The Guild of Imperial Geographers has noted your objection and subsequently removed and replaced the offending pictogram with one more suited to the regions climate.  For future reference, the north-eastern most part of Rim, of which the Daalig Region is a member, has a flora and (natural) fauna not unlike that of your northern Scandinavia. Very mountainous with large forests of evergreens, mostly spruce and pine. The occasional lake and a long, winding river which has its origins in the Rim Wall and continues throughout most of the Empire.

I'm a little annoyed we split the loot with that guy we rescued from the Kobolds. Yeah he helped us kill them, but that was kind of fair pay-back for saving his life. I don't want to give away too much to these nerds. Go with plan firey-death-bomb if they refuse it. Cornuto fucked around with this message at 14:34 on Dec 21, 2016 |

When you get a spare moment you will arrange to have it shipped to the regional Imperial Monster Hunters Guild Entente offices over in Karg together with your field report of its abilities.

Right. I don't want our team to think we're the sort who lie, cheat and go back on deals when it's advantageous. Especially against people who, even if they've opposed us, have yet to do such a thing to us.

Outrail posted:I don't think we're being blood lusty by preparing for betrayal by known thieves. eh, I'm not a psychiatrist, and I don't want to derail the thread with pyscho-speak. I'm more or less generally referring to the thread's tendency to reach for the FooF or Cupcake for any given situation; no need to FooF Bandit-Meg, especially if we want to loot the bodies. Besides, if sociopathy is a pervasive pattern of disregard for, or violation of, the rights of others, then you can still be 'wide eyed naive' and a sociopath.

Plan Hbar but also Watch for both betrayal and opportunities for us to be the ones doing it They're criminals, lol if you think tales of the honourable ITEC will get spread through the underworld if we let them go They're going to want payback for us ruining their payday- if we let them go it won't be the last we see of them

CourValant posted:eh, I'm not a psychiatrist, and I don't want to derail the thread with pyscho-speak. Sorry, I mean psychopath. Either way FOOF is awesome and anyone not determined to use it as a first and last resort is a grade A party pooper. Also using FOOF makes our jobs easier. So we get less per job, but jobs are less risky (aside from the ever present danger of going out in the most metal way ever) so the expenses of each job go down, also jobs require less equipment, because every equipment list begins and ends with 'FOOF'. So if jobs are less risky, require less equipment, and can be completed faster it makes sense to use FOOF. Also, we get a rep as a group of insane nutbags that will obliterate you at the slightest excuse. The second we show up the option to surrender should start inching up the mental options list making our jobs even easier and safer.

We can just stand where we are and sling rocks/poo poo at the cart. The thing hunts via vibrations, make some vibrations and keep these guys pinned down.

I pointed out in IRC that we should let the gnome dilute the foof into much smaller bottle like split it down to 100 or 1000 tiny teardrop bottles that will work like granade instead of a fuel station explosion.

The Chase, part 4, “Ill Fated Warehouse”, The City of Braav Month 3, Week 3, Day Two, Late Afternoon  The Imperial Road stretches from Karg to Rim, and from thence to all the world. It follows the river as much as it is able, crossing it this way or that when needs must; when the surrounding lands are to inhospitable for trade. Side-roads branch from it like blood vessels, supplying the Holds and Castles of Noble Lords with the goods and services needed for their comfort. It is a good road, cobbled and true. But right now, right here, it is being torn asunder. A noise unlike any you have heard fills the forest to its brim. A perpetual, muffled explosion, coming ever closer, accompanied by a very localized earthquake. In these final, precious seconds you bargain with the slime-nappers, convincing Bandit-Meg to relent her preposterous position in favour of your heavy handed deal. She is forced to accept, lest you leave them to their fate with your superior and more importantly un-crashed transportation.  The stone cracks, the road shifts and bends. Parts of the wagon-train collapse. Most of your horses are paralyzed with fear, all save for the horse laden with FOOF. It looks about to bolt, but Tommy has laid his massive hand upon it and somehow, against all equestrian logic, it stays put. Out of the ground in a shower of earth, gravel and stone erupts... nothing. The noise continues, the world shakes. Everyone is deathly quiet, and all eyes are on the ground. Beneath you at this very moment swims the Ankheg impossibly. Circling, waiting. Biding its time. The hairs on the back of your neck stand on end, your heart races. You glance over to the bandits, see Maik'e grinning ear to ear. Slowly reaching for something by his belt.  --- 1: No one says a word. The Ankheg is nowhere to be seen, everywhere to be felt. Will you make the first move, or will you let Maik'e do his thing unopposed? A: Fight Smart. Try to cause a commotion somewhere away from you, to lure the Ankheg out. Use your sling to throw a rock, or something similar. If the Ankheg comes out, engage it with all due haste. Try to stay still if it dives back down, or run away if you cannot. B: Fight explosively. Give the word, let the FOOFhorse go. Wing it from there. C: Trust in Maik'e. Let him do his thing, re-evaluate from there. D: Do not trust in Maik'e. Whatever he is doing, he looks way to thrilled about it for it to be anything good. Alert Skvababt, have her shoot him. E: Something else? Write-in. --- [Primers, inventory and battle-stats may be found in this previous update post. --- Party thoughts are unavailable at this time. Asking questions will require the support of other voters and pass time accordingly.
