Huh.  Better change those figures...

[wierd]

That was a maximum figure.  50 fatalities is a pretty realistic figure for a max theshold.

Minimum is at least 6. That's how may weird zombified to set armok up the bomb.

[WillowLuman]

I'd say around half the maximum; 25.

[Gizogin]

[Well, Gizogin saw four killed, and a couple from the hospital group died, not including the Mk. VII.  That puts the minimum number of casualties at around ten, if there's overlap between the ones wierd reanimated and the ones Gizogin saw.  I'd go for 20-30.]

[Eric Blank]

23, obviously.

-We must make this a game. Put a dwarf and a goblin in the arena, goblin with a bluemetal warhammer + legendary hammergoblin and the dwarf unarmed and unskilled. If the goblin wins, 50 survivors. If the dwarf wins, 25.-

[Zanzetkuken The Great]

Change those figures to
Goblin-132 survivors
Dwarf-93 survivors

[wierd]

My worst case listed fatalities.

Survivor count worst case was 100.

So far, best case is around 125 or so.

Fixed that for you. And that fight would go one for a long time. The dwarf would win.

Actually, I'm going to do this right now.

[Set FPS maximum to 3000: watch time fly!]

[WillowLuman]

[On second though, this fight was a little one-sided. How about 2 unskilled, unarmed dwarves vs each other? Then anything could happen, especially if it were best 2 out of 3. Dwarf 1 wins, 25 casualties; Dwarf 2 wins, 50 die.]

[WillowLuman]

In a best 3 out of 5 match, the dwarf on team 2 won 3 times. So, if we're going with this, it's 50 casualties. Personally, though, I think it should be just 25 dead.

Oliolli walked the streets. He still couldn't access most areas, for whatever reason; perhaps since he actually couldn't. Strange hallucinations gave no excuse to walk through stone. Trying to figure out what was going on, he was deafened, hopefully momentarily, by an immense crash echoing through the area, and was knocked over by a shockwave. As he opened his eyes again, the scene had vanished. Still, something wasn't right. Some of the casts weren't where he had left them, nor where they should be after the shockwave.
25 is too round. Something like 23, it's a prime number, thus easy to remember, yet doesn't look like a round number.

[Aww. I was hoping to make you go on a surreal journey. Maybe I still can.]

Oliolli blinked his eyes. The scene was back. He shook his head and blinked again. It was here again, feeling more real, more solid, though he still felt ethereal himself, unable to be seen or affect anyone. Now what had been heard in a long-forgotten foreign language seemed to be understandable. He was in the temple, several priests in lavender attire mumbling solemnly in front of the carved wall, now in it's original, unworn, terrible glory. "The prophecy indicates that It will happen soon. The death of the Mountain, and the death of our city."
"It is sad, then. I see no reason to tell everyone. There would be panic, and it would be unacceptable."
"Should we sit idle and leave everyone to die?"
"There is no guarantee that it is truly prophecy. The visions that this wall was carved for may have other meaning besides the literal events of the future."

[Oliolli]

Well, if you have ideas for what could/should happen there, go ahead. I'm not stopping you.
