Viridian Plague OOC 2, orphaned by Keia

[Rystil Arden]

Looks like full attack is most likely then. Not willing to go through that many attacks of opportunity with the 'pass through' higher DC of difficulty.

If that's what you're worried about, remember that M'ress's AC is obscene enough that she could just waltz past them and probably not be hit

 

[Keia]

I was more worried about failing the tumble check and being unable to pass through an enemy square - wasting her round essentially. Being completely surrounded as per the new map she couldn't just walk out of the encirclement.

That's true Then again, she got her AoOs for the surrounding thing, so she can leave happy

Hey, I thought Trayah was inside the boat.

 

[Rystil Arden]

(OOC: He is indeed, just barely--everyone else (by which I mean M'ress and Slagg) has advanced up to the edge. However, you had line of sight to them from the shattered roof and walls, and the bird has reach. If you guys had all actually gone farther down below where the explosions are coming from, it would have prevented the bird from following and limited the creatures from ganging as much--I mentioned this when M'ress chose to charge forward earlier, but she did it anyway valiantly to protect Whinoah)

 

[unleashed]

OOC: I thought Trayah was at least 5 feet back from the edge of the ship, so had cover from the roof and could only see the bird because it was at a distance from the open side of the ship (and not because he could see through holes in the roof/walls). Had I known he was so exposed he would have moved further back. :\

 

[Rystil Arden]

(OOC: If he had been far enough back, he wouldn't have been able to fire at these targets. As it is, he can only attack and be attacked by targets also in the ship (the dip over the top prevents this), but the broken ceiling allows them all inside without a problem if they can climb or fly. As mentioned, the lower areas are more cordoned off. What stopped them before was M'ress and Slagg blocking the way.)

 

[unleashed]

OOC: Ah, well the problem with that is that Trayah was only seeking the shelter of the ship to avoid flying creatures (as he was himself flying), so placing him where they could get at him made the entire exercise of seeking shelter pointless.

 

[Rystil Arden]

(OOC: Sort of, although it made it harder, since the bird was forced to fly low and in to get to him. If he had gone further back to a point where he was too far to target the enemies or allies, he would have been totally safe from the bird and heavily protected from the other guys (at the cost of not being able to contribute))

 

[unleashed]

OOC: Alternatively though, if I'd known Trayah could be gotten at in the ship (from above), he could have kept flying and fighting from the air.
