.
This is so great, but why is there no Acq Inc/Perkinsverse wiki so I can tell what she's talking about with losing my life (as I most certainly would) to the C Team?
I heard that there's animated version of the scene where they turn into children, but I can't find it.
Intro of their next pax game?
I was just about to sleep... Gosh dammit, sleep is for the weak!!!
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Chris Perkins ladies and gentlemen, Chris freakin Perkins!!!!! P
You gotta put the looped end higher up on your thumb.. it looks like the long end of the frog was catching your thumbnail
52:00 when omin turns around to see a bald guy Chris asks him you do what
Omin should have said Chris Perkins is that you
Chris straight up slipped and called her Valindra. I'm very upset that nobody in the party seemed to have recognized the name.
1:41:40 awesome Jim Darkmagic magic!
Which video shows the beginning of tomb of annihilation?
One of Chris' last appearances as DM.... very very sad.
Why so?
@@omecronrodneydheel349 🤦♂️
@@nickhayley why is he not dm'ing anymore?
@@omecronrodneydheel349 I'm not exactly sure. I think he wanted to step back after doing it for so long. I'm sure Jeremy is a great person, and a good friend of Chris, I just really love Chris' energy.
I actually can’t even with this shit, loved it
Why didn't they have the model from the previous PAX/Video.?
42:50 This is "men thinking they can get away with acting like children" on 2 different levels. xD
Irl, they just assumed their mental state would have been altered as well, and so they act like children thinking they have a good excuse.

Liches be crazy, am I rite?
2:10:00 The Lich takes one perfect step
How much of the c team do I need to watch before seeing this? 0.o
Valindra !! Im after her in Neverwinter !
What size are their d20's? 55mm?
Can someone link the next episode after this?
wait how come the fears fit so perfectly!?
I'm guessing he made a list of party-relevant fears and did a percentage into that such that any of them could have ended up with purple/bald/18, etc and it still would have been relevant.
Oh my, Grandma's making out with Driebus!
Really, guys, you're going to attack Valindra Shadowmantle? XD Just go home guys XD
How did they cure Jim's Affliction?
How did two different people, on three separate occasions, get 13 from 7 + 5, and how did no one else catch it? I had to take out my calculator to make sure.
I would wager they are adding a +1 bonus. Players do that a lot without saying it everytime. At some point the bonuses become understood.
What's the level of Rosy Beestinger in this scenario? at level 7 she should not taken any damage from that fireball
mrpstatic or the jump off the tree, slow fall negates 5x monk level in fall damage. she shouldnt have taken most of the damage she took. but then, if you forget you have an ability you cant rly use it, PnP's unwritten rule

What's the story behind Jim and the number eighteen?
Jack Winterheld the dinosaur he was riding is called 18 and helped him win a race in the episode before this
1:34:00 and 1:39:34
7 + 5 = 12
what is the episode before this one?
Chilhood fears feel scripted, but still awesome.
Very good
