Honestly, messy as it is that seems to be the best option. You'll probably have to step-by-step things.

If our illustrious Author is happy to let me split my turn up into separate posts and also happy to respond to each, sure that would probably be easier.  Also it might be better to use Eldritch blast instead of Dire Radiance.  I have +2 to hit with Dire Radiance, but the Sword Auto's Fort is 2 points higher than its reflex, so the roll to hit is actually the same.  The difference is that Eldritch blast has higher potential damage on the turn it hits, whereas dire radiance has better damage over time, if the target moves closer to Walla.

I'd recommend Eldritch Blast. We have no guarantee the sword auto will move toward Willa on its turn, plus better to try and take it out before it acts rather than during or after.

If you have a good reason then sure.  o3o

Re: OOC - General Chat 03

Well thanks to a series of awful rolls that was very anticlimactic and I am now out of anything useful I can do.

@Willa: I shall now channel my inner French GM "Such is life." blows smoke in your face.

It happens to us all.

Also don't mind my post, I figured I'd play up the humour a bit.

Re: OOC - General Chat 03

Not that it matters, but I'd like to revel in victory a little more and point out that Willa actually did 45 damage to the Sword Auto as I forgot the +3 from Magic Weapon!  Although you could argue that extra 3 belongs to Phelan, I guess :P

Re: OOC - General Chat 03

After the days that have gone by in this encounter and folks not posting the grace I've been giving out to you guys to take some time to post is now official spent, its dried up, its caput. From now on, I will strictly be enforcing the houserules in combat around Inaction.  From now on you will have approximately 24 hours to post your action in a round or else the Inaction rules will come into effect, if you do not have tactics written down on your character sheet in a clear and concise manner your character will take a Total Defence action on his turn and only respond with Attacks of Opportunity.  Are we clear?

Re: OOC - General Chat 03

Yes, sorry. I'll do better. :(

I've done some stats on the combat so far, if anyone cares:

Initiative: 24/4/17 to 25/4/17
Declaration that we got to go 1st: 27/4/17
1st round: 28/4/17 to 01/05/17
Enemy round: 3/5/17
2nd round: 3/5/17 to 6/5/17
Enemy Round: 8/15/17
3rd round: 8/5/147 to 10/5/17 (Phelan took Drex's turn on 10th)
Enemy Round: 11/5/17
4th Round: 12/5/17 to 13/5/17
Enemy Round: 13/5/17
5th Round: 13/5/17 to 15/5/17
Enemy Round: 16/5/17
6th Round: 16/5/17 to 18/5/17

6 Player Rounds and 5 Enemy Rounds in 22 days (27/4 to 19/5, includes 27th in the count)

Author took 2+2+1+0+1 = 7 days for 5 enemy turns = An average of 1.4 days per round

Adjusting the count for player days down by 3.  2 for the time author took 2 days and 1 for the day the author posted on 0 days, for fairness as people may not have expected our author to respond so quickly.

Leaving Players with 19 days for 6 rounds.  Or an average of 3.17 days per round.


EDIT:
Thinking about it this might be the wrong way to do things.  If we had posted within 24 hours each time it would have taken 11 days (5 for author, 6 for us).  SO I guess the player count should be 22-8 (if being generous with the author's 0 day post), meaning 6 rounds in 14 days, or an average of 2.33.  Still too long, of course.

Craig, are you a mathematician? Or do you just love math?  I'm really curious now.

Re: OOC - General Chat 03

I'm going to add the Fame and Fate Fortune tokens to our communal wealth section. If someone else already has, let me know.

This should bring the total to:
  • Wealth: 3
  • Fame: 11
  • Fortune: 17.5

Re: OOC - General Chat 03

I hadn't done anything with the wealth :)

Also, I have levelled Willa up to 4, taking +1 Charisma, +1 Intelligence and the Hidden Sniper Feat.

Oh and we're now dropping advantage/disadvantage, correct?  I think that's a good idea.  Willa would be super good at landing her spells if it stayed.

Leveled Jubei up, retrained History for Endurance, took Swift Recovery feat and + 1 to Charisma and Strength

And yeah, I think we wanted to drop it now and return back to normal combat advantage.

Jip, henceforth advantage goes poof.  Also don't forget to update the character thread.

Re: OOC - General Chat 03

Leveled up Ceba. Gained 5 HP, and increased Dex and Wis by +1 each.
New feat: Agile Hunter - When you score a critical hit with a melee
attack against the target of your Hunter’s Quarry, you
can shift as a free action, and the enemy takes a –2
penalty on attack rolls against you until the end of
your next turn.

Re: OOC - General Chat 03

I'm finished too.

+ 1 to Dexterity and wisdom and took the Power of Skill (Domain) feat. I'm only going to spend one healing surge. Just in case there is two of three more fights, that we can't avoid.

And I'm going to ask it here too: Am I correct to think, if I Pay the appropriate amount of tokens, Amare could transfigurate Drex's great axe into an execution axe? Like fortune, that he has the time and the necessary components to do it.

@Drex: Ask Phelan instead, Amare's grasp of magic is tenuous at best.  He's intelligent enough to figure it out but has absolutely no experience with it.  This was demonstrated by the Candle Lighting Spell incident back in Galdion.

Today's post is an example of what happens when one thing leads to another in rapid succession and I work with another player to have it all run somewhat seamlessly from the perspective of others.
