Re: Against the Mageguild

In reply to Virgilio Hohlfeld (msg # 791):

despite the lightning strike and the bolt to the head, the yellow robes and mounts remain unstunned, although spells are disrupted.  they also keep the horses under control.


the hasted orangerobes stabs twice at Aregis, and does so critically on the second strike, gravely injuring him, and blocks one of Aegis smashes with his mace, but not the second one.

[Private to Narrator: Aegis takes 9 pts,  the orange 3, the yellows 4 each from lightning and one takes 6 to the head]

Re: Against the Mageguild

Dne leaves the road, goes to Reanna, and starts casting Lightning Missiles on her.  (This takes him beneath one-third of his fatigue points.). The spell takes three seconds to cast.

Reanna is impressed...she has not seen anyone take a bodkin bolt to the head and keep fighting! She recocks her crossbow and reloads...

[Private to GM: Rolled a 4 for fast draw...least useful crit ever!]

In reply to Narrator (msg # 798):

Impressive, don't get me wrong, I am not disputing...4x4=16 hp of damage to the head and still standing, though must have been massive shock. Not denying it is possible, but it is impressive! Hence, she is impressed! But reloading quickly...(natural 4 on fast draw should help!)

The prisoner still hasn't given up.  He once more rolls his knees under himself.

Re: Against the Mageguild

In reply to Narrator (msg # 801):

Right. So Dilandua is down, Aegir is badly injured, Reanna reloading, Dne out of juice and putting lightning into Reanna's bolts, Alice?

Against us we have two yellow robes standing either side of Dilandua and fighting Aegir, one with a bolt through the head that would have now disappeared, leaving a bleeding hole, one orange robe at the back with a prisoner, and four swordsmen that have ditched their crossbows.

Have I missed anything?

In reply to Reanna Draegan (msg # 802):

the Orange that injured Aegis is wounded, the prisoner is alone, there are three uninjured swordsmen; you got one, and Aegis crippled two.

Alice is reloading, and Aegis isnt down.

Re: Against the Mageguild

In reply to Narrator (msg # 804):

Ah, OK, Alice and Reanna are both reloading. Did Alice miss?

Dne has cast lightning missiles and Aegis is injured and facing three red and one orange opponents. Two yellow robes standing either side of Dilandua, who is down. So we are waiting on Aegis or is it next turn, and Reanna and Dne act again?

When it is Reanna's turn again, she will reload and aim in one fluid motion at the other yellow robe, suggesting that Alice fire at the orange robe, then try to help Aegis.

[Private to GM: Rolled 6 under Fast Draw(Ammo) skill to reload.]

Aegis swings twice, striking the orange opponent  both times, and fails to block a swordthrust, but it merely glances off of his armor.

Re: Against the Mageguild

In reply to Aegis (msg # 806):

Reanna braces and fires at the nearest Yellow robes, suggesting Alice target the injured one, before assisting Aegis.

[Private to GM: Rolled badly this time. Braced, determined if there are no missile weapons or spells visible (none mentioned, but...) so skill 16+4(acc)+1 braced+1 Determined -3 target= 19, rolled 4 under, Not sure what range penalty still applies. Targeted attack, skull, uninjured yellow robe.]

Re: Against the Mageguild

Once more the prisoner attempts to rise from knees to feet (with his hands and feet still manacled).  Once more he wobbles, overbalances, and falls onto his side.

[Private to GM: 08:27, Today: Virgilio Hohlfeld rolled 13 using 3d6.  DX (11) to stand from kneeling with hands and feet bound.]

Reanna just misses.

Alice shoots and strikes the injured one, but it looks like the bolt is stuck in the armor.

"Alice, perhaps you cock them and I will shoot...using my bodkin bolts."

She recocks her crossbow again.

How plausible is it for Alice to heal Aegis and return, safely?

Dne tries to position himself in such a way that the beneficiary of his spell is between himself and the would-be attackers.
