FINISH OFF THE BODYGUARD SPEARMEN! FINISH THEM!

Also, use the remainder to Start killing the warriors!

[Swodaems]

Um Swod, are you sure you want to attack Warriors? They have BODYGUARD Spearmen next to them, I think we should be focusing those first.

FINISH OFF THE BODYGUARD SPEARMEN! FINISH THEM!

Also, use the remainder to Start killing the warriors!

Okay, we'll do the spearmen first.

The 3 spearmen are probably guarding the 3 warriors that only have +1 from dance fighting.

We can get those 3 using the archers that get new actions at phase 10 (the 9 Skarchers and 4 of the garrison archers.). I'd like to use the lucky-streaked garrison archer on a warrior, so we'll set him aside. The remaining archers can be split evenly into 3 groups of 1 garrison archer and 3 skeles. These groups each fire on one spearman.

The warriors at the gate can breach the gate this round, but they will likely need 3 attacks at 20 com do it. (MarbitChow, WE11, WE12, and WE13 are all shown as not having a move left to spend. Did they use it up just to change from one position that is adjacent to the gate to another adjacent position? )

7 of the enemy warriors are not dodging and 4 are. The 7 that aren't dodging are good targets for archery units and the 4 that are should be attacked by def ignoring units or left alone until they have attacked something.

Cupid and Yuri can be tasked to eliminating one non-dodging warrior each. (preferably 2 of the ones that attacked the heck pups.) This happens first and drops the potential dance-fighting bonuses for the warriors to 3 for 6 of them and 1 for the other 3.

T. Coil should blast a dodger (WE07). He only has a 1/6 chance of taking him out, but help from one or 2 of the 3 late moving garrison archers should finish the job.

The lucky-streaked garrison archer will fire on one of the 3 non-dodging warriors next to the gate. He'll only do 16 damage to it, but the help of 3 of Yuri's zeds should do wonders.

The remaining 3 zeds can fire on survivors or delay their actions.

Will and Rolf get to move before the warriors next round. Rolf is probably best used to fire on a dodging warrior(WE14 if he is the one in S18) and Will has a good chance of claiming the lives of 2 warriors that arent dodging (The other 2 who attacked the heck pups) .

The Heck pups' action depends on if the warriors decide to drop the gate before the end of the round. In the next round, they'll both be in my stack, so their def-ignoring breath can be used to take out the 2 remaining dodgers (WE15 and WE16), but they will be at the mercy of the 2 remaining non dodgers. If the gate is up, they should just get out of range of the remaining warriors. However, if the gate is down, they can be reinforced by everything still behind the gate. In that case, they should blast away as the melee mass pours out the gate.

There are probably a few ways to better optimize things that I haven't thought of, so players should feel free to make changes to things if they want to.

*bump*

Will is drawing beads on the warriors. So far they are fairly crude, but with the amount of time spent waiting, his skill as in illustrator is improving, and now each bead even has a discernible personality and lively character.

[MarbitChow]

I haven't forgotten you guys; last few nights have just been busy.

[MarbitChow]

MarbitChow, WE11, WE12, and WE13 are all shown as not having a move left to spend. Did they use it up just to change from one position that is adjacent to the gate to another adjacent position?

Yes. Without leadership, training kicks in, and they moved in formation, everyone shifting down to continue to cover. (This is an example of how squad movement will work in the future as well. Movements will not necessarily be optimized.)

Turn 9 - Assault on Dis City - Round 4, Phase 16 (Revised) to End of Combat

At long last, the seige of Dis City as ended. Isn't it strange how, under the strain of combat, minutes seem like weeks?

Every surviving unit in Dis City (except the Skeletons and the Brickabats) gains 6 XP.
All level 1 units are now Level 2, and all Zed Units are now level 1. Unfortunately, no Level 4 units have gained enough XP to reach Level 5 yet. (Units below reflect updated XP and level, but no stat adjustments have been made.)

Towers: 0 (of 18) Energy. Three spell slots free.
Tower 1: 70 Hits. Tower 2: 31 Hits.
Gate: Destroyed.

Spoiler: show

(Feel free to check for mistakes, but there's not much point. You guys utterly crushed the elves and got arguably the best possible outcome. )

(Edit: While cut/pasting into reference section, I accidentally pasted here instead. I was able to save the original text, but lost all the color codes.)

[ETheBoyce]

So now we can Scout for Armolad and then Capture her!

(Also do elves heal themselves?)

[MarbitChow]

(Also do elves heal themselves?)

The Altruist Elves can heal each other, but their ability does not work on themselves.

[0beron]

Well that is disappointing, I was hoping I'd make Lvl 3, darnit.

On the plus side, we have TWO Alt Elves, which is better than I had hoped. Time to see about turnamancing them.

Vinny Juices up, gaining his standard +8 Juice as well as spending all 3 Combat Stats on Juice as well. Does this mean he gains juice now, or does this just mean his Max increases and he has to wait till dawn to be refilled?

[MarbitChow]

Since you level up at the end of the elves' turn, you'll start your turn with your newly-raised stats. I'm also assuming you wish to spend your AP on Craft Lesser Golem, correct?

[0beron]

Excellent, we go...after the Elves? Or will our next turn be tomorrow? And you are correct, Lesser Golem is my pick

[MarbitChow]

The next turn is in the morning, although Charlie actually goes first. Established turn order is Charlie -> Tenebris -> Elves.

[ETheBoyce]

I know I plan on spending the night giving our captives a little Shock Treatment

[Lord of Monies]

Just the one level, eh? Alright, I'll buy Well-Protected, and spend my combat points all on hits. Figure I should boost my bodyguarding capabilities first, then focus on upping my combat next level.

[WaterMonkey314]

Yay for capturing Altruist Elves!

Triage goes for a nice chat with them, as seems to be the tradition for captured healers, also making sure to try and keep Coil away.

[0beron]

Marbit, are we implementing the "partial completion" idea we discussed? If so, I will spend my remaining 6 Juice to begin crafting a Steadycrow.

[BLANDCorporatio]

Will is proud of one-shotting two warriors and thus their painless delivery to the Titans on high. Still a bit disappointed at not having done a proper archery duel however, because Armolad decided to be chicken.

Yay for capturing Altruist Elves!

"You waste your time there Triage. We should rather ask a clothesmancer for some black shiny pvc garments for Coil's new assistants." *spits* "This dungeon is bound to get lively." He goes away shaking his head.

OOC some Questions Marbit
Now that our beasts levels have improved How exactly can we develop them ?
A level 1 naughty kitty
Naughty Kitty (Wandereus') {Level 1, 0 XP} [9 Combat / 12 Defense / 40 Hits / Attack. 10 {12} Move. Special : Beast, Mount.] (Ward-16)
looks pretty much like a level 2 naughty kitty
Naughty Kitty (Wandereus') {Level 2, 6 XP} [9 Combat / 12 Defense / 40 Hits / Attack. 10 {12} Move. Special : Beast, Mount.] (Ward-16)

looks similar for heck pups too
Heck Pup (Hp03) {Level 1, 0 XP} [6 Combat / 6 Defense / 16 Hits / Attack. 14 {12} Move. Special : Pyrohalitosis, Agile, Beast.] (Ward-8)
Heck Pup (Hp03) {Level 2, 6 XP} [6 Combat / 6 Defense / 16 Hits / Attack. 14 {12} Move. Special : Pyrohalitosis, Agile, Beast.] (Ward-8)

Does the 6 XP gain apply to the imps and balrug too as I believe they are in the city... or it it just those that took some part ?


{EDIT} finally found the beast rules tucked away on page 10 (halfway down) of the rules thread
viewtopic.php?f=23&t=6228&start=180
So that let's us spend any AP's...but do they gain combat stats same as chartacters. I can't find any ruling on that
/OOC

[MarbitChow]

Now that our beasts levels have improved How exactly can we develop them ?

Although it has not yet been officially stated, level in exactly the same manner as characters. Note that the new rules are not yet in effect for your group, so if you want to level and use beasts while attempting to capture Armolad, only the 'standard' Abilities (like Well-Armed, etc.) are currently available to them. You can re-choose their abilities once the new rules take effect, after Armolad is resolved.

Does the 6 XP gain apply to the imps and balrug too as I believe they are in the city... or it it just those that took some part ?

No. Imps and the Balrug are Inhuman, and thus not able to level.

[MarbitChow]

Junetta, Wandereus and Triage intercept Coil as he's about to lead the Altruist Elves away.

"Careful, Tesla," Junetta warns. "These units are healers, and thus fall under our protection. Without a direct order from Tod, we shall not allow you to 'play' with them until they are turned and can choose for themselves, and we shall not allow your methods to be used to attempt such turning. We don't want them broken."

Wandereus crosses his arms and glares and Coil. Triage offers an arm to each Altruist, and together the group makes its way towards one of the many parlors within the city, where they can speak in relative comfort, out of the view of the dozens of elven corpses.

[0beron]

Again, I am aware that we cannot gain the Alt Elves as proper Natural Allies that allow us to pop more...but can they willingly Turn to us after Junetta, Triage, and Wanderus talk to them? Or do they require magical Turnamancy?

Also, see my question above about Partial Crafting for Golems.
