[pnpgm] Game Update #200 - File #1330 - Party leaves pit cave

[Murtha, Mark]

Thanks.

Kell's plan is still the same if possible - teleport several of us to the other end of the tunnel to cut off any possible escaping Vong, attack from both sides.  If we have it, cast some kind of (non-deadly, non-chaos) silence spell to prevent our detection from Vong up the tunnel.  

This leaves party free to handle any vong in the niche and treasure area.    This is what Kell hopes to do.  Not sure if it'll work out.
