Marvel Avengers, 1889 [Full]

[Blind Azathoth]

In response to Elric's OOC comment in the main thread: The total of my roll was 11; the actual rolled number was just 5.

 

[Redclaw]

[sblock=H4H]I thought I should let you know... I'm lurking your RHoD game, as my face-to-face group is just starting chapter three tomorrow. We almost got wiped out where your PCs are right now, so I'm interested to see how they do.[/sblock]

I must've got confused, I thought you said it was a Lethal attack.. meaning save vs death. (Was kinda wondering why a baddie had a "75% chance to KILL YOU" attack.)

As for the Regen - I believe the power has a line about 'it would cost 35 points to make one of each check every round'(Paraphrase, don't have book in front of me ATM), leading one to believe that it's 1 check per condition, but you still can't recover from one thing if you have something worse (Can't make a bruised recovery check unless you recover from disabled/etc first.)

I have actually asked both of these questions in AtomicThinkTank's official rules forum: You have to recover from conditions in order and you only get one recovery check a round:

Also, Jemal, you took being killed during the surprise round better than I could ever imagine taking it. I would be like "wtf, you killed me during the surprise round of the first combat, you rat-bastard!"

Oops, sorry. Jemal had made the mistake I mentioned earlier, so I thought you had made it as well.

For tactics: Banshee, Gargoyle King and Hellstone all seem very dangerous due to special attacks. Shayuri, you might want to just attack for no: you'll get the inspire bonus and with a ranged attack staggered doesn't do that much to you until you pick up another one, in which case you're KOd.

Jemal's playing Wolverine! You know he wouldn't be dead for long...

Well, I'm not too sure we aren't SUPPOSED to lose this combat... hehe

We'll see how our 1st real round goes.

[sblock=redclaw] They are making some bad mistakes, between the inactions of some, and provoking of attacks from others. I dont know how they will fair. [/sblock]

[sblock] So, does putting things in a spoiler block mean we're not supposed to read your commentary?

Just let us know...since it's only been one surprise round and you seem to have some suggestions about what we're supposed to do or not.[/sblock]

LOL, Redclaw was commenting on a game I DM, not this combat, and I was replying to it. Sorry for the confusion.

And generally yes, it is considered polite to not read spoilers that are not addressed to you, though in this case; no harm no foul I suppose.

 

[Shayuri]

Well, I'm not just staggered, I'm stunned too.

But I guess I can use an HP to recover.

However, if they keep beating on me before my init, odds are good I'll be well and truly out long before I can act.

We'll see how it goes, I guess.

The stun only lasts for one round, until just before your attacker's next turn...unless I am mis-reading the rules on page 164.

It's too bad the villain targeting you goes FIRST. But that does mean you're no longer stunned at the top of the round.

Let's see how Round 1 goes....a few of us have some tricks up our gloves.
