...and the quest begins!

[Patroclus]

No, there is no need to go for the treasure room right now. It will have traps for sure. We could go for the treasure room only if the others run back for a wider room. But now it seems that the combat have began, so let’s finish it.

I think we should do as tasoe said. Me and Gernaldo hit and Gernaldo move to the north for letting you do the mind lock.

If all goes wrong throw a cloak of shadows in the square in the T junction, and two of us, one from the front and probably tasoe from the other side will block him from moving. So, all the others will go for the treasure room to steal the treasure. Inside the cloak of shadows we can’t attack or do damage, but we can block him if we stand on his adjacent squares.

For now, I think I will wait for your movements and I will play last.

Why do you want to swap Jason and Gernaldo round though?

No reason! I just thought jason should get the courage cause he's more fighter-like.
Gernaldo could get it and Jason deal with the goblin, that makes more sense.
So Jason will just move 1 S this turn so as to draw the goblin all the way East if it wants to attack him.

Yea I think it's better to attack now since I realised that we might loose the diagonal attack if we wait. I hadn't thought of that before.

If Jason moves south the goblin will get two attack dice instead of one. It might be worth Jason chasing after him?

[tasoe]

the goblin could stay one square beyond the last one, and attack jason diagonally with 2 dice and then Jason would have to go North to attack, thus having looked in the North corridor which we do not want (I guess).

[Gold Bearer]

I didn't think ranged weapons could attack diagonally?

Right, so Gernaldo needs to attack then move five squares away if he can just in case Mind Lock fails. Then Orthos attacks after he's mind locked. Maybe Jason should just stay put.

Anyway, ibagaza moves:

Original post: tasoe rolled 2 6-sided dice:

Full East and then full North as far as I can.

Done, no traps sprung.

Sir Jason took his turn? What he finally did?

[Gold Bearer]

I think I should cast Tempest this turn. That way Gernaldo can attack as soon as his defences are down and we can be sure that Ibagaza will be in position.

We'll get there in the end. I've never had such an in depth tactical discussion. Wait Mr Giant, we're deciding what we want to do!

Sir Jason took his turn? What he finally did?

No he hasn't done anything yet, he might might not move. Can goblin archers use their bows diagonally?

[Sotiris]

Can goblin archers use their bows diagonally?

Yes!

[Gold Bearer]

Can goblin archers use their bows diagonally?

Yes!

Well that's just cheating. Okay Jason moves 2S then. That way he's closer to the giant if the goblin stays put but he can still reach him if he attacks.

Orthos can attack now if I'm going to use Tempest this turn. We'll gain one, maybe two undefendable attacks that way. Orthos should maybe move two squares west and Gernaldo three squares north after they've attacked so they're sure to be out of range if Mind Lock fails.

Yes!

Well that's just cheating.

Ok, i see. You probably mean that there are 3 categories (instead of 2): melee, diagonally and range. Bows and crossbows belong to range weapons so an attack from any of the adjacent squares (diagonals included) is impossible. Deal! Let's try it!
