Dannylonglegs Posted April 22, 2013 Posted April 22, 2013 My die rolls are inverted, I have six as a shield for all of my quests. Also, I'll try to get this battle with ASAP, 48ers! There is probably going to be a 1-2 day ending, plus you can mingle with any NPCs and shop (I know you guys have some black market deals! ) Alright, but it Sylph doesn't get a Glory Medal, he'll hold you personally accountable, for whatever that's worth. ~Insectoid Aristocrat Quote

Endgame Posted April 22, 2013 Posted April 22, 2013 (edited) My quest is not that bad - they have the True Final Boss down to his last limb. Just a matter of chipping away until he collapses. Edited April 22, 2013 by Endgame Quote

Exactly! And then we have to battle the Truly True Final Boss. And then we have to battle Endgame himself IRL. ~Insectoid Aristocrat Edited April 22, 2013 by Dannylonglegs Quote

Endgame Posted April 22, 2013 Posted April 22, 2013 (edited) Implying you aren't already fighting me? Albeit indirectly, but I am pulling the strings! Its only been two bosses in a row, give me a break. I originally did have a Mythrogg battle planned for 48, but I didn't like it... So I took The Regret's boss and added a phase 2.

Brickdoctor Posted April 22, 2013 Posted April 22, 2013 Figs are generally the very first thing I start with for a quest, they definitely help establish the tone of a setting I feel and can even take a story in a whole new unexpected direction. I start doing 'figs around the time I start drafting an outline, but they don't usually change anything in the storyline. Usually the most they'll change is a race or a gender based on what looks cool. Maybe a slight change to possible backstory or the addition if a minor supporting NPC, but nothing major. The exception would be figbarf results that I don't end up using in the quest or build while not developing a quest; those can influence the development of future quests if I like the combination so much that I want to work it into a quest as a major character. (Sort of like Luke and Knyghton; they were originally one-time-use NPCs for support in battle, and I liked their combinations and interactions with players enough that I brought them back for Quest 31.) My die rolls are inverted, I have six as a shield for all of my quests. That's the way it's usually done in tabletop RPGs, I think, with the higher number being better. I have the lower number being better for Heroica because the die results are already numbered that way in the class sheets. Quote

I have the lower number being better for Heroica because the die results are already numbered that way in the class sheets. It's because damage is usually also calculated with the same rolls. Here, it doesn't matter. Edited April 22, 2013 by Scubacarrot Quote
Rumble Strike Posted April 22, 2013 Posted April 22, 2013 *SLIP* and Tarn goes down! Had two tries at getting down a flight of stairs and couldn't manage it! What a hero Quote
Endgame Posted April 22, 2013 Posted April 22, 2013 (edited) The Regret is a way better final foe, anyway. He holds all the cards, has set up (successful!) gambits that have spanned milleniums, and is the embodiment of hatred itself. Mythrogg didn't like the way Olegaia was heading, so he just said "Screw it" and vanished. Edited April 22, 2013 by Endgame Quote
Scorpiox Posted April 22, 2013 Posted April 22, 2013 Sylph takes the Red pill. Isn't that the one that makes you forget? Quote

Scorpiox Posted April 22, 2013 Posted April 22, 2013 No. Aww, don't be so hard on me. I haven't seen The Matrix since the horrendous failure that was Revolutions. Quote
Brickdoctor Posted April 22, 2013 Posted April 22, 2013 Sylph takes the Red pill. Isn't that the one that makes you forget? No. In Heroica, it makes your Power increase by one. Quote
Scorpiox Posted April 22, 2013 Posted April 22, 2013 In Heroica, it makes your Power increase by one. If only the Golden Pill did the same... Quote
Scubacarrot Posted April 22, 2013 Posted April 22, 2013 Aww, don't be so hard on me. I haven't seen The Matrix since the horrendous failure that was Revolutions. Not being hard on you, but you were wrong. Quote
Endgame Posted April 22, 2013 Posted April 22, 2013 I have yet to see a single Matrix, Indiana Jones, Lord Of the Rings (Saw the hobbit, though!), or Star Wars movie in their entirety. ...Don't hurt me. Quote

Well, if you have hanged out on the internet enough, you know the plots and characters of every one of those by heart. Quote
Zepher Posted April 22, 2013 Posted April 22, 2013 To each their own! Though if you're interested in stories and story telling, then you should see them. They are important. Star Wars and LoTR most of all. Quote
Scubacarrot Posted April 22, 2013 Posted April 22, 2013 Masked, Harlots are unable to use Sticky Gloves. Also, they don't make that much gold, the number of enemies remaining is probably always going to be under 10, so you're looking at a long time before you get your gold out of them. Quote
Endgame Posted April 22, 2013 Posted April 22, 2013 (edited) Well, if you have hanged out on the internet enough, you know the plots and characters of every one of those by heart. This is correct - I've essentially "watched" these movies over the course of several years. I actually read the Lord Of The Rings books.. and have the boxed set right next to me as I type.
