Heroica RPG - Unlimited Quest: Fields of Glory

[TheBoyWonder]

OOC:It is a great sword. The other drumstick is a mistake I believe.

"Pretzel and I will go first. He will target the battering ram as willAlexander, and I will dance with the wolf."

Romulus will attack the Direwolf from the front row with Combrys.

Battle Order:

Romulus

Pretzel

Alexander

Avalanche

[Wedge09]

QM Note: That earns you a frown on my behalf, since the quest is already underway. But I'll let it slide, this time.

I humbly beg your pardon, Sandy

I try a battle order, please correct me if I'm wrong:

Monk Pretzel - Battering Ram A

Romulus - Battering Ram B

Alexander - Battering Ram C

Avalanche - Silent Lamb A

Alexander attacks Battering Ram A.

[Dragonfire]

"I think we should go with Alexander's battle order: Pretzel takes free hits from Black Sheep A and Silent Lamb C, Romulus takes free hits from Black Sheep B and the Direwolf, Alexander takes a hit from Black Sheep C and I take one from Silent Lamb B. I'm not sure I could manage a free hit from a Black Sheep and damage from Silent Lamb A..."

[Palathadric]

I attack Battering Ram C from the Front Row with Dual Staff (Double)

Man, I've gone bonkers. Can't even post a single action right.

Sorry fellows, I got online early yesterday, so I missed Sandy's post.

[TheBoyWonder]

OOC: I really am not good at this party leader business, so if any one would like to take over, I welcome it.

"The Direwolf needs to go ASAP. I lack the health to take repeated hits, but okay. If I manage a ravage, I can potentially reduce the free hits."

Pretzel

Romulus

Alexander

Avalanche

Romulus attacks Battering Ram B, with Combrys from the front row.

Edited December 8, 2013 by TheBoyWonder

[Sandy]

OOC: Can you attack and throw a Bone in the same turn? If so, Avalanche also throws a bone to the Direwolf.

QM Note: No, you can only perform one action per turn. Attacking is one action, and so is using an item like a bone.

[Dragonfire]

Probable course of actions:

Pretzel vs Battering Ram C

Romulus vs Battering Ram B

Alexander vs Battering Ram A

Avalanche vs Silent Lamb A

Black Sheep A - Pretzel

Black Sheep B - Romulus

Black Sheep C - Alexander

Silent Lamb B - Avalanche

Silent Lamb C - Pretzel

Direwolf - Romulus

"Romulus, if you lack the health to receive a free hit from the Direwolf, put yourself first in the Battle Order and let Pretzel deal with the wolf."

OOC: OK, that's fine. Thanks for the heads up!

Avalanche attacks Silent Lamb A from the front row.

[TheBoyWonder]

"Get ready to pick me up If I go down."

[Dragonfire]

"Pretzel and I have Phoenix Essences- that won't be a problem. Just do the same for me if those darn sheep do me in."

[Palathadric]

Is Alexander currently favouring anything?

Suggested Battle Order:

>Alexander: Battering Ram A (Free Hits: 8 + 7 / 2 - 5 = 3)

Pretzel: Battering Ram C (Free Hits: 8 + 15 - 9 = 14)

Romulus: Battering Ram B (Free Hits: 8 - 8 = 0)

Avalanche: Silent Lamb A (Free Hits: 7)

No I'm not favouring anything, in case for this battle I favour beast

[Sandy]

QM Note: TheBoyWonder, why don't you try out the party leader position for a while instead of trying to give it away instantly? The Fields are a perfect chance to try your wings at it, since the battles are so simple.

No I'm not favouring anything, in case for this battle I favour beast

Sorry, but that's not how favouring works. You need to roll a Shield to be able to favour an enemy type. Please read the rules for the Hunter class again.

Results of Round One of the Sheep Meadow Battle:

Monk Pretzel (Dual Staff) vs. Battering Ram C (twice) - Meditate (Pretzel: +5 ether)

Romulus vs. Battering Ram B - Extra Critical Hit (Ram B: 124 health-(67x4=268 dmg)=0 health; Romulus: Combrys +1 WP)

>Alexander vs. Battering Ram A - Special Damage (Reckless Ram - Alexander: 32 health+5 SP-18 dmg=19 health+stunned)

Avalanche vs. Silent Lamb A - Extra Critical Hit (Lamb A: 88 health-23 dmg=65 health)

Black Sheep A + Silent Lamb C - Free Hit vs. Monk Pretzel (Pretzel: 44 health+9 SP-(8+7=15 dmg)=38 health)

Black Sheep B + Direwolf - Free Hit vs. Romulus (Romulus: 38 health+8 SP-(8+15=23 dmg)=23 health)

Black Sheep C - Free Hit vs. Alexander (Alexander: 19 health+5 SP-(8/2=4 dmg)=19 health)

Silent Lamb B - Free Hit vs. Avalanche (Avalanche: 16 health-7 dmg=9 health)

Monk Pretzel takes a moment to meditate. Romulus defeats one of the Battering Rams with a single strike, increasing Combrys' power by one temporarily. Alexander gets rammed over, becoming stunned. Avalanche gets a hit in. The sheep and the wolf among them retaliate, causing damage to each hero.

[TheBoyWonder]

We will fight using Avalanche's battle order:

Pretzel,

Romulus

Alexander

Avalanche

[Dragonfire]

OOC: If I am not there for the next round after this one, then Avalanche will continue to attack the Silent Lamb with the lowest health and would like to take Free Hits from Silent Lambs if possible; if not, then from black sheep.

[Palathadric]

"I am attacking from the front until I fight the Direwolf."

" 'Furry thing' is not my name or species. Call me Avalanche or yeti."

"Eh? Two furries? What should I call you two? Browny and Bluey!"

Sandy, I believe I should still have 19 GP from my last stint in the Fields.

Edited December 8, 2013 by Palathadric

[Sandy]

Alexander has 5 defense, so shouldn't have been damaged from free hit.

QM Note: Thanks for noticing, it's fixed now.

Results of Round Two of the Sheep Meadow Battle:

Monk Pretzel (Dual Staff) vs. Battering Ram C (twice) - Critical Hit (Ram C: 124 health-(44x2=88+88=176 dmg)=0 health)
