Extradimensional Beings (ooc and questions lll)
Re: Extradimensional Beings (ooc and questions lll)
Hey redwarrior and SilverBen,
I need a clarification for your orders please:
If Maskelyn casts an illusion of a wall of fire between you two and the Sleestaks before you act, do you still attack the Sleestaks and/or press forward to the Sleestaks?
If yes, you will pass through the illusory flames (which Connak and Finver have seen before and know to be an illusion), fyi.
Thanks.

Connak will attempt to strike at one, if he can before the wall appears. When it springs into being, he will jump back in “fear.”

Thanks. And if the wall appears before he acts?

He'll jump back, to try to reinforce the illusion.Inferno wrote: ↑Sun Jan 16, 2022 8:04 pmredwarrior wrote: ↑Sun Jan 16, 2022 6:41 pm Connak will attempt to strike at one, if he can before the wall appears. When it springs into being, he will jump back in “fear.”

Thanks, redwarrior for the clarification.

Ko-nan is thinking that with the cave mouth opening up, we could fight two abreast and take the onslaught on one at a time. That assumes of course there isn't anything hidden in this cavern . Ko-Nan tho is low on hit points and may not last long. Best to die facing the enemy tho.
Might be time to see if that magical watch could help us open a whole in the floor again? Not sure if that's a finite thing or needs some time to reset - maybe that's plan b?

Re: Extradimensional Beings (ooc and questions lll)
Moving to two-abreast sounds good. Mungo has the watch, and I debated trying to use it this turn. But decided to try to take out a zombie overlord and see what effect that would have. Not sure if that was the right decision. Especially since I rolled a 1.

Re: Extradimensional Beings (ooc and questions lll)
on the bright side, if you rolled that 1 with the watch - it would have broken completely or would have dumped us right on top of the approaching mob .
Good to get that 1 out of the way early

Two abreast sounds like a good plan.

1 is the loneliest number that you'll ever do.

Jemmus, love the musical addition! I was toe tapping!

Sorry, SilverBen. That's three and a half days. Onward!

Hi redwarrior,
I'm afraid it won't. He's in the second rank. But he can fire his bow over Finver the dwarf. Please roll for the bow. Thanks.

Arrow 1
Short Bow THAC0 19 [1d20+1]=1+1=2 Damage [1d6]=4
Arrow 2
Short Bow THAC0 19 [1d20+1]=13+1=14 Damage [1d6]=5
Arrow 1: Fortunately for Finver, whose head you're firing over, we don't have fumbles in this game.
Arrows 1 and 2: I don't think your macro is correct. You have bonuses to hit with missile weapons for your Dex, and you also have racial bonuses for Catman too (please see PC races).
I'll modify your roll here, but you should adjust it next time, please. Please let me know if you don't have a 1e Player's Handbook and I can help out. Thanks, red!

Re: Extradimensional Beings (ooc and questions lll)
You're correct, I totally forgot the racial bonus when I build the macro.

Hi Jemmus,
Sorry but Mungo (purple MU) can't reach the "evil overlord" (blue S37). Orange S30 is the Altrusian Wandering Master.
Please see map from my DM post (below), and feel free to update your post. Thanks.

Moving this to OOC thread...
Sure thing, SilverBen.
Fyi: in 1e, PCs don't die til they reach -10hp.
And you also have a war hammer if you want to do more damage than a dagger, btw.

Finver is presently locked at the line of scrimmage with a shield and dagger because he lacks a decent missile weapon to do any damage. With his fat, clumsy hands, any attempt to throw the dagger may well ricochet back between his own two eyes. And, given how low he is on hit points, that may just do our dwarven friend in for the game and send him on his way to greet the Sheriff.
Which brings me to my one request for Inferno: if Finver begins knock, knock, knockin on Heaven's Door, I just ask for one final post.
