John Connor steps forth from his temporal distortion and lunges at the unconscious body in front of him, his sword disappearing as he strikes, his body following after.
Suddenly he appears near IG88 and invisibly stalks his prey. Calling forth his powers from another time he launches nanobots into the musculature of Dav's robotic skeleton.
He then appears from his newest temporal right and strikes at IG88, unleashing the fury of his hatred for all robots and immediately disappears again.
Tech: It's complicated unAssume the Void at L11 Standard: Vanishing Blade on Odesso. +3 v AC (+5 for Unconscious?) 2d10 damage and I teleport 5 and become invisible.
(move and minor)I teleport to G12, use 2 squares to move to F12 and drop my Aegis on Dav2.
(Action Point) I use Avalanche Strike on IG88 +8+2(for CA) v AC, 3d10 +5, +1d12 from Essence of Death if needed to knock him out.
After (if)I hit, I teleport 3 to right where I'm at, get kicked around, and hopefully stopped by Odesso's body. If not, I make a saving throw to stop at L11.
Morthos casually strolls over to Renalto, and attaches a small mine to the Human's frail body. "THIS WILL BE PAINFUL."
[tech] Trap Switch goes off automatically at the start of my turn. If Wall-e or Dav2 is in the blast they resist 5 Minor - sustain Moment of Glory Move - Move to J4 (Wall-e moves to D10) Standard - Inevitable Doom on Renalto. The next attack made against the target before the end of my next turn deals 2d8 extra damage on a hit or a miss.
Raaargh stands up and plucks the dagger out of his side letting it drop into the balor blood filled chasm below. He doesn't even hear it hit the bottom before he is jumping from platform to platform with the goal of hacking IG-88's metal body apart.
move: stand up standard: charge IG-88 jumping from platform to platform. I'm +9 to athletics and it is DC 10 to clear one square so that is auto. Jump to D15, jump to E13 attack +11 (+8 normally, +1 whip, +2 CA from flanking) vs. AC 17. If I hit activate Takedown Strike as a free action. Damage is 1d12(high crit)+1d6+11 (+5 str, +1 whip, +5 takedown strike - not used earlier because it trigger on a hit and I rolled a 1) and knock IG prone.
Fuck yeah, we're gonna blitzkrieg this round with posts!
@Raargh: I think Morthos has a point, as the closest square to IG-88 is D13 (2 squares away), which would clearly not be an advisable charging destination. (Charges must end at the nearest square.) You can hop to the next Bone Platform as a move and then either end your turn or action point (if you've got one) to charge from there.
Charge doesn't say anything about a straight line, but it does say that each square has to move you closer to the enemy which moving from B15 to D15 doesn't do (if you go back # of squares of distance) so Raargh will do it in one mighty leap!
Odesso senses a great disturbance in the force! 00110011001111100101100101100111!
The heart of Malcanthet is back on the pedestal! Primary objective found! His circuitry is not fully compatible, but he retains enough free RAM to leave this plane and its inhabitants behind for time being...
Tech: Odesso runs to the heart pedestal at CS (one move action), uses a minor action to grab the heart, then assumes the void (minor action).
Free action: Who says you need to actually hit an enemy to win?
IG-88 puts his metallic finger up in a "just a moment" gesture to Feltek and John, and steps to the edge to watch Raaargh fall to his demony doom. Too bad - that was a good microblade.
Coming back with a goody and his vibroblade ready, IG-88 thanks his prey for waiting, and commences to spin his blade around in robotic fury!
[Tech] Move: Escape Artist's Trick to shift to E-13 and back. Standard: MBA vs CTF, with Dark Reaping, Takedown Strike, and Sneak Attack Attack: +10 vs AC Hit: 3d6+17 damage (+7, +4 Dark Reaping, +5 Takedown Strike)
I might AP, but that depends on the goody from E-13.
no, that's not right at all. It is a +18. the bonus to damage is against enemies in the aura. There's nothing about you needing to be in the aura as well.
Ha! Jon Green is right; I misunderstood what was said in the last round when this was discussed, and didn't bother to actually look it up! Minotaur stubborness shall RULE THE DAY! (Or actually, just get himself damaged a little more.)
Things are heating up as the Heart is grabbed for (likely) the last time this match!
Power-Up (10): QUAD DAMAGE!!!
This PowerUp is the kind of table-turning thing that happens in these FTDM events. As you all are starting to see, planning your turn out more than one or two dungeoneers ahead of you is pretty much pointless; everything changes so damned fast!
MBA: (1) HUMILIATION!
OH SNAP!!! That's another one of those crazy die roll/card draw events that keeps this game so damned exciting!
CT Feltek smashes his opponent.. IN THE FACE! He then uses Chinese Remainder Theorems to explain how a planar graph works so that Schliermacher can explain true religion to the non-believing botmen... and explain he does! Take THAT Dav'2!
Standard: Howling Strike vs Dav'2, +8 to hit, 1d12+1d6+6 damage on hit.
P.S. If anyone is awesome at modular arithmetic, and interested in prime number theory, let me know. Exams make my bull-headedness BLEED WITH POWER!
(12)+8=20 vs. AC 20; Hit! for (5)+(6)+6= 17 damage! With the resistence, the bloodied, plate-armored Pixie is brought down to the ground and dropped unconscious at -5 HP!!!

Depending on how things play out, you may be shot off to your death at the start of your next turn via the Telethrower.

Most unfortunate for QuadCore, Wall-E and Dav'2 take an (effective) 5 damage!
Wall-E is at down to 11 HP.
Dav'2 is bloodied at 7 HP.
Inevitable Doom dice will be rolled when triggered.

With a charge, you can't jump from platform to platform, you have to move in a straight line and make the entire jump, so it's a DC20

My math is funny. The damage what's there is +16, but with the bear aura, it should be +18, yes?
ReplyDeleteno, you need to be in the aura and attacking someone who is also in the aura. It is still +16.
ReplyDeleteThat's cool. IG-88 is not all that familiar with this... Wall-E model. Some kind of toxic cleanup droid?
ReplyDeleteno, that's not right at all. It is a +18. the bonus to damage is against enemies in the aura. There's nothing about you needing to be in the aura as well.

Well, in that case, I'll hold onto the AP. any chance I could Athletics on the shift 2 from my previous move action to get to D15?
ReplyDeleteYes absolutely! I see that your Athletics bonus is +5

Dav'2 is at full HP with 10 temporary hit points, but Renato is pushed away and takes 5 damage to be bloodied at 8 HP!!!
Renato starts his turn with enemies in the crosshairs to wrap up Round 04!
forced movement doesn't provoke OA. the telethrowers are a push effect, so it doesn't allow Renato to take an OA
ReplyDeleteThe OA comes from moving from L6 to L5.
