The Manse Macabre (concluded)

[Big Bene]

So far for all this fancy armor. Hurgar should have saved the 250 bucks and stayed with 'is trusty olde loincloth...
Hurgar attack waggytail greenskin to south again:

Big Bene rolled 3 6-sided dice:

Fimir defense:

Big Bene rolled 3 6-sided dice:

Hurgar smash again!
Dat's for ticklin' me!
Now, see you later, two-legged alligator. Movement:

Big Bene rolled 2 6-sided dice:

Hurgar goes to sout-west corner of west room. Time to let skinny-friends team up again. I'm looking at you, slayer-dwarf.

[mikemacdee]

Hurgar:



Hurgar the Brash deftly cleaves the injured Fimir as he backs out of the room, retreating to the southwest corner to lick his wounds. A ripe THUD announces the Fimir's final collapse.

The other heroes gape in horror and surprise, amazed that the barbarian is somehow still alive. Hurgar misinterprets this as admiration and grins through bloody teeth.

[Daedalus]

Who you callin' skinny? Look at my belly...just LOOK at it! Since Kili has been called out, I'll have him move now.

Movement:

Daedalus rolled 2 6-sided dice:

Looks like his foot feels better. He moves south of the Fimir and growls unintelligibly like a cave bear as he swings his sword with both hands (beserk).

Attack:

Daedalus rolled 3 6-sided dice:

Fimir defense:

[Sjeng]

I'm gonna heal you later Hurgar, but right now I can be of better use with my staff. I roll movement:

Sjeng rolled 2 6-sided dice:

I walk up to the door, and attack the fimir diagonally with my staff (just 1 measly American die, sigh)

Sjeng rolled 1 6-sided dice:

Argh. See, that's what happens with this lousy American equipment. Give me sturdy European staves anytime.

The NA version probably recognized that a stick wouldn't do the same damage as a short blade.

Kili:

The trollslayer's valiant swing is just as valiantly blocked by the Fimir's hammer. This one seems to have a bit more fighting spirit than the first...

Eddy Wizzard:

Eddy follows up with a thrust to the creature's eye, but this too is parried. The beast snarls agitated challenges at Hurgar in daemonic tongue -- he smells the barbarian's blood and wants to finish him.

[The Road Warrior]

"I'm fairly certain I had the Earth spells" Caranthir grumbles as he passes Eddy on his way into the room.
I'll stick with the water spells

Caranthir Movement

The Road Warrior rolled 2 6-sided dice:

Well that's enough movement to get me to the square North of the Fimir.

Attacks:

The Road Warrior rolled 2 6-sided dice:

Defends:

The Road Warrior rolled 3 6-sided dice:

Maybe I should stick to searching for treasure as the combat dice do not like me at the moment.

[mikemacdee]

"I'm fairly certain I had the Earth spells" Caranthir grumbles as he passes Eddy on his way into the room.

You do. I even posted a reminder but he must not have seen that post.

Caranthir:



Caranthir moves into position, but fails to land a hit on the beast!

[Big Bene]

Who you callin' skinny? Look at my belly...just LOOK at it!

Slayer-dwarf not be angry.
Skinny-friends is name for southerners who fight with Hurgar. Slayer-dwarf will admit that 'is tummy, impressive as is, is not enough to raise the - what do ya call it? avatar? uber-rage? ... the standard, of the gorup very much above skinny.

So, let's fix this:

Sorry about the wrong spell list, Sjeng. I was pressed for time and couldn't find the chosen spells from the beginning of the thread--I simply copied the list from the other Wizard and hoped for the best. I'll PM the correct list to ya soon.

As a pennance, I did find something to help out with that lousy NA staff. If you look closely, carved at one end in tiny script "MADE IN CATHAY."

oh, and is the staff I can buy the European or the Afric... er American one? (1 or 2 dice). And can I buy the European cloak of protection and bracers for extra defense too?

Sjeng: equipping doesn't take an action, you just can't do it more than once a turn -- so if Wizard switches from staff to dagger, then throws the dagger, he's unarmed 'til next turn. The equipment ought to be the American version, since that's what the Quest is balanced for...but I'll allow 1 item from the UK version since it seemed to take pity on the poor Orc bait...er, Wizard. Also agree with Wizard going last being strategically unsound -- I often have him go first.
EDIT: Actually, buy whatever. If things get too easy for you guys I'll just adjust the adventure on the fly.

well, unfortunately, the cloak is 350g, and the bracers are 200g, which is too much for me to buy a staff :\ (which is 100g). Can anyone spare 50g?
Better get that staff, and if I can't have the bracers, I'll get 6 extra daggers instead.

Fire, water and air it is then. Eddy Wizzard is ready.

I believe that entitles Eddy Wizzard another roll with an Attack die.

mikemacdee-
You'd better attack with that Fimir. Hurgar's counting skills caused him to attack early.

[Sjeng]

w00t! Eddy has a time-delay button on his staff, and the second die is rolling to a stop right now!

Sjeng rolled 1 6-sided dice:

.....obviously.
