I'm going to eat the light element to attack a skeleton and possibly reposition. Can anyone else drop some CC on the skellies? E: best CC is death and I think skelly 7 is dead next turn Omobono fucked around with this message at 11:19 on Aug 12, 2020 |

The Beast Tyrant and Bear will be going fast, and attempting to take out the skellington by the bear in a single glorious blow. If you can go faster we might down Two skellingtons.

My initial thought for Mindthief was to dump 3 attacks into living corpse 2 but it seems likely that 1 attack plus the hit from the warrior spirit would do it. Frigid Apparition and Perverse Edge, 29 The idea is to hopefully go after Pikachu so that the spirit acts before us then finishing off corpse 2 with the top of Frigid Apparition. Then we shoot and stun corpse 3 to maybe keep the spirit alive.

I like this plan - I was considering Brain Leech bot, but that leaves Splinter vulnerable to the other elite moving and hitting hard.

Do we need ice? I can make ice. E: shouldn't the Spellweaver get 2 xp from the summon? Omobono fucked around with this message at 11:23 on Aug 13, 2020 |

Making ice would be good, it would ensure that only the non elite living corpse can move/attack, potentially keeping my summon up one more turn. My orders are for the bear to Bear If spellweaver can kill the skellington on her turn, the bear will move south towards the second skeleton and i'll forgo the top of my round to increase bears damage and maul faces.

if Lina can make ice, Splinter can stun Corpse 3 and Corpse 4 should fall to some combination of the summon, Lina, and ratstab.

the hammer summon is closest to Corpse 4, right? so that's the one it'll choose to attack?

Superterranean posted:the hammer summon is closest to Corpse 4, right? so that's the one it'll choose to attack? That is correct. E: if you mean "the corpse will attack the spirit". If you meant "will the spirit attack Corpse 4", then no, it'll focus Corpse 2 cause it's acting before 4 in initiative and they are otherwise equidistant.

Old Dun Cow posted:Shouldn't it focus corpse 2 because they're all equidistant and elites have the lower initiative? Oh wow, I read it the other way around I thought the question was "will Corpse 4 target the Warrior Spirit" instead of the opposite. The Warrior Spirit will Focus Elite Corpse 2.

The Warrior Spirit will Focus Elite Corpse 2. OK cool, I was worried that I might have some explaining to do to my group if I was wrong about that. If corpse 2 is alive when Splinter goes, then I think the original plan of Frigid Apparition top on 2 (consume ice to stun just in case) then Perverse Edge bottom on 3 still applies. If 2 is dead, then I think it makes sense to use Perverse Edge as a move 2 and hit corpse 3 with Frigid Apparition. I don't see a way to prevent the spirit from eating a hit from the standard corpse but it might survive.

I'd rather have ice available in the next round though, from Splinter's generation. I don't think the summon can down the living corpse though, how much atk does it have? (Is there an easy way to display the summons' attack stats somewhere turn by turn? They're kinda relevant while they last)

Omobono posted:I'd rather have ice available in the next round though, from Splinter's generation. Oh OK, that makes sense. I wasn't sure if you were firing off the orbs. Perverse Edge will generate ice so as long as we use that to stun something, there will be ice for next round. I guess we could accept that the spirit will be sacrificed in the event that we whiff on corpse 2 because Splinter can still stun it with Perverse Edge at disadvantage. Then you wouldn't need to use the mana potion? The odds are pretty decent that Splinter can kill 2 and stun 3 without having ice available.

Yup. Eat ice with the top, regenerate with the bottom. Both elite corpses will be stunned at least. E: too early for orbs and not enough targets in range. I'll use Mana bolt top eating light, orbs bottom to move

I was gambling on the warrior spirit living but I knew it was a gamble. However it took out one enemy unit so thats worth it for a cheap summon that doesn't even cost a card.

AtomikKrab posted:I was gambling on the warrior spirit living but I knew it was a gamble. Yeah, Summons are usually bad cause they die and then you are out a card, or they use an item slot that could be otherwise better spent. Also most summons suck rear end at moving around and are usually only useful in a single room. But the combination of BT + Weapon slot is a good one, the only thing we are losing is a one time cost opportunity to be 25g more rich. Dealing 5 damage then absorbing 4 is quite the value if you consider the fact that it's basically free.

Let's have Corpse 4 move next to Corpse 3, to make a double stun possible. It does mean Ash has some wandering around to do, but I'm OK with that. Omobono/Lina were you planning on going fast-ish so the stun hits this turn, or late-ish so they act this coming turn but are stunned the next?

# ? Aug 14, 2020 15:35 |

Genesis kid here. The answer is to always go fast. E: also I don't think I can go slower than the zombies honestly E2: if Pikachu wants the normal zombie at 3 hexes from Ash it's fine by me. Omobono fucked around with this message at 15:52 on Aug 14, 2020 |

If the spellweaver is good with the zombie at 3 for stunning (it might be dead before that) it works out a lot better for efficient mauling.

Since the room is basically cleared, should Splinter crack the door?

Crack it the start of next turn since the bear will hit the last living corpse then. Have splinter loot/slice up the elite this turn.
