Re:  Out of Character Board

Sorry to nitpick, but Willa moved to square Y14 before she attacked.

I am far to used to Drex moving himself.  >>  I'm sorry for the mistake.

Its fine, leave it as it is now since you have put so much effort in to it.  I will move WIlla in the future, if it is easier :)

Re:  Out of Character Board

Remember Phelan is still blind, so you should probably take a free action to tell if you need healing. He won't have any idea otherwise.

Re:  Out of Character Board

Slightly Random update to the Ancerenth Character Creation book.

In the Sophonts Section, there is now a height comparison chart.

Ah okay.  Thanks, then :)

Does Iron Jubei get to make an attack of opportunity against fs1 as it moves past him?

EDIT: Willa is stealing all the good rolls >.<

Re:  Out of Character Board


He should have, yeah. Jubei got blinded before the move happened, but that doesn't prevent Opportunity Attacks. Dazed does that however, but he got that condition from fsI.
How does "total concealment" affect that however?

Re:  Out of Character Board

You get a -5 as it's a melee attack. Total concealment basically grants that penalty to melee and ranged attacks. Bursts and blasts are not affected due to being technically aoe.

Re:  Out of Character Board

Shall I just roll for that in response to that then now? :| Like as an immediate interrupt, or would it be too late for that now?

Thanks for the Skill addition Jubei.

@Jubei:  Fleeting Shadow I, at no point, passes through Jubei's threatened area.  The shadows have Phasing - meaning they can move through solid bits of terrain.

Re:  Out of Character Board

@Author: Can you please explain how the HP Changes column on the Damage Tracker works. I believe I'm using it incorrectly because after I read your note on it.

Re:  Out of Character Board

Each column in HP Changes is intended to be used as a per round indicator.  So when a round ends your record how much HP you gained or lost (gains being represented a -##).

On another note.  Because you guys are moving after the enemies I think it would be easier if I handled your opportunity attacks in around.

Re:  Out of Character Board

I've updated the Character Sheet Template on the GREAT BIG BOOK OF ALL THE THINGS!(tm) to be 1. a bit spiffier and 2. to have a basic melee and basic range attack section, twill save me time when something or other charms ya into attacking your buds.

Re:  Out of Character Board

Some things I would like to mention:

1 - Drex is suicidal!  He loves charging off into the fray.

2 - @Author: I think it is really cool the way you slowly reveal details about enemy defences as we attack them :)

3 - Saving throws are hard O.o

On a more important note:

@Author - The effect that Willa was under, reducing damage dealt by 1.  It occurred to me that it might effect every damage roll she made in the turn.  I only applied it to one.  If so her damage should be:

8 radiant (primary dire radiance attack)
5 untyped (curse)
6 radiant (secondary dire radiance attack if it triggers)*

*although that technically would trigger when FS1 moved closer to her, which would no longer be her turn...

Hmm, seems I love to over-think/complicate things >.< Sorry

Oh right!

@Author: If you're sticking to revealing defences based on successful attacks, remember Phelan succeeded in a 17 against Fortitude.

Re:  Out of Character Board

Thanks Willa!  Yes, saving throws are hard, its one of the few mechanics in 4th ed that I personally like alot because it doesn't ever scale up or down and you REALLY have to specialize in order to increase your own saving throw chances or decrease and enemy's.  On that subject, something I and Jubei discussed last night before I cast my consciousness into the Etheric Realm was this.  Conditions (ala blind, dazed, stunned, etc.) do not stack - just like how ongoing damage of the same type doesn't stack only the one with the highest value applies - instead the version with the greatest duration (save ends trumps end of next turn) applies or if it is part of an effect which produces two or more conditions with one (or more) matching your existing condition(s) applies in its stead.

As for the -1 to your next damage roll, I'd rule that it applies to the FIRST instance mentioned in your the power description.  Though I will say -1 to damage is a pretty crappy effect, if it was -3 or -5 that would be a bit more annoying.

I'm going to say its because he is stricken with hysteria, but he might have done the same thing if he wasn't. XP

But yes I was bargaining that those acolytes where range and not melee. Typical of our DM to through a monkey-wrench in tho the gears of conventionality... X3

The PHB1 however mentions that those penalties DO stack. If an attack incurs a penalty to damage or accuracy then the number will go higher each time it is applied. So getting hit thrice by the power that causes -1 damage will cause the next attack to deal 3 damage less.

Re:  Out of Character Board

Okay, its officially taking me WAY too long to make my posts for combat, not because it takes me long to decide on things and roll for them but because I have so many numbers to copy over between my pad (a word doc I write all my posts in before posting them here) and the googledoc.  So to solve this I will from now on only be monitoring the monsters numbers.  I'll leave it up to you guys to move yourselves at the end of your turns and to note down changes to yourself and the damage your deal to the monsters in the book.

Because I can't keep spending 2-3 hours doing just this ONE particular thing a day (the combat calculations).

Re:  Out of Character Board

Sure that seems fair.  You'll still have to check what we've done though, in case of special resistances and such that we don't know about :)
