I had thought Rabon earned a check getting the stained glass down, but I see now that there was never a test. I had planned to earn one while attempting to recover the picks.

On the upside, it looks like the check-log on my character sheet is up to date! :P

We only have 2 willing to attack the skeletons? So lets just head into town, spend the loot, and do that in the next adventure.

Thag, Rabon and Berry are willing. With Jhhrsn MIA, I don't know if we can use Aoife. For help, I would guess.

If you still feel this way, Rabon will try to retrieve his lockpicks, and earn a check for camping. But if we do a combat, we have more opportunities to spend Fate and Persona. ;)

Everyone was willing to fight the skeletons.

We now are uncertain of Aiofe, with Jhhrsn MIA.

Allric was going to sit out because he is potentially more of a liability in a Kill conflict. If you want him to join in, he can offer a 2D Health roll for a Maneuver. (He has no Fighter skill.)

Who will lead the combat or at least roll for Disposition. Thag isn't Fresh, so one of you should roll to get the +1D. I can take the first combat action though.

It is Thag's goal being followed. It is his idea. He should lead the charge.

Mechanically, Rabon isn't Fresh, and Berry and Allric have lower health and fighter stats. (I can't really remember what is rolled for Disposition right now.)

I checked, and Thag and Rabon would have the same roll.

In a Kill conflict the Disposition Health + Roll Fighter + any help

Thag: 5 +3D +2D for Berry & Rabon help
Rabon: 5 +2D +1D for Fresh +2D for Berry & Thag help

Everyone but me got the Fresh condition back in the dark chapel.

So I'll roll for Disposition and be conflict captain.

Ludanto: don't read the spoiler here until after you've made your choices
For player eyes only until after the fight
I'll lead with an offensive strike - Attack with sword, using Grim-Visage if I can
Rabon will follow with type of Attack with panache
Berry will use Maneuver to try to recover any HP we lost, or to gain an advantage for next round

Bill,
Ludanto just wants you to make an IC post about your attack. Then he'll tell us what to roll.

Ludanto,
What do you want us to do about Aiofe's? Can we use her for help?

Everyone,
Do you need Allric to join in?

If Aoife's out, we might as well get used to it. No help from her. She must be distracted.

For bill
I think you mean defend to get back health, or maneuver for advantage. I'd caution 2 attack in a row though, skeletons aren't tough in the health department, and we might accidently kill them while missing a fair amount of disposition ourselves, but I shall defer to you, as you are conflict captain.

Yay! We're moving again!!!!

Rabon doesn't have Fresh. His Nature was taxed when Anvil was triggered, IIRC.

Nice disposition roll. And to plan ahead, Rabon will have:
2D (fighter) + 2D (help from Thag and Berry) + 1D (Persona to add 1D) - 1D (rough hands against myself to gain a check). = 4D
If given the chance, I'll reroll any 6's as well to spend my last Fate, too.

Let me know if that math is wrong, please. Or if I am missing a change to add to my dice pool. Also, is there a difference (mechanically) in using the dagger or the magic hand axe in this conflict? They are unarmed and they don't fly, so it should be the same, right?

The flying creatures thing is a one time magic effect. The normal effect is that you can choose to throw it if we need to change an Independent test to a Versus test. That's pretty useful.

Consider using the Flask of Holy Water in the off-hand instead of the dagger. It gives +1s to attack or feint in this combat.

That being the 4th Persona spent, it almost feels wasted, but since it was the die that rolled a 6, thereby allowing me to spend a third Fate point, it doesn't feel so bad. :) And now we have a check to camp after this is finished. Good luck to Berry.

We've got to go through our inventories. Without Aoife present, we lose a lot of inventory slots.

And let me know if this is wrong, but Attack vs Defend is a versus test, so Thag should mark off a failed test, correct?

Yes. Versus test for advancement.

I hadn't thought about the effects of turning them in a conflict, nice play with the three defends, Ludanto.

But that is over. It seems likely they'll just attack now. Other than that, I don't have much to offer. :P

That was my idea too, now that we've broken the "spell" they will go on the offensive. So I think we should not risk Feinting and go straight for Attack.

Let's do Attack, Attack, Defend. Rabon, Thag, Berry in that order.

Rabon, you're up, Berry has Maneuvered us into position so you have +2D and they have -1D. I will assist using my Sword to keep one of them at bay while you strike the first one.
