(IR) The 3rd IR, Turn 6 (thread 3)

ANSWER: The moment they enter Krynnspace, they are killed. Mina has access to 11th level magic there, but nobody else can cast magic higher than 9th level.

Iuz continues to send his missionaries... to work...

OOC: If they die in Krynnspace we do not send them... we send them to other planes the Lower Planes... Sigil... other worlds... but not Krynnspace or Toril... not crazy... just need more whorshippers

An apology

I would like to offer an apology if I offended anyone with my arguments earlier.

Hazen's image appears before Forrester, Anabstercorian, and Aurican (Uvenelei's PC).

"Do not destroy Luna! Its peoples are innocent of the sins we have committed here. Let them live."

"I should have done more. I should have fought harder. I should have tried to stop the Sunburst attacks. I gave in to my rage, and kept fighting when I should have stopped. I am mortal, frail and fallible."

"I have failed. I ask my allies to forgive me. I ask the living to forgive me. I ask the dead to forgive me. I ask the Angels to forgive me. I ask the gods to forgive me. Rao, forgive your pig-headed fool of a servant."

"I will work to atone for my part in this disaster. I will seek guidance in how to atone."

Hazen will try to save Forrester's men. They should not suffer.
He and any surviving/resurrected NPCs will tend to the wounded and try to work on rebuilding Oerth. Repentance requires more than just words. It takes action.

(I am to blame for some extent in this whole matter.)

OOC: I am going offline tonight and will not likely be back until tomorrow night. I will have a lot less free time, so my posts will diminish in number. Time for more people to step up to the plate.

Meanwhile, Forrester's people come down to the surface of Oerth to begin repairing the damage there.
This, of course, makes them easy prey for Lord Melkor and Iuz, if they decide to prevent restoration work.

The 6000PL army with 10th level magic is "easy prey"? Since when?
 

Forrester,

You need to protect your troops. Also, as the Angels are now angry with EVERYONE, I think an in character explanation is needed of your actions. It also seems that Anabstercorian is considering building a penumbral hub. Maybe he intends for Oerth to be the new capitol of a new Illithid Empire.

I also urge you to protect Luna, which is an inhabited moon orbiting Oerth. It has people on it, native life. They do not need to be blasted by Anabstercorian or Uvenelei.

FORRESTER, TAKE NOTE:

The initial people you just sent down to Oerth to repair the planet, just stopped working on the planet's problems.

The last thing your people in communication with them heard was: He's coming! Help! Help! Hel... Iuz, we bow to you, your Infernal Majesty! Command us in your name!

Um, so Iuz just kidnapped 6000PL of forces protected by 10th level magic? Does Iuz have 10th level magic?

And given that I was with the forces, he kidnapped me, too?

Um, okay.
 

Whoa, no one said Luna had people on it! No, I'm NOT going to destroy Luna.

Edena: About the Groundpounders, I said that one of the safety functions of the weapons was that the Ring Gates were all teleported back to me as soon as the weapon was set off. Unless the magnified gravity spell is extremely taxing, shouldn't I have more than 1 or 2 of them build in the past week?

OOC: Just going by what I know... but if you are down there in force... then forget it...
 

Edena, I'm cleaning up what's left of the red army which is attacking my forces seeing as their spine has been broken by dropping the sun on them. :p Interesting way of dealing with that problem I must say.

Hmm, as proud co-owner of one of the surviving chunks of Oerth, I have to say, I'm claiming every bit of the Union of Oerth's land that isn't occupied or totally destroyed.
Serpenteye-if you want it back let me know, I'm sure we can work something out.

As proud co-owner of a far greater part of Oerth, I have to say, bite me!
There is no reason for you to blame me for your suicide in the blood waste. I never agreed to anything, and regardless of what you might believe I wasn't obligated to repeat your foolish mistake. Actions have consequences and you have to take responsibility for the consequences of your own actions. You have noone to blame but yourself.
If the tattered remains of your insignificant armies enter into the territory of the Union of Oerth you will be destroyed. I really doubt that most of your allies would aid you in your unprovoked attack against a friendly faction.
__________

Forrester, Anabstercorian, Uvenelei:
Our bases on Luna have been abandoned and stripped of everything of value (all their PLs is in our secret retreat, just like all the PLs of all other provinces of the Union of Oerth), if you feel like arranging some fireworks I have no objections.
___________

Edena: The God Emperor and 100PLs of wizards and dragons will scavenge the battlefields across Oerth for unusual but potentially useful energies, the bodies/souls/energies of Angels, Demons and Devils and other powerful dead creatures and any magical items he can find. The loot will be teleported to Union research facilities to be studied and prepared for reanimation. We will not animate the corpses as undead but will attempt to animate them as objects to flesh- and energy golems.

The God-Emperor will also send 100Pls of missionaries to spread the faith across the multiverse, the published-game-setting worlds will be given extra attention. He will be known under a large number of different names, aspects and alignments, so that every imaginable creature could feel at home in his Church. The methods and teachings of his various cults would vary greatly, but they would all try to place themselves in positions of power, by rescuing or/and kidnapping princesses ;). They will also study the differing ways high magics work on different crystal spheres and try to formulate a Unified Theory of Magic.

The Union of Oerth will begin production of oerthblood-military equipment at a massive scale, we have an oerthblood rating of 5.
We will also attempt to build our own groundpounders, since their design is relatively simple it should not be too difficult. The God Emperor was both impressed and terrified by those terrible weapons, so naturally he wants some too. :)

I'd also like to express my admiration for Forsaken One's great imagination and creativity. He really deserves all that constant doubling of power. His brilliant mind is a far greater threat than my brute force. :)

Situation incompatible... I don't see how it works

Edena,
I still don't understand your ruling on the situation on research. I am confounded totally. Here is what I would like answered:

This refers specifically to Delrune and the Riftcrag, I undertand others situations are different.

1) Ok, so we all have x standing army PL. Now after the appocolyptic solar flares we are reduced to 1/3 of our previous PL. This is applied to fighting strength. We have 1/3 of our previous military. 1/3 x

2) Ok, so we have y reasearching PL. After the solar flares we are still at the whole in research. We have y research.

3) Now here is where I get confused. Forces that decided to send PL from research and convert it into combat PL gain research equal to y (unchanged) and they maintain their PL from before they fought (unchanged). So forces that quit researching to start fighting were not damaged in any way and maintain their research.

4) So it is as if their PL did both fighting and research and was completely and totally immune to damage, excluding only their fighting force. So for this turn, had the Union of Oerth attacked the Red Goo they would maintain their 3000 PL and have attacked with it and have gained everything from researching, effortlessly.

5) So if you thought you were going to fight the Goo this turn beforehand, you basically lose 2/3 of your fighting PL and you don't gain anything for being the front line. Meanwhile anyone that was going to sit around and rot was unharmed whether or not they sent anyone to do some fighting.

I probably confused you all, but that would be because I am confused... confounding, isn't it?
