Epic Game

[Paxus Asclepius]

The problem is, I am not sure that we know a place several miles north of the High Woods. Paxus?

You have been several miles north of the High Woods; in your careers, you've been pretty much everywhere. Besides, with Greater Teleport, only a rough description is needed.

 

[Wrahn]

Even if we don't, Tal can still LOS 'port and be there in a matter of minutes.

Depends on how close we can get.

All depends on your definition of rough description, which varies from GM to GM. But that answers the question.

Depends on how close we can get.

I would think that with Greater Teleport at will and Persistant Quickshift active anywhere within a 1000 miles would be close enough.

Tal can 'port in 5-10 mile jumps twice* every six seconds.

*Once as a free action due to Quickshift and once as a standard action.

 

[Pyrex]

Pax? You there?
We're off to a good start, I don't want to see this game die...

 

[Wrahn]

Paxus hasn't been too active this week, I had assumed that he was in Finals week.

by the way, Pyrex, are you actually in the G v E wargameand if so were you one of those who had been assassinated?

 

[Pyrex]

Yep. I'm on the Evil side.
I was the only general of the three not assassinated.
(given the fight I haven't had a chance to do much yet though)

I was gone for a while, now I'm back. Will post ASAP, but finishing up all my OOC "I'm back" posts first. For explanation, check out my "EXPERIENCE" OOC thread.

 

[Pyrex]

Experimentation will show that the entire Northlands, the River Kingdoms, and everything in between, and at least one day's normal travel on any side, is so blocked

Well, that certainly makes things more difficult.

Are there any reasonable explanations other than "Thor did it"?

No reason for Thor to block Hierakonpolis; if it wasn't barred, he could simply collect his army, then Gate them into the middle of the city. One imagines, though, that the Egyptian pantheon might not like that idea, and so have protected their own territory, and a few nearby locations as well, to slow the advance of the Norse.

 

[Pyrex]

Interesting point. There are three distinct regions that have been warded (north of the high wood, the high wood and Heirakonpolis).

I hadn't considered that different entities could be responsible for warding each area.
