Zepher Posted June 26, 2015 Posted June 26, 2015 OoC: Have fun, Sandy! As a US citizen I feel I can finally hold my head a little bit higher on that front today, so I'm glad you're off to celebrate. A lot of my friends here are off to the city for parades as well! More in relationship to the Quest, Eric gave the Dr. the key to the library! Boomingham chuckles as the birds fly at them. "Chaps!" he calls to the were-lions. "You're making a ruckus that we're cleaning up! Don't tell me you can't fight your own battles!" He glances at Eric. "I'm assuming these are our fellow treasure hunters? Don't seem half bad other than their cowardliness. Rex, it's up to you a who you want to hit, my friend. Any one of these beasties should be cleaved in two by you easy enough." Boomingham steps forward and, drawing his Frozen saber, takes a mighty swing at Servine A. Rex charges forward and strikes at Servine B.

We gotta search the empty tiles for traps before goin through them first though." Ooc: I'm away at a music festival for most of tomorrow.

Cutcobra Posted June 28, 2015 Posted June 28, 2015 Heckz inspects the first tile to the left. As he looks through the magnifying glass he realizes he had no idea what he's doing and how to actually identify traps.
Sandy Posted June 28, 2015 Author Posted June 28, 2015 QM Note: Zepher, feel free to post actions for Khorne, as well as the battle order, if he's delayed. "We'll take a left. Heckz boy, use ya magic to destroy the barricades when we come to them. We gotta search the empty tiles for traps before goin through them first though." Heckz inspects the first tile to the left. As he looks through the magnifying glass he realizes he had no idea what he's doing and how to actually identify traps. QM Note: A little clarification is in order: you don't need to do the actions one by one for this puzzle. Just give me a full list of what you want to do on the path and how, and I'll calculate the turns your plan will take against the turns the werelions take. Inspecting every single tile may put you behind the werelions even if they stumble upon a trap. Also, barricaded tiles do not cost a turn to cross, since you need to be on them to destroy the barricade, and neither can they be jumped over. Only empty tiles contain traps. It is taken granted that if you find a trap, you will jump over the tile, and of course you need to jump over holes.
Zepher Posted June 28, 2015 Posted June 28, 2015 OoC: Bah! Hadn't even noticed he hadn't done it yet. Eric throws a Diseased Silverfish Wing from the back row at the Bird-of-Paradise. Battle Order Rex Boomingham Eric

Zepher Posted June 29, 2015 Posted June 29, 2015 OoC: Eric attacked from the back row, so the damage should have been halved before his SP was applied. Boomingham bats away the forest critters. "Look at that, Rex! Already proving yourself the only able member of our company." Boomingham glances at Eric, also barraged by forest creatures. "Not our best showing, old chap, but at least we can rest assured that without us Peg-leg and the boy are face down drooling already." Repeat All.
Khorne Posted June 29, 2015 Posted June 29, 2015 "Not our best showing, old chap, but at least we can rest assured that without us Peg-leg and the boy are face down drooling already." Repeat All. OOC: Wouldn't it be better if I also attacked one of the other Birds and Snakes instead of the Paradise one? I could do a lot more damage using Conspirator or Godricsleif. "Heh, these damned birds though. Almost as annoying as the boy-mage's whining."
Pyrovisionary Posted June 29, 2015 Posted June 29, 2015 Ooc: haven't received a pm and want this to continue so... Sarge waits at the entrance, incase the enemy succeeds and tries to get out this way. Heckz and Peri search the pyramid, searching the empty squares with a microscope, jumping over the ones that have traps and holes, and using spells to destroy barricades.
Zepher Posted June 29, 2015 Posted June 29, 2015 OoC: My only concern is that you're the only one who can really target it.

Sandy Posted June 29, 2015 Author Posted June 29, 2015 Sarge sent Heckz and Periwinkle into the Buried Pyramid along the left path, while the two werelions took the right one. The heroes moved through all empty tiles by investigating them first (13 turns). Along the way Heckz destroyed two barricades with magic, spending 2 ether (17 turns), and jumped over one hole (19 turns). They also discovered one trap from the path and jumped over it (21 turns). Meanwhile, the Rakshasa advanced through the empty tiles without investigating them (6 turns). They destroyed one barricade with shovels (9 turns) and jumped over two holes (13 turns). They stumbled upon one trap on the way (18 turns) but got to the treasure first despite of that! When Heckz and Periwinkle made their way to the end of the path, the werelions had already turned back, leaving behind a group of angry goblins. "Where ist my precious?! Tells me, your fools! Who tooks it?!" "Not seen it, Princess Gobbledegook!" "Nuh-uh, it ist gone like poof!" "Maybe those peoples tooks it!" "Thiiieves!!! Catches them, dumb underlings! Give me back my preeeciooous!!!" "Hey, it wasn't us!" But it was no use trying to convince the enraged goblins, so Heckz and Periwinkle had to fend them off and hope that Sarge could stop the Rakshasa on his own. PREPARE FOR BATTLE!

Pyrovisionary Posted June 29, 2015 Posted June 29, 2015 (edited) Sarge was waiting outside the pyramid in case the werelions won the race. He was not at all surprised to see them emerge victorious with a sparkling gem in their possession, but he was prepared. "Are you seriously playing it dirty, grampa? You can't just admit defeat?" "Your friends are in some steep trouble inside there with a bunch of furious goblins. Go help them instead of messing with us!" What would Sarge decide? Battle the werelions for the gem, or rush in to help Heckz and Periwinkle against the goblins? Sarge chuckles, glad his plan to intercept the Lions in the case of a defeat had worked. He draws his greatsword, then leans on it whilst smoking a cigar. "You know what lads; I think I'll take you. The mage and the girl are good little fighters," The knight uses his intimidating voice to try and coax the gem out of the lions; "Cmon lads, I've been in the business a long time. Just hand the gem over and I'll say that you lost it in a fair fight. Other wise you can lose it in an unfair fight." Ooc: Don't worry Cutcobra, I haven't abandonned you just yet. I plan on throwing a Sleep-bomb then taking the gem from their unconscious bodies (And if that doesn't work I'll behave and just fight them, Sorry Sandy ) Edited June 29, 2015 by Pyrovisionary
Cutcobra Posted June 29, 2015 Posted June 29, 2015 OoC: Really sorry for not sending the PM, but I have been busy lately. By the way, I've got a Smoke Bomb so should I use that? Heckz was half disgusted and half scared, as usual when fighting hideous big monsters or a bunch of hideous little monsters. "Don't you worry Peripoople, I've got a plan." Do I have a plan though? That goblin princess looks like she knows some arcane moves. Those other goblins look like they could use some salads and healthy exercise. I'm hungry. Does Kabob sell sweet Kabobs? Wait, right, plan, hmm... I hate Periwinkle. Heckz wonders about the many things in life and how Smoke Bombs are marvelous.
Pyrovisionary Posted June 29, 2015 Posted June 29, 2015 (edited) Ooc: Your choice but I'll give you one of my smokebombs in return if you choose to use yours seeing as my overthought got us into this situation Edited June 29, 2015 by Pyrovisionary
Sandy Posted June 30, 2015 Author Posted June 30, 2015 Ooc: Don't worry Cutcobra, I haven't abandonned you just yet. I plan on throwing a Sleep-bomb then taking the gem from their unconscious bodies (And if that doesn't work I'll behave and just fight them, Sorry Sandy ) QM Note: That would be a battle action, and you should know by now what I think of battle actions outside of battles. I'll start the battle after I get back from work.
Zepher Posted June 30, 2015 Posted June 30, 2015 OoC: I think you're still calculating the free hits on Eric incorrectly? Shouldn't the bird's attack be halved because he's in the back row? Boomingham stares down at the snake carcass and then at his sword. He grins wildly. "Not too tough! Eric, come on chap, can't hit the pretty bird?" Boomingham turns his attention to the Serpivine C while the rest of his party repeats.
Cutcobra Posted June 30, 2015 Posted June 30, 2015 "You know what? I don't have time for a goblim makeover. Byeses non-preciouseses." Heckz uses his Smoke Bomb and escapes th Pyramid.
Khorne Posted June 30, 2015 Posted June 30, 2015 OoC: I think you're still calculating the free hits on Eric incorrectly? Shouldn't the bird's attack be halved because he's in the back row? I always take half damage, even when I fight in the front row, because of the Boots of Evasion. It's not even necessary to put Eric in the back row . Boomingham stares down at the snake carcass and then at his sword. He grins wildly. "Not too tough! Eric, come on chap, can't hit the pretty bird?" Boomingham turns his attention to the Serpivine C while the rest of his party repeats. "I'm more in favour of direct strikes. Throwing stuff at my adversaries isn't really my thing.", Eric snapped. Eric throws another Diseased Silverfish Wing.
