Over a Mug of Ale [For A Better Age]

Wuffy: That's why you and the Fangs are covering me/running interference.


Seriously, 1 out of 10? I barely managed to be subtler than Bjarn, the bare chested six foot nord who's waving a sword and screaming, "Come to me to die!"


Stunt wise, I've always wondered if that makes _every_ post in a pbp game a stunt. Really, all the IC posts should be.
 
Somehow he just didn't seem to suit a sword in my head. I'm aware that the Vikings used 'em (particularly the richer ones), but it just fits better.


Plus it's easier to stunt- a sword basically just has blade, hilt and crossguard, whereas with an axe, you can stab people with the pointy end, catch things in the curve between blade and haft, all kinds of things.


Oh, and cut stuff, of course.
 
Your basic battleaxe, but I'm thinking double-headed and a bit more impressively large than that one, what with it being a grimcleaver and all.
 
Well my internet is down fricken AGAIN! I wish I could say I am surprised. This is definitely making me an unhappy man. Hopefully it will be back up tomorrow, and I will be able to post properly then. In any event I’ll just save what you guys have done today and recently and make a post on that, and get my reply up either Tuesday morning (if my internet is back up), or the evening when I get back from work, and can get to the library again for internet access.
 
Best of luck with the 'net. And thank you for keeping us informed, so we know you haven't dropped off the face of the earth.
 
Agreed, it's good to know whats going on, which you have managed to do even with your internet going away ;)


Couldn't be at a worst time though. Just at the start of tense combat.


Hopefully we won't have to suffer lag catch up problems, where we get back into the game to realise 150 ticks have gone by.


(Ood to know.. Jesus.. too much Doctor who...)
 
I'll get my next actions up, I just want to check something first: when you use a Ready action to draw a weapon and shield, can you start defending with them as soon as that tick's happened, or is it after your next action tick?


I basically need to know if I've got time for another volley, while still having weapons ready when they hit.


Also, I'm fine with you rolling damage for me, it speeds things up.

From my interpretation you use the Miscellaneous Action to draw your weapon, and your weapons and shield would be immediatly available. Like how an attack would deal its damage right on the tick you did the action.
 
About how long is it going to take Four Foot to get to the general? And the anima power rounds up, so the penalty is -2 to see him. Not that it would make a difference yet, but for future notice.

If Four Foot uses the Dash action, he could get to the general in five ticks.


Anima power rounding noted. Thanks for point that out.
 
What kind of rubble is being used to block the gate? Standing guard over Calypso doesnt seem like its needed, but we do have to open the doors.

Cool, time for another volley or two, then...
 
Always time for another volley or two.


I Seriously need to invest into a Jade Powerbow and some jade bracers bring down those damn 6 tick actions.
