Re: Thoughts

Thunderbird:
"Hold on guys, there was a project that I need to undertake that I was going to do for Aldiss next time we were back here. It will only take about an hour or so, unless they have a thousand of them. Where are the N-cells that needed to be recharged Aldiss?" Thunderbird went back and asked.

ooc:Sorry, I thought I took care of that. Had to dig through the posts to find out why Aldiss was giving him the stink eye. It was almost two years real time that it was posted.

No probs Thunderbird, time certainly flies :) You have the cells with you Thunderbird, but it will take you a day or two to charge them all. I am assuming you don't want to spend that time now and moving the action on for now...

Re: Thoughts

If there are no other suggestions, looks like Bedlam needs to be the decider :)

Bedlam Jones:
"Ok," the giant sighs. "Arcus, T-bird, which of the chimneys was the largest? Were any of them big enough for Crinkles and me to climb down?"

Just to be clear, the other two rooftop access points you saw on adjacent buildings are open trapdoors rather than chimneys.

Re: Thoughts

Thunderbird, you can't tell if a creature or a machine welded the plates, and find no holes.

Crinkles, yes big enough for you and Bedlam.

Re: Thoughts

Climbing up to the roof is an Athletics DC20 roll, unless someone has some rope. Then one of the fliers can secure it and everyone can climb, no roll required.

Re: Thoughts

Thunderbird, the hinges are on the other side.

Bedlam, you can make the attempt with a Cha roll DC 25. However, bear in mind if you succeed the Ripper will know where you are too, and if you fail by five or more the Ripper will know where you are anyway.

Re: Thoughts

So Thunderbird and Arcus will be watching the roof exits while you smash down the door, right?

Re: Thoughts

Before you enter the sewer, what are you doing for light??

BTW even the shortest party member can keep their head above water, and the current is flowing in direction Bedlam last sensed the Reaper.

Re: Thoughts

BTW Bedlam, the grating is secured with a catch but it's not locked. Can't be opened from below in normal circumstances. Good job not all of you are normal, hint, hint!

Re: Thoughts

Apols, should be an Athletic/Acrobatic check, not Str. So Rose, that puts you on 18. Plus I will give you a +2 circumstances bonus for your creeping roots, so you made it to the top. Please edit your post.

Re: Thoughts

Bedlam, just noticed you used a standard action to stand up, I think we can skip that, will assume you were on your feet after climbing up. Feel free to add another move or action. If I don't hear back in 24 hours will assume a move. Then I will update the round.

Re: Thoughts

Some minor discussion which may or may not be pertinent to current situation.

The Mind Coercer Expert Power Your Thoughts Are My Thoughts (hereafter referred to as YTAMY)
As defined:
  Once per Encounter, Psi, Psychic
  Standard Action
  Range: 10
  Target: 1 Creature
  Effect: CH mod psychic damage; slide target equal to its speed; target makes basic attack vs creature of choice w/ +4 attack, +4 damage


This essentially grants the Coercer control of the target for a move action and a standard action (with bonus to the standard attack action).

Since the target can make a double move by substituting a move action for its standard action, would it make sense to say the Coercer can also use the standard action granted by YTAMY for a second move action instead of an attack?

Perhaps, since the YTAMY standard action has a bonus, replacing it with a move action could even be a Run (+2 spaces, grants combat advantage)?

Re: Thoughts

In general I would say no, as the flavour of the power seems to be "confuse your enemy so he attacks someone else".  However, in the circumstances, and considering your psychic link with the Ripper, I will say yes. So you get one attack and everyone else gets one more. Good luck!

"And if you don't mind saying, where are the hoops? I do not recall having seen badders in the guard before."


Doh! I think senility is setting in, keep messing up all the old Gamma World names :) It is Hoops. Editing shortly, update at the weekend

Re: Thoughts

Folks, the list of mutations from the WoTC site I linked to in the Mutations thread is gone :(

link to a message in this game

My google fu is not strong enough to find a list. Anyone got any ideas? Does anyone own a physical copy of the all mutation cards? They made them collectible, right, so probably not :(

Re: Thoughts

Sorry, can't help you. The cards that came with the game were broken into 40 Alpha (1-40) and 40 Omega (41-80) with 1 booster pack. The collectables were 1-120
