Off To War... Recriutment/Discussion

[Frozen Messiah]

alright I have some questions...

1) So I have the villagers or men-at-arms?

2) Do I have barricades?

3) How much cover does the barricades give?

4) does anyone have ranged attacks and if they do will it make a difference?

HM. Just checking. Has Trinham's level 4 update been approved?

Lora is taking Rainbow Pattern. Regroup, is that in the PHB2? Please state the sources if they are not SRD

regroup is PHB2 I thought it a good spell to have for this.

1 & 2) You are in charge of the villiagers who will be behind the main barricade.

3) the main barricade gives total cover to those directly behind it (about 24 people) and a normal +4 cover bonus to those not. add on total defense and a villiager could have a 19 AC.
The two small barricades give cover (+4 AC) and are portable, needing about 4 men to move them.

4) that will come in game as you get ready with the Treylor advancing.

Yes Trinham is approved for LVL 4, sorry it took so long couldn't remember if I had approved or not. Question why didn't you trade out your Sleep spell??

Truthfully, It never occurred to me that I could do that. Is it too late to exchange Sleep for Color Spray?

are we meant to be able to shoot and attack through the barricades? The way I read it, I'm behind the center 10' wall which gives me total cover from the elves by hiding them from me.

and can I assume that they handed out Light crossbows?




Change of plan, I use the creation scroll to create a blanket of hemp cloth that covers/is attached to the front side of the center barricade, (10'x45'x.2133 inches thick) that should immediately be treated with water to prevent fire arrows from taking immediate hold, making it easier to put the fires out.

I will wait until the Treylor warriors have reached melee range and engage our melee fighters to cast the bless and magic weapon spells, in that order.

If i read the map right, I should be able to bless the entire army with my 50' Radius (+1 Attack, saves v fear)

So I have the cure scroll and creation scrolls, Lora has rainbow pattern and regroup, and lets say Trinham takes the Color spray with Claude the hopefully mounted paladin taking the heal mount?

not going mounted, larger target would get hit by more arrows. going on foot at this point.

Allied Units?

Saw the map was empty of allied units. It left me with little to work with in my recent post. I figured the Treylor would be firing upon our scrambling workmen and broken formations. But with Frozen's sweet speech, it sounds like all the allies are in place and ready. (...and that I'm the only one in front of the wood. Haha.) Whatever. All good.

@Frozen: Nice speech. You should do that more often.

@Myth: Great presentation. Loved the chewed mint.

@Gondsman: She was lucky. Just FYI... Lolz. XD

@Ghostcat: I love your cat. I want one too.

It's all good because you are the only one out there you gain an automatic advantage over large groups of enemies...or else every japanese movie I have ever seen has lied to me.

Okay, where is everyone ending up? This is what happens when no one sticks around/pays attention to discuss troop layouts… I’m still going to keep as much as possible to my formation plan posted a little earlier.

sorry, no discussion here, all chiefs no Indians, all ideas and no follow-through, except Marko but he had his own plan anyway. Plan A "kill stuff" Plan B "kill more stuff", doesn't take any materials he doesn't actually have, and doesn't require anyone else to care/help. Probably why Lurik has recently basically said "to heck with it" and just done what he wants to. How's the quote go? "We can die together, or some of us may live alone"
