Ok, picked my choices. I'll be moving slow and hitting the boss. I'll start on K4, with my objective being to make it to either I3 or K3.

Yeah I'm just doing a bunch of attacks and being flexible to move cause I don't know what the monsters are doing. Whatever the drakes are doing this round is gonna be pretty important. (PS I can and will pop invisibility whenever I can cause I'm a scrawny rat girl and I ain't being no hero.)

Oh dear. My thinking was to charge Ash into the Elder drake. Do some damage this turn and set up for a big damaging turn next turn. However those other drakes look scary! Also it'll be awkward if the Drake flies off again next turn to be able to get over there quickly.

This doesn't seem that bad. Splinter can attack 4 twice then go invisible, Ash can beat up the elite render, and then Lina finishes it off. Probably knock off 1/5 of the boss' HP, and you can survive 5 rounds, right? ..right?

Might be a good idea to take out that elite rending drake now; Splinter could disarm it, and Ash could use Boots of Speed to act before it?

Gonna hit the gently caress out of the drake, disarm it and then 80% chance I turn invisible because I’m made out of fur and hope. And it’s not strong fur.

Just to confirm, the Rending Drake still moves even when Disarmed because it still tries to find a target, right?

Orders submitted. I'm hitting as hard as I can without some set-up, dumping losses, getting up next to the scaly bastard and going invis. Sorry guys, I am not meant to tangle with giant flame lizards. I'm gonna do as much nova damage as I can while not getting hit before I even have to deal with it as a concept. To quote the end of my orders to TIG, "byeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!"

But disarm stops it spawning zephyrs, right? My group got the whole rule on zephyrs wrong and we thought we could attack them.

Also I know we changed this last time, but different kinds of red is legible to me and since it's arbitrary, maybe change it? I doubt I'm the only color-blind player just by stats. He's even fixing this stuff in Frosthaven. (I'm not counting being nice to colorblind people as a spoiler, come the hell on.)

Well poo poo. I was hoping it'd stop him spawning but as phrased on the card it's "Move then spawn" so that sounds like a bottom action. I don't know how that actually works out. My group has been using the app so long I've kind of forgotten some of the rules as written. Crap. Well at least I hopefully hurt the big lizard good and next turn I can mind-control an elite drake into it.

Xiahou Dun posted:Also I know we changed this last time, but different kinds of red is legible to me and since it's arbitrary, maybe change it? I have removed all kind of reds in the spreadsheet, and in theory all the colors should be colorblind friendly (several types). If it's on TTS, there's only 1 kind of red border for monsters, and I can't really alter that without redoing all the art for the module...same with the Helper  Let me know if you have troubles telling 2 colors aside in the sheet, though, and I'll try to fix that!

Master Splinter the Vermling Mindthief (Xiahou Dun) posted:- Master Splinter uses Empathetic Assault (top)! Attacks Elder Drake (BOSS) for 5 (4base, +1mod) damage! Gains 2XP. LOSS card!  By the way, Disarm only removes the "Attack" (like "Attack X, STUN") part of a card, not the rest of the card. It would prevent the Drake from using its Special 1; but if the Special 2 was "Attack 2, then Summon Zephyrs", it would not block the Summoning, just the Attack portion of it. 17. Elder Drake (BOSS) posted:- Elder Drake (BOSS) focuses Ash! Summons Zephyr 1 in I2. Sumons Zephyr 2 K2. Flies to Massive Boulder (a)! *19.

Now after realizing that Ash was not going to be there to tank the two Elites, a player would have probably popped their Invisibility Cloak. I have decided not to go that route for 2 reasons: 1, nothing in Ash/the monsters' movements and focus was obscured from the players at the start of the Round (unless I have made some terrible mistake); and our Spellweaver would have been mulched instead, so there would have been no real "party" gain.

Ah, reading through the turn again now I see what happened... and ouch, this is bad. My plan is still the same, I think, setting up my buff while hitting the Boss. Also, does the Spellweaver seriously only have one attack on the bottom? Ouch.

Uh thanks for being so good about colorblindness. Otherwise... ow. I’ll probably go slow to get what I can out of the cloak and then otherwise keep just hitting the Big Daddy. (It doesn’t look like a birthday party exactly, but he’s already down to half health.) (And I did the cards for just numbers ; disarm was at most a hopeful help.)

This'll be over in so few turns that ironically I'll be tanking with the wrong half of the pair. Only issue I can see is if the Drake leaves their perch before we can unload on it.

E: Bear in mind (pun intended) that we have a  and a Mindthief, so we are doing pretty great on the single target damage; and the Spellweaver is also going to be able to burn through her cards safely enough, and reach the Boss from almost anywhere by doing so. Out of the classes available to us - to avoid spoiled classes discussion - only a double critted or quadrupled Scoundrel hit could probably outshine a Bear or MT (especially with Splinter's stacked deck) and the latters are generally more consistent.E: also I forgot to add STRENGTHENED to Ash, fixed!

Nope. Can't do it. Gonna just do what a psychic rat lady do best and hope to set it up next turn. Would've been great to work with the strengthen but I just can't like geometrically. Going quick, doing what I can and probably tanking more than I'd like. Don't kill Rending Drake 4 because of reasons. My loving kingdom for some boots to juice for extra movement.
