[08:57] *** alamark has joined #rpg2
[08:57] <Kasin> woo hoo
[08:57] <alamark> ping
[08:57] <Kasin> ack
[08:57] <GM> HI
[08:58] <Kasin> bot is in #dicerolls
[08:58] <Kasin> ok, shal we start?
[08:58] <Kasin> we were in the middle of a battl
[08:59] <GM> Sure were...
[09:00] <GM> You guys were on a keep..
[09:00] <Kasin> K&A on the top of the manin bulidin
[09:00] <Kasin> others outside, giants in courtyard and on walls throwing at outside pp
[09:01] <GM> Yep. Actions?
[09:01] <alamark> ooc:i'm currently rereading the lo
[09:01] <Kasin> ok
[09:02] <alamark> i was about to cast passwall on the gates to let the others throug
[09:02] <Kasin> occ: are there battlements on this wall? are they on both sides
[09:02] <Kasin> ooc: ie protection from inside and ou
[09:02] <alamark> ooc: left my char sheets in the car - br
[09:03] <GM> The roof you are on has no crenelations - or wall for that matter
[09:03] <GM> Then get them.
[09:03] <Kasin> no, the wall
[09:03] <Kasin> I meant the wall
[09:04] <GM> The wall has them, yes. Some of them are giant sized but the gaps in between have much smaller crenellations
[09:04] <Kasin> ooc: heh, ok Kasin will move down to one of the walls, on the wall itself (so she is protected by the crenllations from the giants inside
[09:05] <Kasin> and attack of course :
[09:05] <GM> Umm ... the wall has crenelations on the outside only. I've never actually heard of ones on the inside
[09:06] <GM> Then again, the wall is wide enough that giants in the courtyard would have a hard time attacking you anyway
[09:06] <Kasin> ok
[09:06] <alamark> ooc: note that passwall does a 5' wide x 8' hig x 10' deep hole, so the giants should have difficulty in going through it, but we won't :
[09:06] <GM> Yep. Your action was casting passwall on the gate, wasn't it
[09:07] <alamark> yes
[09:07] <GM> What is the range of passwall
[09:07] <alamark> 90 feet
[09:08] <GM> Hmm ... in that case you'll need to be in full sight of the courtyard and in the air. BTW, does the hole open away from the caster
[09:09] <alamark> what do you mean?
[09:09] <GM> What does it say about angling the open space? (i.e. does the 10' extend directly away from the caster
[09:09] <Kasin> do you want me to dcc you the players handbook in rtf format
[09:09] <GM> Yes please.
[09:10] <alamark> it doesn'[t say
[09:10] <GM> OK, then I assume you can angle it however you want
[09:10] <GM> Do you want to fly out and make yourself a target or fly onto the wall above the gate (and be a target on the way?
[09:11] <alamark> on the way
[09:11] <Kasin> Hannes, is it asking you to ack the request
[09:11] <GM> OK.
[09:11] <GM> No, but I got a message saying that I've ignored it
[09:12] <Kasin> I guess you need to turn that of
[09:12] <GM> I've changed my options. Try again
[09:12] <Kasin> should I ziip it?
[09:13] <GM> OK ... Kasin. Are you going straight for the nearest giant on the wall? Are you charging
[09:13] <GM> Actually, I've just realised I have the CD. Will install
[09:13] <Kasin> yes and no. moving so that she and Shotan are on the wall and protected firs
[09:13] <Kasin> ok
[09:14] <GM> OK. The turn....
[09:14] <GM> Both of you move into the air above the courtyard. Someone roll d10
[09:15] <alamark> 7
[09:16] <GM> You move into space and an Ogre below you shouts something. Immediately some giants hurl boulders - almost straight up - before a shout from inside the building stops the others
[09:16] <GM> Several boulders arc up, and then plummet back down
[09:16] <GM> One however strikes Shotan from below
[09:17] <GM> What is Shotans DV?
[09:17] <Kasin> 18
[09:17] <Kasin> ooc: well, Kasin isn't going to rub that one better..
[09:20] <Kasin> ooc: waiting...
[09:20] <alamark> ooc: ditto
[09:22] *** DM has joined #rpg2
[09:22] *** GM has quit IRC (Read error to GM[stm-44-84.tm.net.my/]: Connection reset by peer
[09:22] <DM> Aii!
[09:22] <DM> OK, Shotan takes 17 damage
[09:22] <DM> Guys? Did you get kicked off too
[09:22] <Kasin> no
[09:22] <alamark> no
[09:22] <DM> There are various screams from the courtyard below as the rocks plummet back down into the crowded space
[09:22] <Kasin> heh heh heh
[09:23] <DM> One of the screams is cut short with a wet SPLA
[09:23] <DM> Kasin, you've made it to the wall
[09:23] <alamark> I glance down
[09:24] <DM> Alamark, several of the giants appear to be following your path with readied boulders - they will probably throw as soon as it's safe (ie you're not directly overhead
[09:24] <alamark> I'll manage - assume stoneskin will keep them of
[09:25] <DM> Kasin, you ride along the wall to the nearest giant
[09:26] <Kasin> yep
[09:26] <DM> Alamark - Yes.
[09:26] <Kasin> and attack when I can
[09:26] <DM> OK, Kasin, you may make an attack with each sword. He will get the benefit or range and guarding, and attempt to club you first thoug
[09:26] <DM> BTW, riding roll for the hit on Shotan
[09:27] <DM> Kasin's DV? I'll write it down
[09:27] <Kasin> 19
[09:27] <Kasin> make by 27 or so :)
[09:28] <DM> The giant spanks you for 32 points of ouch
[09:28] <Kasin> mod wounded
[09:28] <DM> Alamark - you are just about at the wall when the giants throw
[09:28] <alamark> ok
[09:29] <DM> DV Alamark?
[09:29] <alamark> 20
[09:29] <Kasin> 44 damage
[09:29] <alamark> + stoneskin
[09:29] <alamark> does that help?
[09:29] <Kasin> hey, Alamark's DV is better than Kasin's :
[09:29] <alamark> how about protn from NM
[09:29] <Kasin> did you notice you can do dice rolls like d12+4 and it will work
[09:29] <DM> It saved you from a crit - just checking what it would have done
[09:30] <DM> Yep
[09:30] <Kasin> I assume Shotan's can't attac
[09:30] <DM> Lose 2 Stoneskins Alamark - and you are thrown about as those boulder strike you, although you take no damage
[09:30] <DM> No, he can't.
[09:30] <alamark> ok
[09:30] <alamark> and my spell?
[09:31] <DM> You can cast your spell next round. Can't move and cast in the same round. You are now in position to cast, though
[09:31] <DM> The explosions from the mortar have stopped
[09:31] <Kasin> can move and cast, provided you cast then move :
[09:31] <DM> OK ... processing end of round
[09:31] <alamark> I'll do that then
[09:32] <DM> You see your allies outside charging towards the gates
[09:32] <Kasin> excellent
[09:33] <DM> Actions for next round? Cast and attack, I assume
[09:33] <Kasin> yep
[09:33] <alamark> yep
[09:34] <DM> OK ... initiative?
[09:34] <Kasin> not bad
[09:34] <Kasin> I'll preroll
[09:34] <DM> Kasin, attack.
[09:35] <DM> A second giant is moving towards Kasin. Two giants are moving towards alamark from the other side
[09:36] <alamark> when I get to move, I move up as well as awa
[09:37] <DM> Let me know results Kasin
[09:37] <Kasin> damage, per blow, in order: 20, 4, 20, 44, 23, 2
[09:38] <Kasin> that 20 should be 24
[09:38] <Kasin> 2nd 20 that is
[09:38] <DM> OK
[09:39] <Kasin> 3 criticals :)
[09:39] <DM> The giant staggers after your first blow, even more after the second and drops after the third
[09:39] <DM> The other giant looks at you in surprise, and waits for you to come to him
[09:39] <Kasin> uh oh
[09:40] <DM> Alamark, how long does it take you to cast PW
[09:41] <alamark> 4 segments (5 -1 )
[09:41] <Kasin> thats average
[09:41] <DM> OK, you are still casting when you feel magic wash over you. Save at -3
[09:42] <Kasin> does Kasin get the rest of her blows
[09:42] <DM> Babe Ruth (Giant): Batter up! (stands in batting position, club raised) :
[09:42] <Kasin> yeah....
[09:42] <Kasin> she will attack anwyay
[09:42] <DM> She will since Shotan is fast, but the giant will get a hit too..
[09:42] <alamark> i make by 1 after the penalt
[09:42] <DM> Although the blow staggers you, the shock is absorbed by your armor
[09:43] <alamark> do i get to finoish my spell
[09:43] <alamark> did it feel like hold person
[09:43] <DM> You feel your limbs lock up momentarily, but shake it off and finish your spell
[09:44] <alamark> ooc: hold person - i could tell b y the -
[09:44] <DM> Kasin, you strike the giant three times. The first time opens up a huge gash in his stomache. The second runs him through and sends him staggering. After the third he sinks down, lifeless
[09:44] <DM> Umm... isn't it -2?
[09:45] <Kasin> the last blow went to Shotan actually :
[09:45] <alamark> -3 if mtargettied a one person for the mage versio
[09:45] <DM> Oops. That should have been -4 then
[09:45] <DM> (Specialist)
[09:45] * Kasin grins
[09:46] <DM> Alamark, feel like wast.. umm spending a CP
[09:46] <alamark> i still make - exactly, as i made it by 1 when it was -
[09:46] <DM> OK, that's good then!
[09:47] <DM> In that case your spell takes effect and you start flying up, helped on the way by a giant's club
[09:47] <DM> Lose another Stoneskin.
[09:47] <alamark> what do i lose?
[09:47] <DM> The club send you flying - away from the wall and the other giant
[09:47] <DM> You are now in the air above the courtyard again
[09:48] <DM> The giant has a comic look of puzzlement on his face. He's looking at his club
[09:48] <alamark> do i get my spell off
[09:48] <DM> Yes
[09:49] <DM> There are two giants on the wall, and there is presumably a hole in the door, although neither of you are in a position to see it
[09:49] <DM> Actions?
[09:49] <Kasin> ooc: alright, who swapped my club for the foam one? I hate it when I hit the little guys and they ignore i
[09:49] <DM> :)
[09:50] <Kasin> how mnay giants are there on the wall
[09:51] <alamark> are there any giants near enough to attack me
[09:51] <DM> Two. One is looking at his club and the other has stopped beside him, watching you and Alamark
[09:51] <DM> Alamark is in the air, out of melee range but well in missile range
[09:52] <alamark> did i get a half move after passwal
[09:52] <Kasin> "we'll get the wall ones, then you can blast them from there
[09:52] <alamark> in any case - what sort of cover can i take in 2 rounds
[09:53] <DM> You could fly over the wall and drop down on the outside. Assuming that the giants are busy with Kasin you should be safe
[09:55] <alamark> i'll do that then
[09:55] <DM> Kasin? Attack the two giants? If you hurry you might get there before the surprised one recovers
[09:56] <Kasin> she will attack, but not the surprised on
[09:56] <Kasin> yet
[09:56] <DM> OK.
[09:57] <DM> Inititative?
[09:57] <alamark> will i get cover this round
[09:57] <Kasin> oh well
[09:57] <DM> If you fly a decent arc around the giants you will be in cover from the courtyard by the end of this round, and on the ground next round
[09:57] <DM> You ride towards the two giants..
[09:58] <alamark> i don't want to be on the ground, i want to be against a wall of somethin
[09:58] <Kasin> i'll preroll
[09:58] <DM> The surprised giant looks at you and roars ferociously, momentarily surprising his friend. They'll both be ready for you, though
[09:58] <DM> You hear more shouting from the courtyard
[10:00] <DM> Kasin is hit twice as she approaches the giants
[10:00] <DM> 54 damage and two checks.
[10:01] <Kasin> crit wounded
[10:01] <Kasin> no problem with the checks, make by 20 or mor
[10:01] <DM> One of the giants suddenly starts sprouting arrows
[10:01] <Kasin> damage, in order: 14, 8, 45, 24, 2
[10:01] <DM> Alamark, you safely make it to cover
[10:01] <alamark> good
[10:02] <alamark> have a quick look around, then cast a spell next roun
[10:02] <DM> The first giant drops after the fourth hit
[10:02] <DM> The second is still standing after you last hit and five arrows
[10:03] * Kasin grits her teeth in pai
[10:03] <DM> However you are in melee range and will probably get to attack before he does next round
[10:03] <DM> Alamark, you are not on the ground yet. Do you want to cast and then ground, just cast, or go to ground and not cast
[10:04] <alamark> i do not want to go on the ground!
[10:04] <alamark> i want to be in midair against a wall or something!
[10:05] <DM> OK.
[10:05] <DM> Processing end of round..
[10:05] <DM> There are screams from the courtyard below you and the stench of burning meat
[10:06] <alamark> ow
[10:06] <DM> OK, init.
[10:06] <Kasin> action: shotan attacks, Kaisn activates the lunch knife for a hea
[10:07] <Kasin> oh great
[10:07] <alamark> do i have reasonable cover
[10:07] <DM> You can't see the giants and they can't see you
[10:08] <DM> OK Kasin, you get your fast attack on average. Do it
[10:08] <alamark> good - cast Justin's Skimmer - will take me 5 segment
[10:08] <alamark> off ot toilet - brb
[10:08] * Kasin feels an awful lot bette
[10:09] <Kasin> Shotan goes on end of slow I thin
[10:09] <DM> Ah, OK.
[10:09] <DM> Three more arrows thud into the giant before he can attack, and although he seems badly injured he still swings
[10:10] <DM> Take 26.
[10:10] <DM> And riding roll...
[10:10] <Kasin> are there crits for profs? :
[10:10] <DM> Not in this case.
[10:11] <Kasin> she wouldn't have missed, but something else might have happened
[10:11] <DM> Alamark (when you get back and read this) - you now have a skimmer
[10:12] <DM> The courtyard appears to be clearing rapidly, the creatures down there seem to be retreating inside
[10:12] <DM> They are being followed by a stream of fire from near the gate
[10:13] <DM> One of the giants lights up as the stream washes over him
[10:13] * Kasin winces
[10:13] <DM> He staggers into the edge of a wall, screaming, and begins rolling around on the ground
[10:14] <DM> The fire begins to go out, until the stream finds him again...
[10:14] <DM> He stops struggling.
[10:15] <DM> Tril advances into the courtyard, his device spewing out fire in an extremely long stream. The others spread out behind him
[10:15] <DM> Actions?
[10:15] <DM> (waiting for Alamark)
[10:15] <Kasin> are there any giants on the wall
[10:15] <DM> No.
[10:15] <Kasin> hang on, Shotan's attack
[10:16] <DM> Ah yes... I forgot the giant was still alive
[10:16] <Kasin> that was pathetic: 18 damag
[10:16] <DM> Shotan knows the giants...
[10:17] <alamark> i'm back
[10:17] <Kasin> not in the biblical sense obviousl
[10:17] <DM> ..who staggers sideways and falls .. into the courtyard and towards the group below
[10:17] <Kasin> and Kasin doesn't fall off durting this eithe
[10:17] <DM> d20
[10:17] <DM> d20
[10:17] <DM> d20
[10:17] <DM> d20
[10:17] <alamark> windows?
[10:18] <Kasin> you know I did Shotan's attacks right
[10:18] <DM> Damn, wrong window!
[10:18] <DM> Sherra yells a warning and the group scatters
[10:18] <alamark> I meant - are thewre windoiws in the wall
[10:19] <DM> Dreagor, Gorst and Tril are in the way of the giant... although Tril is only hit a glancing blow
[10:20] <Kasin> just as well...
[10:20] <DM> Damn! How much should a falling 4500lb giant do
[10:20] <Kasin> ummm?
[10:20] <Kasin> trample damage is d4 per point, but this is a tad wors
[10:20] <Kasin> d4 per size diff I mea
[10:21] <DM> Hmm...
[10:21] <DM> They are all small too, and the giant is huge
[10:21] <alamark> Are there any windows etc. into the castl
[10:21] <DM> I'll double it for a charge attack! :
[10:21] * Kasin laughs
[10:22] <DM> There are windows into the keep, fairly high up. Some balconies too
[10:23] <alamark> ok - i go up to a windo
[10:23] <DM> Kasin, do you join the others in the courtyard? It's full of burned and broken bodies
[10:23] <Kasin> uh, yes
[10:23] <DM> Lor and Vel come in and join the others
[10:23] <alamark> note the skimmer can do any where between MV 0 and 70, and is at maneuverability class A at MVs less than 2
[10:23] <DM> Esther is missing.
[10:23] <DM> OK.
[10:24] <alamark> and it's a stable spellcasdting platform and is only 3' radiu
[10:24] <Kasin> "is Estherielle around somewhere?
[10:24] <DM> The group is in the couryard. There are two corridors leading into the castle complex, although the giants all went down one
[10:25] <DM> V: I've been looking for her. She may be around another side of the castle
[10:25] <alamark> csn thjer skimmer fit through a window
[10:25] <DM> Easily. The problem is that most of the windows seem shuttered. Others are being shuttered by goblins even as you watch
[10:25] <Kasin> "the door there is open. it appears to be the front door
[10:26] <Kasin> how mnay giants did we kill
[10:26] <DM> Gorst: Damn giant! (brushing himself off
[10:26] <Kasin> "Dead giant"
[10:26] <alamark> could i dim door through with the skimmer
[10:26] <Kasin> occ: dead ant, dead ant..
[10:27] <DM> Here in the couryard you see the bodies of four giants, including the one that just fell on the party. Many goblins and several trolls though
[10:28] <Kasin> "we haven't actually eliminated that many. we are obviously eithre going to have to go in ther and get them, or lay siege to them
[10:28] <DM> Alamark - You think so.
[10:28] <Kasin> "how are you for ammo?
[10:28] <alamark> i don't like the idea of a siege
[10:29] <DM> Gorst: We go in. Not enough of us for a siege
[10:29] <DM> Alamark, you can't join in thie convo since you are up in the air looking for windows
[10:29] <alamark> true
[10:30] <DM> Tril: Godo enough.
[10:30] <DM> Ig: Do I have time to pick up my charges
[10:30] <DM> Vel: I think pressing them is more important. We can't let them get set
[10:31] <Kasin> "I don't think we should continue to press forward. It will give them time, but we don't know whats down there
[10:31] <DM> Alamark - are you going to Dim Door
[10:31] <alamark> not yet
[10:31] * alamark calls out to Kasin
[10:31] <DM> Lor: And we should look for Estherielle
[10:31] <alamark> Can you batter this down for me
[10:32] <Kasin> the shutters? no problem. can it wait for a moment
[10:32] <Kasin> is the keep giant sized? as are the shutters
[10:32] <DM> Suddenly, as most of you look upwards, a hail of arrows descends upon Alamark
[10:32] <DM> They bounce off in all directions, many falling downwards towards the party
[10:33] <DM> Sheera: Shit!
[10:33] * DM Various people dive for cover
[10:33] <Kasin> where di they come from
[10:33] <DM> Do you dive or look?
[10:33] <alamark> bastards
[10:34] <Kasin> she not going to dive off shotan, so loo
[10:34] <alamark> which acts first - stonskin or ptorn from NM
[10:34] <Kasin> she can't shelter behind shotan if they are from above either :
[10:34] <DM> P f NM
[10:35] <Kasin> Sophie is looking up something in the DM
[10:35] <Kasin> Shotan has PfNM on BTW
[10:35] <DM> Various party members get hit by falling arrows. An arrow bounces off Kasin's armor, off Shotans PfNM and hits the ground
[10:36] <Kasin> Kasin is looking for where the arrows came fro
[10:36] <alamark> ok i pull out my dec
[10:36] <DM> Kasin - You can't see where the arrows came from, although it was from somewhere up in the castle of keep
[10:37] <Kasin> ok< kasin and Shotan move in the direction, quickl
[10:37] <alamark> it's a deck of illusions btw - not many things. :

[10:45] <Kasin> sheesh, they hit DV 20
[10:46] <DM> There are a LOT of arrows
[10:46] <DM> And I remembered the reduction
[10:46] <alamark> -1 per die
[10:46] <Kasin> well, Kasin will be there in a momen
[10:47] <alamark> who is the teleport lock on
[10:47] <DM> Alamark - You drop the card
[10:47] <Kasin> you
[10:47] <alamark> yes
[10:47] <alamark> on rthe skimmer
[10:47] <DM> A female wizard appears beside you
[10:47] <Kasin> ooc: death to the evil wizard
[10:47] <Kasin> ooc: Kasana, what are you doing here? :
[10:47] <alamark> attack them! I point to where the arrows came fro
[10:47] <DM> Kasin is rising quickly towards Alamark.... just in time to see the next hail of arrows fly towards him
[10:47] <alamark> from here
[10:48] <alamark> i then cast a spell next roun
[10:48] <DM> The woman looks for cover, cringing as arrows seem to hit her
[10:48] <Kasin> ooc: oh Alamark, save me

[10:49] <alamark> well, at least she's not rea
[10:49] <alamark> how many fucking arrows can trhey hav
[10:49] <DM> Four arrows hit Alamark for a total of 15 damage
[10:49] <Kasin> how many arrows are there coming out of this balcony
[10:49] <DM> The goblin archers are now retreating inside
[10:50] <DM> About fifty or so per volley
[10:50] * Kasin goes in after them
[10:50] <alamark> i move now!!!! MV 70, after i grab onto the woma
[10:50] <alamark> bugger cASTIng another spell
[10:50] <DM> grin
[10:51] <alamark> where are the arrows coming from
[10:51] <DM> OK, Kasin, you head for the balcony. The goblins are inside and running
[10:51] <DM> Alamark, you are going after the goblins or away
[10:51] <Kasin> she will give chase. movement rate 7
[10:51] <DM> Both of you have the same move! :
[10:52] <DM> The goblins scatter once inside, but many will still be trapped in a large room when you guys get in there. They seem to be fighting to get through the doors..
[10:52] <alamark> i tell her to hold on tight and go after the goblin
[10:53] <DM> There are also two ogres, who advance on the two of you grimly
[10:53] <DM> Please give me actions in other windows
[10:53] <Kasin> death to the goblins
[10:54] <DM> BTW, Kasin, you wouldn't have seen the card bit. You would have seen a female (apparently a mage) appear next to Alamark
[10:55] <DM> Kasin?
[10:55] <Kasin> try the other window
[10:55] <DM> I did. Nothing.
[10:55] <DM> Ah, is it with GM or DM?
[10:55] *** DM is now known as GM
[10:55] <GM> Now try it.
[10:56] <GM> LAUGH!
[10:57] * Kasin grins
[10:57] <GM> I just rolled to check ... and at a distance, seen not to clearly, the girl looks a bit like KASANA
[10:57] * Kasin frowns
[10:58] <GM> OK, Kasin turns towards one of the Orges. Alamark casts a spell and hurls a small black sphere..
[10:58] <Kasin> what is the ogres DV?
[10:58] <GM> The woman's gestures produce a number of fiery spheres which begin to, one at a time, hurtle towrads the fleeing goblins
[10:59] <Kasin> hmmm, ogres are CE aren't they? heh heh he
[10:59] <GM> DV 15.
[11:00] <GM> Alamark's black sphere strikes the ogre as it charges towards him. It stiffens and collapses
[11:00] <alamark> Yes!
[11:00] <GM> Yep, CE
[11:01] <alamark> random note - I'm immune to 1st level illusion
[11:02] <GM> Kasin. Dam?
[11:02] <Kasin> damage, in order: 44, 30, 25, 32, 30, 6, 24, 2
[11:03] <Kasin> I love heroic fray :)
[11:04] <GM> You don't get heroic fray against the ogre
[11:04] <GM> And the goblins aren't trying to attack you, they are trying to flee
[11:04] <Kasin> she doesn't? why not?
[11:04] <GM> It is a 1-on-1 battle.
[11:04] <Kasin> oh, there is just one ogre
[11:04] <GM> In fact 2-on-1
[11:05] <GM> The other charged Alamark and got killed
[11:05] <alamark> i leave and follow the fleeing goblin
[11:05] <Kasin> in that case, it's: 44, 30, 6, 24, 20 (the rest being goblins I assume, which she doiesn't get HF for since she attacked the ogre first
[11:06] <Kasin> actually, she should get HF, since she gets HF against both goblins and ogre
[11:06] <Kasin> unless you say that fleeing creatures don't count for H
[11:06] <GM> Yep. Note that she is attacking goblins that are armed only with missile weapons who are trying to flee and probably have their backs turned
[11:07] <GM> The goblins don't count as opponents for HF since they aren't trying to fight
[11:07] <Kasin> wouldn't that make it easier [11:07] <Kasin> well, it's not very chivalri
[11:08] <GM> Exactly, it's against the idea of HF. Of course you can just ride them down with Shotan
[11:08] <alamark> i leave and follow the fleeing goblin
[11:08] <Kasin> but the goblins aren't ever going to stop to face her, they will just run away and shoot from concealmen
[11:08] <Kasin> discussion on other windo
[11:08] <GM> I know Alamark. Wait.
[11:12] <Kasin> ok, what can Shotan do in the way of trample attacks
[11:13] <GM> Shotan can move and trample any creatures in her path. The goblins are currently packed abuot six to a square, so that's alot of them
[11:14] <Kasin> owww
[11:14] <GM> As a rough guess you'll probably kill upwards of 20 goblins per round in this manner - or would if there were enough there
[11:15] <GM> They'll scatter quickly..
[11:15] <Kasin> ok
[11:15] <Kasin> given that Shotan has titan strenght, I guess Goblins wouldn't slow him down muc
[11:16] <GM> Not alot. Basically you guys will be able to clear one of the three exits of goblins in two rounds, including this one. That's if you stop to kill all the scattered ones
[11:16] <alamark> no
[11:17] <Kasin> not even Kasin will do tha
[11:17] <Kasin> they are no longer a threat to anyon
[11:17] <GM> Alamark, you throw another spell in the second round? There are still two other exit-groups left
[11:17] <alamark> consisting of?
[11:17] <GM> ..although one is being minute-meteored into oblivion
[11:18] <GM> Goblins.
[11:18] <Kasin> Kasin and shotan will go over and destroy another grou
[11:18] <GM> Wait, Glenn.
[11:18] <Kasin> ok
[11:18] <GM> Sophie?
[11:19] <alamark> yep
[11:19] <GM> Spell?
[11:19] <alamark> roughly how many
[11:20] <GM> Around 15 to 20
[11:20] <alamark> i don;t want to waste a spell, dammit
[11:20] <alamark> thinking....
[11:20] <GM> You have 5 secs...
[11:21] <GM> Type in now or no action..
[11:21] <alamark> no action
[11:21] <alamark> just look around the roo
[11:21] <GM> OK, Alamark watches as the female mage decimates the center group and Kasin chases down the last group
[11:21] <alamark> what's in the room?
[11:21] <GM> The last group will have gotten into the corridor, so it will take Kasin sightly longer to slaughter them
[11:22] <Kasin> she will let the last of them g
[11:22] <GM> Lots of dead and dieing goblins, many still writhin or moaning
[11:22] <GM> Some comfortable chairs have been pushed against one side. They are giant-sized
[11:23] <GM> A dull boom is heard from somewher below
[11:23] <Kasin> Kasin and Shotan will go outside, to see belo
[11:24] <GM> Alamark?
[11:24] <alamark> yes
[11:24] <alamark> the remaning goblins flee into another room
[11:24] <GM> Female Mage: Shall I kill the last few who fled
[11:24] <alamark> What is in that room
[11:24] <GM> They are fleeing down corridors
[11:24] <alamark> if you have the spells to spare - we many need to save the
[11:24] <Kasin> is the voice similiar to Kasana's
[11:24] <alamark> Thank you, btw
[11:24] <GM> <female mage begins casting a spell>
[11:25] <alamark> Never mind then
[11:26] <GM> A little. Kasin would notice the difference if she was paying attention. Your call
[11:26] <Kasin> hmm, no, SHe is more concerned about outsid
[11:26] <GM> <the other mage finished her spell and a number of goblins appear - they get sent down seperate corridors>
[11:27] <GM> Other window, Glenn.
[11:27] <Kasin> yes, I just noticed :)
[11:27] <GM> Kasin leaves the room and rides off the balcony, downwards
[11:28] <GM> You hear Kasin yell "Death to the Giants" from below
[11:28] <Kasin> "Death to the giants!"
[11:28] <alamark> peer out the window
[11:28] <GM> :)
[11:29] <GM> Sophie - other window.
[11:42] <alamark> any other exits?
[12:02] <alamark> OK
[12:16] <alamark> when shall we do this again
[12:16] <Kasin> ASAP? :)
[12:19] <alamark> hannes?
[12:20] <Kasin> ok
[12:20] <Kasin> when are you avail hannes
[12:20] <GM> We can play again next week. I'll e-mail

[12:20] <Kasin> ok, cya then
[12:20] <Kasin> have fun!
