My group has begun recording our sessions to post here on the blog in what I imagine as a sort of podcast. In this recording the group attempts with a small hobbit army to siege a castle to save their friends Leonard the hobbit who is imprisoned inside.
I hope you enjoy. The videos embedded contain only audio. If anyone knows how to post only the audio, please say so in the comments and I will do that in the future.
Part One: The Prep (Also entirely skippable if you want to go straight to the siege)
Part Two: I kick it with my energy legs!
Part Three: I already died once
Part Four: Its like a season ender in my mind!

Useful Charts Part1: Hit Charts
Basic Hit Chart

2-3 Shoulders
4 Upper Main Arm
5 Upper Off Arm
6 Main Hand
7 Off Hand
8-10 Ribs
11-12 Stomach
13 Groin
14 Left Leg
15 Right Leg
16 Left Knee
17 Right Knee
18 Left Foot
19 Right Foot
20 Hip
Complex Hit Chart
I was bored and drew up this chart on vacation once. It takes a bit more time, but if you like the special effects and that sort of thing, I think it works pretty well. I've been toying with it for a while and it seems to go well.

Ridiculous Hit Chart
In my defense, I was critically bored. This chart was simply for the sake of creating a 1d100 hit chart, and I don't use it. I imagine maybe you could implement it for gunshots or if you are just insane.

Let me know in the comments what kind of hit charts, if any, you use and if any of these were of help to you.
Good luck and keep rolling,
