I HAVEN'T ABANDONED YOU GUYS!


Give some of My Nerds Magical Powers, Summon several Minotaurs, Create more Golems, And Attack the Inquisitors!

Carl Yelvin returns to the brawl!
Presence - [3] You turn some of your cultists into wizards (25 chosen created)
[5] You summon a couple of minotaurs. They don't have weapons or armor, but they still look cool and could probably fight better than a human (+50 25 minotaurs) ((If they're gonna be twice as powerful as cultists you only get half as many))
[no roll] You're only one horror, you can't do that much at once and your chosen haven't quite gotten the hang of golemancy yet.
[4] Your cultists and minions charge into battle against the meager inquisitors. They healed recently from their old wounds, but they still got crushed (-35 inquisitors, -5 minotaurs, -10 scrap golems, -15 cultists).

Inquisitors: be dead
[irrelevant] They succeed at being dead. They technically don't get a turn because they were never activated, but they are still dead.

Kill Paul!
Cultists: Attack Paul too!
[6] You sock Paul in the face with your fists. You get wounded by his spines and he doesn't look too bothered (both lightly wounded).
cultists:
[6] They charge at Paul and start tearing at the rind of his hide with their fingernails. They manage to tear off a few bits, but the damage they inflict was likely not worth the number who got impaled on his spines (Paul moderately wounded, -45 cultists)
Paul: show these aggressive people the meaning of friendship.
[4] Paul gives them a big smile and all your living cultists decide to join him rather than staying with you (45 cultists converted). ((dat 3 appeal, man))

Inquisitors: get weapons
[6] They acquire several tanks of liquid nitrogen. Freezing stuff, it's a bit more than they probably should have taken... (-10 cultists, gained liquid nitrogen)

I'll kill those horses. I'll kill all of those goddamn horses.


Me: Resurrect dead cultists! LIVE ONCE MORE!
Not dead cultists: Spread awareness about the fact that eternal night will come If we don't kill the evil nightmare horse!
Jeff: If you are not stuck and here with us, tell the Mad Matron's cultists and Paul not to bother us!
If not, atleast my cultists aren't getting recruited...

It's fine, I need to use my turn recruiting cultists, because I don't have any.

[1] You accidentally blow up the corpses and those nearby get covered in plague-spreading goo (15 cultists plagued).
cultists:
[6] They spread word of the night and draw attention to the horror of Nightmare... of course they accidentally let slip a little about you too, so that's not great... (Nightmare: +50 inquisitors, You: +25 inquisitors)
Jeff: do something
[2] Nope, Jeff's not doing anything himself
Jeff's cultists: bring Jeff to Nightmare so you can recieve orders
[2] They can't haul him over to the new base, they'll have to wait until he coughs up a pound of tar or two...

Ah! The moment has come at last! I will teach these mortals to love the night!
Announce my arrival with a partial solar eclipse and a showering of a great many plushies to show that not everything about me is fear and trembling.

Cultists:
65 - Take Lucius somewhere out of the way, preferably as a peace offering to the Mad Matron. He is a kid after all...
25 assassins and 15 normals - Attack those who insult my great horsiness! (Attack the Plague Doctor)

((I think I'm the Strongest Horror so far...))
((If you're just talking support wise, then you're hands down the strongest with over twice as much manpower as the next most supported horror, but as for actual horror power you're not really that great, the other guys just haven't been pushing themselves very hard. Also, you can't summon an elder dragon, maybe a baby dragon, but nothing that strong.))

[1] You can't seem to move the moon into the right place and accidentally flood your cave with the tides... whoops... The plushies don't solve much, but plenty of people try to hug you when you arrive... (cave base flooded out).
cultists:
[3] They carry the small boy to the nearest mother figure you can think of, the Mad Matron. But they get lost and defer to Lucius to lead them back (Lucius takes 25 cultists)
[3] the assassins kill off a few of Plague doctor's cultists with their poison darts, but your normal guys just get slaughtered trying to attack Plague doctor's gelatinous body (-15 cultists, killed 15 PD cultists).

Recruit more people.
Cultists: Tell Paul to go after the Plague Doctor.
[5] You do a superb job bringing people to your side. And by "bring" I of course mean "force with psychological manipulation", and by "to your side" I mean "under your command" (+100 cultists).

Paul's cultists:
[4] They successfully tell Paul to do a thing. (Paul will do a thing... I guess...)
Paul: do the thing
[6] Paul rolls off with all his pineappley might to go after this "Plague Doctor" and/or his cultists. This proves to be unwise as he gets himself covered in plague ilk which will infect those he touches. He also gets a little battered up on the way, negating his regen. (Paul is now a plague carrier, no heal this turn).

Inquisitors: recruit
[4] They manage to get people to join them despite their silly appearance (+25 cultists).

((Oh, OK then, Would 4-5 Mountain Giants be out of the question?))

Me: Make some Magical Artifacts and Potions and Give them to the Wizards! Afterwards Summon a few Mountain Giants and catch up on Pop Culture!
Mountain Giants: Advertise The Fantasy Store!
25 Wizards: Convert more Cultists!
45 Minotaurs: Guard the Cultists!
40 Scrap Golems: Help the Wizards!
150 Cultists: Find The Orb of Stalwart!
15 Cultists: Start up a Fantasy Store to sell the left-over Magical Items and Recruit more Cultists!
((If I can't summon Mountain Giants I replace them with around a Dozen Ogres.))

[3] You summon some low level magic stuff from the world you got sent to all those centuries ago. It's not much, but it's more than you had before. You also manage to bring some potions out, they are too small to work on you anymore, but they should keep your magically tuned cultists and minions alive a bit longer than otherwise. (gained 20x magic staff, gained 10x healing potion).
Minions:
Giants: [irrelevant] They can't do anything because they were never summoned because you can only summon so much.
Minotaurs: [4] They guard as well as can be expected for a bunch of literally bull-headed dudes. (minotaurs guarding cultists).
Golems: [6] There's not really anything they can do to make the cultists learn besides be test subjects. They can do that. (-15 golems).
Cultists:
Chosen: [6] they push the cultists to learn as hard as they can while the cultists scramble to carry out your other orders. Several cultists die from the lessons and the frustrated wizards, but you manage to get a few more wizards (10 wizards made, -50 cultists in addition).
the rest: [1] They fail to you find another orb of stalwart and misplace the one you already have. Whoops (lost access to orb of stalwart 3)
[6] They set up a grand shop and business is booming. They sell all your artifacts for tons of money and hire a few new employees/cultists (-20 magic staff, -10 healing potions, +a bunch of money, +15 cultists).
