[Labyrinth Land] LL Questions and Concerns

@Action Replay: In order:


Ogrekin Rank and File: Defense: 5, HP: 1


Ogrekin Champion: Defense: 11, HP: 7


Mogruul Bloody-Horns, Minotragos Hero: Defense: 12, HP: 8


While the rules for movement may usually prevent this, I think that Ixacise and MechaGhoul have set out on an audacious, or rather stupid plan, so I'll allow it this time. Next time, we'll use normal movement rules, and I'll be clearer in my descriptions of where monsters are.


Also, yes, I'm allowing follower burn to allow for criticals, within reason. If you kill off half the kingdom to insta-gib everyone you face, you may have a revolution out for you when you get back.

At least Oswin is.
 
To some degree everyone is although the enthusiasm of that mission or devotion to that god varies greatly between them.
 
Well, as the Oracle, it is fair to say that my mission is really, really devote. Time to fix up that orphanage...


And kill heathens.
 
Well I wouldn't call it that stupid or audacious the plan since targeting the higher threat is legit. Since with the dagger is that it like everything else is balance to the board game logic of the game. The dagger has the lowest damage out of all the weapons but makes crits easier to hit.


Which makes the dagger paradoxically both great and kinda crap at the same time. As its purpose is situational ignoring the weapon level damage boost. The mook monsters are gonna have a low defense and as such its easier to hit with a mediocre roll but your damage is gonna be not great.


But with monsters being used as bosses that means they're level is gonna be higher and consequently so will their stats like defense to make them harder to hit. However cuz of the lowered crit threshold the dagger has a better chance to hit somewhat as crits always do damage and also you got the chart which will give something beneficial
 
Out of curiosity, I'm uncertain if we've passed an init round yet for @MechaGhoul to attack again. Given the rest of the court @Varna @Powgow @Zyden @DeusExAlice have yet to move. @Dietaku was your post simply an ic response and not their turn? I'm lead to believe so given we haven't received any attacks or mentions of them in your post. Thanks for clearing this up in advance.

Thay may be, but you're cut off, by yourselves, and there's a wave of monsters between you and your allies. Also, you're not exactly a combat specced character. This strikes me as not very tactically minded, especially since you just effectively shouted "WOLVERINES" and ran headfirst into the thick of things without even alerting your allies to your plans.


Hopefully, this explains my calling your actions as such.
 
Yes but we wouldn't be proper murderhobos not doing it would we?


Also concerned about those people you listed as they haven't posted in a while both OOC and IC and OOC chatter is for me a nice way of gauging interest and enthusiasm about a game
 
So should I just jump in here once the GM okays my man and start flinging around ninja stars and bullets or what?
 
Thanks to Action Replay for reposting the derived stats! Maharaja is up to date now. I almost feel as if he has been... exalted. Will go catch up on main thread now and make a post.
 
Sadly I can only assist PCs I have a positive relationship which is just Sir East and Rouge right now. Hopefully I can build some positive relationships with the other PCs in the future so Maharaja can assist them too.


Also, Maharaja is terrible in combat since he has almost no War score. I did figure out a solution to the problem that is within the rules (Thanks Dietaku!) but I'll need a bunch of Reagents and Iron before that comes true.


Glad to see we are picking up steam again!

So I think by the power of jolly cooperation, the boss is now half the being he used to be barring divine intervention. In the interest of letting other people do things, going to wait until Organ gets a crack at it before using move again in this round unless I failed to kill minotaur.
 
Okay, a long post up. I had several actions to catch up on. Royal guard skill shields me from some or all of the damage and is a free interrupt. Then my actual action is to assist Organ.


Go team go!
 
I'm just going with the king was covered in his guard's blood and East is misunderstanding. Also massive damage.
 
Indeed. Congrats, everyone. I'm going to have to think up something a bit more suitably dangerous next time. I'm genuinely impressed, though, by how quickly you took on what I assumed to be a pretty gnarly final boss encounter.


I attribute this to you all thinking tactically and also Replay getting godly rolls. So, we can move to the End Phase, or we can continue the Dungeon Phase if you all want to do more spelunking in this particular area?
 
When in doubt, Sekiha Tenkyoken it out. I thought the boss was actually challenging, given we ended up having a few members take serious damage in that fight alone. Major props to Powgow and Zyden for the assists.


I'm fine with moving to end phase. Our original goal has been met, and we don't need to risk our followers any more today. The losses we've taken will hurt us as small as the kingdom is.
 
Alrighty. I'd like to hear from our other players before I make a decision, either way, and apologies to all involved with the latter half. I realized thast I may have railroaded you a bit, especially with the Heroics bit, but I've been building up to that for a while, and wanted to keep it a secret. If you got any issues with it, PM me and we can work something out. '


Apologies also to @MechaGhoul and @Parsnip. You guys kinda got the short end of the stick with the Dungeon Phase.
