Game of Death continuation thread 1

J. Anson · Jun 25, 2003

a little confused

Just so I understand, Xiao Hu was the PC, but his death does not mean the end of the Xiao family team, meaning that they could still theoretically win?

I can sort of see reasoning that everybody is already dead, and so on, I'm just curious.

Xiao Hu was a cohort, actually. Xiao Fung is the main PC (you can tell by the huge amount of smack he laid).

I do all the maps in Photoshop and move everything around on its' own little layer. All the icons are type ornaments, for ease.

Also, is Seasong doing all the rolls himself or is there some method you guys are using?

I roll 'em.

Xiao Fung is the PC.

If the PC dies, companions continue fighting and can still earn points for you, however, you will not gain points for being the last gladiator standing, nor will you be eligible to participate in the championship fight (both of which are worth 10 pts).

Also, companions earn significantly fewer points for anything they do.

As promised, corrected the Round actions, and posted the Gods' commentary.

That just really feels right, because I think Wee Jas really is closest in terms of outlook to the Xiao family. I will please her even more, now.

Glad you liked it

Can't view the maps at work, but can at home. Great job on them!

Sent in a corrected turn now that I know where people actually are.

I looked closer, and I'd like to retract my statement that the AMF's radius was nerfed.

I was using the experience from clockwork's GoD as a background understanding of the way AMF was going to be played, and that's not applicable here.

seasong - you not only didn't nerf the AMF range, I think you are interpreting it absolutely correctly.
I'm sorry for calling it a nerf - I am combatting with Victim (Maturak, with his AMF) in a challenge in Fight Club, and I had that as a background example in mind when thinking your way was nerfing it:
it's not, it's just different than AMF has been run up to now.

The Horn nerf and your sucky rolls, however, are screwing me over.

just kidding.
The Horn I agree with, and the rolls are rolls - I might get lucky in a later round.

I'll tell you who got the shaft - Mr. Stampy, that's who!
The indigo ray turning him into a pot-head who loves grass is just wrong.

No prob. I'd rather discuss it and get at the truth (even in those times I'm wrong), and you were polite about it the entire time, so we're totally

.

That's kind of what I thought - area effects in D&D 3e are not wholly intuitive.

Heck, even with sucky rolls, you did major smack.
