The Manse Macabre (concluded)

[The Road Warrior]

Cape, anyone?

Is is too late for Hurgar to pass me this before I take my turn?

(If Caranthir wants it, we could roll some dice.)

You take it, do I get your shield?

Caranthir Movement:

The Road Warrior rolled 2 6-sided dice:

Caranthir moves towards the secret door.

Hurgar, turn 27 (cont'd):

Hurgar wipes his mouth with the cape and tosses it to Kili.

Caranthir, turn 27:



Caranthir moves toward the secret door, but pauses to make a hopeful "gimme" gesture to Kili.

Cape, anyone?

I thought passing objects between heroes does not count as an action and thus is not part of the normal "turn order".
"Cape anyone" was really meant as an offer to give it to anyone who wants.
But if Zargon thinks differently, that's OK by me. So Hurgar has given it to Kili and it's up to him now to handle it.

[mikemacdee]

As BigBene said, Kili's got it now (as I confirmed in my last post). He'll toss it to you this round unless he wants to use it on the other side of the door, seeing as everyone else made poor movement rolls.

[The Road Warrior]

Actually you had said this at the end of hurgar's last turn...

Hurgar is positioned so his entire party is in line of sight. Anyone who wants the Cape, he can toss it to them on his next turn.

You have changed it since I asked the question. As I didn't even make it to the secret door it is better that Kili has it anyway

[mikemacdee]

Ugh, the confusing nature of play by post. I'm using Vassal next time.

Kili has the Cape of Fleetfoot and the Warhammer. It's his turn next, so he'll do what he wants with 'em.

[Daedalus]

Now I'm confused. I thought it was Eddy's turn, but no matter. First, Kili equips the warhammer, then he moves into the room and gives Eddy the cape. "Fasion and Mind magic really don't interest a Trollslayer's much--best you or Caranthir have it." Eddy can always give the cape to Caranthir on his turn, which I believe he hasn't yet taken. Kili then gives Caranthir his shield. Finally, he moves up to the secret door and opens it. If there's an issue of giving items and line of sight, instead move Kili two squares west. Either way, if nothing is revealed other than spaces, EoT 27.

Movement:

Daedalus rolled 2 6-sided dice:

lol I got fed up with the confusion over who has what, so I left it up to you to settle it. Though turn order is really sort of "first come, first served" in this adventure.

Kili, turn 27:

Kili readies the Warhammer for smashing undead heads, tossing the Cape of Fleetfoot to Eddy Wizzard as he passes, then handing his shield to Caranthir. He kicks in the secret door, revealing...



...an empty passage. Its former role as a regular hallway is evident: it is as wide as the other halls, but devoid of decorations except for the occasional wall-torch dimly lighting the way. The corridor seems to continue to the right...

[Sjeng]

If Caranthir wants to check out the corridor, he's free to do so, with the cape if he wants it. I'll wait a bit here. Where it's safe. Then I'll follow you

[mikemacdee]

We're just waiting on Eddy now. Caranthir tripped and didn't make it to the door.
