Tomn posted:As an aside, I kinda wonder how this vote is going to go if M wins, but G is the most popular option. G would be nulled out by default since it incorporates a forbidden ability, so do we end up firing an unassisted bronze arrow instead? Or do we default to what is according to an eyeball count the second-most popular option, Plan Ark? Which, I can't speak for anyone else, but as someone voting to snipe the general I would be REALLY strongly against doing that until we've at least thrown a few normal arrows the general's way. The mere thought of [???] being gone causes you to feel as if you may vomit. Being filled has no such feeling. [???] being gone is absolutely terrible and thr thought makes you quezy and weak in the knees, im facr you just missed the last shot you took.

I changed my vote from six pages ago. I'm sorry brave vote counters. I've been convinced that we were given special dispensation, that we can use our powers as we judge appropriate to defend this city and its people. I changed my vote to GO because I think we should fight in tandem with Eliahba for now, and that we are doing good work by sniping the greater fish.

GO I really want to use arrow time, but if that isn't allowed then I guess I would rather shoot 5 arrows at him. Not really sure how to vote that.

Grizzwold posted:Yeah, but they'll probably kill us if we get swarmed, which I think would have the opposite effect on anyone watching. Oh definitely, if we go under we're not getting up as a fleshy being. But right now we've got the strength of 110 ish men of a fit build. They would have better luck trying to win a tug of war with a bulldozer. Here's how I see it happening: Enkidel jumps down from the wall, screaming something about El. He runs forward under cover of two shields. *PUNCH* the first shield punch goes out and the unlucky fishman gets hit with the force of a speeding truck and goes flying backwards over his fellow's heads into the army. *SLAM* the return stroke catches a fishman in the neck, merely breaking it. *CRACK* a third and forth fishman are sent flying and dead backwards and get stuck in the spikes of a fairly intact dead crab. Speaking of crabs *CRA CRACK* a double shield bash shatters the body of a ten foot crab. Its legs still kick weakly but it is unable to move or fight anymore. A spear thrust to Enkidel's face is guided aside by a shield into a nearby lobstrosity and the spearfishman gets punted a few hundred meters for his troubles" I imagine if we start beating the poo poo out of them with shields the living ones will retreat. They are smart enough to use tools and they don't seem too keen to die so a ten foot tall avatar of death who can punch them into tomorrow among their ranks is going to cause panic.

I took the fact that we could vote G/M as evidence it was possible to accomplish G/M, along with having been given very specific information. I see that has been corrected. Vote Change G/O I am voting O because of the way I understand the percentage thing to work I don't see significant difference between O and P. And if I have that wrong (likely) I don't want to vote about this over and over again anyway.

Diogines posted:You have had some time since you left Kavodel to think and feel. It took me a moment to realize that this was Diog making a typo instead of his being frustrated and impatient with Enkidel. Probably. Weird, though. Diog, was it a typo earlier when you mentioned that it felt like something bad would happen if the meter filled? If not, I wonder what caused filling to feel like it would be such a catastrophe earlier? Opening up "scars" from our modifications, which have healed over time? Also, Diog, do we still feel like we're at 158/160? Ouroborus posted:I imagine if we start beating the poo poo out of them with shields the living ones will retreat. They are smart enough to use tools and they don't seem too keen to die so a ten foot tall avatar of death who can punch them into tomorrow among their ranks is going to cause panic. If that was all it takes to win a battle, Elihaba would be down there punching already.

Ouroborus posted:Possibly, or maybe that isn't how they do things in Tanaach? These guys are big on tradition... Tudiyah would charge their poo poo down but maybe Rimrush rolls differently normally. The fact that when he went to meet the storm he specifically said letting them come to the city could get people killed suggests that Tanaach usually just lets the fish men come to them and die on the walls. The fact that Rimush went charging over the horizon with most of his Mighty Men to meet the demon in the field suggests that, yes, the basic Tanaachan battle plan can also be summed up in one word that rhymes with "barge." It's just that they prefer to take kings with them when they do that - i.e., the people SPECIFICALLY powerful enough to wipe armies single-handedly anyways. Which we aren't. No kings, no dumb charges - that's when the walls get used. Edit: Or put it this way - so far, trying to make their way up the walls has bought nothing but death, but they're still pretty game to try what they can. Don't think we'll be much more impressive once the initial shock wears off.

Changing vote to GO I didn't think I would have to change my spitevote to let everyone die, because I thought it was obvious we were allowed to use our powers, given the wording of our powerup. However, goons have managed to surprise me yet again. Zepath is going to be overrun, Kavodel is probably gone, and we are probably the difference between Tanaach surviving or dying. But we can't use our powers. If M wins, and we survive, I am most definitely going to find a way to specifically mention this incident to Ish. "But I've followed your orders to the letter! I didn't use any powers whatsoever, even when empowered by the Melachim, while watching women and children be torn apart by fishmen in the middle of Tannach's fall! Surely that means my control has grown!"

Ouroborus posted:Possibly true but then why would he mention that fighting at the city was a bad idea? If that wasn't his usual plan it would never occur to him to say why he couldn't do it. Because the vision we saw was of something so big it caused the earth to shake. As the superhero Mayor of Tokyo, would you rather hold a wrestling match with Godzilla in downtown Tokyo or some uninhabited plains? Remember, too, that Tudiya's own modus operandi was to march just outside the city, well within sight of it, to challenge the bad guys. He wasn't rushing out into the far unknown, just getting a little breathing room to charge in. As an aside, something to remember: Ibleam keeps getting bought up as an example of where faith allowed the impossible, even the suicidal, to happen. And it's true Ibleam looked impossible and suicidal...but it WASN'T just that. Ibleam was also an act of high compassion and righteousness. It was fighting to defend those who had no other way to defend themselves, throwing away our lives for a chance at preserving theirs at a time when they could count on nobody and nothing else to save them from certain doom. It was, in short, almost unquestionably a morally good deed - such as is looked on with favor by El. What good deed do we serve by charging into the army? What cause of righteousness do we serve any better compared to staying on the walls? What compassion is being excited by our going Rambo? It may be badass, but badass is all it is - it is not likely to be looked upon with quite as much favor as saving the innocents of Ibleam did.
