Postby Daedalus » April 23rd, 2014, 10:27 am

I'm looking for combat options against the entrants--thanks for the reminder, anyway.

Daedalus rolled 2 6-sided dice:
1, 5


Lucky for Kili he found a dealer with the gear he wants. "Sounds tinny, but it will do in a pinch. I'll take the shield."

I'm amending Kili's stats from my first post to reflect the purchase. Is there a house rule in effect for switching equipment that I should know about? He'll start with the warhammer.

Should I be rolling for equipment as well, or not because of his special rules and I'm not using a character I've used before?

And I was about to begin :roll:

To be honest I'm not entirely sure how to randomly generate equipment for your character because of his special rules. How about you take a broadsword, giving you one attack of 2 combat dice and 1 attack of 3 combat dice per turn. Does that sound fair?

The combatants play in order from highest score to lowest. If two Heroes roll the same score, the highest single die rolled starts first. If a Hero rolls the same score as one of the evil wizard's knights always goes first.

Seriously, if anyone can think of a better way of doing this let me know. I considered drawing monster cards, similar to drawing straws, with the Gargoyle going first and the goblin going last. Obviously that wouldn't work here.

Sir Lucien, Thorik, Godric and Sir Ragnar take up their places on the field and the Lord signals for combat to commence.

Eldron and Sir Itos tied in the round order so the first person to post gets position 1 in the turn order. The rest of the characters are in the correct order.

I've started Kili off with the shield equipped, not the warhammer. You may change which items you have equipped once per turn before attacking.

Sir Itos and Eldron are eager to find out if Thorik's blood truly runs black. Moments later we discover his blood is red, just like everyone else. There also seems to be a lot of it!

North all 4, west of Godric.
