Rumble Strike

Sorry Scuba, I must've missed your post in the Grogmas thread. I see it is fine Strivvian metal! Sadly I won't be able to get that piece for pictures of Tarn.

Thanks Father Grogmas for Tarn's awesome-looking Darksteel armour. What piece is it made from, I don't quite recognise it. A great surprise anyway as it must've been something Father Grogmas came up with himself.

QM Note: Merry Grogmas, it seems! Remember, as per the rules, if you have been given a shiny new artifact to use, if you equip it now, as you are currently in battle, it will cost you a turn to do so. Also Scuba, you didn't specify a row for Guts's attacks yet again. Now I know you are doing it to annoy me Everyone else has no problems adding a row, and nor do I when playing as Tarn, where I always include target, row and weapon as clarification for the QM, and so no confusion can exist afterwards. So from the next round on, if not specified, I will always make Guts fight from the back row. Results of Round Two of the Prison Battle Nagure equips Yeti armour artifact Nerwen heals Sorrow - Damage (No Healing) >Sorrow vs. Pinalt - Damage (Sorrow: 8 health+ 1 SP= 9-(20/2(back row)=)10 dmg=0 health) >Maurice vs. Quarnoth - Special Damage (Slowcoach - Maurice can only act once every other round until battle is over, unless remedied) Guts vs. Pinalt (Lifestealer) - Damage/Damage (Guts: 35 health-20 dmg=15 health) Guts vs. Rex (Lifestealer) - Steal/Hit (Rex: 224 health+8 SP=232-(49*2(Encouraged)=98*2(Ice vs Beasts)=)196 dmg=36 health) Guts vs. Selfast (Lifestealer) - Shield/Special Damage (Ravage: Rex: 36 health+8 SP=44-(49*2(Encouraged)=98*2(Ice vs Beasts)=)196 dmg=0 health, 20 gold; Pinalt: 64 health+10 SP=74-(49*2(Encouraged)=98*2(Darkness)=)196 dmg=0 health, 20 gold; Quarnoth: 79-(49*2(Encouraged)=98*2(Darkness)=)196 dmg=0 health, 30 gold; Selfast: 4 health-(49*2(Encouraged)=98*2(Darkness)=)196 dmg=0 health, 20 gold. 90 gold in total) The battle doesn't start well for the heroes, with Nerwen unable to heal Sorrow, and the Assassin being KOed by Pinalt the very next second. Maurice once again suffers a special attack from his opponent. But then Guts waltzes through the ranks, and despite taking a hit from Pinalt, he dispatches the enemies with yet another flurry of well-placed hits, including 2 on the reptilian keymaster. The battle is victorious! Everyone gains a level or a proportion thereof apart from Sorrow as he was KOed at the conclusion of the battle. Looks like his bad luck doesn't just stretch to Ether Cores.

To Father Grogmas, please keep my friends safe in whatever adventures they may be off having. A Nostrum each for Atramor, Ellaria, Nyx, and Althior and to make sure the odds are for ever in their favour, at least for a short while. Also special thoughts go to my dear Ella in Dastan, may she be allowed a wistful smile, and to Victor, a man stout of heart and blessed with more courage than anyone I have met. Yours respectfully, Tarn Valco.

After Selfast hits Maurice and Sorrow, Rais is triple-teamed to death, with Guts getting a hit on all the opposing forces in the prison. He also dispatches Ostan, who could have been a trick opponent in the back row. Nagure misses and Mizuki gets slowed by Quarnoth and cannot act next turn. Even at the brink opf death, Selfast still gets a free hit in on Maurice. 2 of the 6 enemies have fallen, and several are near to dropping. A very good round for the party. The battle continues!

Tarn smiled his thanks as the Phoenix Essence restored him. "Gratitude, Namyrra, although it is not as though I am helping the Quest in any way. You and Cinna and the others are more than capable of taking on anyone in this pagoda, I feel. At least I have been restored and can aid you, unlike our poor Aoi friend." Tarn heads to the door also.

I have to say that Eris is one of the best-looking minifigs I've seen, the detailing on her torso and legs is superb.

Yep, but it's a very handy backup if the dice are against you.

So what about heroes with an unlimited supply of Nostrums and the Dancing Shoes?

Most overpowered, you mean

As Guts is Hastened and Lucky it would take a real streak of bad luck for 4 misses. But you never know!

You can get your inflicted damage if they can as well And which row will Guts be launching those attacks from?

Guts moves towards the reptile with his cursed blade, but the creature is surprisingly nimble and he cannot not land a blow. Several guards burst into the room and see that it is occupied with more than just prisoners. With a cry, the lead guard unshackles the reptilian guard and points it at the party with one word. "Kill!" The heroes must engage the beast and the somewhat familiar guards they escaped from last time. Prepare for battle!

The "guard dog" looked keenly at Nagure, as if sizing up the giant Yeti. It ignored the claw that was on the floor; there was no meat to be had from it.

Tarn is not a political guy, and Emperor Victor is also one of Tarn's friends, and a man Tarn both respects and admires, so please try to keep him alive!

Haldor trying to heal the Emperor of Dastan? Look out Ella, your succession is almost here!

QM Question: what does the Death Progg Claw actually do?

The party finally arrive at the prison. It feels like they had been travelling days but they really hadn't. It was just that they had to be so careful not to run into any guardsmen as they were all on the mst wanted list. The prison area was small and compact, and the prison itself had 3 inhabitants. The guard dog could prove to be a bit of a problem though! The three prisoners noticed the heroes, and recognition passed between them and most of the party, with only Maurice never having met Captain Hlin Horrkkba of the Ve'er Town Watch before. "Help us!" whispered Hlin. The guard dog stared at the new entrants, but made no attempt to move. They noticed it had a key firmly gripped in its jaws. The heroes hear movement and voices coming towards the cells, they won't have long before they have company.

Well Rystael is important to Tarn and he has popped up a few times before in various Heroica threads so I thought he'd be appropriate to use without actually featuring my player character, who, as CMP said, is off fightin' ninjas or somethin'.

Thanks for letting me be a part of Quest#53 even if it was just by way of an interlude. Can anyone spot the blatent inspiration for Alara? And Skyrimguy, your MOC looks great. Heroica got me into building again, since I came out of my Dark Ages I had only built actual sets, but I was inspired to create my own stuff by the RPG.

Tarn groaned and shook his head to clear it, although it still felt like Nyx had just wallopped him with the Healing Staff again. Unable to change targets due to his Bezerker nature, Tarn once again raised Helbaerend and aimed a blow at Long-armed Ape from the front row.

Tarn grinned, knowing that Helbaerend was doubly effective against all opponents in this room. He decided to take on Long-armed Ape from the front row, reminded suddenly of the keen intellect and politeness of Mr Thothwick. He hoped his friends in Heroica were doing alright this Grogmas.

Before I forget, loved the reference to Slim Yscum at the end of the Triad Park battle, Zeph. And sorry to the Tower of Doomers for the lack of updates, although, it looks like it's just Scuba around at the moment. I will get you to the prison soon. Had a few issues this end (power cuts etc).

As Tarn has found out! Although he is lanky more than muscular.

Tarn heard the sounds of battle and headed up the stairs. "Let us aid our companions, Tesni, although I fear they may have slaughtered the opposition before we get there if our time here has taught us anything!"
