Over a Mug of Ale [For A Better Age]

Bjarn'll be trying to hold the Varajtul there a little longer, maybe a Mob-Dispersing Rebuke to help out and stop us Dying of Horrible Death.
 
The Varajtul? Kill us? We're Exalted. We could tear through them like knives!


Well, barring them having good coordination...
 
Solar War Charms and maybe someone rolling an Intimidate-type Presence attack against the entire Varajtul horde might help.

Well between the Fangs, and then the random civies, sure we can live.. But right now. We bust open the gates for the crazy cannibals. Until we can hold the gates were currently sitting dead center in Nice job breaking it hero
I reiterate what I said several posts ago: Anoké broke the wooden doors, not the iron gates that actually can hold out a barbarian horde.

I was just saying it's wide open right now and they could get in. I wasn't literaly saying it was broken open. Just that it could go horribly wrong. (Hence the link to TVTropes)
 
We got it covered. We may not all be Exalts, but we can still kick ass!
 
By the way, if there is anyone particlularly interested in catching the 12:23 Pterok Aerial Sightseeing Tour of the town had best let his interest be known to the DK strafing the crowds looking for good targets to do a grapple-heave and throw them a few hundred feet into the air and see how well they land in the middle of a pack of their buddies before I start throwing Blood Apes into the air and shooting them several times before they hit the ground.

Thank you. I'll have a post up for Asyk later today. 8)
 
As noted before, I'm just delaying my action until I can do something. Calypso can't do anything except ride around with Anoke. Just waiting for you, Sherwood.
 
Archivist.


On the damage roll for the blood ape you counted 10's twice again, it's only 6 Don't know if that still kills him.


I was tempted to throw a flurry in allong with the dash but I'm not sure whats still alive. Can we get a quick recap of whats still standing and coming down on the fort?


I know there a mass of blue things still swarming, I'm just wondering where we stand.
 
Thanks for catching that for me Wuffy. I think I got mixed up over the attack rolls vs. the damage rolls, and accidently double counted the 10’s there.


To recap what is going on:


Bjarn and his Fangs have been fighting a group of Varajtul. Bjarn has injured the chieftain and the blood ape, and has been slightly wounded by the blood ape in return. Due to their casualties the Varajtul have backed off in this area for a short period of time as they regroup, and more Varajtul charge forward. Right now only the blood ape is fighting Bjarn.


It seems to be mainly barbarians raiding the fort. Though Jorik did see some ghost among their numbers a little bit again, but they seemed to have disappeared among the horde (unless Jorik would like to make an Awareness roll on that).


Four Foot made his escape after slaying the Varajtul general, and Asyk caught him as he jumped away. Asyk and Four Foot are now flying over the battlefield.


Anoke and Calypso are at the mid-northern half of the battlefield near Silver Mist and Granite Wings. They are going to try and disengage with the Varajtul and make a fighting retreat if possible here soon.


Flickering Glass is on top of the Icehold wall where a group of mercenaries is approaching the gatehouse. She also spots potential trouble starting between the Valhal and the Icehold citizens.


The Valhal have more or less weathered the first wave of the Varajtul attack. But the Varajtul have a lot more men ready to throw into the fray.


There is still one blood ape attacking the Varajtul, but it is being swamped and killed by the horde. A group of zombies is very slowly approaching the gap in the Valhal wall, but it won’t be arriving anytime soon. There are also a number of ghosts spread out among the Varajtul. The beast cavalry seems to have stalled since they killed the Varajtul general. Asyk and Four Foot can see some of the Varajtul leaders in that group arguing among themselves.


That cover everything for everyone?
 
Just have Asyk have killed a random member of the horde on a Speed 6 attack, so I should act next on tick 32.
 
Bad news that could make things awkward- I've got advance warning that I can't get online for two weeks starting from the 16th. We need to deal with that somehow, and pausing the game definitely wouldn't be fair.


Sorry... :(
 
Have someone you trust say what Bjarn would do in the meantime?


Also, I have a question: Why are you Morkais' Chosen when you have a Space Marine avatar? Morkais sounds like a Tau name.
 
I would say if you are ok with one of the other players here playing Bjarn, that would be the easiest way to do it. Otherwise we would need to get into things like making Bjarn a temporary NPC.
 
As long as they're happy with doing that, I'm fine with it. I think you've picked up how I'm characterising him; the only thing that hasn't really come up is that using Husband-Seducing Demon Dance to make people fall in love with him is the nuclear option, and would only really come out in very dangerous situations.


Thanks!
 
I'd be more than happy to do it, and I've got plenty of time. Now you may come back and find Bjarn working as a fence for stolen merchandise, but hey, that's part of the character, right?
 
Only if he's fencing it boisterously and taking a cut of BEER.


I'd settle for whisky, actually.


As I say, I'm fine with that, and don't be afraid to apply your sense of humour at appropriate moments.
 
Four Foot us just going to take wait actions until Asyk puts him down, hopefully in the midst of the fight.
