The Elite zombie from the previous room probably by this point face-tanks a trap (stun, right?)

dwarf74 posted:

Or we just win the scenario

Omobono posted:

You can move 4 to G3 (last room) and facetank/cardtank a trap, move4+jump on chest, then we win scenario with a swap even if you exhaust.

E: this turn the cultists aren't attacking, the skeletons aren't moving, and 3 out of 5 spirits are stunned.

Omobono posted:

Stun spirit 4 rather than 6, yeah? I don't think it matters either way.

Kobal2 posted:

It doesn't, the skellies don't move and the cultists don't attack. We've got this one in the bag. And I don't think it's really safe to wait another turn just for the chest : this turn the enemies are playing nice. They could be giant dicks next turn.

dwarf74 posted:

So we have another round if we want the chest. I don't think I can make a convincing argument that I really was using Jump colloquially rather than explicitly

Old Dun Cow posted:

At first I was thinking that it's crazy to go another round but the monsters couldn't have possibly pulled a better set of cards for us to do it.

If Splinter ends this turn in K3, Cultist 1 will not move but all the other enemies will bunch up in the corner and do nothing. If we swap Hail with the Cultist that stays put before all the possible Cultist cards, I don't believe that there is a card set that can result in her getting attacked.

E. Actually, I think Cultist 1 would move to D2, so maybe it doesn't quite work. We would likely have to swap with Splinter in that case, which would make A3 the better spot to end this round because Hail would be blocked by the altar.

E2. And Hail is in range of the 'Target all enemies in range' card for two of the spirits. There really isn't a safe way to do it because Splinter has to move before 21 to eliminate the possibility of being immobilized but then the swap has to occur before 33 to protect Hail from the Spirits. That opens up Hail to being attacked by Corpses after the swap occurs. So I guess I talked myself out of it.

Old Dun Cow posted:

Alright, well if the Vermlings are going to commit the ultimate act of hubris in this attempted cheese, then voting move to door tile and attack spirits 1, 3 and 6 with Cold Fire, consuming ice and activating Piercing Bow. Recover all discards with Major Stamina Potion

Since I think it's correctly mapped out, my vote for next round is Forked Beam, Engulfed in Flames; 20. Activate Engulfed in Flames bottom and attack anything (that might die) with Beams. Hoping that we can get 2 XP out of the round if a Bones makes it to the front lines. Pitch cards as needed to avoid exhaustion.

dwarf74 posted:

Shouldn't the two top cultists have moved in on me?

No big deal if not

That Italian Guy posted:

Yeah they should have, I've messed things up since I had revealed the room before...so I originally activated them when the door was still closed, then moved them back, then forgot to move them again

Will fix this asap.

Omobono posted:

Well, we lucked into an element, so we should use it.

I think Initiative 07, Mana bolt, Engulfed in flames is better than the previous plan with an element.
Cold fire + Engulfed is way too slow and all these assholes are shielded so Mana Bolt should be more effective than Forked Beam.

dwarf74 posted:

I mean don't get me wrong, it's unlikely to be extremely relevant.

Old Dun Cow posted:

Agree

Should still be good to go as long as Pikachu executes the swap before 33 and Splinter lunges for the chest after all the Corpses act.

dwarf74 posted:

e: This scenario seems like hell if you're trying to play legitimately.

dwarf74 posted:

I feel very bad how scripted your turns have been Kobal2, and hope the next scenario is more interesting for beartyrant now that the domineering mindthief will no longer be up in your business.

Old Dun Cow posted:

Hmm, it is relevant in one case: if the Corpses pull any +1 move card and we have swapped with Cultist 2. Corpse 6 can reach that tile and potentially immobilize Hail.

If we swap with Corpse 2, Cultist 2 can get an attack in if they act after the swap. Same with swapping to Cultist 1.

Kobal2 posted:

Don't worry about it, man, I'm more than happy to play second fiddle to the most coked-up rat thing ever .
Speaking of, we're agreed that you're moving hella fast so that I can swap Hail early as well ? She should be fine in the final room even without you tanking for her, Zombies can't move for poo poo and Cultists can't hit for poo poo. Worried about the Spirits though.

dwarf74 posted:

I'm going quite late so all the zombies can attack me and leave Hail alone. They have no cards left to act after my initiative. She's still got initiative 99 even if she arrives early, so only cultist 2 will focus on her with a chance of reaching her.

She needs to be swapped with cultist 1 super early (before 33, so you need that and disorienting roar) so the spirits can't touch her with their multi target nonsense.

Old Dun Cow posted:

I think Hail is at 8 from catching a crit in an earlier round.

Kobal2 posted:

I'm willing to roll them bones.

Kobal2 posted:

Correct, I forgot about that. OK, so IF the zombie draw a move+attack card and IF the cultists don't move & attack and IF the elite one draws a crit, she could technically potentially die.
I'm willing to roll them bones. In any event, I have to 'port her before the spirits can start blasting, so my own turn is more or less set in stone.

(EDIT : come to think of it, Hail suddenly exploding from the ONE unlikely result that would punish what we're doing to this poor scenario would be just about the perfect capstone to this whole cheesefuckery.)
