[QUOTE="Manbearcat, post: 9221320, member: 6696971"] [B]Goal[/B]: [I]Parley with the Grimtooths to allow/facilitate the raid on the Omthalan party, while claiming the children as payment.[/I] 4 Successes. Goal of Nested SC achieved. 6th Success in macro-SC so [B]Goal [/B]of [I]Outrace the bladeling legions from Dolg Hana to the capital gates (6 successes) [/I]met[I].[/I] [B]6/10 Successes[/B] (1 Hard DC Available)/[B]1 Failure[/B]/2 Secondary Skills Available/1 Advantages Available. [B]Goal[/B]: [I]Outrace the bladeling legions from Dolg Hana to the capital gates (6 successes) and attain audience with the Empress (10 successes)[/I]. [B]XP & Loot[/B] will be resolved at end of Heroic Tier conflict (will level up to 11 for Paragon Tier). [HR][/HR] [I]Farzin's face is buried into the body of the host rider in front of him as they gallop away. He pulls it away to look back momentarily. His mouth gapes at the site they leave behind. He looks across at his sister. Para is mirroring him. <Cut to wide shot as we watch the host of heroes gallop to the hulking gates of Bantouk...where something is amiss> The drawbridge lies curiously open. Beyond, the sounds of a heated clash of arms set to simultaneous shouts of horror and coordination. The hooves of your horses clatter upon the wood of the bridge. Bantouk's soldiers are being overwhelmed not by the Bladeling Horde...at least not yet. On all sides, vulnerable (or perhaps sympathetic?) Bantouk citizenry turned abomination by the Caiphonian Aurora assail them. From the position of the elevated northern gate you get a good look at the other wards of the city. You can see this very scene playing out all over.[/I] [HR][/HR] Do you help them with your own blood, sweat, arms, and magic? That would entail a high difficulty, [B]Nested Combat with Level +4 Encounter Budget [/B](featuring all 4 characters) and would net you [B]1 Success against the remaining HIGH DC (which you can wager your remaining Advantage for 2 x Successes)[/B]. Do you use your understanding of the secrets of the city (people, routes) to traverse a labrinthine course that gets you to the Dome of Illumination? [B][I]MEDIUM DC[/I][/B] Do you rally and bulwark the soldiers (with words or with one of your Daily resources of personnel for an auto-success) as you ride hard to the Dome of Illumination? [B][I]HIGH DC[/I][/B] Something else (I'll let you know if I'm using my remaining [B][I]HIGH DC[/I][/B] pending your move)? [/QUOTE]
