Brickdoctor Posted January 11, 2012 Author Posted January 11, 2012 Results of Round Two of the Battle for Bric'Bay Fort: Xander Unth'or moves to the South-West Wall. >Arthur Justus Regulus VII and Isabella del Toboso (Catapult) vs. Brobric Scout A - Damage Spag Bitterstalk moves to the North-East Tower. >Alexandre le Chevalier vs. Brobric Elven Archer - Special Damage Althior Emorith drenches the forest in water. Arasmyth RuGard does nothing William Harkenshire does nothing All Free Hits fail as all non-targeted enemies have melee weapons, not ranged weapons. As the battle and the fire continue to rage, Xander, you continue your run towards the action, passing through the South-West Wall. Arthur and Isabella, you miss your mark, but, thankfully, your target did not possess a ranged weapon, and thus could not deal any Damage. Spag, now Encouraged, you move to the North-East Tower, while Alexandre, you're blinded by the light of the flames and miss badly. The elven archer easily dodges before firing a grappling hook over the top of the West Wall. Althior, with a tremendous groan, you expend all your Ether (17), creating a massive wall of water that surges out of the river and into the forest. The fire is put out and all the elves are swept off their feet by the powerful current, losing 1 Health each. Arasmyth and William, you hold your positions. The elves move towards the rope, and the battle continues...

All of you, choose your targets and the row you want to fight in. Also mention if you want to try to flee, move, heal, or cast a magic spell, or if you want to use an item instead of attacking. Any enemy not targeted will get a Free Hit on the party after everyone have acted. After the end of the second Round, your positions are as shown below: "Sir, the Lead Scout has scaled the West Wall! He will head towards the North Tower. The Lion Crossbowmen (Level 2) there aren't strong enough to engage in melee combat! Should they retreat?" QM Note: In case anyone's wondering about Althior's spell, I decided to treat it like he was removing a very large obstacle. Since that's a power Mages normally wield outside of battle, I decided it shouldn't majorly hurt enemies the way a Magic Burst would. (plus, using a Magic Burst is determined by a die roll) The elves only lost 1 Health because I decided all the water had to go somewhere, so the elves lost Health for being in the wrong place at the wrong time.
Kenghis Ghan Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 Spag does the same as last time, and moves closer to the elves... again. OOC: I'll be able to attack the elves with my halberd when I get close enough to them, right?
Capt.JohnPaul Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 "Sir, the Lead Scout has scaled the West Wall! He will head towards the North Tower. The Lion Crossbowmen (Level 2) there aren't strong enough to engage in melee combat! Should they retreat?" "The wall is scaled!" Alex draws his sword and cuts the Elf Lead Scout from the front row. (If that's possible in 1 turn, or if it requires 2 turns.)
Brickdoctor Posted January 11, 2012 Author Posted January 11, 2012 OOC: I'll be able to attack the elves with my halberd when I get close enough to them, right? QM Note:Yes. "The wall is scaled!" Alex draws his sword and cuts the Elf Lead Scout from the front row. (If that's possible in 1 turn, or if it requires 2 turns.) QM Note:You decided to position yourself inside the wall, remember? The Lead Scout is on top of the wall. If you want to attack him, the fastest way is to take two Turns to go to the North Tower and ascend one level, after which, if the elf is still close enough, you can attack on the third Turn.
Fred Daniel Yam Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 "I'll hold the South Wall til I die."
Flipz Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 "Spast!" Arthur calls out to Isabella, "Load the catapult with small stones and attack Scout A! Hurry!" Arthur thwacks finnegan upside the head. "Come ON, Finnegan, I need orders from Althior. After this Round, do I keep manning the catapult or should I attack the lead scout with my Ice magic??" He then helps Isabella with the catapult again.
K-Nut Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 "I just need to, uh, you know, just take uh, you know, yeah..." Althior drops, clearly exhausted from his last spell. "Oh thank god he made me Lieutenant! Archers, retreat! Same Battle order as well!" He then grabs Althior's Grand Tonic out of his pack, "Oh god..." He starts pouring it in to Althior's mouth. "Arthur, you just improvise, get ready for the scout next round, okay?" OOC: The joy of two characters!
Capt.JohnPaul Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 QM Note: Yes. QM Note: You decided to position yourself inside the wall, remember? The Lead Scout is on top of the wall. If you want to attack him, the fastest way is to take two Turns to go to the North Tower and ascend one level, after which, if the elf is still close enough, you can attack on the third Turn. Oh, yes. Though I thought K-nut put me on top- canceling that. I'll take my 3 turns to move to the elf with my crossbow.
Dharkan Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 "Spast!" Arthur calls out to Isabella, "Load the catapult with small stones and attack Scout A! Hurry!" Arthur thwacks finnegan upside the head. "Come ON, Finnegan, I need orders from Althior. After this Round, do I keep manning the catapult or should I attack the lead scout with my Ice magic??" He then helps Isabella with the catapult again. "I'm on it! A ye it's done, firing it at will!" OOC: Sorry for my kind of afk time to time, it is my final exam period.
Kadabra Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 OOC: Can I use my magic to attack from on top of the North Wall (Since he's o top of the North Tower?) IF so... IC: Arasmyth turns as he hears the metallic clang of a grappling hook. He peers to the top of the Tower adjacent and summons a Lightning bolt with his Topaz to strike the invader.
Brickdoctor Posted January 11, 2012 Author Posted January 11, 2012 OOC: Can I use my magic to attack from on top of the North Wall (Since he's o top of the North Tower?) IF so... QM Note:I hadn't anticipated this because I thought the heroes would be in one place, but yes, you may. You have a realistically clear line of sight and you're a ranged class.
K-Nut Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 Oh, yes. Though I thought K-nut put me on top- canceling that. I'll take my 3 turns to move to the elf with my crossbow. "Don't waste your time! We still have more elves to worry about! Oh Finnegan, what's in this?!" With that, Althior passes out again. "Damn it! That was dragon's blood. Althior really has to label these things! Why does he even have that in the first place?"
Capt.JohnPaul Posted January 11, 2012 Posted January 11, 2012 "Don't waste your time! We still have more elves to worry about! [/color] I don't think I'd be able to hear. The chevalier suddenly realizes that it would be foolish to waste 3 turns. He changes his mind and shoots the Brobric Elven Scout A from the back row.

The battle is beginning to heat up, Althior, as you order the two Crossbowmen out of the fight. Xander, you sprint through the South-West Tower, ready to attack the elves on the ground on your next Turn. Arthur and Isabella, you fire once more, and the stones once again find their mark, Hitting Scout A at 2 Damage and the rest of the enemies still on the ground at 1 Damage. Spag, you pass through the North Wall on your way to the battle, while, Alexandre, your target dives out of the way of your shot. Althior, you cry out in surprise as Finnegan force-feeds you a Grand Tonic, restoring 15 of your Ether. Arasmyth, lightning crackles in your palm as you blast the Lead Scout at 15 Lightning Elemental Damage. You watch with satisfaction as the elf is sent flying over the wall to his death. William, ever patient, you hold your position. The elves are weakening, but they continue to move towards the rope. The battle continues...

Kenghis Ghan Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 Spag goes to the north tower in order to give the Brobric Scout a whoopin'.
Fred Daniel Yam Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 OOC: Does everyone gain a level/ half a level after 1 wave? IC: "I shall stay here."
Brickdoctor Posted January 12, 2012 Author Posted January 12, 2012 OOC: Does everyone gain a level/ half a level after 1 wave? QM Note:Everyone does gain XP after each wave. (except those Knocked Out, of course)
Fred Daniel Yam Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 "Everyone can't move everywhere! If more than 2 walls are scaled, then what? Some of us have to stay."
K-Nut Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 Althior feels a bit better than before, but in all his time as a mage, he'd never seen his Ether go that fast. "Somebody see if they can cut down that rope!" Althior says as he takes Spag's position on the North Wall.
Capt.JohnPaul Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 "Everyone can't move everywhere! If more than 2 walls are scaled, then what? Some of us have to stay." "Don't worry, sir! I've got that covered and will make sure that won't happen!" Alex takes aim from the back row at the Elven Archer. He holds his breath for a +3 bonus on the dice roll.
posades Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 "Don't worry, sir! I've got that covered and will make sure that won't happen!" Alex takes aim from the back row at the Elven Archer. He holds his breath for a +3 bonus on the dice roll. Xander notices from the corner of his eye that Alex has his aim towards the elven archer. "Alex, I will take care of the archer and his grappling hook; you should take aim at one of the other targets so they will not have a free hit on me," Xander exclaims from the ground. He then readies an attack on the Brobric Elven Archer from the front row.
Kadabra Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 Arasmyth grins in satisfaction as the screaming elf falls to his doom. The battle was heating up now - he saw Althior rush past him towards the North Tower. He smiled grimly at the Party Leader and held his position in anticipation of more attacks.
Flipz Posted January 12, 2012 Posted January 12, 2012 Arthur growls; why is it that he and Isabella can only hit with their weakest ammunition? Calling out as loudly as he can, he yells to Xander, "Xander! The archer can't use a grappling hook on a Free Hit! Everyone target the other Elves, we'll deal with him later." Arthur yells to Spag as he passes, "Spag, grab a torch from the wall to burn that rope!" Seeing that the others were waiting for him, he again loads the catapult with small stones and works with Isabella to change their target to the Scout B.
