Beltarne: ((It had 7?))
Wolfgang: eh? wasn't it at 6?
Marik: (Lernaen Hydra Snake Demon!)
GM: You're right, it's down to to 5!

** Shelley is not going to mix it up with the blender beast, and all of the little guys are staying out of reach for the moment. Sheath sword. "ALpha, go do Delta's job and stop that snake demon from throwing rocks!" **
Shelley: ***
 9) YOUR TURN NOW:: [24] Snake Demons

GM: Sure!
GM: Delta takes [15+12+6+12+9+15+6] => 75
GM: well.
Shelley: Delta is totally dead, I'm sure.
Wolfgang: what skill for that, just parry?
Shelley: [-39-75] => -114
GM: Parry at -2, Wolfgang. Are Hatchets U weapons?
Shelley: Parry at, what, -2 to get to make the attack IIRC?
Shelley: Yes
Shelley: I think
GM: No, they're not. -2 parry against the weapon to be used to make the attack.
Wolfgang: Hatchet parry [3d6.skill(13,-3-2-2+3)] => [4,6,5] = 15 vs (9) or less Failure! by 6 
Wolfgang: darn
Shelley: No, they're not!
Wolfgang: was trying for the arm
Shelley: But yeah, 15 is no good
Shelley: You don't need the arm penalty in there
Shelley: That goes on the attack later
Wolfgang: still, fail
Shelley: Ya :(
GM: No shield bonus, either.
GM: anyhoo.
 10) YOUR TURN NOW:: [24] Vine Automata 
(on deck: [29] Ghazeb) 
Wolfgang: yah, I put in -3 for that, since it's in the macro
Shelley: Still out of control!
Vinemen: Move forward, trying to get out of the turn aura.
 1) YOUR TURN NOW:: [29] Ghazeb 
(on deck: [28] Thasos) 
** Ghazeb stands and turns to face Peshkali 2. **
Wolfgang: also, hatchets are U, this is a dwarven axe, so it's not, but my hatchet macros are the right skill level since my normal axe macroes are for the balenced weapon bonded axe
Ghazeb: ((or the best he can do))
Wolfgang: ((dwarven, silvered axe that is))
GM: okay.
 2) YOUR TURN NOW:: [28] Thasos 
(on deck: [28] Marik)

Snake Demon: Dodge and sidestep [3d6.skill(10,2-2)] => [5,2,3] = 10 vs (10) or less Success! by 0 
Thasos: ((i should have thrown more DA into that))
Snake Demon: You hit, penalty should have been -3 at least.
Snake Demon: Damage?
Thasos: Meteor Hammer [2d6+3+0] => [5,6,3,0] = (14) cr
Snake Demon: Doesn't even blink, but doesn't have eyelids anyway.

Winged Demon: Resist feint [3d6.skill(15)] => [1,6,1] = 8 vs (15) or less Success! by 7 
Marik: I thought it was -5 outside the red circles?
Winged Demon: Dodge and retreat, drop [3d6.skill(9,4+2-2-2)] => [3,3,2] = 8 vs (11) or less Success! by 3 
Marik: Alas.
Marik: ###
GM: Red/orange/yellow circles are no penalty, everything else is -3
Marik: Oh.
Marik: I'll keep that in mind.
 4) YOUR TURN NOW:: [28] Skeletal Automata 
(on deck: [25] Winged Demons) 
Shelley: Is #2 carrying any rocks?
GM: Yes, in 1 hand right now.
Shelley: Alpha will step and attack her from the flank, then, attempting to sever the hand carrying rocks!
Shelley: That's a long attack, so Committed I think.
GM: Okay!
GM: One more step, then.
Shelley: From BEHIND then ahahahaha
Shelley: Telegraphed!
GM: Okay.
Shelley: Axe/Mace (14) [3d6.skill(14,-2-4)] => [1,5,3] = 9 vs (8) or less Failure! by 1 Includes: +4pts from 'Skeletal Servitor'
Shelley: wat
Shelley: oh damn that was supposed to be +4
Shelley: success by 3?
GM: I think you missed the telegraph as a penalty. Yah, you hit, roll damage.
Shelley: Axe [2d6+2] => [1,4,2] = (7) cut
Shelley: boo 1s

 5) YOUR TURN NOW:: [25] Winged Demons

Marik: 1) Is Beltarne's turning still up?
Marik: 2) That was a really *long* half-move.
Beltarne: ((yup))
GM: Move 12 flying, 1/2 is 6 yards.
Beltarne: (( I think you're out of range though, what with me being down by wolfgang.))
Marik: I can't actually tell where Beltarne is. But I thought I was within 13 hexes of him.
Shelley: You *were*
GM: ... pythagorean? You're 4.5 yards UP.
Marik: Oh well. I get clawed.
Shelley: Not dodging?
Marik: I AoAd.
Shelley: Oops
Marik: Frankly, when we start needing exponents to figure out the game, I stop caring.
Winged Demon: heh. [1d6+1] => [6,1] = (7) damage, crushing, fear me! 
Marik: I take 6. Major wound: HT: [3d6.skill(14,+1)] => [3,4,1] = 8 vs (15) or less Success! by 7 
Winged Demon: Lesser Demon 7 all-out attacks, determined grapple on Marik [3d6.skill(15,4-4)] => [5,3,4] = 12 vs (15) or less Success! by 3 DA-4/-2
Marik: I'm grappled.
Marik: Tip: Bow still works.
GM: So weird. Also, not major wound: Marik has 13 HP.
Marik: Marik has 12 HP.
GM: still not more than half.
Marik: His ST being 12.
Marik: At least, on my character sheet.
GM: old copy, likely, on my part.
Marik: Major wounds don't bother me much anyway.
Marik: Marik doesn't actually stop going until he's dead.
Winged Demon: Demon 8 bobs and dodges, moving forward.
 6) YOUR TURN NOW:: [25] Beltarne 
(on deck: [24] Wolfgang) 
Beltarne: Which way did the demon jump?
GM: Toward the center of the room, violent sounds are coming from that direction.
** Beltarne runs after her. **
 7) YOUR TURN NOW:: [24] Wolfgang 
(on deck: [24] Shelley) 
GM: Wolfgang needs to roll aerobatics - the wall is in his wing clearance.
Wolfgang: Aerobatics (12) [3d6.skill(12,0)] => [1,6,3] = 10 vs (12) or less Success! by 2 
Wolfgang: stupid walls!
Wolfgang: ###
GM: Wah.
GM: Okay, you just move. Great.
 8) YOUR TURN NOW:: [24] Shelley 
(on deck: [24] Snake Demons) 
Shelley: Stupid jerkass flying demons.
Wolfgang: ((stupid fast jumpy demons))
** Shelley draws a vial of Holy Water and eyes the two demons above her. "Get away from him you little misbegotten wretches!" **
Marik: ((Need to be kicked from MapTools, I lost connection.))
Shelley: (( really wish i had fast-draw potion ))
Shelley: ***
Marik: "Oh no. By all means, stay. Right. Here."
 9) YOUR TURN NOW:: [24] Snake Demons 
(on deck: [24] Vine Automata) 
** Shelley waves bye bye to Alpha. **
Snake Demon: Peshkali 2 has 1 arm heal and another grow, increasing her arm count to 7. She grips 3 of her swords in two-handed grips (non-defensive), stabs Alpha once with the reverse grip sword [3d6.skill(9)] => [4,3,3] = 10 vs (9) or less Failure! by 1 (wildswing)
then slighters forward and makes 2 telegraphed attacks on Thasos' eyes [3d6.skill(18,4-7)] => [1,6,6] = 13 vs (15) or less Success! by 2 and [3d6.skill(18,4-7)] => [3,3,6] = 12 vs (15) or less Success! by 3 and 1 to his heart [3d6.skill(18,4-3)] => [3,6,4] = 13 vs (19) or less Success! by 6 
and feints defensively at Wolfgang [3d6.skill(18)] => [3,1,3] = 7 vs (18) or less Success! by 11 and Beltarne [3d6.skill(18)] => [2,5,4] = 11 vs (18) or less Success! by 7 
Shelley: wait 7 again?
Snake Demon: Damage is [2d6] => [2,2] = (4) and [2d6] => [1,4] = (5) vs DR0 x4 to Thasos' eyes, [2d6] => [1,1] = (2) vs DR4 to his vitals (x3 damage)

GM: Should be 6: 2 feints, 3 stabs Thasos, 1 Alpha.
Skeleton: lives, by some miracle
Shelley: No, you said grows a total of 7
Shelley: " increasing her arm count to 7. "
Wolfgang: hmm, can she feint me and move out of range?
Thasos: ((yay i'm defenseless))
Beltarne: Axe/Mace (18) [3d6.skill(18,0)] => [4,1,5] = 10 vs (18) or less Success! by 8 Includes: +1 from 'Pickaxe Penchant', +3 from 'Extra Pickaxe Penchant'
GM: She's still well within her move and attack range. She's within her steb and attack range.
GM: err, step.
GM: Thasos takes 16 and 20 damage. Is blinded.
Shelley: Clarification - she does have 7 arms now?
GM: needs to make 2 rolls against Death (at +4)
Wolfgang: I mean she feints then moves out of range of me, doesn't that break the feint?
GM: Yes, she has 7 arms.
GM: She's not out of range of you - she is within her Move and Attack range, which is all that is required for a feint.
Wolfgang: ah
Marik: (I'm going to just go ahead and assume that I'm not allowed to make a bow for a defensive feint against someone 100 yards away.)
Thasos: ((the berserk minotaur now wild swings every round? YAY!))
Marik: (Er, use a bow.)
Marik: Assuming you're still alive, Thasos.
GM: ... I'd strongly consider it, Marik.
Marik: (Though actually, winging an arrow at someone with the express purpose of 'throwing off his aim' instead of hitting him makes some sense.)
GM: Thasos - roll against being dead, in addition to being blinded.
Thasos: HT (13) [3d6.skill(13,0)] => [3,5,6] = 14 vs (13) or less Failure! by 1 
Shelley: :(
Shelley: Oh hey, off by one
Shelley: You're not dead
** Thasos slumps to the ground, having found final peace. **
Marik: That's just a mortal wound.
GM: He gets +4 while he's berserking, he's not even mortally wounded yet.
Marik: Actually, that was a success.
Shelley: (( mortally wounded and comatastic ))
Wolfgang: ((no +4?))
Marik: He gets +4 when berserk.
Thasos: oh forgot the +4
Shelley: even better :D
Marik: And he gets to make another roll, also at +4.
** Thasos shrugs off death. **
Thasos: HT (13) [3d6.skill(13,4)] => [2,2,3] = 7 vs (17) or less Success! by 10 
GM: Thank you.
Marik: That'll do, donkey.
** Thasos gives death a wedgie. **
Snake Demon: Peshkali 1 makes a short jump, landing near Ghazeb and Marik.
 10) YOUR TURN NOW:: [24] Vine Automata 
(on deck: [29] Ghazeb) 
Vinemen: Moves.
 1) YOUR TURN NOW:: [29] Ghazeb 
(on deck: [28] Thasos) 
** Ghazeb moves up to sanke demon #2. **
Ghazeb: No wild swing...I Ghazeb needs to parry!
Ghazeb: ###
 2) YOUR TURN NOW:: [28] Thasos 
(on deck: [28] Marik) 
Thasos: ((step, aoa determined, entangling attack))
GM: Skill is capped at 9.
Thasos: er why?
Marik: You're blind.
Marik: Wild swings
Thasos: oh nvm on the entangle then
** Thasos flails wildly around him. **
GM: Why, you have enough skill to do it.
Thasos: but capped at 9... i'm not even sure WHAT i'm doing
GM: Roll some dice.
Marik: ((Actually, he's just at -10 to skill.))
GM: Oh, oops. Go for whatever you want to do!
Thasos: oh okay good :)
Marik: ((He can't target specific locations, and since he's suddenly lost his sight, he's at -10. If he gets accustomed to blindness, it drops to -6. Did you buy Blind-Fighting, by any chance?))
Beltarne: ((Don't happen to have Blindfighting, do you?))
Thasos: no
GM: Yes, he did, skill 10.
Thasos: i did?
GM: Well, I did for you 'cause it's useful.
Thasos: so i did
Marik: I'd say that at least justifies 'used to being blind'.
Thasos: so it's -6?
Marik: For -6 instead of -10.
GM: Successful skill roll, you're at no penalty!
Marik: And you can roll blind-fighting immediately before the attack to remove the penalty entirely.
Thasos: er... can i roll then adjust other mods, or do i have to take what i get?
Wolfgang: first blind fighting no mods
Thasos: Blind Fighting (10) [3d6.skill(10,0)] => [5,5,1] = 11 vs (10) or less Failure! by 1 Includes: +2 from 'Chi Talent'
Thasos: okay, -6 it is
GM: Nope, declare the attack you plan to make, then roll Blindfight, then roll the attack.
Thasos: and i can't target body parts... but I can entangle right?
Marik: You can entangle the torso, and -4 to all her attacks would probably be useful.
Marik: (-6 makes sense to me; if you've spent enough time fighting blind to put a point in the skill, you're accustomed to using combat skills without eyesight. I'm not sure if that's RAW.)
GM: I'm good with it.
Thasos: alrighty, -6 for blind, +4 for determined, and -2 for DA
GM: 'kay.
Thasos: ALL-OUT ATTACK: Determined (+4 to hit melee; +1 ranged); move up to 1/2 (forward only); no defend {B365}, Meteor Hammer [3d6.skill(18,4-8)] => [3,4,2] = 9 vs (14) or less Success! by 5 , DECEPTIVE: -2 to attack per -1 target's defense

Shelley: I'm back!
Skeleton: Another Committed attack from behind!
GM: well, run-around this time.
Skeleton: He wasn't in front?
GM: Flank to rear is run-around, isn't it? I don't care much.
Skeleton: Says "front"
** Skeleton shrugs **
GM: okay!
GM: Suits me.
Wolfgang: yes, still runaround I think
Skeleton: Same deal as last time, to the arm -2, Telegraphed +4, whether it is or not.
GM: no defense for the peshkali!

Skeleton: No defense either way!
Skeleton: EAT THAT.
Skeleton: Critical Hit [3d6.crit_hit()] => [5,3,4] = 12 The blow inflicts normal damage, AND victim drops anything they hold--even if no damage penetrates DR. [B556]
Skeleton: ...
Skeleton: sold.
Ghazeb: SWEET!
Skeleton: Axe [2d6+2] => [2,6,2] = (10) cut
GM: no critical hit for telegraphed attack, I'm afraid.
Ghazeb: 4 swords clatter to the ground
GM: Nope.
Ghazeb: Oh noes!

Skeleton: Aw well.
GM: =/
Skeleton: 10 cut anyways. Not taht I think she cares.

Shelley: I can't Wait to cast a spell, can i? *franticly continues flipping through rulebooks
GM: Nope.
GM: Sadly.
Shelley: yeah, so I see. -7 or so is just not good enough for Control Zombie. Move up, All Out Defense, Dodge on the vine zombie of doom.

Shelley: Me :D
Snake Demon: Damage is [2d6] => [3,3] = (6) and [2d6] => [5,1] = (6) and [2d6] => [5,4] = (9) and [2d6] => [4,5] = (9) and [2d6] => [4,3] = (7) and [2d6] => [6,6] = (12) and [2d6] => [5,2] = (7) to Shelley
Marik: Oh.
Shelley: She can't reach you :D
Marik: Uh.
Marik: Nice knowing you.
Marik: Wait, 2d6?
Marik: Oh, thrust damage.
Shelley: To the vitals!
GM: [6+6+9+9+7+12+7-12] => 44
Marik: What's Shelley's DR?
Shelley: DR 2 :D
GM: uhm. 132 damage in total?
Shelley: Also someone who expects to not be in front :D
Shelley: Or stabbed from behind as the case may be
Ghazeb: shouldnt that be -14 then for 7 attacks?
Marik: [(44-(2*7))*3] => 90
Ghazeb: not like it matters....
Shelley: 10 HP :D
Shelley: So -8x HP
Marik: Wow.
GM: Righ, subtract 6 from that. It's only 126.
Shelley: I'm not actually GIBBED
Beltarne: ((Splorch))
Shelley: 6?
GM: yes, yes you are.
Shelley: anyways, I'm splorched :D
GM: VITALS.
Shelley: ginsumatic
Shelley: vitals doesn't reduce DR
Ghazeb: Not even a hearing roll to get a really crappy defense?
Shelley: and that's 7 hits, so fi it's halved, its' at least "reduce by 7" :D
Shelley: not that it matters :D
GM: yes, but it increases the multiplier for impaling to x3 from x2. So 42 x3 damage is 126.
Shelley: Not 42.
Marik: Yes, but when you account for the DR removing 14 of the 44...
Shelley: 7 hits are reduced by 2 each
Marik: It's 30*3, or 90.
Shelley: not one big hit of 42 damage reduced by 2, is what we're saying.
GM: Since every hit was more than 2, I added each hit together and subtracted 12, then 2 more because Jeff pointed out that I forgot the DR for each hit.
Shelley: Actually, I prefer 126, cuz then I go in a shower of blood and exploded pieces.
GM: Err, for the 7th hit.
Shelley: Oh, didn't realize you'd already done dr for most of them. We though you'd missed dor on all
Marik: Oh, right, he already did DR to get that 44. Ow.
Shelley: Awesome \m/
Beltarne: ((Shoves all 7 blades into shelley's chest cavity then pulls them outwards))
Narrator: The pseshkali slides forward, 3 of the swords slamming through Shelley's body in a spray of blood. Then it carves them out, dismembering the body in fountains of blood.
Marik: "..."
Snake Demon: Peshkali 2 jumps overhead, back-flipping to land near the altar.

Wolfgang: Hatchet [3d6-1] => [5,1,5,-1] = (10) cut
GM: is head the skull or face?
Shelley: Face usually, what penalty did he take?
Wolfgang: face I think, since skull is more -
Shelley: or depends on which way she's facing? :D
GM: looks like -4, dunno what that is.
Wolfgang: I took -5+1
Beltarne: Can you vary hit location with SA?
Wolfgang: one less due to flying
GM: Okay, face it is! Sure you can!
Marik: Yes, it's not a Combination Attack.
Wolfgang: at least she's not wearing a helmet!
Shelley: (it's -5 from behind if you use the advanced rules from Martial Arts)
Wolfgang: ((skull?))
Snake Demon: Shudders but keeps trying to escape Thasos.

Wolfgang: still going ahead!
Wolfgang: wait for the people!
GM: shoot, sorry!
Wolfgang: ((damm waits mess it all up))
GM: It's your fault!
Thasos: okay, going to yank her in and gore - no penalty since i've already got her entangled right?
Marik: I think you're better off closing in.
Wolfgang: step in and gore
Marik: There's an opposed check if you want to yank her.
GM: uhm, she resists with her ST.
Wolfgang: yank would be hard
Thasos: i see, step and gore then...
Thasos: and i'm going to mighty blow and power blow it
GM: you're at +2 on your blindfighting roll for knowing roughly were it is.

Marik: I don't suppose I can claim 'no fast-load penalty' for that crit?
GM: Certainly can.
** Thasos hits something with his head and doesn't realize it isn't her face. **
Marik: AoA (Double); Feint, then fire at Peshkali 1, aiming for the eyes. Feint: [3d6.skill(20,-3-1)] => [6,6,2] = 14 vs (16) or less Success! by 2

Snake Demon: Resist feint [3d6.skill(18,-2)] => [6,3,6] = 15 vs (16) or less Success! by 1

Marik: and Arrow 2:</B> [3d6.skill(20,-3-9-1+3)] => [3,2,3] = 8 vs (10) or less Success! by 2 (with fast-load penalty)
Marik: That's at separate eyes, naturally.
Snake Demon: right.
Snake Demon: no meaningful dodge, either. Damages?
Marik: Arrow 1: [1d6+3] => [4,3] = (7) imp
Marik: Arrow 2: [1d6+3] => [6,3] = (9) imp
Snake Demon: Oooh, I'm so cool, I have Nictating Membrane 4... so I'm just blinded in both eyes.
Marik: I'll accept that.
Narrator: Shelley's fountaining blood obscures Marik's arrows from the peshkali until the points drive through its pupils.
