H4H: Red Hand of Doom (full)

[EvolutionKB]

Well, I was torn between the battle leaders charge and the mountain hammer. I went with the hammer because I could gain temp hp and not fall. If I had used the charge, I probably would have hit(21 w/charge) and done around 25 or so damage, but then I would fall unconscious. I figured I had better use stone power/mountain hammer, hope I roll high and hit, and then get lucky and the manticore doesn't hit me next round. As is, I rolled low with the hammer and probably missed. The bright side is the temp hp will absorb all my DDP, so I'll have few hp left. Hopefully if it does hit me and I drop, it will stop attacking me and focus on you guys. Hopefully then you guys can knock it out before I bleed out. I'm taking that level of cleric next, if I live. Getting rid of the domains for domain feats as decribed in Complete Champion, if that is okay H4H, of course. If not I'm going another level of crusader and getting the next higher level healing attack 3d6+IL.

Rereading this I am not sure what "getting rid of domains for domain feats" means but I will look into it.

Those who survive the encounter will be levelling up.

Which means: Tiamat is in the tower.

Though since you have taken the extra responsibility and been maintaining the inventory I will allow Virishal access to any unclaimed potions.

My thought process here is that if we have a few rounds of respite if/when we drop the manticore, Virashil could pass a few out if needed.

Well the basics of it are: As a normal character you can only have a limited number of domain feats, two if they are similar in style for your character(Like animal and plant devotion feats for a druid). If one is a cleric they can sacrifice their domains(spells from those as well as granted powers)to choose the corresponding domain feat(to gain up to three total). For Sir Jonathan, I had planned to take the level in cleric(I've been trying to point this out IC), and sacrifice the domains for the Law and Good devotion feats. I'd have little to gain from the levels of cleric otherwise(my Wis is 10), this way I could still fufill my roles as tank(Law domain grants 1/day +3 to AC or +3 to attack, switchable every round) and my role and party enhancer(Good grants DR 2/Evil).

I would allow the Feats, but probably not replacing domains.

I would suggest you do not take cleric. Being restricted to zero level spells isn't too useful.

Duroin, maybe a 5' step diagonal to flank? If you delay until my turn, then we both get the benefit and you get to sneak attack.

Already noted that!

I think the map may be incorrect -- right now Duroin is sitting in M6 (instead of M8, which is what Rhun posted in his action for last round) -- am I reading the map wrong?

Does Duroin's counter just need to be moved to M8?

 

[ethandrew]

Nooo, I think I was just incorrect. I thought Jonathan's token was Duroin's. But Hero's already noted this as well. Hmmmm. What to do...

Map is fixed. Thanks for the heads up guys.
