Flipz Posted November 12, 2013 Posted November 12, 2013 What was so horrible about it? Other than the Yeti Fur Coat? 1. Haroka returned and terrorized Miranda. 2. The Proggs invaded Luosh and wreaked massive destruction. 3. You killed half the NPCs in Eubric. Oh, and Wren was there, too. Quote
Endgame Posted November 12, 2013 Posted November 12, 2013 (edited) Somewhat like last year, but also include a separate event with elements from the Z-Mail event with Grogmas Cards, so players can see what other NPC's are up to. I would agree with this - I loved Z-mail. 1. Haroka returned and terrorized Miranda. 2. The Proggs invaded Luosh and wreaked massive destruction. 3. You killed half the NPCs in Eubric. Oh, and Wren was there, too. I fear I won't be able to one-up number 2 by December, unfortunately. Edited November 12, 2013 by Endgame Quote
Pyrovisionary Posted November 12, 2013 Posted November 12, 2013 I like the idea of a secret Santa. Quote
CMP Posted November 12, 2013 Posted November 12, 2013 1. Haroka returned and terrorized Miranda. 2. The Proggs invaded Luosh and wreaked massive destruction. 3. You killed half the NPCs in Eubric. Oh, and Wren was there, too. Ah. Well, here's my 2013 Grogmas forecast. 1. The Second Orcish Invasion. 2. Proggs massacre invading humans and eternal cripple their relationship with humanity. 3. I kill Byblos. I mean, demons. Looks like we're forming traditions. Quote
Endgame Posted November 12, 2013 Posted November 12, 2013 2. Proggs massacre invading humans and eternal cripple their relationship with humanity. I'm not letting them off that easy. Quote
UsernameMDM Posted November 12, 2013 Posted November 12, 2013 (edited) Does anybody have any wishes or suggestions for this year's Grogmas Event? Grogmas gifts galore! What about a Grogmas theme Mafia game? Heroica Hall with Grogmas decorations. Edited November 12, 2013 by UsernameMDM Quote
Palathadric Posted November 12, 2013 Posted November 12, 2013 Ooh, can I be vig. I so want to kill off some of the obvious scum. Quote
Pandora Posted November 12, 2013 Posted November 12, 2013 Does anybody have any wishes or suggestions for this year's Grogmas Event? Presents! Lots of presents. Nyx would definitely agree. Other than that, your surprises are cool. Yup, Nyx is officially the most powerful player character in the game. If she upgrades her Healing Staff instead of her other weapons, she's golden. (Granted, she'll still be taking Damage and Special Damage, but she'd auto self-heal if she got a SHIELD.) Fortunately it's balanced completely by her ability to just die at any given moment, and her near-inability to actually roll a Shield. What was so horrible about it? There was that hard floor that hit us a lot. Quote
Palathadric Posted November 12, 2013 Posted November 12, 2013 What was so horrible about it? Other than the Yeti Fur Coat? Now I know why Dragonfire created a yeti character. Quote
CMP Posted November 12, 2013 Posted November 12, 2013 There was that hard floor that hit us a lot. It's been months and I'm still processing how exactly how that happened. Quote
Endgame Posted November 12, 2013 Posted November 12, 2013 It was recently scrubbed and was still slippery, that's all. Quote
CMP Posted November 12, 2013 Posted November 12, 2013 It was recently scrubbed and was still slippery, that's all. Yes, we all know how just much mobility is important when you're fighting floors. They're pretty quick little bastards. Quote
Sandy Posted November 12, 2013 Author Posted November 12, 2013 Yup, Nyx is officially the most powerful player character in the game. If she upgrades her Healing Staff instead of her other weapons, she's golden. (Granted, she'll still be taking Damage and Special Damage, but she'd auto self-heal if she got a SHIELD.) Having 1/6 chance of hitting enemies with a random element doesn't seem all that powerful to me... Quote
Scubacarrot Posted November 12, 2013 Posted November 12, 2013 Secret Santa as in everyone that wants to participate designs one piece of either existing (out of nowhere, not that you own) or new piece of loot and it gets distributed randomly? I'd be up for that. Especially since people can be dicks, and say give out a potion. It'd be pretty damn funny. Or is Secret Santa the one where you get assigned a random person you got to think up a present for. I wouldn't know, Santa Claus isn't really a thing here. Instead we have the completely non-racist (Although the UN would have you think otherwise, never listen to the UN) Sinterklaas. Quote

Participants are each randomly assigned a specific person they then have to design the piece of equipment for. Quote
Flipz Posted November 12, 2013 Posted November 12, 2013 Having 1/6 chance of hitting enemies with a random element doesn't seem all that powerful to me... She can cast all her spells through it (since weapon effects don't transfer to spells unless you're De'kra), and will heal the party on a SHIELD roll. In other words, she never has to upgrade any other weapon again. In other news, I'm down for Secret Santa. Grogmas gifts galore! What about a Grogmas theme Mafia game? Heroica Hall with Grogmas decorations. Ooh, can I be vig. I so want to kill off some of the obvious scum. NO. Just no. Quote

Palathadric Posted November 12, 2013 Posted November 12, 2013 NO. Just no. Oh, come on, you weren't even on my list! But we all actually know that you'll be the town that the scum convert and then sacrifice. Quote
Flipz Posted November 12, 2013 Posted November 12, 2013 I did NOT enjoy the last Heroica-themed Mafia game we had. I mean, kudos to Sandy for the hosting, and the story and mechanics were really interesting and fun to mess with, but the gameplay itself made me absolutely miserable. I don't want to miss yet another major event in Heroica history, but if it were to be another Mafia or Mafia-esque game, I'd have to, for my own personal health. Quote
Palathadric Posted November 12, 2013 Posted November 12, 2013 The last game was pretty insane, wasn't it? Quote
UsernameMDM Posted November 13, 2013 Posted November 13, 2013 (edited) I kinda like the idea that players sign up and either pick or are assigned another player to design a gift for. Of course all gifts would have to be approved by Sandy. Edited November 13, 2013 by UsernameMDM Quote
Flare Posted November 13, 2013 Posted November 13, 2013 Sorry for the double post, but I noticed that there is a typo in the Quest #91 pitch - I believe that they are called the "Ji Pei" not the "Je Pei" Quote
