Heroica RPG - Quest #30: Ambassadors to Dastan

[Rumble Strike]

"We fight alongside each other once again!" said Tarn to Phil as he slotted his Remedy into the hollow blade of his axe.

"What ever happens this day it has been an honour to battle by your side."

[Tanma]

IC: De'kra winced as pain struck into him. "I suffer great damage, so I think I will drink potion. This alright and rest of group? I am sorry about it, but I not able to stand much longer."

[Fugazi]

Galen waits for the enemy to move, while applying venom to the blade of his throwing dagger.

OOC: Would it be possible for a party to use a smoke bomb to withdraw from a fight to a different room while avoiding free hits? Or would the use of a smoke bomb definitively remove those players from combat like in normal fights?

[Chromeknight]

Hurt again Xander?

Nerwen smiles at him. Knowing the difficulty in healing the barbarian's hurts, Nerwen steps up to him and swings a punch at his nose, she pulls the punch, opening her mouth to chant the words which focus her healing. In this way Nerwen heals Xander.

Denerii chirps,

Looking to start a nest?

And winks at Xander before drawing her stone knife and getting in close to stab at the traitorous triarch.

Denerii attacks Emperor Emeraldo from the front row with her stone knife.

[Capt.JohnPaul]

Alexandre waits right behind the doorway. He stays put.

Knyghton Stays put.

[Professor Flitwick]

"I'll attack Chimera Guard D, from the front row with my Sabre!"

William, noting the Mages advice, alters his pantomime.

"Mr. Harkenshire will attack Chimera Guard A and Chimera Guard B from the back row, with his Repeating Crossbow!"

[posades]

OOC: Hey QM's have you been taking off poison damage these past few rounds on the imperial guards? It doesn't seem like it from my calculations, though my calculations could be wrong.

Xander smiles sheepishly at Denerii before tacitly thanking Nerwen. He hoped she would be successful this coming round, for he knew he was stepping into danger by attacking elite archer B from the front row with his poisoned club.

[Dharkan]

Attacking Imperial Guard D from front row.

Attacking Imperial Guard D from front row.

[Zepher]

OOC: Would it be possible for a party to use a smoke bomb to withdraw from a fight to a different room while avoiding free hits? Or would the use of a smoke bomb definitively remove those players from combat like in normal fights?

Creative and logical. I'd say that would be an okay strategy to me!

[JimBee]

OOC: @posades: Yes, I forgot this round, will fix it. Also, WBD, fixed Isabella's lucky roll.

[Pandora]

Nyx glances around the ornate furniture and architecture of Emperor Alandri's quarters, and also glances around her allies as they make their preparations. She can hear the enemies outside, but their movements are not yet clear to her. With nothing left to do but wait, she leans against the back wall, eyeing the doorway, slips off her black leather gloves and works on filing her nails.

[Xarrzan]

Xander moved too quickly in his attack for Sarick to land his healing staff. Once he saw that Nerwen was back to healing he relaxed. 'Her miracles will help us all,' he thought. Sarick then attacked Elite Archer C from the back row with frost magic.

Sarick absently noticed that at least one of the archers smiled on his slide down the stiars...yet the archer was still intent on killing him.

[Zepher]

OoC: Will update in about 5 hours! WBD, still waiting on a battle order.

[Flipz]

OOC: Does Roland's Decieve special ignore row and/or SP? For future reference.

"Sir Cronk, if my Blinding of Blackenord works, next Round I will use my Mead on you, we could use the extra strength."

[JimBee]

OOC: Does Roland's Decieve special ignore row and/or SP? For future reference.

OOC: If it doesn't state otherwise, then you assume that it doesn't ignore row/SP.

[CMP]

"Wait, put Cronk first, I think he needs to take a free hit or two... Ah, wait, nevermind, William's attacking."

Edited July 27, 2012 by CallMePie

[CorneliusMurdock]

"Sir Cronk, if my Blinding of Blackenord works, next Round I will use my Mead on you, we could use the extra strength."

Cronk is sorry but Cronk cannot allow it. Cronk's body is temple. Cronk does not drink anymore.

OOC: I know it would help us, Flipz, but it's a character choice I made a while back and I think I'll have to stick to it. If you really want to try to force it down Cronk's throat, don't expect Cronk to be grateful later.

The heroes in the throne room and Alandri's Wing brace themselves as the Lion Knights split up and bear down on both of them. Cronk and Thothwick smash Chimera Guards, while William takes one down before he is crushed under the claws of the mechanical beasts. Arthur fires a quick spell that rams into Blackenord's eyes. He stumbles backwards, eyelids closed. Meanwhile, in Emerlado's Wing, the battle heats up. Denerri narrowly misses a swing from the Emperor, while the rest of the team rams up against the Emperor's Archers. They are repelled by the remainder of the force, who slice and hack at them.

Atramor bites his lip as he notices the small army that's headed towards the northmost group, but braces himself mostly for the incoming Rogue Lion Commander attack.

"Emperor, Nikolai, I suggest you move into one of the rooms on the left. There's going to be one more knight than we can handle, but I'm sure we'll be able to prevent either of you being taken if you're not in the throne room itself. Arthur, I think you should help out the western defenders with Alandri, you'll be more effective against humanoids anyway and you've taken Blackenord out of commision. It's more than enough time for Cronk, Thothwick and De'kra to finish his guards."

Does any effect prevent an enemy from moving rooms?

[Brickdoctor]

Does any effect prevent an enemy from moving rooms?

QM Note:

Of the effects that you can inflict, the Stunned effect would, as a result of the enemy losing his Turn, and, of course, the Knocked Out effect would.

"De'kra, you have a Phoenix Essence, right? Now would be an excellent time to use it, we need William's ability to attack two enemies at once. It's your call, though. You can ignore Blackenord, since he can't dish out a Free Hit."

Arthur hear's Atramor's advice ring in his brain. "You mean the enemies taking out Emperor Roland? Aye, That'll do fine, I'll move West now. Someone had better keep an eye to the East, though, in case those Chaos Beasts, Chimaera Guards, and XX suddenly decide to head upstairs."

QM Note:

Of the effects that you can inflict, the Stunned effect would, as a result of the enemy losing his Turn, and, of course, the Knocked Out effect would.

OOC: What about the Sleep-effect?

[Brickdoctor]

OOC: What about the Sleep-effect?

QM Note:

Yes, that would work, as the enemy loses Turns as it would if it were Stunned.

[CMP]

"I have no doubt that's exactly where they're going, Arthur, but I don't think we can deal with 'em until they already have Ella. Also, Alexandre, I recommend hanging in the back row, the most damage they could currently do to there you is 1, I believe."

So...what happens if the enemy holding an NPC is knocked out? Could another enemy just pick them up the next round? Also, it takes a round to pick them up, right?

Here's what I'm currently under the impression would happen:

XX has Ella and 2 Chimera Guards in the corridor, along with Cronk.

Round 1: Cronk attacks XX. Chimera Guards A and B get free hits.

Skip several rounds.

Round 20: Cronk knocks out XX, causing him to drop Ella. Chimera Guards A and B get free hits.

Round 21: Cronk attacks Chimera Guard A. Chimera Guard B picks up Ella.

Round 22: Cronk attacks Chimera Guard A. Chimera Guard B runs off.

What I fear is something like this:

Round 20: Cronk knocks out XX, causing him to drop Ella. Chimera Guard A get a free hit. Chimera Guard B picks up Ella and runs off.

The first scenario is what would happen.
