Hethas' Gambit continued [top of rnd 8]

[seasong]

I now have moves for:

JDragon
Number47
Sollir
Jeremy
reapersaurus
Cool hand luke

I still need:

duder (he's contacted me)
Saepiroth (still haven't heard from him)

Has anyone heard from Saepiroth since his post on the 21st?

 

[Number47]

I don't think so. He doesn't seem to post much, except for the Game.

I am moving and will be without internet for a week and a half. After that, well, hopefully I can surf during work at my new job. So, I worked out what Xiao Fung accomplishes on his turn with Seasong already. Just for a teaser, let's just say that Xiao Fung does something very surprising!

 

[seasong]

Yeah, that would be the word.

 

[Saepiroth]

I don't think so. He doesn't seem to post much, except for the Game.

my internet was explodey. And I post plenty... just mostly on Somethingawful. I don't really have much to contribute, here, and I'd rather not mouth off about things I don't really know so well.

I just sent my move; it's really simple, though I'd think it's a good application of lateral thinking. And I'll KEEP thinking that, until I realize I'm wrong and turn into a bloody splatter on the adamantine walls.

 

[seasong]

Got Saepiroth's turn. And it was nice and, ah, lateral . It doesn't quite work as expected, but still, very lateral. And nice use of environment.

Duder has his on the way. I'll wait a day for that before posting Number47's Init (and possibly some others by then).

Now that I've got the blog site working again, I'll be posting them here and there (but at the blog, just editting the one post to add new Inits).

Round 6

Note: Initial conditions are identical to last round.

Init 36 - Xiao Fung

Knocked off balance slightly by Mrs Stampy's assault, Xiao Fung momentarily loses his lean and grip into the earth... and the wind takes immediate advantage. The last surviving member of the Xiao family tumbles 40 ft south through his prismatic wall to a roughshod landing downslope (11 subdual). Mrs Stampy attempts an AoO, but is too close to the prismatic wall, and avoidance of that causes her to miss.

Xiao Fung, flicking mud from his soaked robes, consumes another blast from the ice storm wand, and then utters the final syllables of a spell, disappearing entirely from view.

 

[Jeremy]

I think it's <i>cool</i> that Fung loves ice so much he keeps spending his turns chewing on it, but doesn't all that bludgeoning damage add up? Or is he healing from that too?

 

[Number47]

Who says I'm healing at all?

Maybe I just have far too many hit points to keep track of, and am trying to bring them down to a more manageable level.

 

[Jeremy]

Oh! As long as that's it.

 

[reapersaurus]

seasong - truism: the longer rounds take, the less exciting the Game is.

Question: how long does each init take to post? Let's say it's 'X'

Question: do you maybe (please?) have that 'X' amount of minutes per day to add more inits?

Comment: I'm baffled about the diet of Ice for Xiao Fung as well.
