Flare Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 "Sorrow, I give you permission to proceed with hiring anyone else that you deem necessary. Or do you think thats enough?" Quote
Endgame Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 "I believe we could hire guards. Is Jonothan helping us? And if so, what does he do?" Quote
Capt.JohnPaul Posted July 17, 2012 Author Posted July 17, 2012 "All five of you head down to the residential corridor, 5 down, 2 left." You mean 4? The farmers go down to the houses, confused. They can't really harvest any materials over here. "I believe we could hire guards. Is Jonothan helping us? And if so, what does he do?" QM Note: No. He's just an NPC. Quote
Endgame Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 OOC: 5: I have Patricia, unless she is somehwere else. also, i'm pretty sure that we want to amass our forces before we build any siege weapons, but that would be Flare's jurisdiction. "Well, what do you say we find some guards to hire?" Quote

"Well, what do you say we find some guards to hire?" Oh, that's right. New map: At the residential area you talk to the guards: "The Fantome Croise is terrifying, he is everyone over here who is willing to fight:" Attractive woman- distracts guards, gives encouraged effect for 1 round of battle. 20 gold Charis guard- Causes 3 damage to an enemy each turn it is in combat, lasts 3 rounds before he dies. 5 gold Quote
Endgame Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 "Guards, if we made you a riot shield of sorts out of wood, would you be able to last longer in battle?" I turn to my party members. "Does hiring 6 or 7 sound good? we may need to hire more or less, depending on whether or not the riot shield would increase their durability." Quote

You'll increase our durability for an extra round!" Quote
Endgame Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 "And what if we lined said riot shield's front with sharp stakes? Would you be able to bash the enemies for extra damage?" Quote
Flare Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 "And what if we lined said riot shield's front with sharp stakes? Would you be able to bash the enemies for extra damage?" "Hmm, that sounds violently good . I think that we should hire 7 or 8... they're pretty cheap ..." Quote

The women's services are a bit expensive though, so it's up to you guys whether or not you want to bring em' along. You watch the ranks of your rebel army swell! 8 Charis guards join the party!

Endgame Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 I turn to one of our hires. "Would you kindly send message to our farmers in the residentail district? I want them to head to the forest, 7 up, 1 left. I then want all of you to set up a perimeter around them while they gather materials - to make sure the fantome doesn't throw a wrench in our plans."

"Fellow Resistance Fighter, it's 1 PM now, and we obliterated that forest, we'll have quite a bit of wood now. You mentioned something about riot shields? Please command us on the specifications and how to build one." "Sir! The recent activity is getting the Fantome Croise suspicious, he sent out a patrol of 3 Dark Croise's, luckily they are going the wrong direction... For now." Quote

I have some specifics in midn, but there is one pivotal thing in the design: Do any of the trees here have sticky sap in them?" I turn to the party. "Shall we take on the Croises?" "The trees have sap, I'm not sure how sticky it is. Maybe if you told me what you have in mind, it could help." Quote
Endgame Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 I take a twig from their pile of lumber, drawing a schematic on the soft dirt at our feet. "Alow me to elaborate on this awful little doodle of mine. Step one: get four medium thickness logs (A) and 2 long sticks (B). make holes in the tops and bottoms of all A logs. Step 2: Puncture a tree (you can borrow my longsword for this) to get the weapon coated in sap. Spread it across the B pieces. Step 3: Line up all the A pieces. Feed the now-sappy B pieces through the holes you made in step one. Step 4: Leave em' in the sun. The sun will make the sap harden, binding it. Step 5: Make an eye-level eye-slit. Repeat steps 1-5 for every guard." With that, I hand the peasant my longsword. "Think you could do it? You can draw sap from the Forest that is 4 down from here - just the sap, though. I don't want you obliterating all the trees!" Quote
Capt.JohnPaul Posted July 17, 2012 Author Posted July 17, 2012 Very nice! Sorrow as gained a level of experience! "Sir, we can just use the tree sap from the ones we just cut." You make the shields, the Guards can now last another round in battle! "Benji, Lycan, Sorrow, the Croise patrol is coming closer. Luckily, the patrol has no archers, a long ranged weapon may attack those up to 3 squares away. Firing into a building/window reduces your chances of hitting." QM Note: Since I can feel the fight getting closer, I'll just go into the rules. Firing long ranged weapons into buildings or windows: 1- Critical Hit 2- Hit 3- Miss 4- Miss 5- Damage 5- Damage Movement and Combat: Each unit can move 2 squares, and attack. Each time a unit is next to an enemy, that counts as a round in combat. So if your guard is adjacent to an enemy, the enemy loses 3 health, but your guard's health decreases as well. Let me know if you have any questions. Also, I control the enemy, using the same rules. Quote
Endgame Posted July 17, 2012 Posted July 17, 2012 "Your drawing skills are worth as much as bird dung, but the idea behind it was decent. I'll give you that much. I've never seen such a relistic depiction of a sun! "Thank you, my cynical alter-ego. " "Wonderful. We may be able to optimize these later with the stakes I had planned. Benji, if I may state a suggestion, I suggest you and lycan head left 1. You can snipe the Croise in the back with your bow without a building hampering you there, and I should be able to handle Mr. Mcbuckethead head over here. Lycan, please target the remaining Croise. Oh, and please nab the helemts when you are done with these cretins. I have plans for em' that I need to finalize." Quote
TheBoyWonder Posted July 18, 2012 Posted July 18, 2012 " I too have an idea. How about using some more sap to stick to some helmets? We would fire catapult with the helmet in and it would hit the Fantome croise troops and make them slow? After this battle I volunteer to train some guards." Quote
Flare Posted July 19, 2012 Posted July 19, 2012 OK I move one left and attack the dark croise the furthest down. Quote
TheBoyWonder Posted July 19, 2012 Posted July 19, 2012 I head left and attacked the remaining cruise. Quote
Capt.JohnPaul Posted July 19, 2012 Author Posted July 19, 2012 For future reference, ranged weapons don't have to fire in a straight line. The battle will be up soon. Quote
Capt.JohnPaul Posted July 19, 2012 Author Posted July 19, 2012 QM Note: Sorry everyone. The battle might not be up today, but tomorrow morning. I need to add in some stuff on Photoshop so you guys can keep track of the enemies later, as it will get more complicated, also, it will help controlling your units. It's probably going to take all night, and Photoshop with 30 layers is kind of difficult. Thanks. Quote
Capt.JohnPaul Posted July 20, 2012 Author Posted July 20, 2012 (edited) Ok. Tell me if you have any questions. I just worked the hardest night I ever had in Heroica. Also, just say which letter you want to attack this time. Benji vs. Croise Marauder B- Hit Lycan vs. Croise Marauder C- Damage Maruader B vs. Benji- Critical Hit (Benji’s favor) Croise Marauder D vs. Benji- Special Damage (Croise’s favor) Croise Marauder A vs. Sorrow- Miss You realize these croise's aren't just normal ones, they're super strong ones. Benji shoots 1 in the chest for 28 damage. Lycan, not realizing it was a strong one, gets KO'd. The marauder B continues at Benji, but Benji shoots again, in the head. Killing the Croise. But another Croise catches Benji surprised, making him lose 20 damage. (but reduced to 10 from Benji's assumed Back row.) Croise A, which is a disguised one in a hood, swings at Sorrow, but misses. Charis guards 1 (a) 2 (b) and 8 (h) both lose 1 round of health, but damage the respective enemies. QM Note: Sorry, Croise B on the map should be dead, act like he's not their. I have to run upstairs to PS, edit the map, run back to this computer to run the battle, but I forget which enemy is which, run back up, and it goes on and on. Also please ask questions if this is confusing! Minuteman- “Over here, garçons!” Level 8 Humanoid Health: 31/42 Special: Punch- The minuteman uses his fist, making the target stunned. Drops: 32 gold Guard A- “Enemi, Couvre-moi. “ Level 9 Humanoid Health: 83/83 Special: Wrestle- The Guard grapples with the target, stunning him, and transferring all the damage he receives to the stunned hero for the next 3 turns. Drops: 6 gold Thief- “Try and get me.” *Encouraged* Level 5 Humanoid Health: 27/27 Special: Get away- The thief flees the fight, ending the battle in the enemies’ favor.

Drops: 12 gold Scout B- “No more mistakes maître. ‘’ Level 4 Humanoid Health: 36/36 Special: Encourage- Scout’s level triples. Drops: 26 gold Marauder C- “Meet yor doom!” Level 14 Humanoid Health: 37/40 Special: Super Strike- The marauder causes 20 damage.
