Yas pls, for extra epicness and plot and FEF1 lore connections!

Nah, we had enough and this game should end with Julius' coronation.

[freeformschooler]

BMM can recruit me and THEN move if he wants!

[Xanmyral]

On another note, thug B and C aren't present on the map, dead I assume.

@Sirus and Zako: So, I got a few ideas as to what to do.

Spoiler: We're not out of the woods yet (click to show/hide)

Fezz can hit any of the enemies without repercussion, albeit this would expose him next round. However, this is the only way he can do things so there isn't really a way around that. Without the archer's help, none of them can kill him in a single blow also, so downing him would eat up two of the enemies turns. He can kill the axeman, grievously harm the cavalier, or sucker punch the archer. He can also heal Roderic.

Grifen can hit any of the enemies, although hitting the archer might not be a great idea due to being shot back at. Grifen can also heal Roderic however if Fezz were to kill the axeman. Together they can kill the cavalier I think, if wished. Together we'd only do eleven damage on the archer however, so that isn't honestly worth it at this point as downing enemies is more useful right now I believe.

I personally think Fezz (hopefully, because spiteful RNG) kills the axeman, with Grifen healing Roderic would be the best course of action. Roderic would be back in the fight, which is powerful because he can double most of them and is on good terrain so he could probably survive a counter strike. Both Grifen and Fezz would be open for counter assault however, which is risky because if the enemies play their cards right and the dice favor them they could down both Grifen and Roderic leaving Fezz to fend for himself, which is not good.

I'm honestly curious as to how one would go about recruiting Candy. What would cause one to broach that subject even, instead of just assumptions of banditry and another target? I know that the answer to this will probably be unexpected and hilarious, most likely.

[Haspen]

Sheila can write she always wanted to meet and be friends with a fairy. Candy will give in instantly I bet

[Haspen]

FFS, never stop.

[SeriousConcentrate]

I don't see this ending well for Leo and Candy.

And that's my allotted ship-tease joke for the day.

It should be noted that thanks to Grifen's PS, vulneraries restore a full 10 HP to downed allies, and 15 to ones on their feet. If she can get Roderick up, he should be able to survive at least one hit.

Otherwise, we can shoot for evadehax once more. If Grifen moves to attack someone, could Fezz make it into the woods and kill the axeman?

[Blade Master Model 42]

Well, normally I'd be cheesed about having my turn skipped while I'm at work, but I figure a double turn makes up for it. :3

Can't do much with it for about an hour though.

[Sirus]

Also, I can't believe I got STR and DEF. In the same level, even! Still no magic though, which sucks.

[freeformschooler]

Having good SPD/MAG growths is gonna be AWESOME several months from now.

Now that I think about it, didn't Haspen start FEF only a little after I started Warrens? Dang. Two GMs, side by side, rising into Internet fame from relative obscurity. We're going to be like Adam West or Leonard Nimoy, unable to live our claims to fame down and forever trapped creating multi-layer self-parodies.

[SeriousConcentrate]

Although, Haspen clearly loves it since he's already planning FEF 3.

[Xanmyral]

I think I've lost count of how many times I've said this, but shine on FFS.

It should be noted that thanks to Grifen's PS, vulneraries restore a full 10 HP to downed allies, and 15 to ones on their feet. If she can get Roderick up, he should be able to survive at least one hit.

Otherwise, we can shoot for evadehax once more. If Grifen moves to attack someone, could Fezz make it into the woods and kill the axeman?

Nah, Fezz can't make it into the woods. So really his options are do nothing and stay on his hill, or get off of the hill and attack, or heal.

Sadly, I'm not sure it works like that. I hope it works like that, as that would be quite nice, but I'm pretty sure it just adds it all together then divides it in the end for downed people.

Spoiler: Tactics (click to show/hide)

You can't really kill anyone so your best bets are either healing Roderic or hitting the cavalier I think, since Fezz will probably be killing the axeman. I kinda wish Fezz could kill the cavalier in one hit, then you can raise Roderic and he'll probably be safe from most attacks heading his way.

So, at first I wrote a large summery of the next two turns and how horrible it will be most likely leading to us being downed. Then I realized something: Griffen has seven health, four defense, and the archer does ten damage.

Originally I wrote off the healing strategy as ineffective because it would most likely wind up with both of you dead, with the archer having a seventy to sixty percent chance to kill you and the cavalier a sixty some percent chance to kill Roderic. However, the archer can't kill you in a single hit now because of that DEF gain. So, if they want to get the both of you down, the cavalier would have to go for you, and the archer for Roderic. While you would be facing an eighty to seventy percent chance of getting downed, Roderic would only be facing a twenty nine percent chance of getting downed.

It's still not perfect, but it is a lot better than I thought it was.

The offensive strategy I wrote off too however but the above archer knowledge makes it better. While you could wound the cavalier, and Fezz kill the axeman. You'd have a fifty fifty percent chance of getting downed by the cavalier, and Fezz most likely injured by the archer. The turn after that you, if still up, and Fezz would have to heal Roderic because else he would die next turn. If you're able to, Fezz could kill the cavalier and you heal Roderic leaving only the archer to deal with. If you aren't able to, Fezz would have to heal Roderic and would be summarily downed next turn along with Roderic most likely following.

So... Pick your poison I guess. One is a touch safer, but the results take longer and aren't as visible. The other has more chance to gain, but more chance to lose.

I do see a nice possibility, that being Shelia with her two turns can cover a lot of distance to us. If Candy gives her a third, she can get there and even assault the archer.

All the tactics above however assumes Haspen is aware that Cavalier B does in fact have a rather terrible case of the deads due to two stabs of the sword and two hits of fire. If a zombie attacks us, all bets are off and I got no idea how things could turn out really. Zombies always are that kind of chaos factor one can never plan for.

[SeriousConcentrate]

@FFS: You should probably move a little way away from the group you're leaving first, before dancing for Sheila. Just in case. >.>

[freeformschooler]

Yeah, probably. Sheila can handle the new PCs since she can reach the archer now.

[Blade Master Model 42]

I don't really expect Hasp to let me have three turns in one phase. It'd be nifty as fuck, but I doubt it's going to happen.
