Cool. I'll use Herp's for now, and Penguinator's after promotion :3 Thanks guys!
Edit: Roland can hit H-10 this turn, and stop at H-11 next before canto. Anyone want him to pick up anything? They are stores, yeah?

If not, Visit!

Bah, of course they'd play it in the exact way that keeps us from going for anything worthwhile. Ah well, we'll have to let them go this time.

Western Front:

Dunrock moves to WF1, trades Lloyd for his vulnerary and uses it.

Lloyd trades for his vulnerary back.

Nina trades Lloyd for a vulnerary and uses its last use.

Callum moves to WF3 and uses a vulnerary.

Imeena moves to WE3.

Northern/Center Front:

Madeline moves to CD13 and heals Wotan.

Hugo moves to CC14 and shoves Wotan.

Adele moves to CD14 and shoves Wotan.

Oren moves to NO13 and shoves Paris.

Wotan moves to CJ13 and attacks Soldier7. 87% chance to kill.

If Wotan misses, Paris moves to CJ12 and attacks Soldier7. 87% chance to kill.

Falcon moves to NL15.

Having Roland do some shopping his a good idea. I don't remember what's for sale in the shops, but at the very least we might want to stock up on vulneraries or something, depending on whether we still want to take the East before going South to end the map.

Honestly, I think we should just start going south. At this point I'm just waiting for the map to end.

Fair enough. We'll need to spend a bit of time waiting for everyone to make it back to the center, but after that we can leave a small rearguard to hold off attacks from the east and take the South without too much trouble. That being the case, I don't think we need Roland to buy anything, unless those shops have things that the other places in Eben don't.

Might as well check, not like it's out of the way.

I'd personally prefer to take the East. I know, I know, long map and all, but if there's more gold over there, we could really use it. Plus, the danger factor's gone down enough that I believe we could take it without losses.

Finally, it will influence maps later down the line, and I kind of like the path elevation. Might mean we can eat a bad end down the line and still keep going.

Sure let's go east. If possible.

I'll vote to go east too, we need to scrounge up as much supplies as we can get our hands on, and maybe squeeze a little more EXP for our lower level PCs out of the deal while at it.

Which way is Gunther exiting the map anyway, and is Domni coming with him? If Domni exits the map, will Neer follow suit?

Sairyu said somewhere that Domni has much bigger plans, and powerful as he is, he'd be in pretty serious trouble if he stayed back by himself after the Lions left.

Neer on the other hand seems to just be another Redline thug. I suspect he'll stay and fight it out with us.

Yeah. It's just the kind of thing you'd do.

Alright, we need the West group to tighten the line, and send reinforcements stat!

EDIT: Also, @Sairyu, the stabbity-stabbing continues.

Good, then we'll get us more EXP out of his armoured hide.

I'm not sure what you mean right the moment, but this is a good time to wrack up support points, and Nina and Paris are planning on a B, I think. In fact, since we have unlimited lower-level supports, we ought to be cranking out as many Cs as we can get. We need all the bonuses we can find against Sairyu Hard.

For a man with a sword in each leg, no hands, and no eyesight, he was surprisingly unwilling to give answers.

This will either provoke a response or kill him from blood loss.

Yeah, Adele is right on the brink of hitting level 3, and we have Imeena at level 8, I believe.

I think he's just going to scream incoherently and then pass out from bloodloss/pain.



Edit: I'm not really sure. I've never tortured anyone before, so I couldn't say with 100% certainty.

I'd read somewhere that victims would generally give any answer just to make the pain stop. Of course, such answers tend to be unreliable.

Getting information out of Edgar was always the secondary concern anyway; the main point was always karma coming back to bite him in the ass, and Falcon using his lowly status as a 'mere sellsword' to take on the sins so that Linia, or anyone else for that matter, didn't have to.

I was actually trying to use this as an opportunity for Falcon to clarify his actual relationship with this 'Bloodwind' character, anyway. >_>

Linia blinded him, I don't think Falcon can take on her sin... Though he isn't doing much better by torturing someone who is delerious from severe prain, experiencing a complete mental break down and wasn't completely stable to start with.

It's Sairyu's RNG goddess.. I promised to never make a Sairyu joke again...

So now I will change the topic to our two Myrmidons... It seems that they are going to turn into quite similar with perhaps Hugo being more dodgerific than Falcon thanks to that whopping 11 speed at level 3...

Technically the miss % isn't. Roland's had more attacks than Paris, and has missed the same number of times.
They've just missed the same number of times, which is still kinda weird (Roland is missing more often than he theoretically should be, but it's not off by a lot).

So that's how.

@Penguinator
Roland attacks a lot more than Paris. He also has a tendancy to be shooting at speedier targets (mercenaries, swordsmen, Edgar on a 'house' tile).

@Rising Phoenix
Well, both of their growths are incredibly similar. If they were both using average-stats, they could pretty much be used interchangeably.

Falcon's had more luck with his STR growth though, so he might turn out to be the better Swordmaster.

If Hugo's growths continue the way they have, he might actually turn out the better choice for an Assassin; his low STR may not let him hurt much, but with Silencer he'll be a viable threat to the enemy.

A Pair of Myrms with support is actually a really scary thing. If they both end up dodge-tanks, we could probably block a choke with 'em in a later map and rotate whenever one got hurt.

Hm... his average stats sans promotion gains would even put him under the 20 Str cap...

Not that I'm a big fan of myrms going assassin, but, hey, go with what works.

Also, @ Sairyu, might be a good idea to keep the rules in the OOC thread, just in case.

Hugo going assassin doesn't strike me as a bad plan.
Two assassins in the same party, though. Things would either be awesome for both or crappy for one.

The problem with that is that wind (funnily enough) doesn't boost avoid, so the support caps out at +7% dodge at A. Also the support gain between wind and dark is 2pts/turn.



Edit: keep in mind that there's going to be another thief (Reyn) joining sometime in the future.

Edit: Also, custom promotions. I'm sure we can work something out when it comes time for promotions to happen.

Maaaaaatheeeeeew! Why you so bad! (To be fair, he was pretty awesome my first time through. Then my game decided to erase itself for seemingly no reason, during the Nino/Jaffar map. The second time? Let's just say Jaffar sees a lot more use. I considered switching to Legault, but Matthew had more Defense, or something like that)

I'm thinking of going Summoner. But a Dark/Light (probably no staves) Druid would be interesting.

I know right? I would have thought Wind would boost Avoid, but nope. That's Ok, still gives decent bonuses.

Kinda jealous of Falcon getting such a high crit ceiling. Dude's looking at what, 30% Crit before applying support? (Assuming S rank, Swordmaster)
Roland's cap is 20, and he's the closest behind Falcon.

And Falcon just got hisself a Killing Edge.

lollerskates.


@Penguinator
I was actually thinking more Sothe/Volk from Radiant Dawn. They've both got good stats (Although Volk's are better) but there's never a reason to use both on the same map (Especially since you get Volk so friggin' late)
