Derick the Swordmaster of Doom

Gregor the Tanky Stab-Sentinel

[CrimsonEon]

* Haspen fanfares.

Congratz Xan, I doubted anyone would remember that tidbit

And now I'm stuck rereading the IC thread. Man there were so many close calls. So many.

[Powder Miner]

What happened to the smug prologue-survivor archers anyway?
Probably executed.

You too? I'm currently at Chapter 2, at very moment Adarlan and trollcavaliers showed up. *popcorn*

Not at a computer, so I can't do stat comparisons, so I'm kind of wondering why you guys don't get out into the hallway so you can engage more foes at once. Two rows of defensive units, one to each side, would let you waste more bad guys, and leave some space for the casters/healers to get in to provide support and heals.

We don't know that this mission isn't time sensitive after all.

Personally, I'd love it if that happened if I were in Haspen's spot. Hell the lead guy on one angle twice, poison him, bum rush. Boom--broken wall and instant bloodbath because of divided focus.

My opinion is to take it slow until those druids get downed, they should be a priority.

[Sirus]

Bingo. Only a fool or someone with vast superiority in numbers willingly fights on two fronts. We've got a perfect defensive chokepoint here and we should take advantage of it.

The druids will be annoying, but since they can't directly down us I'm not overly worried about them.

And god knows we should actually take advantage of it this time.

* CE shudders, remembering (and still reading through) the various disasters that resulted off a misplaced choke

[Sirus]

Speaking of, we need to ensure that Marpa is surrounded on all three sides before ending the first turn. If she goes down, the last thing we want is for bad guys to break through and cause a bloodbath behind the lines.

[Powder Miner]

Valor never did get to kill Wodan.

[Blade Master Model 42]

Valor never did get to kill Wodan.

There were lots of people I didn't get to kill.

At least I got that one Berebian General the first time we fought in the castle.

Ah, memories.

EDIT: Actually, I just looked at the map, and staying in the room leaves you far more vulnerable to the Hell-Druids than going out into the hallway, for this turn at least. Of the hallway tiles, only 18,6 is capable of being struck by a Hell shot this turn. And those druids on the right aren't a factor for now. I can provide a visual aid if you like.

[freeformschooler]

Dag can help take care of the druids once they get closer, assuming they don't have insane res.

[Sirus]

Dag's on the wrong end of the magic triangle, though. I wouldn't want him to waste precious Blizzard shots on enemies who both have an increased chance to dodge and gain bonus RES against him, especially when there are better targets close by.

And seriously, the Hell Druids are not something we should be worried about right now. Losing half your HP will be annoying as hell, but there's nothing we can do about them right now except have them use up their shots and hope we can dodge. Not even pure water will protect us from that sort of thing, and the indoor nature of the map means we can't even send a flyer over to smack them in the face until they stop living.. Best thing we can do right now is huddle up and ride out the storm.

Not even Riven's gargoyle?

HASPEN CAN WE GET CONFIRMATIONS

WE'RE INDOORS. LAST I CHECKED YOU CANNOT FLY THROUGH WALLS

The only benefit of bringing Tenebra was increased movement for Ami and greater rescuing ability for Ami.

And with Alex and Anja staying behind, there was no reason not to.

I know that. I was responding to ffs' suggestion about gargoyles
