S@squ@tch's Against the Giants - Team Black OOC - Grinding

[s@squ@tch]

OK, getting somewhat back on topic -- Aeranduil is waiting for giant to go, along with a few others, like Sanne.

Morika intends to charge -- I was of the opinion that one could only charge if you had a straight line movement, so I would think she couldn't charge this round, but could move into position so that she could next round. Correct me if I am mistaken.

Voadam wants to Grease the squares under the giant.

Did I miss anyone else's actions? Yoggrith/Thanor?

Per RAW, that is correct. Although I believe there are certain feats and class abilities that can change this.

I believe you can only CHARGE in straight line, but rules say nothing about moving 20' in one direction and then charging in straight line in another.

I don't mind waiting, altough I don't like giving time for the giant to grab some weapon or holer for help.

Maybe to adjust actions in such way that giant moved another round toward us before elf popped out and missed him?

Except charge is a full round action, meaning you can't move first and then charge.

Aeranduil doesn't miss very often. Actually, I'm pretty sure that on that shot he could only miss on a Natural 1

 

[s@squ@tch]

@rhun, you are quite correct -- only had a 5% chance to miss and invisible castle gave it to you.

@neurotic, if you find something that says that it is legal to take a move action, THEN charge in the same round, please let me know.

@all, I think Voadam is still in the intermittent-connectivity phase of his move, so I'll NPC him this round, which I think would include having him delay until after the giant.

Thanor's init means he can't act until the giant does. As soon as he can, he'll close in and try to cut its feet out from under it.

Re: charging--
4E has charging as a standard action, so one can move then charge. Sadly that is a change from 3.5, so it is not possible.

And just because I enjoy being juvenile once in a while:

"when I get time to analyze butt damage"

heh heh, he said "butt damage".

That's a bummer. If your dwarf wasn't so loud in his armor, we'd just make him lead the way!

I noticed another bummer with shifters:
if I get reincarnated a) standard table does not contain shifters and b) most of my feats are shifter specific.

Shouldn't they get some racial feats as bonus? This way if you take class that doesn't grant feats (such as ranger, monk or fighter) you spend all of your feats just to improve your shifting. and if you don't you're better off playing almost any other race in Eberron. Unless you realy realy realy want to be cultured werecreature

Oh, also note: english is NOT my native language so I tend to type correct spellings. I'll be brash, rude etc as is Morika's want, but don't expect some kind of 'wut d'ya want' accent in typing

You know, I never noticed you weren't a native english speaker. Your english writing is always great! And to be honest, it has been so long since Morika's original player posted that nobody is going to notice if she starts talking differently all of a sudden.

 

[Neurotic]

Occasionaly it happens something along the lines of Prayer to the Lord or Rocking Chair that I cased like ?Our Father? or ?Relaxation chair? after which I'd explain what I mean and somebody would provide correct translation.

All in all I don't have problems with english and due to schooling I'm capable of communicating in German, but sometimes idioms and phrases and things that translate differently cause problems.

One such was the phrase 'next weekend'. In my language next weekend means not first following today (that would be 'this weekend'), but the one more then 7 day ahead.
