[The OOC Thread] Where Dreams Come True [The Chosen of The Void ]

I will update in a bit, I have been doing nothing but PbP when I should be working. Not that I don't love you guys, but the next post is probably going to contain a lot of info that I need to double-check in a book.
 
From my POV, Furl is largely irrelevant.


The only thing we may want to do is look around the city to better asses the threat level, ie the presence of magical stuff, Eel is specialized just for this.


I am assuming that the gates have winch and portcullis.


Beyond that, I just need to know if it is easy to let the winch go to make the portcullis fall, and then destroy or damage the winch or the ropes/chains so that it can't be opened back easily.


Eel will probably climb as high as possible, better if he can reach a place as high from the guards as possible (if the which housing has a roof, for example).
 
Well, there are five guards on top of the wall that may have something to say about you getting up there. Of course they are spread out and would take several turns each to get to you.


Yes, the gate is as you assume. Traditional. Also, there is no magic in this city, which is strange I suppose for its high level of trade. Mostly though you notice its a trade of slaves and not artifacts so this is not completely impossible.
 
Hmm. Well, who is in what pair? We need Rondo and Eel or Hector in one pair for one gate, and Hattori and the remaining PC will take care of the other gate.


Also, I suggest that the bow boys snipe the guards, the heavies (so to speak) close the gate, and then the bow boys get up on top of the gate walls to shoot the civilians like fish in a barrel, and any other guards in the way. :D
 
We have Hector at one gate, Eel at the other and Rondo and Hattori in the middle, slaughtering everyone.


The bow boys at the gates just need to snipe down those that try to escape or open the gates, but I don't see the latter happening.


Usually portcullis are made so that they can be closed without effort and opened with difficulty, so we don't need the heavies for that.


To Eel the guards are largely irrelevant, and Hector shouldn't have too many problems once he flares his anima.
 
Just checking, we can climb up the portcullis after the gates are secured and the guards there are dead, to get atop the wall? Or would there be steps set into the wall to get up it from the town side? Probably the latter, but I want to make sure.

There are steps next to the gate to get ontop of the wall. Just claim your actions in game and I will get this gravy boat started.
 
I did, I did! Also, Orzhov, I hope you didn't mind my putting Rondo with Hector, I think it doesn't matter much anyway, and speeds things up a little. :)
 
Ummm, I think I was supposed to stay and bar the gates, was I not? So it does sort of matter that I'm the one moving my guy around. :P


That and I prefer to narrate my actions. Its just a pet peeve.
 
Just let me know what you guys would like to do. Sounds like you are going in a team of two, with two others soloing. Display those actions in game so I can give the very busy towns reaction to your crazyness.
 
Welp, Hattori was like "I be gettin' this party started!"


I will update late tonight. Gotta build a computer for the inlaws.


EDIT: Pfft scratch that ill do it now.
 
xarvh: Based on what I'm seeing from Lawgivers, Bardlebee is having us declare the actions and he makes the rolls for Chosen of the Void as well. So don't look that gift of initiative horse in the mouth. :D
 
This is exactly right, and if you all could make a stat block like Blackadder has for me, that would go a long way.


I will update tonight, I don't see Hattori's move, but that doesn't matter since he doesn't go first, yet.
 
*Kicks around screaming*


UGHHHGHGHGH!!


I wrote like a whole page of text of description, gone in a blink of an eye. I don't even know what I hit! FFFFFffff


Okay... I hit like Ctrl + V and I hit the mouse pad by accident, all of a sudden my sweet page O' text, turned into just "Rondo"


So... I dunno I guess I am blaming Rondo.


I guess I will update when I get home... I have to go home in 15 min anyway :(


There isn't a :( face big enough...
 
Welp, while I am here. Would you guys ever be interested in an IRC game? Perhaps to speed up the slowness of posting?
 
Undo is your friend. ^^


I often write on a text editor and save every 2 seconds. ^^


IRC could be fun... I'm currently living in Buenos Aires, UTC -3, but in a few weeks I'll move back to Italy/Germany/Netherlands/Whatever, about UTC+2.
 
Well xarvh, I will remember that. On of my Lawgivers told me that.


For you xarvh, it was a good thing because some how you had horrible rolls. :)
 
Bardlebee, I am invisible and performing a surprise attack.


They have a -2 external penalty to their wits+awareness roll, plus they are distracted by the action around Hattori and Rondo, I don't have the manual but that's another penalty.


It will take them some effort to realize where I am, and even then I am not a valid target for ranged attacks.
