bagrada: Aug 4, 2007; The Demogorgon is tired of your silly human bickering!

Slaan posted:

I can and will stun the elite Skelly near us. Just was hoping those spirits would move into range doing it

Splinter can then move to G3, bless herself, then double attack the elite. Might want to burn the invis cloak if the elite dies so we don't get hit by 6 skelly attacks, but again that's early for a brawl of a mission. If Boris moves away we'd be the target of the 3 spirits too, so definitely use the cloak if we've got all five gunning for us.

I'm terrible at these constant spawn missions on the steam early access game, I have to bring cragheart and a couple of unlockable class ringers to beat them now that I'm mid levels.

I hadn't planned on moving Boris away, though 3 attacks 3 will be rough. My plan is to Doom Living Spirit 2, then shoot something else (such as Living Spirit 5). The muddle means I probably won't do much damage, but the Doom will guarantee that the Spirit dies next round.

- Boris uses Race to the Grave (bot)! Targets Living Spirit 2. Doom: Place your character token on any one enemy - This enemy suffers 2 damage at the start of each of its turns - When this enemy dies or another Doom is played, discard this card.
- Boris uses Fresh Kill (top)! Attacks Living Bones 10 with DISADVANTAGE for 0 (4base, NULL/+0mod, SHIELD3) damage!

Off to a good start

11. Master Splinter the Vermling Mindthief (The Goonmind) posted:

- Master Splinter uses Empathetic Assault (bot)! Moves2 to G3. HEAL2, Self! Gains 1xBLESS.
Master Splinter is at 13 HP.
- Master Splinter uses Corrupting Embrace (top)! Attacks Living Bones 9(E) for 2 (1base, +1mod, +2bonus, SHIELD2) damage! Attacks Living Bones 9(E) for 4 (1base, +2'mod, +2bonus, SHIELD2, POISON) damage!
Living Bones 9(E) is at 2 HP and is POISONED and MUDDLED!
Master Splinter activates Cloak of INVISIBILITY. Gains INVISIBLE.

Since the condition was "activate Cloak if the Elite dies" and since the Elite is at 2HP and POISONED, I'll go ahead and pull the emergency brake to prevent potential 21 damage over 6 attacks to Splinter

48. Living Spirits posted:

Living Spirit 2 suffers 2 Doom damage!
Living Spirit 2 is at 2 HP and is DOOMED!
- Living Spirit 2 focuses Boris! Flies2 to D1. Attacks Boris for 3 (3base, +0mod) damage.
Boris is at 8 HP.
- Living Spirit 5 focuses Boris! Attacks Boris for 3 (3base, x2mod) damage.
Boris is at 2 HP.
- Living Spirit 6 focuses Boris! Flies2 to F1. Attacks Boris for 2 (3base, -1mod) damage.
Boris is at 0 HP.

Boris is very lucky today He will have to lose 1 card to prevent lethal damage - I imagine to block the 6 damage attack.
Boris is at 6 HP.

I'll lose Solid Blow to prevent the damage.

Based on the cards I have left, I think the best thing to do is to spend this turn healing and setting up my advantage ability, while my Doom finishes off the Spirit. Then starting next round I should be able to start putting some real damage into these skeletons.

Yeah, I think Overload and Takeover is the play here, we're getting overwhelmed. Explode either a spirit or a skelly, control the elite skeleton next to Splinter.

# ? Mar 11, 2021 15:10

bagrada: Aug 4, 2007; The Demogorgon is tired of your silly human bickering!

If we hostile takeover someone, that only changes who it attacks, right? I've only used the ability once, in the steam game, and the other enemies still ignored it to hit my more distant characters. If it could tank a round for us that would be a no brainer and probably overpowered even for a loss.

I'm leaning towards saving the cranium overload for a turn when we can blow up a regular skeleton surrounded by enemies to maximize our chances of getting through someone's shields. Right now we'd only get 2 extra attacks (spirit 6 would get 3 but one of those is dying to doom anyway).

My vote is major stam pot back perverse edge and hostile takeover, queue up hostile takeover and dark frenzy. If the skeletons are attacking we can takeover an elite then do a melee attack 6 on one using the ice. If the skeletons are just going to shield up and heal we can do a couple ranged attacks and maybe retreat behind the traps with the other sides of the cards. I want to make sure we get more out of 2 burn cards than 1 dead normal.

# ? Mar 11, 2021 17:25

AtomikKrab: Jul 17, 2010; Keep on GOP rolling rolling rolling rolling.

Taking over will do a log jam since the skelly will sit in place and carve up its buddies, blowing up a spirit ensures that TWO die next round at a minimum. if the skeletons do nothing splinter can control the last spirit and have it beat on a skel.

That's where Rocky would have come in handy. Splinter can back up a step next turn so that only one skeleton can melee but at some point soon they'll start taking the long way around to the right. If we did have something to block off the paths, or if the room gets too full, they will walk into a trap to make a path, and then we'll be in trouble. Not that we aren't already, heh.

Perverse Edge is always good.

Another unfavorable enemy card pull. Since the skeletons may heal off our brain burst, should we explode spirit 5? We can take over skeleton 10 since he'll go last of the elites so only the normals will heal, plus one less attack on Master Splinter. Skeleton 6 would waste an attack on spirit 2, and 10 would then take its turn and heal back 2 damage. At least Lina is going after them so they won't heal her damage.

Taking over spirit 6 would be fun since it would attack almost everything but its only attack 2 and everything is shielded.

Assuming I don't die from a billion attacks, I'll be doing good damage to the spirits and any skellies that are low on HP to hopefully pick any of them off. Spirits got to die ASAP though. Their ranged is really hurting our ability to kite the skelly army.

I thought those were impassable obstacles? If not then we're taking four hits not counting our stun. Elite 2 moving onto the coin, elite 6 moving onto the left rubble, elite 10, and then regular 5 moving onto the right rubble. We may want to back up two steps but that will be getting us all bottled in.

Purple bordered tiles are difficult terrain - it takes a figure two normal movement points to enter a hex with difficult terrain unless they are Jumping or Flying.

Also remember that both Normal and Elite skellies have Target2/3 - which means they will pick a focus, then try to move the shortest Route from which they can attack their Focus + up to 1/2 other enemies (they will prioritize maximizing targets over moving the shortest distance, but they will always pick their primary Focus according to the normal rules and they will NOT step on traps to maximize the targets).

6 or 10, whichever we don't stun, is going to try take out the burning avatar along with poking two of us. Lina can step onto the rubble to protect it but were you going to cast the mystic ally this turn? If Splinter moves onto the rubble the elites will wrap around and hit a bunch of us.

If we move to F3 and Lina moves to E3, we'll take one hit and she'll take 2 with her retaliate up. She'd need to burn a card though if they draw +0 average or better.

Focus on killing 6, remember the skeletons will prioritize not hitting a trap if they can still path elsewise. With 10 stunned that means only two non elite skeletons will spring for splinter. I would suggest attacking with the beam and getting another minion up to add more firepower.

Remember that the non elite skeleton by the elites is on top of a difficult terrain piece.

Remember that the non elite skeleton by the elites is on top of a difficult terrain piece.

Good call, I missed that, that will slow down the others. So yeah stun 10, shoot 6 and 5 with shared nightmare is my vote.

Phelddagrif: Jan 28, 2009; Before I do anything, I think, well what hasn't been seen. Sometimes, that turns out to be something ghastly and not fit for society. And sometimes that inspiration becomes something that's really worthwhile.

If you'd prefer I can just take out #6 with Boris's shot, and you can attack a different target.

Omobono: Feb 19, 2013; That's it! No more hiding in tomato crates! It's time to show that idiota Germany how a real nation fights!

For pasta~! CHARGE!

That's probably the better option, yeah. Splinter can tag 4 and 5.

But holy cow this mission is pants, I kinda hope all skeletons die when we get the tenth one down.
