1:03
former crewmate of nisk and thus following where he goes
1:10
i’m cl oh i’m claudia i’m playing gina ghost friend
1:16
and uh gina will maybe this session dance with ghosts more or less i’m richard
1:23
i’m playing garen grim singing i am a Humakti bodyguard who is not a fan of the undead
1:30
no you are not okay let’s just dive right in um
1:37
so uh uh at this point you guys have you guys last session beat a hasty uh
1:45
withdrawal to your gatehouse um where you all have gathered
1:52
your your followers and bandits and whatnot and uh can now try to come up with your
2:00
plan to be able to avenge yourself upon the the uh rather snotty and rude
2:08
dead people that told you to go away and if it wasn’t for the fact that they
2:13
were on the under a flag of histories and we would have been breaking that sacred thing we would have
2:18
attacked them then and there it wasn’t really them speaking it was
2:23
just one guy speaking correct yeah just the one guy we have
2:29
the only one who was not totally undead basically
2:34
kind of newish undead is there actually a scale of undeadness
2:42
you you would know better than i would that i don’t know let’s let’s have our
2:49
uh experts in things dead uh discuss the matter
2:55
yeah i mean i have turned undead so this means there’s dead and there’s undead
3:01
and there’s living in my opinion so we have three ways what
3:08
yeah there’s living living or good that’s part of the natural thing there’s
3:14
debt is very good that is also part of the natural thing keep in mind the way it works with
3:19
with tychora tech is when you are killed when you die your souls
3:26
leave your body and they go to the um they go to the other world in your
3:32
body your body’s supposed to you know you’re supposed to light it on fire or stick it in the earth or shove it in the pot or
3:38
you know whatever the local funerary customs are and then they the souls go to various places until
3:45
they are recycled back into the world mm-hmm yeah um but this product
3:50
thing is actually taking something out of the recycling cycle uh the uh the one thing that i think ty
3:56
cora and whom act more or less views that exactly the same way
4:01
you know there is there’s the state of living which is a living
4:06
person with their soul together until whom act kills them and then the two separate
4:14
because humont is the great divider and the great separator and you don’t really care where the
4:19
souls go as long as they go and the body is supposed to stay dead
4:27
and eventually decompose and or be burnt or you know who mike doesn’t care
4:32
that much about what happens to the body but that’s what’s supposed to happen there they’re not supposed to
4:38
the body is not supposed to be wandering around pretending that it’s still got us all
4:47
which is why i think uh undead capable of conversation are even
4:54
more of an abomination because there are yeah you need to masquerade as though they
5:00
are living you know to those who aren’t aware of it they might even be able to trick trick
5:06
them okay they might be viewed as tight rope dancing on Humakt’s blade
5:14
they might indeed and it is my job to push them off and they they are kind of a mockery of
5:20
both who mocked their their very existence mocks your god both you and claudia that that’s what i
5:26
meant with tightrope walking on whom i played it’s just quite you know how can you live with this karen
5:32
i mean well um obviously that’s why we’re going to the castle i’m
5:38
going to kill everything that comes within reach of my pretty nifty iron blade
5:44
but how can you actually kill something which is already dead that’s the reason why you have to convince them to take
5:50
their way you are the philosopher gina i am a warrior
5:55
you may debate the niceties of living and death with the undead for you
6:01
all you like i am just going to slaughter them yeah but when they already undead
6:06
how you can slaughter them just say destroy the undead let’s not worry about whether we’re calling you’re going to
6:12
kill them or not you’re not playing you know garen you’re pretty sure if you
6:19
chop them up into little bits and light them uh throw them into a big um fire
6:25
that’ll work i think just yeah just hacking them into bits is
6:30
definitely gonna help i agree with this i agree with the five you only have to
6:36
bless it a little bit okay so what is um first let me get an
6:43
idea here of your total uh fighting force
6:48
because this is also useful for you guys can we go through the various player
6:54
characters of who all they have as
7:01
fighting sidekick so you have an idea what your military for your potential martial force are
7:09
yep i have a list but it’s quite old from okay from may the 20th
7:16
you could just list everyone could list who they have and then kind of go from there who they’re managing if you want to start with that
7:22
okay so let’s go with you nisk um right now it looks like i am i’m running as well as myself and
7:29
they’re humati rastaros and nostarius and they’re both
7:34
Humakt d one’s initiate one’s a lay member
7:43
okay let’s jump oh let’s jump over to coal brass yeah well this
7:50
beside myself this symbol and filter the two innocent looking guys we
7:58
picked up um what’s the name on the bad side how about you garen
8:06
i’ve got me wahatal and a uh Humaktlay member called sazela
8:20
how about you gina i have only orbor so you have a hairdresser he is a very
8:28
powerful sidekick okay yeah okay sorry but
8:34
who knows some important stuff in color
8:42
it works better when you’re not muted it really does i had to sneeze i forgot to turn it back
8:47
on uh joe far white bull a waha initiate
8:53
so that’s my fighter now if i record you also have a group of bandits we do we actually have five bandits they
9:00
are led by um by brewstus and then four others all of medium skill
9:08
i guess and i have got all their data
9:14
so you got a a group of about 18 people in total
9:20
um uh uh uh let me describe the castle here because i think that’s
9:28
kind of important so um a question i have
9:37
uh is how do i what’s the edit function in zoom kids
9:43
what do you mean if i want to share screen can i edit you can then annotate you
9:49
should be able to annotate once you share it okay
9:56
so under view options on the top right i see i see hold on here
10:04
um clear nope that’s not what i’m going to do it
10:10
just writes pieces you can yeah there you go you can’t erase that jeff you can only
10:15
erase the notes that you add oh well that sucks oh well that
10:21
this gives you an idea of the basic shape of this um this is the you can see that there’s
10:28
a gate over here so let me just uh see if
10:35
let’s see if i can
10:40
we got a gate here you’ve got um 10 meter
10:52
walls so um at a single major gate
11:02
uh and the whole thing is about 18 it’s you know it’s roughly 20
11:08
meters um on a side and 20 meters on another long slide inside it comes out to more precisely 18
11:16
by 17 meters but you know who’s really who’s really counting so it’s a big structure 10 meters high
11:24
and at the top of that um when you you looked at it it’s got it um
11:30
the the typical sort of fortified parapets uh on the top
11:38
is this one big hole or what was that is that just one big call uh
11:44
i’m not going to let you know what’s on the inside there what there is is what i was showing was
11:50
that’s the outline of of the castle walls okay about you know if you it says this
11:58
uh irregular shape um made out of stone
12:03
uh about 10 meters high it’s uh presumably of of second age
12:09
construction so it’s you know it’s it’s well built very um you know probably built out of
12:18
of big huge polygonal um uh bits of masonry
12:26
so you know kind of think is is anybody familiar with um
12:31
uh incan fortifications you know that the way they they were able to put these
12:38
huge blocks and line them up perfectly um so that they
12:45
you know you can’t even shove a piece of paper in between the rocks
12:50
that would be what this is like goes up 10 meters so it’s it’s it’s very high and at the
12:57
top you can see that there’s a uh um some granulations at the top
13:04
that are not built out of stone the upper levels are probably built like like almost everything you know they
13:10
they’re at least in part with adobe brick um but if you look up there you can see
13:17
that there is there’s plenty of areas that if defenders wanted to
13:22
um hide and try to shoot with missile weapons they’d be able to do it now is a
13:29
fortification that that neil would ness
13:34
could dismiss cafe yes could you roll against your peptosaur
13:40
all right it doesn’t have a good peppercorn 53 that’s probably a failure
13:46
pretty sure it is yes it is if anyone makes a battle you
13:53
can uh a battle roll [Music] so that’s seven from 85.
14:02
so that is a special success hey Kulbrast this is something you would absolutely
14:08
hate to try to make a uh frontal assault yeah that that’s sort of what i was trying to tell
14:15
my friends i don’t think we’re disagreeing with that yeah yeah
14:20
no one’s disagreeing with that at all you know 50 people could hold this against a
14:25
small army another yeah
14:32
so one thing i can do is i can get over those walls
14:38
yeah you can tell me i can but i can get other another person over those walls if we
14:43
want to do that do a diversionary attack one way have a couple leap open the walls
14:49
kill some guys and try and get the walls open and try and get it in that is possible i mean we you know
14:55
we’re quite good at sort of getting up on walls and you know killing people there so we should use
15:00
that but can we sort of maybe find another way because i was just like going way in
15:06
like i i thought there was supposed to be underground sort of you know parts of
15:13
the buildings um which probably feel almost the whole
15:18
hill the flint nail temple there yeah so maybe there’s you know another
15:24
entry somewhere and yeah the flint nail temple would be an obvious we don’t even
15:30
know if that’s opened up or through we’ve never heard of anybody they don’t even go out that way
15:36
right that’s my concern so i i i don’t know i don’t think we
15:42
could if you look at the distance it might be quite challenging to reach it that way too if we don’t know it
15:49
and they do seem to be they do seem to know what’s going on strangely no for being eyeless they have
15:56
pretty good ideas okay but i do i do think we should take advantage of the fact that this group
16:03
is pretty um what do you want to call it um they’ve well the
16:10
they’re zombies right most of these are something they’re not gonna know guys yeah they’re not gonna be making great
16:15
decisions with the exception of perhaps a couple of leaders so it’s centralized unlike us where you know all of us can
16:21
make great you know can make these things um so what we could do is we could certainly set up an attack where we try
16:28
to scale the wall you know with because we can get you know like we had the
16:33
um when we attacked the big city right we had a trees we could bring up and you
16:38
know drop down on there get set to do that have the archers we’ve got lots of archers with shields
16:44
we can have them with shields you know shooting to cover but we actually leap somewhere else
16:49
near enough to be able to basically take them down
16:54
that’s an option and we could befuddle them with speed
17:00
because they’re slow shambling you know zombies you mean they should hurt
17:07
themselves did they run themselves until they fall down or what do you mean well i would imagine them not being very
17:15
you know not being able to for instance turn around very quickly okay or change direction very quickly or
17:22
sort of get out of the way of you know say big trees coming their way or
17:28
whatever okay one second there are a lot of big trees around here
17:33
no that was just the oh that was just an example that’s just an example i mean we can certainly bring in a tree right we did we have the ones
17:40
actually probably there’s some around they project up for firewood there aren’t that many big trees and pavements yeah
17:46
not nuts you want to go to the garden yeah probably not no no i understand that
17:52
trees and aggression i thought you you actually were doing
17:57
putting speed on them so that they maybe fall down or whatever
18:02
okay that would be yes that would be their limbs flying away or whatever now it is interesting ice
18:09
popping that’s actually quite good we have some we have some really good spells for dealing with zombies which actually
18:14
might work great if they’re up on ledges on parapets because there’s no back wall right if you cast turn undead to them on
18:22
there on a parapet or they just gotta go over the edge does that help us clear it problem is
18:28
turner and dead is actually a rune spell well so is my lead right if i
18:33
want to get another person up there that’s going to cost four rune points but doesn’t uh
18:38
garen have his like holy symbol that will could do something is not rune spell
18:46
they don’t like your cross do they oh i don’t i don’t remember they make a
18:53
whom after all
18:59
[Music]19:05
that works with vampires only vampires are too dumb
19:11
to to know that they’re i mean the advantage is that you can get them to run away but i don’t think you’re they’re not
19:18
they don’t recognize your sword that’s a symbol of death because they’re stupid well they’re not even stupid they’re autonomous now keep in mind
19:25
two of you guys have the turn undead spell correct and i believe that’s a one-point spell
19:30
or is that a two-point spell it’s one point i think but i think it requires magic points
19:38
that’s where the key is so let’s see here i’ve got quite a few magic points i’ve only got one rune point there
19:45
that’s the issue dude why didn’t you have one well you didn’t you didn’t do the ritual and get more back i only got one back
19:52
um i would download per person
19:59
i have i have actually four rune points available so i can do it four times i mean the
20:07
problem is that these kind of zombies are not counting as ghosts do they no they are not ghosts turn on debt is
20:15
stackable 100 creature per point per room so you could get four
20:24
four creatures but then you must attempt to overcome um magic points with your power that
20:30
shouldn’t be a problem
20:38
i mean if you got gina somewhere and and again this is one of the things about roon quest is uh
20:44
one of his great strengths is violence is incredibly dangerous in runequest
20:53
and that also means though that if you guys want to do something like attack uh a castle you have to
21:00
really think through what your you know how you’re going to do this
21:06
um more so and it’s it’s less forgiving than a lot of other uh rule systems on this
21:13
gina can could theoretically get get rid of four of the undead or at least force
21:19
them to run away with turn undead which is pretty good
21:25
garen less one one if that’s what he wants to use this
21:30
rune point for um
21:36
in calla if there are any ghosts you will be absurdly helpful yeah um i am planning on putting on my
21:44
spirit screen but what i’ve been reading is that spirit screen and protection don’t actually go along you
21:52
can’t have no so you can’t actually have protection and spirit screen at the same time go no or counter magic i think right
22:01
yes yes something let me let’s double check there but i believe that is the way it goes is you’ve got to
22:09
decide what you’re going to try to do yeah and now of course big picture what
22:16
that means is nobody can be you know almost nobody is able to fight
22:23
on every front so if you’ve got somebody that’s got a lot of protection on it then they’re vulnerable to
22:29
they’re usually vulnerable to magic or spirits unless they’re using the shield spell
22:38
but that’s different that’s still not spirit screen that’s just um protection
22:43
and counter magic yeah but you can stack a separate screen with uh shield
22:49
it’s a bit of what we’re gonna need uh
22:55
no i’m saying i might start out with the protection on me because we know that they’re the first ones we’re going to meet our
23:00
zombies and then switch to the spirit screen we’ll get in there which where there might be more i mean
23:06
if we look at what we’re going to do here maybe our goal is just to basically wipe out their troops yeah and decimate you know more you know
23:13
destroy the ranks yeah then decimate um so that we can then plan uh careful on it like be a physical
23:19
assault first yeah how many zombies do we sing out there well they came out with about 20 right
23:25
jeff there were about 20 when you guys negotiated with them it doesn’t mean they’re all there it doesn’t mean
23:31
they’re all armed but it is it is at least that number yeah and the problem is of course i have no
23:37
idea what the castle looks like inside which is yeah but maybe maybe our goal
23:44
is to do a do a an assault of the castle to like i said reduce their numbers not plan to go in this time unless we’re
23:50
extremely successful and then work out what we have for the next pieces of it i mean the thing is
23:56
i say have this idea once they’re actually engaged i’m pretty sure we could lure
24:02
them apart where they are more vulnerable because if you know if i say say i have lured two zombies
24:10
somewhere and i’m fighting against them and garen has lured two zombies uh 20 meters or 30 meters
24:17
away from me and one of us runs to the other guys we can kill the zombies until the other
24:24
two zombies sort of catch up with the guy who runs um yeah we can kill them too no you’re
24:29
right mobility is a huge benefit here i have an idea cool brush you have only one arm maybe you can actually disguise
24:35
as a zombie go into the middle and then chop them off none of them had only one arm
24:42
yeah but that’s it lose these parts of their limbs and so
24:49
on so you are actually a perfect person to disguise yourself want to elaborate more on that
24:55
brilliantly yeah all girl will actually make the right makeup see see all gore is important
25:02
for the hairdresser to come along i could probably scout the castle sort of
25:08
you know dressed up as a zombie the question is would they not realize that i actually can see something
25:16
go ahead left field plan could we make some sort of deal with
25:23
magnificent butt and his oh mandrills they could maybe scale the
25:30
walls not the most kind of trojan horse style
25:35
i i will never get uh my headdresser back well i mean we will yeah you know
25:43
sacrifices have to be made gina yeah no not my hairdresser maybe maybe not
25:49
magnificent but but i mean we certainly we could ask um maybe we asked uh wind
25:54
whistler to do a scout for us or something to distract them i don’t know
25:59
um you have a lot of value i mean yeah let me throw out one other thing here
26:04
and this just as a gm you guys have built up a lot of relationships in this part of the rubble
26:11
and you could call in some of the favors that you’ve made you of course as soon as you do that
26:16
then you have to give them some of the stuff and also we have to um basically a lot of those are very
26:22
senior they may want to take command of it which is something we really don’t want to do either so i’m not a big fan if we can do it
26:30
what was with the guys who had the crossbows and where we got into a little bit of a fight miss
26:35
we’ve got five of them half of those enjoyed this five of them are not true but i have another question um
26:41
did do you remember correctly that most of the zombies had no power yes correct does a disruption
26:48
spell work on them yes you just have to overcome their magic points and in general
26:54
such undead things generally speaking um have a lower magic points
27:03
than they probably had power okay so does that really come back does
27:09
it it’s harder for them to get their power points back the issue though with that is with
27:14
disruption you got to be careful with it is they have um to stop a zombie you have
27:20
to basically you know pit it in the abdomen and wipe it out or take its head off and so disruption
27:28
it’s a random you can’t say i’m disrupting the head you say i’m disrupting them when you roll location i believe
27:34
correct that’s the only concern he’s random yeah so um i mean your spirit of the head
27:39
would be what if you’re lucky you hit a leg and it can’t move anymore you know
27:45
well true true but your destruction is still going to do like one to three points right and your
27:50
spear is going to do a lot more a javelin if you can do it yeah nice
27:56
just questions totally for a question the other spells i’m just going to kind
28:01
of go through um uh spells that could be useful for various folk
28:06
uh cobras don’t you have thunderbolt uh yes yeah it’s a three-pointer
28:13
i know it uses of all my room points but it’s reserved for okay plus someone very special and
28:20
if you spend it four points it lets you hit two people with it yeah i don’t really have more than three
28:27
room points but that’s a shame well that’s how it goes so i so like i said i can get i mean i
28:35
could theory i could get three people on there up top probably not as useful because
28:41
then i have no room points for shield or anything like that or heal body uh sorry he’ll wound but i could
28:47
certainly get myself and garen up there in melee combat um we have enough people that we could
28:53
definitely do in a plan an assault be it near the gate or a wall and then we attack
28:58
kind of on a side perspective um
29:03
and then using the crossbowman’s cup we actually have a lot of our you know our archers can definitely help against them
29:09
even they have to have to hit the head but they could certainly um do some good damage to keep the
29:15
zombies down because i i believe once we get in melee combat we’ll pretty well carve them off
29:23
so yeah why don’t we just go anywhere else so i what i would do is i
29:30
would basically buff up how you know give give something so that garen and i are ready to go up
29:35
there set the distraction thing on the attack um and then have leverage the fact that we
29:41
have people if we see a zombie we you know um gina can turn undead and make it you know
29:46
can super disrupt them pretty easily actually that’s a great idea and get them because they’re going to be out of combat for like 15 minutes
29:53
um and then we assault from there does that does that make sense and then what ideally if
30:00
garen and i get enough idea that we can try and get the gate open to let the other people charge in
30:06
um i don’t we do have rune magic among the other um npcs so they definitely have the
30:12
ability to do some yep not the bandits i don’t believe but the other guys do
30:22
but i’m tired of just talking about it i guess is the the point of um fair enough let’s go okay
30:29
give me a quick moment here so that i can give you some some visual references for the castle
30:38
okay oh um nestorius head taker also has turn
30:46
on dead by the that’s way useful
30:51
[Music] okay give me one second here and i am
31:04
if i can [Music]31:09
okay here we are i need to share a screen here because
31:16
there we are okay let me share screen this is to give you guys kind of a feel
31:22
for this
31:28
all right it it’s not like this precisely it’s actually a little bit higher than
31:33
this one those monkeys would be really useful
31:39
and there is no window up there oh i said we could go into the window
31:45
no there’s no windows so basically what there is here is there’s a a gate now the gate of the castle that
31:52
you’re wanting to charge is um actually bigger than this
31:58
but the castle itself goes up higher you do not know if this is a curtain
32:04
wall or whether this is a single solid building no idea from this perspective now you
32:11
have people that could tell you that if you wanted to ask when will circuit tell us that yeah
32:18
okay we can have wind whistler fly and scout for us and tell us what it looks like in fact we should ask him today he can do that
32:24
right now who’s gonna ask [Music]32:33
yeah i go to the through his land in the top of the gatehouse
32:40
are you gonna try to talk to him in Auld Wyrmish well i guess i might as well
32:46
still not very good at this though so he might just you know chuckle a bit but we can’t get back sorry you’re a human
32:54
never get that can’t
33:00
45 or 14. okay so those of you who are familiar with the
33:05
old monty python movie uh life of brian there is essentially
33:11
the draconic reenaction of the scene where your grammar and declension is corrected
33:20
by wind whistler so it takes you quite a long time i just wanted to say
33:27
hello but you did such a poor job of this
33:33
yeah that that you end up with a lengthy grammatical lesson but once the grammar
33:40
lesson is over when whistler is willing to listen to your entry which is
33:48
you remember how we told you that we would have a look at blind man’s castle and
33:54
pill and see if there’s a shrine of the sun dragon god in there somewhere
34:03
and at the moment we have some undead in our way and we need to get into the
34:08
castle we have no idea what’s behind those high walls and we were wondering if you could tell
34:14
us something about it he says that the that he’s flown over
34:20
it multiple times and part of the reason that he’s pleased that you’re wanting to do this
34:26
is there is a a roof or a floor he doesn’t know which it
34:33
actually is on the top so it is not a curtain wall
34:38
surrounding a courtyard there is uh you know there there there is clearly a
34:44
floor there covered with old debris uh
34:50
he thinks the that he he recalls that it once in the um in the heyday of the city
34:58
it was actually taller um so there might be flaws missing
35:04
so and another question i i don’t know do you fly by day i mean
35:10
could you you know you prefer just to fly by day the day blesses him with the
35:16
sun oh that’s brilliant yeah why didn’t i think anyway that would be great because you might
35:21
you know be able to sort of drop someone on the wall perhaps maybe
35:32
uh let me see if he physically can do that i think he can actually i mean he’s 12
35:38
meters long well the issue is he has no hands oh
35:43
yeah that’s true oh he just got wings so hold on go fly get his back travel in his mouth
35:50
no but you know no it’s a great question i really like it it’s really cool hey jeff
35:56
do you want to stop sharing for a bit yeah absolutely i just thought that was useful to have is no no it’s vital just
36:02
it’s too easy to keep it up there the whole time i thought i would have it up the whole night
36:09
as a whole whistler is actually golly you know he’s size um
36:18
he’s size 30. um
36:24
somebody could hold on to wind whistler’s top as he flew up and he could get up and
36:31
get them up there and they could slide off him on the top but whoever it is would need to be able
36:37
to hold on to wind whistler as he flew so someone very strong or dexterous
36:46
or dexterous you think you’d accept a rope around like the neck hold on to it i
36:53
don’t think so are you gonna suggest that to win whistler you don’t actually have to tie it you
36:58
just hold it or like a basket city carries or a rope swing you
37:07
yeah oh oh that would be so good gina are you gonna be the one who wants
37:12
to ride on top of the worm no why not but i i am
37:17
actually terrible in writing i think it needs to be somebody strong
37:23
or dexterous and not too tall isn’t in carter really strong
37:28
i have a dex 30 of 16. so so i’m just going to say strength 17
37:36
deck 17 size 11. so that you are yeah sounds about right
37:44
yeah you know i’ve gotten used to using only one arm but okay
37:51
maybe garen wants to ryan here here this is this is something it’ll cost me a rune point but this is something we can
37:57
do i can understand i can’t communicate with you but i can hear everything you say when
38:03
you’re flying up there if you want to spend the time point
38:09
okay and what what’s what’s the plan behind this well it’s a communication right if
38:15
you’re okay giving you information you could actually just be our scout letting us know
38:23
you got a crow you got a freaking raven you don’t even need you know oh yeah we’ll just send my raven
38:29
well don’t i i would do that closer to the attack though just because yeah you don’t want to risk him and we
38:35
can also if wind whistler gives somebody a lift to the top then they can just drop a rope down
38:44
that’s true and then everybody’s in and we can we
38:49
can go from there plus i you know assuming and obviously this will
38:54
work when we get there and can check if they don’t have any sentries on there they’ll be completely unprepared
39:00
so maybe they don’t have sentries ever they don’t need to sleep yeah could you raven um
39:08
i don’t know see if there’s some sort of opening to get inside the castle from
39:14
the top i mean that probably would be because it sounds good to me right if there’s guys up there on a wall they
39:21
got to get to the wall somehow other guys up on the wall i thought it
39:27
was just like they if they were they could shoot at us from top the wall but
39:33
and i don’t think they wear any i’ll have you scouted the top uh we
39:39
haven’t even well no i mean from what we could see there were no centuries standing on the
39:45
top of the wall looking down i don’t think we got that close they came to visit outside the hill can i
39:50
send my raven it can’t be rich you could this is this is the easiest solution i’m i’m liking
39:56
gina’s facial expression here as she’s going i’m checking my character she just says
40:02
anything useful on it okay so your raven does your raven have
40:08
any perception skills uh you have never actually given me any stats for my rover okay i’m going to
40:14
now like he has a hundred and eight hundred percent no he doesn’t have a hundred but i’m gonna give him decent ones he’s a raven
40:22
and i’m gonna give him a scan of we’ll give him a scan
40:29
of 70 percent all right it’s very generous but we’ll also give him a custom custom
40:38
um ability because he’s a raven so the issue is raven wants to know
40:45
what’s it worth it to him uh i’ve got a bag of jerky fingers
40:52
[Music] really i occasionally give him arcs which i’ve just decided to call him
40:59
archer lost you know what’s in it for you and i value your companionship immensely but
41:05
come on i am i am good to you this is not a difficult task for you there’ll be there’s no you know there’s no great
41:11
archers on these walls who might who might suspect you you will be fine this is a very easy task for
41:17
a beast as a bird as as cunning and canny and collected as yourself
41:23
flattered archelaus happily takes off and will fly around the uh uh the tower would you roll
41:31
against archelaus’s 70 scan 47
41:38
47 says there’s a lot of junk up there there’s there’s there’s
41:45
there’s more of those um there’s a lot of armored guys up on the top though
41:51
um that there’s a big spiral staircase on one end that that goes down
42:00
but there’s a bunch of those armored guys up on the top
42:06
a bunch is not very in a very accurate number i’m a raven it goes one two three
42:13
bunch
42:21
as many as us or fewer you guys or all the guys all the guys
42:30
cut the scene i’ll give him two chosen uh two morsels from the back
42:37
of jerky fingers depending entirely his choice
42:43
is a very happy raven okay well that helps us a lot because
42:49
that does tell us what we need to do we need to get on the roof we do we need it sounds like that if we
42:54
get wind listen to drop someone off probably not not first i want to be clear on that we can get three people up there pretty
43:00
quickly and um we can drop the ropes down and um have others do and use crossbow cover
43:07
and clear and i will save in a point so everyone on the mountain on there can jump off if
43:12
they need to what do you think is there do you think they have a lot of reinforcements
43:18
because if i can chase actually with my um turn undead somebody down the
43:24
staircase so nobody else can come up uh so so so maybe once somebody runs
43:31
away in a staircase it would i mean block maybe reinforcements if they are
43:37
reinforcements which we do not know i mean if there are standing on top of
43:42
the staircase it’s definitely a huge advantage when some zombies shamble up the stairwell
43:50
you just you know hack them down as they come along it’s getting rid of that’s on the top first
43:55
of all yeah i mean that’s obviously what we have to do first but once we’ve done that you know it’s sort of
44:02
the whole thing what if our beautiful worm actually uh carried like a barrel of
44:09
oil and smashed it on top there and we when it’s pressed on fire yes
44:18
he’s got no claws and yeah so one person could get on um
44:26
wind whistler and the way i imagine they do this is they throw an arm completely around it their legs
44:32
around it and they hold on for dear life um uh somewhere around where his wings
44:38
are so somebody brave so kobras could do it because he’s brave
44:44
he’s brave and a bit yeah but he’s only one arm so it’s
44:51
just slip wrong arm and and leg he’s really strong if right i’m a pirate i used to climb up ships
44:58
and stuff yeah but not with one arm
45:15
[Music] missions i’m perfectly happy that’s okay i will embalm your body i will embalm your body uh i’m not sure
45:24
i want that to be honest go into the underworld just just don’t talk to me when i’m dead
45:29
that’s all i ask really i could interrogate you
45:36
we could have long conversations i can even command you to talk to me
45:42
you have no idea how how motivating this is to stay alive yes that’s what i was imagining is that
45:51
it’s very clear you want to stay alive yeah see see this gives you a weird way
45:58
of a advantage yeah i’m i’m pretty sure i can even uh uh
46:03
augment on that if you die you have to talk to me for a
46:11
day and night for weeks okay so we have we really have the idea that we’re gonna
46:16
probably have garen and myself jump up um about the same time the flyers are gonna go
46:22
and everyone else is gonna basically we’ve got our um our troops leading a um
46:30
basically setting up getting ready you know with shields and crossbows and stuff like that to do a i would say a
46:36
an assault on that and then we jump a little further away
46:43
so let me make sure i understand this so you’re gonna have um you’re gonna have the bulk of your
46:49
your folk um there’s 19 of you if i counted so you’ll have uh 16 of
46:57
them getting ready to make an assault on the door
47:04
on the gate the 19 is including us right yeah so if so if garen and nisk are
47:12
uh getting up on jumping up can they get some of the rest of us
47:17
up so that there’s more people in the back no just you okay i’m not not i can only do that if i can i i
47:24
could spend it’s going to cost me four room points to get two people to jump up i’m talking about a rope i could throw a rope down we can throw a
47:30
rope down like a big coil of rope you know wraps around ourselves when we jump off throw that down
47:40
yeah if that’s viable i’m thinking um if they manage if the rest of the group manages to get all the attention
47:47
it would be cool for the whole group to come together instead of just two of you guys which is very vulnerable
47:55
possibly for you guys that is a very good point yes so what you
48:03
might if i understand you correctly you think the assault should start and once the zombies all go to the front gate
48:10
then you jump up and let down again and yeah and you do and you actually come in a
48:16
little later behind i can’t i don’t i’m not sure i can jump up to the roof with you
48:22
it’s not an ambush it’s a tactical maneuver it’s not an ambush there’s no way we are jumping up and
48:28
assaulting it’s going to be visible it’s a tactical maneuver yeah this is a flanking activity not not
48:34
an ambush i’m i’m slightly concerned the pins are moving but the back part of the pincer
48:40
movement is dangerously close to another you are in the vanguard going up to clear so everyone else can get up there
48:47
it’s typical right i mean they’re providing covering fire for our assault we actually are the main assault to try
48:53
and get up there erin i think what’s very important though is if you do this you need one heck of a good war cry
49:05
i think you actually come in from the other side and land on the other side with what
49:10
keep in mind how darned visible gold brass coal breast is
49:16
not riding i know i think he’s riding on a 12 meter long
49:23
worm with giant wings that’ll confuse them a bit that’s good yep okay so yeah
49:31
we all ride in from the back so to speak because i’ll be the ambush and garen is the main
49:38
song you could actually be the initial distraction too in terms of once it starts coming they’re gonna be like oh my god this thing’s coming
49:45
but then our friend has a problem i think
49:50
we’re not doing anything with you’re just a reinforcement yeah that’s true but we have this we’re saying this
49:56
before [Music] with this massive 12 meter snake flying
50:04
in there it is not an ambush this is not at all this is the ability we’re trying to make them split
50:10
their forces
50:19
go against your honor garen
50:26
uh that is 77 against 95. you think aaron
50:33
that correct me if i’m wrong on this but that
50:38
certainly leaping up there is within the bounds of of honor assuming
50:45
that once you’re up there you call them out with a a properly impressive war cry
50:52
so that it’s this is not an ambush i have had no problem with leaping up there
50:57
i have no problem with engaging the foe it was the doing so after all of the undead had
51:04
flocked to the gate you believe that that that if you leap
51:10
up there call them out that’s okay but yeah don’t attack them
51:15
don’t attack their back they need an opportunity to turn around
51:25
but do attack them when they come up the stairwell one by one looking blinking into the sun not you
51:31
know you’re seeing even less than the eyes okay that’s probably the problem that’s
51:38
brilliant so are we ready to advise yes yeah i think so yeah the only thing i want to do is i want to ask
51:45
um if some of the like i’ve got some people i’ve got some people down below like
51:50
mysterious and rasterous i’m going to actually ask them to use their shield spell on me and they
51:56
should do the same if you have someone on you because you’ve got a holy day coming up so we’ll get be able to get it back
52:02
but that’s lets me save the spells points i need if i need to get Kulbrast off i need to do a heel body when i’m up there
52:08
how many here here uh room points does she have or yeah they both have three
52:17
okay neil this is what i want you to do i’m going to give you guys three options
52:24
here if they’ve got a loyalty to you then they can roll against their
52:30
loyalty to you and that succeeds uh if you’re just trying to do it on a
52:37
raw charisma thing we could do it as a charisma versus their intelligence
52:42
i don’t want to do it on a rock charisma i want them to be to think it’s the right thing to do for the right or you can give a successful orate
52:49
and a successful orate they will be persuaded i will do an r8
52:56
i’m not trying to hide anything i’m trying to do those pieces of it and do it right hey go for it
53:06
and i’m sorry this is there’s a lot of prep on this but what you guys are doing i think you guys have figured out is
53:12
very dangerous i succeed it’s not anything special but it’s a very solid even with big penalties okay
53:18
one of them is willing to offer you a three-point shield spell
53:24
okay i think it’s a brilliant idea i want to ask joe farr whitefield for the same uh i
53:31
remember when you wrote him up you said he should have some kind of loyalty to me because he did follow 60 percent christmas yeah it’s not on
53:37
the sheet so just write it down on the sheet yeah
53:44
okay and i’m going to have the younger one do that because he’s the one that got healed up because and the other one has to turn on
53:49
dead so she can be ready return on debts as roone spells do you want to ask your guy
53:56
um yeah candy um sazela
54:04
he’s also Orlanth so he can you know i’m gonna get make sure he’s in the ritual they want to title the school looks great yeah
54:12
okay josh far zero three and carla josh farr
54:19
is phenomenally loyal to you he happily that’s critical it’s a critical
54:26
he without a single ask he gives up all his power to you what do you think
54:34
shield spell just be careful on except for the ones up top we shouldn’t be asking too much
54:40
of them because they’re gonna have to support each other right they’re just as much in danger as we are
54:45
aaron what are you gonna go off here [Music]54:51
i think um to humor
54:56
honor 70. okay um
55:01
[Music] did you or am i relaying this
55:09
i i if you did it for uh and carla i feel
55:15
uh they’re willing to give a two or two of their three room points onto you sweet
55:22
okay so that’s gives you four points of armor
55:28
all right um i want to i’m just going to kind of run the setup
55:33
here so there’s a group of all of you except cobras
55:39
gather how far away from the main gate outside there are four
55:46
of these centuries outside of the main gate
55:55
oh on the ground on the ground what do you mean with centuries four of these zombies outside of the
56:01
main gate acting as sentries we should attack them with missile fire
56:07
or something and then go in and take them out okay um let’s do a
56:14
really really quick round of missile fire for everybody who can that does not
56:20
include coal brass since he has one arm and is also on a worm right now
56:26
i have other things to do like well before i get on um i’ll cast strength
56:32
for myself so i can hold on a bit better okay so the one thing with the spirit that’ll only last a couple of minutes
56:40
not gonna take very long for him to get up there that’s true yeah you can just cast it and you can do a short flight at the
56:45
beginning that’s good so we should shoot hey i went with some
56:52
missile combat here yeah can we roll yes
57:05
okay he doesn’t have any little weapons so
57:10
he’s not going to do anything do you have any i rolled but i failed i
57:17
i used my bow but i didn’t hit arrow misses
57:22
i took one of the crossbows so i’m using that are you skilled in it
57:28
no well no but i do get a 40 but i roll a 96 so that’s pretty far
57:35
from that’s that’s that’s definitely a mess that’s certainly not a fumble
57:41
no i’ll roll for the crossbow people two at a time you have two hits
57:49
and josh of course has one
57:58
50 right joe far has a self bow
58:04
uh okay three hits with a crossbows
58:10
okay let’s handle this very quickly nisk would you please um nisk you
58:17
first one is on sentry number four please roll for damage and location and the damage and
58:24
location is what were these ones i don’t think i have the damage on those
58:30
was it 2d6 plus does the d temples two or two d6 plus
58:36
two sorry i’ll write it down for next time uh let’s see what type of crossbow did i say it was
58:42
it’s the light the dwarven light crossbrow yeah
58:48
okay give me one second
58:59
and mysterious hits beauty six plus two okay
59:06
first one is to the eight and it’s eight it’s eight points okay second one
59:14
is two to the one and it is six points
59:19
third one is to the two and the six points i did not roll very well none of them are appear damaged at all
59:27
okay including the big one the big damage including the big one okay um so i’ve got two more attacks
59:33
well success i got a bow one which is probably not going to be much if i if the eight isn’t much
59:40
nope and then we’ve got a javelin
59:48
okay the javelin is to the to the 10 and it is
59:56
13 points okay the javelin gets through it’s they’re all wearing all of these um
1:00:02
sentries are wearing a scale armor
1:00:08
and here is a point where i need to make an observation about fighting
1:00:14
zombies missile weapons don’t do much no
1:00:20
it does a single point of damage yep like once after you hit the head
1:00:26
i think it might even be the head too it is depressing fighting zombies i’m
1:00:32
just going to double check here that that it is the whole location
1:00:40
okay
1:00:54
hmm actually these guys that actually suffers they suffer damage
1:01:00
normally um they can attack with their the the the but the thing about it is
1:01:06
they continue to fight um even after they’re you have to destroy all their locations so
1:01:12
uh one of the zombies is damaged not uh not enough to
1:01:20
knock out any location or anything but is damaged after your guys round of fire
1:01:28
one second i have two guys on the ground there as well uh simba and field job they both hit
1:01:35
and the first is a symbol he has composite bow and he hits
1:01:43
- okay unless it’s a a special success for the purposes of
1:01:49
this fight no it’s not not special success no specials on any of our roles
1:01:56
no just normal so basically what happens is there’s a flurry of missile weapons
1:02:01
uh going in uh the gates open and keep in mind you guys are still
1:02:07
a good distance away so uh the gates open so that the zombies
1:02:13
can try to get the four zombies can try to get on in what i will allow is if you guys really
1:02:20
want i’ll let you guys all make a roll here um around here
1:02:25
but unless there’s a special critical let’s just go on i don’t want to i i’m not going to do that level of
1:02:31
bookkeeping no and the crossbows have to reload anyway so they’re not yeah they don’t get the again
1:02:38
who did well well of course okay tall would you roll for a location
1:02:46
he certainly will he’s the best uh right leg okay there’s
1:02:53
one zombie out there that is missing a right that has a defunct right leg again
1:02:59
doesn’t destroy the zombie but it does mean that that zombie is on the ground
1:03:06
okay i’ll do um the other second round of attack and so far that is the only actually
1:03:13
significant damage done to anybody he’s going to be so smoke about that
1:03:22
okay yeah no no extra damage from this side
1:03:27
philip did you roll again you get another round with those guys huh okay but you just have to roll a special at
1:03:32
least which is one fifth uh nope nope draw fire as well
1:03:39
no they’re really bad i roll again if i hit i just didn’t do you can hit
1:03:45
but it’s just you know it’s a special or something’s going on okay so the zombies managed to get into
1:03:52
there and on the top of the um the castle you can see
1:04:01
uh that there are a [Music] group of the um zombies
1:04:08
peering out from the the crinulated fortifications and
1:04:15
they’re trying to shoot at you all with uh your mass with um uh
1:04:21
self bows and i’m just gonna do a quick i’m going to do a quick roll here to
1:04:26
just abstract the whole thing here because this is we have we have a case where there
1:04:33
aren’t so many that um it’s likely to be
1:04:39
yeah their attack on you all is as lame as your attack on them
1:04:48
all i take is not lame it’s strategical well in terms of actually doing much
1:04:54
damage to them uh you know er er uh there’s a lot of arrows stuck in
1:05:00
shields and whatnot but none of your force is taken down in this but they’re you know there is
1:05:08
there is a good maybe a score up there
1:05:16
or is 20 or 12 about 20 about as many as you guys they all have
1:05:22
both they’ve all got self bows okay they’re not very good at it
1:05:29
and you guys are far enough away that in a soap only does 1d6 plus 1 damage
1:05:36
so you basically have uh you have something of a standoff here
1:05:45
you’ve got a bunch of zombies up on the top you know you’ve got other zombies inside
1:05:51
um at least four other zombies on the other side of that gate you know maybe they’ve run upstairs or somebody where else but
1:05:58
you know that they’re at least somewhere on the other side of that gate there’s uh about 20 up above
1:06:06
um shooting kind of lamely and after the initial round of this it kind of their
1:06:12
their their firing kind of peters out to see what’s going um what happens and this is
1:06:21
those of your characters that have a battle skill this is a lot of what happens uh
1:06:28
when small groups assault a fortification you know basically the it’s very hard to
1:06:35
take a fortification so now we can move to but now we can
1:06:41
move to stage two
1:06:46
right where are we a bit before we go yes what was that neil i’d like to cast
1:06:53
our spells before we go you know the ones we’re going to cast before we jump is all uh okay what i would like is all spell
1:07:00
casting that’s going to happen before this and then we’re going to see whether coal breast manages to dismount
1:07:07
um i’m going to allow one other thing Kulbrast
1:07:12
i’m going to give you one more chance to talk in Auld Wyrmish twin whistler
1:07:18
okay let’s have a look it’s turning out Auld Wyrmish it’s just such an absurd lead
1:07:25
and yeah i’m trying to remember no no chance he’s very disappointed
1:07:33
oh no he’s just gonna drop you off
1:07:40
just as long as he doesn’t drop me off you know too forcefully
1:07:47
okay why don’t you guys figure out the the spells i want to take a very very
1:07:52
short break and then we’re going to jump right into the combat okay i’ll pause right now and there we
1:07:59
are okay welcome back so let’s go for it does everybody cast their spells
1:08:06
yep cobras garen you have
1:08:14
okay so we’re going to do it like this is i want to imagine that imagine the situation here so while all
1:08:21
of these there’s about 20 zombies um up on the top overlooking
1:08:30
where uh the gate is all right does everybody have a good
1:08:35
mental impression of this or should i put up the uh floor plan at the top again
1:08:40
would that be useful there Kulbrast i think it would be yeah
1:08:50
so you see this here yep actually that’s not the right one i’m
1:08:55
not seeing anything yet that’s because i just stopped it actually oh we’ve we’re missing
1:09:04
i think i just totally i can ask i can hear you but i can’t see you yeah
1:09:11
okay well we may need him in a moment but not yet here is what you see call brass
1:09:18
okay all right so we’ve got the um i’m going to try to draw
1:09:27
uh where these guys are because claudia has inspired me with her
1:09:32
her kids game um
1:09:38
so there’s a a bunch of groups [Music]1:09:46
of of our our our happy zombie friends and
1:09:52
each one of these ovals represent five
1:10:00
zombies they’re on top so this is on the top
1:10:06
yeah okay all right or is it always black yeah yeah if you if you’re writing you
1:10:14
can change the color of your writing but usually my son tells me how to
1:10:21
as one should because it’s the function of kids to be better than we are at this
1:10:30
okay so i’m going to try this anyways there’s a format thing on the top jeff where you can pick different colors and stuff
1:10:36
do you know where would you let me know where that is you’re right no
1:10:43
perfect perfect okay so
1:10:49
here’s the first group do you see where that is yep yep it’s on they’re actually on the
1:10:56
wall
1:11:07
all overlooking um uh overlooking and trying to fire on
1:11:16
your folk you can tell when whistler where you want to show up
1:11:22
and you can also see on here the last thing i want to point out this do you see my mouse yep that is a
1:11:29
ladder that is a ladder that is a ladder that is a ladder that is a ladder where they are they
1:11:37
have no ladders to get down oh [Music]1:11:42
nice so it’s kind of now completely your strategic call
1:11:49
colbrast windwhistler will put you wherever you tell him to
1:11:58
and they have their these sort of both knees to shoot right they have self bows
1:12:05
they are all wearing um they’re all wearing armor fairly heavy
1:12:11
armor and how far can they can they shoot with their cell phone anywhere on this um anywhere here
1:12:19
okay and so the other question was the parapet itself is it sort of just
1:12:27
another massive wall or can you sort of get underneath the parapet
1:12:32
no the parapet is the wall itself okay and then it’s got granulations on
1:12:38
one side okay so um uh can you guys still see that there or
1:12:45
have i so there’s nothing really to sort of get into some sort of cover from the
1:12:51
from the both no once you’re up there
1:12:56
you’re exposed and i i want to show you what the cranial i’m going to
1:13:01
show you the last little bit um which is useful to see what a credit what these granulations actually look
1:13:08
like they’re the pretty much with a bog standard uh style that you see so i’m gonna
1:13:15
stop share
1:13:21
like that that’s good that’s easy they’re standing
1:13:27
go ahead claudia sorry no these things here do they do we also have this thingamajiggy so where we can
1:13:33
actually throw a rope over and easily get up
1:13:39
does it have these yeah but keep in mind it’s over 10 meters up yeah
1:13:46
yeah ropes can be that long they can be that long accurately throwing a rope uh 10 meters
1:13:53
straight high that’s long enough and sturdy enough yeah if we can drop rope down
1:13:58
that’s our point yes yeah yes that’s what i mean once we get there we can get up the top that’s not absolutely and
1:14:04
then and sorry can not the raven get a little string a light string where we put actually the rope on and fly over and
1:14:12
something like that oh no no it’s a raven claudia he was the raven was able to
1:14:19
scout yes he was very useful in scouting and if you wanted them to
1:14:24
wanted them to like hit the raven to pick up like an eyeball it’d be very good at that yeah i mean a
1:14:30
tiny screen where the rope is attached to you it could be a tiny piece of string but let’s keep
1:14:37
going here i want us to get up
1:14:46
just one last question okay well looking at from from the floor shall we say if you
1:14:52
look at um let’s just jump back over to this because i think actually
1:14:58
physically seeing this helps tremendously if you look at this the floor is
1:15:06
about where um yeah these um
1:15:13
uh tree these pieces of wood are right because you would put the floor right on that
1:15:20
so it’s only the the parapet is actually only about a meter above the roof i was just doing this so
1:15:28
the ladders are pretty much predominantly well still if you’re a zombie
1:15:33
i would need a letter to go up and down i wouldn’t know that but okay um well if i know that then i’ll tell wind
1:15:41
whistler to drop me uh down at the leather ladder that is furthest away uh start
1:15:48
running around and pulling down the ladders yeah i’ve got this here so so that would be the south
1:15:56
western latin okay i want you to make a
1:16:05
here’s your choice strength times four or dex times five raw well my strength
1:16:12
at the moment is 25 so that would be a hundred
1:16:17
i think i’ll go for strength times four okay [Music]1:16:24
yeah i made it okay you are able to be dropped down
1:16:31
um successfully with this um a couple of the zombies do immediately
1:16:38
notice that there is a large worm
1:16:44
flying around and several of them start shooting their uh their bows
1:16:51
at wind whistler uh not noticing you immediately because you’re not as
1:16:56
interesting as the 12 meter long giant flying reptile
1:17:03
um imagine that i’m just gonna roll a bunch
1:17:09
of dice very quickly
1:17:14
one of the zombies breaks his bow okay
1:17:22
and colin pruitt approves and even the zombie that
1:17:30
got the special success fails to do any damage to wind whistler so there’s
1:17:36
like five zombies that have noticed wind whistler
1:17:42
and are responding there’s another 15 that are still focusing on the crowd down below the
1:17:48
gate none of the zombies are paying any attention to the little one-armed man
1:17:55
and i mean little in comparison to the 12 meter wound to the 12 meter long uh worm
1:18:02
and the worm uh and i i want to point this out about wind whistler wind whistler has
1:18:07
10 points of armor on every location
1:18:13
so what arrows you wouldn’t wish right can i change characters to be with
1:18:18
wouldn’t that be awesome to play whistler yeah really would so win whistler when whistler is just kind of
1:18:25
flying around here and um all i’m checking was checking to do is
1:18:31
see if i get a if it’s not a critical or a special i just ignore it and even if it’s a
1:18:37
special i probably can ignore it but wind whistler is just ignoring uh
1:18:42
ignoring this arrows are bouncing off it this is your situation here is he feeling hungry at all i mean he’s
1:18:49
uh you know monkeys oh zombies are kind of rot rotten
1:18:57
wind whistler has not made up his mind because you didn’t ask him to do anything
1:19:04
because apparently i suspect because you were so embarrassed by your bad grammar
1:19:10
yeah you didn’t actually ask you noticed this all you’ve asked when
1:19:15
whistler to do is drop you off here so when whistler’s uh uh bit here is he
1:19:22
wants to see what you guys are gonna do he’s gonna he’s happy to fly around on the top of the the tower but you
1:19:28
haven’t told him to do anything so he’s not gonna do anything okay so so okay windwith look here’s the
1:19:34
deal and if you know if he’s already dropped you off i will work on my wormish obviously
1:19:40
[Laughter] he’s still there though he’s still there he hasn’t
1:19:46
he hasn’t left but he’s not participating at all at this point um you tell me what you
1:19:53
want to do here would it be helpful for me to share the screen again for you uh phillip no i’m fine okay what are you gonna do
1:20:00
just take first i’ll just one by one sort of dismantle the ladders first okay honestly don’t notice me
1:20:08
um you know
1:20:16
okay me which one you’re starting with let me keep in mind where they all are i’m sharing the screen here
1:20:23
uh i’ll probably start with the with the eastern one there
1:20:31
and just wanting to make sure you guys know this is where the zombies are you gonna start with this one here
1:20:36
yep by the way is the mouse showing up and if they don’t if they don’t notice me i’ll sneak along
1:20:44
you know along the parapet there’s a duck under the parapet sort of hoping they
1:20:50
don’t notice me do you have any stealth skills at all cobras well i should have but we’ll see
1:20:59
um move quietly is 48 plus 15 so that’s 63. okay that’s actually your
1:21:07
most important one here to please roll your move quietly because keep in mind the zombies are blind
1:21:15
yeah and they sort of see anyway they can sort of see uh
1:21:22
yeah just 62 160 what was it three
1:21:36
all right you are able
1:21:41
to knock down
1:21:48
this here
1:21:53
and that is about where you are right now okay so now what i want to know is do you
1:22:00
tell the what do you tell the rest of your crew i didn’t care i can’t tell them anything
1:22:08
they just haven’t
1:22:14
whistler is the problem spell won’t last long enough okay well neil what was your plan actually no
1:22:20
i take that back it’s listening in the distance i will cast it yeah i can hear him i’ll be down to one spell okay thank you nebraska what do
1:22:27
you tell your crew so okay there are 20 zombies in groups of fives they have
1:22:34
was it plate armor and self bows scale armor scale armor itself bows and
1:22:40
do they have swords or clubs or axes axe and axes
1:22:45
um the parapet is about a meter high and something tells me that they might
1:22:52
not be able to get off it if i pull down all the ladders so that’s what i’m doing at the moment
1:22:58
and windows has them distracted uh for the moment or some of them at least so um garen do
1:23:05
you want to jump up on each side and just go inwards and then have the others attack
1:23:11
i think that’s a good plan okay so yeah if you jump onto the parapet
1:23:17
they won’t be able to leave it if i’m successful
1:23:23
okay the last so where are you going to run to
1:23:29
Kulbrast or are you going to wait for them to jump up along the parapet uh to the northern
1:23:36
ladder there yeah okay i would like you to try a move quietly
1:23:41
okay uh 26 yeah it’s it’s normal normal success
1:23:49
okay let’s see if any of them notice you
1:24:00
all right at this point two of the zombies notice you is you
1:24:06
basically run right in front of them um and they notice that there’s a human a
1:24:13
living human running uh running over to the other um
1:24:18
uh ladder now the sucky thing for the zombies are they’ve got to make a decks roll to get
1:24:25
off this um parapet so you guys can remind me on that and
1:24:32
the reason i say that’s sucky for the zomb the zombies is well they’re zombies
1:24:38
dexterity it’s not their highest skills what you’re saying dexterity is definitely not their highest skill and
1:24:44
they have a dex i’m just trying to pull up my sheet here because i had it right in front of me
1:24:57
they have a very mediocre dexterity let me stop sharing that’ll make it
1:25:03
easier they have so they they they have an eight dexterity
1:25:11
so they are the i’m just gonna try the two zombies that notice you
1:25:16
are going to try to see if they can jump off the parapet without falling flat on their face okay
1:25:26
so zombie one 63 falls flat on his face
1:25:36
no tries to jump over but these are all they’re all kind of mummified zombie
1:25:42
things they don’t have a lot of coordination he jumps and falls and just flops down and that the
1:25:48
bummer about this is he’s still got to make a dex times five to get up
1:25:54
and whatnot so okay zombie number two let’s see if zombie number two is more capable here
1:26:01
zombie number two also falls and flops down on the ground
1:26:06
so here’s your situation here now the rest of the zombies are beginning to
1:26:12
notice that there’s something going on here um but there’s also this massive folk
1:26:19
down below linda and gina what is your main group going to do here
1:26:24
down below and then we’re going to deal with the leap [Music]1:26:31
are you guys just sitting there are you going to shoot arrows at them pointlessly um
1:26:37
but shooting arrows pointlessly at them does nothing actually i tried to convince
1:26:43
them that they should actually go to the other world
1:26:48
you’re at the bottom below a castle yes yeah um
1:26:56
i don’t know i mean what shall we do i mean we wait until we can leap uh yeah honestly i’ve i’ve kind of been
1:27:03
waiting for the for nisk and uh are you starting to get out you still want the crossbow
1:27:08
to shoot because you want covering a distraction fire okay so you guys are keeping up the fire rings
1:27:14
which i i’m not gonna require that you i’ll let your favorite player character or follow-up i i i will sing
1:27:20
the ride of the valkyries or something like that nothing special okay
1:27:28
um here’s the situation here now comes nisk and guerin they leap up
1:27:34
cold breast you’re able to destroy that um last ladder if you want
1:27:41
yeah that’s a good idea garen and nisk with a successful
1:27:47
dex times five you land on the top of the parapet
1:27:54
if you fail that you land on the floor
1:28:01
six times five forty-seven that’s success okay you you managed to successfully
1:28:08
land your leap on the top of the wall there claudia looks sad
1:28:13
i no i i passed but very very very close to failing you succeeded
1:28:19
as well so you guys let’s again go to the the share screen um
1:28:28
and let me make sure that that you guys can see the situation here
1:28:35
so we have this group of zombies here
1:28:43
a zombie here a zombie here then we’ve got
1:28:52
[Music] nisk here is that correct sure
1:28:59
and we’ve got garen here and we’ve got coal breast here
1:29:07
all right i think we got a combat going on finally down below somewhere over around here we’ve got
1:29:15
gina and we’ve got um ankala and anyone else now i’m gonna give a
1:29:23
tactical idea to gina and incalla it might be a really good
1:29:30
idea now to cast any spells that you possibly can on the zombies that are in the
1:29:36
center so let’s just go around and and figure out what people are going to do
1:29:42
the zombies attack at strike rank uh seven [Music]1:29:49
but only one can attack nisk and only one can attack garen and the two zombies
1:29:55
on the ground are gonna try to get themselves up as many zombies as can will try
1:30:02
that notice what’s going on are gonna try to jump down onto the roof because once they’re
1:30:09
on the roof they have a lot more mobility yeah but i tried when somebody tries to jump down that’s when
1:30:14
i tr then i use my spell turn on dead so what you want to do this round is
1:30:20
do uh turn undead onto how many um can i do all four in one round or can
1:30:26
i do it one per round you can do all four at once because i can’t stack it so yes with the four closest to the roof
1:30:33
[Music] okay so basically this group
1:30:39
here yep does sleep work on zombies no
1:30:45
no they don’t sleep no i kind of and they don’t have
1:30:53
intelligence either well normally they don’t but
1:30:59
these zombies seem to have uh is there uh what do i see of the
1:31:04
power are there any there with power none have power not have power okay we can try to befuddle them okay so
1:31:12
you’re gonna try to befuddle one of them yeah okay so uh cole brost what are you going to try to do
1:31:18
um i’m going to cast a speed dart on my javelin and throw it at one of the zombies
1:31:26
okay important question to you colbrast are you going to throw it at one of the ones that are down prone on the ground
1:31:32
or one of the ones that are on the wall probably difficult to actually hit one that’s lying on the ground i would
1:31:38
imagine um i mean this one here is only these
1:31:44
um uh each hex so the question is if i go up to one that’s lying on the
1:31:50
ground it’s a normal javelin throw if it just sort of spear it from above
1:31:56
you can throw it at a short range okay well then i’ll try one on the ground
1:32:02
because it’s only that one is only about um uh nine meters away from you
1:32:08
okay so that’s um it’s at the look javelin it’s 85 110
1:32:18
and 125. okay so we got a good idea here i’m
1:32:24
going to just knock down by strike ranks and go down starting at
1:32:30
strike rank 1 is gina because she’s doing a uh turn undead spell against four
1:32:38
zombies gina would you roll against your death rune
1:32:45
yes roll the 49 i have a death run of 95. you have a death rune of 90 okay wow
1:32:54
ouch now is where it gets ugly what is your power my power is 17. you have a power of 17.
1:33:04
you have
1:33:12
power of 17 you have an 85 chance of overcoming the
1:33:20
um [Music] magic points of any of them okay so one
1:33:27
number one you’ve got a success i’m just gonna go down and i’ll tell you what the result is 73
1:33:38
success number three
1:33:43 - that’s i said an 85 chance at 85. so it’s all good okay
1:33:50
the last one is 16 a special okay so i want to tell you
1:33:57
what happens immediately but i’m not out of broon points guys this was it this was your you fired your
1:34:04
full um everything you can but it’s everything you can is a big deal
1:34:12
because what you managed to do in in one fell shot is
1:34:19
three of the undead run away they will run away
1:34:27
if possible if not um well they can’t run away they can jump
1:34:33
off the ledge they have a terrible problem the undead is uh one of them is paralyzed
1:34:41
and immobile for 20 melee rounds yeah for 20 mealy rounds
1:34:48
totally immobile all four of the ones because they have to jump off the parapet in order to do this they can’t
1:34:54
just easily fillet for all four of them are just rooted
1:35:00
to the spot now this is a really good thing for you guys
1:35:06
because it divides the um uh it divides them and i i know i still
1:35:12
have this here so this is for immobile then we’ve got over here we’ve
1:35:21
got two on the ground so that’s six so that means that we have here
1:35:30
seven zombies [Music] and here we have seven zombies
1:35:40
yep and the reason that’s very very good for you guys is is that’s actually within the range
1:35:47
of something you might be able to handle with the three of you guys plus any spell support
1:35:53
yeah so let’s now keep going down um rounds who goes strike rank two
1:36:01
how fast are you with your javelin that’s two yeah okay 125. and
1:36:10
guess what you get to add 50 because it’s prone and on the ground okay so that’s probably a special
1:36:18
44 uh from no yeah just not still not a special god damn
1:36:24
anyway okay fine so that’s one d6 plus three then wendy
1:36:32
remember remember we got your damage wrong on the javelin yeah
1:36:38
corrected it before 2010 plus one okay plus half your strength bonus so
1:36:45
that’s d3 plus three okay
1:36:51
so that’s uh a one on the tens that’s two uh pointless four
1:36:59
seven it doesn’t even get through its armor yeah and the zombie is trying to get itself
1:37:05
up this is just embarrassing all right strike rank four i think maybe
1:37:10
i have uh i’m casting a spell and a deck strike rank too and so is the fetch how strong is the
1:37:18
spell that’s a two point so it’s a four then yeah strike rank four okay go for it first it’s me
1:37:26
okay what’s wrong i just make it um where’s my d20
1:37:34
no okay i can’t find my d20 okay that’s a zero zero one
1:37:43
which would be a one on a d20 because i’m i couldn’t find my d20 so i’ll be dividing my d hundred okay that’s a
1:37:51
critical on the power resistance roll okay what spell
1:37:57
are you casting the funnel so they can just cast a hey which side is it on is it on the
1:38:02
nisk side or the guerin side nisk side okay
1:38:09
so um nisk i’m gonna make this easier here
1:38:20
there’s now you know you guys are beginning to take it down let’s
1:38:26
see what happens when there’s actually a fight but there’s not only six zombies here plus one befuddled
1:38:34
and then it’s the fetch cast fetch
1:38:41
and the fetch fails okay i think we’re ready for what strike rank
1:38:47
do you attack at uh garen what’s going on what i’m on strike rank four
1:38:53
oh my gosh okay this time uh iron sword strike round four
1:39:01
let’s use six normally yeah wow i’m five right now because i got
1:39:06
mobility hey it’s gonna try to pair you with its large wooden shield
1:39:14
uh well i rolled a 36 against 100
1:39:21
you have a 100 chance uh yeah with with a with the sword i do indeed
1:39:26
okay let’s see if it parries it’s surprisingly skilled
1:39:35
and it does parry how much damage can you do uh well i’ve
1:39:42
got um a true sword on so that’s what you could
1:39:49
do it’s worth rolling yeah so uh
1:39:55
is five plus one d4 three so that’s eight plus one nine
1:40:01
uh then i just double that for true sword don’t i so 18. okay you don’t get through but
1:40:09
you damage its shield
1:40:14
so you know you might eventually splinter its shield i’m gonna handle its attack against you
1:40:21
okay i will parry and it succeeds as do i
1:40:29
not very well what are you appearing with uh large
1:40:36
shield okay it doesn’t manage to get through so you block it here so we’ve got a good fight going on here
1:40:42
over there nisk you attack it okay five and then i’m on an 11.
1:40:49
broadsword that’s a success oh it’s um minus 38 i think how about 138.
1:40:57
oh i missed okay
1:41:06
okay that’s 18 points to the sixth
1:41:12
18 points to the left leg um that is not actually you’re going to
1:41:20
hate this that is not an um 18 points yep that is just exactly enough for
1:41:28
it to be forced um to the ground on its left leg
1:41:36
so what goes on then with the re it’s going to still slash at you okay it’s at minus 37
1:41:45
is that how good your parry is i’ll be 137.
1:41:51
i miss with the 71. okay i succeed with a 43 so it’s a regular
1:41:56
success so i think i’m not even sure what that does i think
1:42:03
i i damage this weapon you do
1:42:10
that’ll be nine points
1:42:20
okay i get and it’ll be who 12 points i think
1:42:28
okay to where the four
1:42:35
he’s one legged on a on a one meter thing here so yeah so the what what goes on now
1:42:43
is the zombie behind him just pushes him over
1:42:48
uh off the thing okay they’re zombies
1:42:55
so um and
1:43:00
so we currently have five zombies here
1:43:13
we have a zombie down here on the ground
1:43:24
um we’ve got a zombie here a zombie there and a bunch of the zombies are going to
1:43:30
try to jump off the three of the zombies here are going to try to jump down
1:43:35
for the zombies are going to try to jump down
1:43:42
okay so towards Kulbrast
1:43:49
one zombie successfully jumps down oh wow there’s a successfully jumped
1:43:57
right there there’s one successfully jumped down zombie
1:44:10
um [Music] one injures itself it manages to fall so
1:44:17
it do such a spectacularly bad job so there’s another one down on the ground here
1:44:23
um i’m not very good with these guys am i
1:44:29
and the other one also falls on it so there’s actually four zombies on the ground here as
1:44:37
they’re trying to i mean they’re they’re more or less indestructible here over on um garan’s side
1:44:46
one more falls on his face one is standing up two are standing up three are standing
1:44:54
up four are standing up what was that about you not being very good rolling for
1:45:00
these guys so i want to give you guys um
1:45:06
this is the tactical situation here two zombies here
1:45:12
and on the ground there’s one plus what did i say four are you up above cobras with us
1:45:21
no no i’m i’m on the on the thing there below yeah where are
1:45:28
all our guys they could run up the you know the spiral staircase
1:45:33
no there’s a door and everything then they’ve got guys down below okay so here’s the situation here guys i
1:45:40
want you to to to understand this nisk you’re fighting there are two zombies right near where
1:45:46
you are only one can fight at a time garen there are two zombies right by you
1:45:52
only one can fight at a time Kulbrast where you are they’re all
1:46:04
zombies one right near you and three over here yep
1:46:10
and two lying on the ground still and three lying on the ground three lying on the ground okay
1:46:19
so i want a new statement of intent then there are four immobile and one befuddled so so far you guys are
1:46:26
handling in this fight but there’s a sh there’s just a ton of zombies aren’t there
1:46:35
so let’s have a what you guys plan on let’s just start with um let’s start with gina do you have any
1:46:41
plans i’m just thinking i mean let’s start with somebody else
1:46:47
i’m i need a little bit more idea this guy suspect yours is pretty straightforward nisk is going to try and wipe out the
1:46:53
ones he has here and then be able to um put a rope down for people to climb up yes please
1:46:58
garen how about you i’m thinking i might try knocking the ones i’m
1:47:06
fighting over the edge with my shield rather than hacking them down with my sword so
1:47:11
trying to do intentional knockback yeah how good are you with your shield
1:47:17
100 okay i have it i have a question i mean they
1:47:23
are not really intelligent and so on can i give a speech
1:47:30
they’re not paying any attention to you gina i’m sorry not even if i tell them about the nice
1:47:36
table where they get food and drinks and these molds of thai core attack
1:47:42
apparently they have no class another question is any one of the
1:47:47
zombies up here the the guy who seemed to be quite intelligent
1:47:53
uh no no i’d see him there’s none here with any power so
1:47:59
cobras what are you gonna do
1:48:04
i will so the one thing i imagine you don’t want to have happen is to get surrounded by
1:48:12
uh four zombies that is absolutely correct um how fast are zombies
1:48:19
they are slower than a human for instance you would be able to run to one of the ladders and get up before the
1:48:24
zombies could get to you yeah could i run all across the the castle to the staircase past the
1:48:32
zombies you can move eight meters i think that’s one thing it might take you two rounds to
1:48:38
get there
1:48:44
okay or you could get over here this round
1:48:52
i think i’ll just get up on the ladder where i’m standing well okay yeah i’ll
1:48:58
get up to the to the back ladder here and and go up here and put it sort of take pull it up
1:49:07
okay i mean the ladder where i’m standing is
1:49:12
what has already been dismantled so yes you can pick that up and put it back into the walls i’m going to run to the
1:49:18
other one okay um and
1:49:24
uh and call on gina what’s your plan is it possible to uh call to win whistler to be able to be
1:49:32
dropped off on the roof
1:49:37
kind of a question for cole brast why uh yeah i’m sure it is
1:49:45
he’s the nearest to when whistler pays the most attention to cobras okay so while i’m running i’ll
1:49:53
i’ll try to see gold rare michigan i mean it must work once in a lifetime
1:50:02
uh no he’s trying to yell out at it but every time he does it he screws up the
1:50:09
declension and uh when whistler forces him to repeat it
1:50:14
while i’m running now there’s a good whistler he’s a pedantic old goat okay
1:50:24
but i’ll keep trying to get him to go down and get some sort of you know get in color
1:50:31
yeah how about you gina yeah the point is i’m actually really useless and i had
1:50:36
a direct fight do you have any spirit magic i can make a i don’t know
1:50:47
i’m just checking how about you’ve already taken out more than
1:50:52
anyone else in the group you know yes and i how about i sit down under
1:50:58
tree and look actually like spectacle and maybe sing something to make you
1:51:04
braver could try to open the door
1:51:10
i have no skill i mean i can actually open the door maybe it’s open we can send the other warriors to
1:51:17
support you there right you’ve got a whole pile of troops have the cross ewan and caller are the only ones down
1:51:24
there i i it’s not ness i tried to stop me so gina is going to head forward towards
1:51:30
the door yep i’ll follow gina on that one we can try to get in
1:51:39
this is now going to be getting to a level of complexity i would like to abstract slightly
1:51:46
if that’s okay with everybody here yeah sure instead what i’m going to do is we’re going to abstract this out
1:51:53
to um i’m going to extract this out to a handful of rules we’re not going to
1:51:59
require uh breaking this down to to each and
1:52:04
um every round of combat because there’s you know we’re we’re now dealing with uh 20
1:52:09
people on each side and that’s just cuckoo crazy so instead what i’m going to do is each
1:52:17
of us are going to have a a contest here
1:52:24
and based on how it goes is going to be how it works for for your players and also gives me an
1:52:30
idea of how many of your followers are going to get killed in the process so we’ve got the battle
1:52:36
going up above and then we’ve got ankala and gina rushing the rest of the group
1:52:41
into the first floor so which should we handle first let’s handle the top first
1:52:46
okay okay right so let’s start with you nest sure
1:52:52
[Music] what do you want i would like what your
1:52:59
basic combat skill uh combat parry skill is it’s 137.
1:53:05
okay motorola yep please roll
1:53:13
um dropping off it is it is a success
1:53:20
all right so the battle for you up above is it is long and brutish
1:53:29
um but it is going to be for you the the fighting is going to be
1:53:35
basically successfulness uh i say basically because you’re not
1:53:40
going to come out unscathed sure
1:53:47
you’re going to take a to your left arm armor protects
1:53:54
you’ll take eight points of damage armor protects though okay so he’s
1:54:00
unscathed do you have any points of oh because you have shield right we have a shield one
1:54:05
otherwise okay let’s jump to you karen similar thing okey-dokey our scale of a hundred
1:54:15
fifty fifty okay similar deal you are your
1:54:21
fight there will ultimately be successful
1:54:26
to your left arm
1:54:33
with my shield no no no this is just we’re abstracting it all okay you’re
1:54:38
gonna take one good hit for
1:54:43
12 points of damage to your left arm armor protects oh that’s smaller than
1:54:49
i’ve got you had four points of shield uh four points protection from the shield remember oh and yeah oh yeah so you’ll still take
1:54:56
damage but it won’t take two damage but it’s okay all right so you guys have let’s
1:55:02
finally go to you colbrast
1:55:09
what do i roll uh roll against your combats close combat skill
1:55:15
but i was planning to actually throw you know well then your shield your spears okay so that’s uh
1:55:24
speed dart is 10 is it the temp temporal is 10 milli rounds or 20.
1:55:31
all right you can roll for that one it’s the same one don’t yeah just roll okay what i’m trying to
1:55:37
do is just abstract it out what’s your skill with jefferlin uh the normal javelin
1:55:42
skill is 120. yeah so just roll this here
1:55:49
65 from 120 okay for you Kulbrast what happens is
1:55:55
you throw your javelin you take down uh you take down one with
1:56:00
your javelin uh you’ve already thrown a jab you’ve already thrown two javelins haven’t you no one javelin
1:56:08
you throw another one uh you’re you end up getting stuck in
1:56:13
close combat okay you get hit once in your left leg
1:56:20
do you have shield hit me on the left arm as well you know
1:56:27
you get hit in the left arm for eight points okay
1:56:33
did you did you not say left arm no left leg and you get hit in the right leg
1:56:44
for seven points okay
1:56:51
right but you guys got this big fight going um going on and
1:56:58
i would say you guys managed to take down another six of the zombies and that opens the
1:57:05
door i’m gonna let me just handle the fight up going up on the top you guys managed to take down
1:57:11
another six of the zombies um or demora to mobilize them to the
1:57:17
point where you’re you’re able to have control over the situation
1:57:22
however i would say another six of the zombies
1:57:29
rush down down the stairs during all this fighting
1:57:38
okay they sort of like sneak away not snake they’re they’re heading down below okay
1:57:45
so but where you guys end up the battle um and are you damaged at all cole
1:57:51
breast uh nope nope well i mean yeah we lost hit points but
1:57:57
how many hit points so you’ve lost a few hit points you’ve lost a few points gina and ankala it’s a different
1:58:03
situation you there’s 15 of you
1:58:08
all that rush into the ground floor and um into the ground floor there are
1:58:16
another 10 of these zombies [Music]1:58:21
now um there’s 15 of you all there’s 10 of the zombies do we want to
1:58:27
play um do we want to play this out carefully and lengthy or are we fine with my
1:58:33
abstraction please abstract abstraction is good okay and calla i want you to roll your best
1:58:40
combat skill gina i want you to roll your best combat
1:58:45
skill yeah almost special but wasn’t
1:58:59
and i’m fighting with my digger did you actually succeed yes i have a 59
1:59:06
and roll the 58 ouch ouch i i don’t want you to roll
1:59:13
any damage claudia you will take some damage in the fight why because i’m abstracting it
1:59:22
but i was successful yeah as were they
1:59:28
you all will succeed on the battle but gina will take six hit points of
1:59:35
damage
1:59:42
to the left leg
1:59:48
my leg has four points so it’ll take you down onto this in
1:59:55
collar yeah it’s a very good success one point away from a special you know
2:00:02
the sad thing is they got a special against you no oh that is sad hit the right
2:00:08
place that’s all i’m saying yeah but that’s that’s very important to
2:00:16
me you mean not certainly not
2:00:22
points to damage to the left arm ah that’s that clunks off my shield and my protection and my armor
2:00:28
all right so i i want to get you guys rush in but it’s much more of a meat grinder for you all yeah right you
2:00:36
managed to force um you have a bloody fight of 15 of your guys against 10 zombies
2:00:44
yet take down the 10 zombies five of your followers though go
2:00:49
down in the fight dead or injured i’m going to tell you right now we’ll
2:00:55
just handle this out this is the danger of letting the gm abstract it off
2:01:02
okay def i feel it’s it’s worth telling you now if you hurt hat hole i’m getting on the
2:01:08
first flight of berlin that might be a while though that might be a while
2:01:15
oh it’s going to be a long simmering revenge yes a lot of time to plan it okay so we got
2:01:21
waha tall we got origaro i need to write these down right now
2:01:26
we got um got them all right here one two three four healing down there
2:01:35
there’s a chance to heal him there’s a chance there is
2:01:41
a chance
2:01:48
okay one two three four
2:01:59
okay gina or girl goes down in the fight
2:02:06
i heal him and okay we’re gonna have to deal with this in a second okay or girl you did this
2:02:14
deliberately no i didn’t yeah oh no filter
2:02:22
he can heal himself though i have to grab a pen
2:02:29
symbol
2:02:42
and josh
2:02:50
okay for each one of these i’m gonna roll a magic 1d uh
2:02:56
uh 1d6 one to two dead oh two to three i pick a location that’s
2:03:04
maimed five to six they’re just down in combat because um
2:03:11
uh they’ve reached they’ve gone down to two hit points okay okay or girl
2:03:18
what did i say one two dead three four something’s maimed yeah okay
2:03:25
or girl you went down to the combat because your left leg got named
2:03:34
i have a heel okay we’ll just deal with that here maimed right right we just want to write this down maimed
2:03:40
left leg okay phil char
2:03:51
phil char you went down to one hit point okay just general yep
2:03:58
unpleasantness symbol i’m sorry symbol oh come on
2:04:06
symbol is dead oh that’s too bad josh barr come on
2:04:14
total loyalty to you and caller yeah for loyalty
2:04:20
you should be dead i mean
2:04:26
goes down the white bull totally loyal member of your group goes down and is also dead
2:04:36
what yeah you could fought 10 zombies
2:04:41
this is the danger of abstracting here we could we can next time we’re going to say no
2:04:47
on every on all abstraction we’ll do a round by round
2:05:02
if anybody has a heel body that can save one of the dead people
2:05:10
or heal wound but i’m gonna require if it’s heal wound i’m gonna require you to
2:05:15
back it up with at least eight magic points
2:05:21
yeah i i i think i owe joe far to try to do that
2:05:26
okay yeah so knock off a run point and kala and knock off eight magic
2:05:33
points yes you should probably do the same for the
2:05:38
other guy too for uh if we can we don’t want anyone to
2:05:43
die let him die or girl how about you
2:05:48
you need to do claudia you also need to do eight to be able to keep his leg from being
2:05:53
maimed yeah i have a heel do you have any room points left i do
2:06:00
not need a room i’m a moment he’s not dying it’s only his leg yes so it’s a different thing so you’re
2:06:08
going to have a main flag no i can put i can put my heal spell in with a lot of
2:06:14
points no why do i have to have a room point for it when the others are dying
2:06:21
to keep them alive and and over is actually only have a in her leg like i have do you have any
2:06:29
room points left no of course not so you’re going to require the heat the regular heel spirit
2:06:34
magic spell how good of a heel spirit magic spell do you have i have a yield one and i can pump in
2:06:41
no you can recast it about
2:06:55
we also have people down there with heal wound who have room points yeah
2:07:02
right some followers just decide he doesn’t need the leg
2:07:08
i only can curl one leg yeah so if you want to do it you can ask them
2:07:14
i mean i’m assuming that none of us at the top have enough time we’d have to know you none of you guys on the top are going to be able to deal with that
2:07:20
that’s fine i can pitch it up
2:07:26
all right um is anybody down below are you gonna ask anybody to help out
2:07:32
poor um phil char and symbol symbol is dead unless somebody is
2:07:37
willing to cast a big uh heal wound spell keep in mind symbols
2:07:43
only friend in the group is phil char yeah and he doesn’t have it and he’s
2:07:49
unconscious yeah so i think
2:07:57
yeah i don’t think i don’t i also look at it the person who’s got the most magic is mysterious head taker she’s probably
2:08:04
not going to do it for them and she would do it for probably a Humakti or an orlanthi orlanthi or a brother but not for them
2:08:12
so poor symbol is dead it’s fine yeah joshua is alive but it took a lot
2:08:19
of your magic didn’t it in kala yeah uh i’m i’m happy
2:08:24
i have some magic crystal and stuff because this is it’s not good
2:08:31
all right but josh far is alive phil char is at one hit point people will heal him back to
2:08:37
consciousness yeah and he can also heal himself after that well he has to be conscious
2:08:43
yeah i mean off these and orgaro is maimed in his left leg
2:08:51
he can still fulfill his duties so wow yeah you know as opposed to other
2:08:57
people who can’t anymore don’t express too much sympathy the point is these scars you can be
2:09:05
proud of them this is the situation where you guys are you guys have taken control of the
2:09:12
ground the the ground entry which i’ll describe um later there and you’ve taken control of
2:09:19
the roof but what situation what condition do you guys consider your group to be in right
2:09:25
now i i i have actually minus two in my leg ah you probably need to kill yourself as
2:09:32
well yes and and what is more the the the clever guy seems to be missing from the dead
2:09:38
zombies yes yes so there must be more somewhere here yeah yeah we i think we’re pretty
2:09:46
beat up i can tell you what’s happening i can tell you guys what’s happening below i just can’t tell them anything
2:09:52
just to give you guys context i can hear what they’re saying but i can’t um oh um
2:10:00
so it sounds like that you know we can also call over and stuff like that um if we want we can basically
2:10:08
take the loop from what we have here and take it back and then go and attack
2:10:14
again because most people have already used up most of their power yeah right yeah
2:10:21
then i mean how how the big question is how fast do they infect new zombies and
2:10:26
how fast can we and who else takes advantage we can keep going i mean i’m pretty confident how many here
2:10:32
how many room points do you guys got left i have three left which i’m you know saving for
2:10:39
the boss i’m out two that’s our problem i mean i’ve still
2:10:45
got i’ve still put quite a few magic points into into um true swords so it’s it’ll it can last a
2:10:51
while but you know if we if we press on but if we take an extended break now
2:11:00
but then we start all over again so i think this is a good stopping point here because you guys
2:11:06
have a gut check that you need to make which is do you guys first off do you guys re-link together and where
2:11:13
because you’ve got in between the roof and here you’ve got another floor
2:11:21
in between okay and then you’ve got whatever is on this ground floor okay which i have to describe to it i
2:11:28
think this is a good what do you guys agree is this a good stopping point here yeah
2:11:34
um and and this is one of the things is is i find
2:11:40
um and this is just a limitation of the online and maybe this is why
2:11:47
something like um roll 20 or whatever might be good for combat heavy sessions is is that without
2:11:53
a map it’s these are it’s in many ways easier
2:11:58
for me to abstract these things and the abstraction is just basically me trying to get a gut feel for how many
2:12:04
criticals and specials one side or the other is having
2:12:12
so well story-wise it makes sense because you know your top warriors were upstairs
2:12:18
yeah and they were basically did a lot better job of carving through they’re not actually hurt um but there is your
2:12:26
yeah you’re down for people even though josh farr is not dead um
2:12:32
he’s still pretty badly banged up um symbol is dead phil char is badly
2:12:39
banged up orgaro is memed that’s four of your um so you’re down to
2:12:49
to nine people downstairs and you’ve got three upstairs
2:12:54
yeah that’s pretty so this is a good place to think through
2:13:01
um think through and move forward about whether you guys want to pursue things further or beat
2:13:08
another retreat uh and offer more to the gods but i’ll let you
2:13:14
guys decide that in the next session because it’s already just about midnight
2:13:19
so i think it is a good place to wrap up i want to thank everybody for watching this i want to thank all the uh
2:13:26
you players for having a great session and tune in next week thank you
