Growth: Both points to main body.

Action: Eat all I can, focusing on DNA.  If there's time after the food's gone, get into position to hit B.


What, did everyone roll a 5 base?

You had a 4, but was much faster than the cell and it got held.

Just about everybody seemed to have good rolls. I lol'd at maxicaxis entry though, I wonder what would have happened if he had rolled a 6 there.

Anyways, I'm planning on quickly grabbing any food that is directly nearby to get that growth stage and then attack cell B which is my priority.

I have absolutely no idea what's going on in this fort any more. Migrants arrive, they die for some reason, the fort is flooded for another reason, then dwarves go mad, more dwarves die and I'm just laughing in my distress.

You don't have a mouth weapon, which is probably why you didn't succeed.

Also, I would advise against trying to do that since that sounds overpowered (in some settings it wouldn't be, but for this one, it does, at least during the cell stage, when it comes to PvP.....) and you just might run into an epic fail here as you have negative food stores and zero DNA, meaning you might end up killing yourself if you get a bad roll.

Probably want to add an action to get the DNA and food from cell B when it dies, or you may miss out on food and DNA, again.

Salvage as much DNA as I can from cell A, and from cell B if it's killed.  Also eat.

Salvage from what's left of Cell A, and Cell B if it's destroyed too, also eat.
If I still have time I heal myself.

RL intervened in the start of the weekend. Working on stuff now.  Don't worry if If there are pauses now and then, I don't intend on letting this die anytime soon.


Rolls are final numbers after modifiers.

Most of the cells just ran around grabbing up the remains of the Cell explosion, completely ignoring the now waking up Cell B. It's now aware and unhappy, and heading for Toaster.

Some of that salvage is still there to be had, but the algae is pretty picked over (-1 to algae gathering)

I guess I'll just have to try munching on algae later.

Add both points to main body.

After the growth, attack the remaining predator cell, mouth first while assuming as streamlined a form as possible.

Distraction tactic. Try to distract the remaining cell, and collect cell parts and algaes I happened to run into in the way.
After that, If I still have time, heal Frelock.

EDIT: And what was my rolls this turn?

Oh yea, just wondering, did you take my +1 scavenging into account? Can't tell whether you did or not.

Not that it matters much since I was 1 food unit away from a growth stage, which is what I wanted to get for this turn. Although it would matter if I had origionally rolled a 2.

I'll try and hold cell B still so the predators can do stuff to it.
