The Unseen Servant forums

Just waiting on a post from Spearmint, but will be moving this forward one way or another this evening.

Sorry. Have been busy with a number of issues.

Will stay for the moment and observe the groups movements to make sure they are headed in the directions indicated, he does not want to spread the group to thinly and allow opponents to pick off stragglers. He will use arm movements to indicate movements to others as needed, keeping vocal commands to a minimum.

I can’t help thinking this is a foolish plan. Given we are facing a dragon, and their breath weapons are extremely dangerous, and bunching up all together to make it easier for the dragon to kill us all at once seems like suicide.
No?

This is a great comment and I am definitely open to alternatives. I am/was trying to separate the group into two teams, one driving in from the left and the other on the right of the green circle on the map. Other possibilities: retreat and stay in our present positions.

Qleceec is outnumbered (heavily) and fighting on her own. Some sort of help would be nice. You will be hearing her cry for help shortly.

Oh I didn’t realise it was a two team thing. It seems like a one team staying together thing. The high hp members of the party could potentially survive the breath weapon but not the lower hp party members.

We are all fairly close I think apart from the ranger now. Right? Although I think Androgost is follows her if I have it right in my minds eye

Androgost is the closest to her. Anyone coming to her aid needs to avoid the gas cloud.

Welcome redwarrior!

The new map really helps, I had imagined the battlefield completely wrong. How does this sound: Androgost and Nah move forward to support Qleceec's position. Garrant drops an Ice Storm into the highest concentration of enemies. Hex, Raffi, and Siouxsie move up as well, in a new direction, avoiding the cloud that is currently moving to the left.

Seems like a reasonable plan. The question is if we see all our opponents at this point.

It's knowing where to drop the spell. I was going to use a Web to slow some up once I can see a target.

See this post. There are a lot more than marked on the map.

Seeing Androgost and Nah Olos, "There are more than a dozen more with some other creatures I couldn't make out on the platform. They are splitting into 3 groups and flanking us. We are about to be heavily outnumbered."

What's the groups feeling here? Commit and drive forward or pull back and regroup hoping they don't chase us?

Just for the record - Androgost is the only one with an action remaining this round and then other side will get to act before anyone can further react (e.g. driving forward, holding position or pulling back)

And given Androgost's "values" I guess he will not be the first to retreat.

We are committed so we see what happen and then decide. I have had to abandon my horses and drop my bow to get back to where she is. Otherwise I was going to be surrounded.

I am at work and can't access the roller from work so will update a fumble roll when I get home tonight. But, if you need it before that to keep things moving feel free to make the roll for me.

Sounds great, I will not get to write the post till my evening and since you are three hours ahead from a time zone point of view - I would guess you will beat me. You are by far the most responsive player on this board.

Yup, probably true.

Sorry guys, I royally screwed up Garrant!



I'm considering the best worse option.

I am not sure Garrant is doing any worse than Qleceec. She has already used her 2 most powerful potions and has lost more hp than most of the group has at max.
