You can�t actually use an item in the scenario you get it, even if you have an open slot for it. You have to equip it between scenarios. It�s a pretty silly rule and most people house rule it away without ever realizing it exists, but by RAW that�s how it works.

Yeah, anyone on the front lines and expecting to take regular hits should really get the iron helm. It's so good for the price, and like a little insurance policy.

On the other hand, there are only 2 Iron Helmets, so if you have more melee focused characters than that someone has to pick another head slot item.

Glad they didn't go for shield / retaliate this round.

If Splinter pulls a couple +1 modifiers, the team might actually be able to sync up a long rest after this round and be in good health for the last room.

If not, I should be able to play clean-up next turn while the Brute long rests. (Splinter may need to short rest if that guard is still around, just in case.)

Bullwinkle could open the next door and back up to get the enemies to approach the rest of us; I'll probably long rest the turn after next.

I still have an "irrational" thing to do before the scenario ends, but it should work out OK.

Looks like you guys are going for plan Long Rest+ :ese:

Ripley, if you let me know what you want to lose (and if Zulily Zoetrope lets me know their plan for step B) I can update 9A+9B together on tomorrow's update. After that, assuming the remaining Guard is dead, we can have a "setup" update where the party organizes, with the 2, 3 or whatever many Rounds you'll take before opening the next door/reveal an enemy resolved in the same update to keep up the pace.

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.

Bottom of Perverse Edge is a ranged attack, so Splinter should've attacked at disadvantage (doesn't really matter now since no damage was done).

Phelddagrif posted:

I like the fact that I've removed the +2 bonus because it's a ranged attack and then forgot to add the DIS. Which may be somehow relevant since both "-1" have now been drawn on the first attack and Master Splinter may have killed the Guard with a x2 or a Bless with a single hit. I'll have a look and see if it would have been relevant.

EDIT: ok, first card on the pile for Master Splinter was a +1, so the remaining Guard is at 2HP instead of 4. I don't think this will change the plans too much, but I'll rectify it on the next update. Funny thing when DISADVANTAGE turns out to be advantageous <.<

Inox Encampment Round 9A+B

Pending actions from last Round posted:

- Master Splinter executes a Short Rest! Recovers all the discarded cards, loses Withering Claw.
- Master Splinter first attack vs Guard 2 last Round was Ranged so it should have had DISADVANTAGE. This means that both the drawn "-1" modifiers should be applied to the first, ranged attack. I've drawn a new modifier for Splinter's second attack and it was a "+1" instead, so Inox Guard 2 current HP are 2!

END OF ROUND ACTIONS posted:

- Scenario Objective: 13/15

Active players this is going to be a bit different from the usual Round progression since you're all alone and all rested. I'll need you to discuss among yourselves itt and decide a plan of action for how you want to proceed next; in fact, I'll need you to submit (potentially) several Rounds worth of actions if you want to hang around in the deserted village for a while, looting and pillaging, before opening the next door.
I'll stop the update at the moment the door is opened and I'll let you decide what to do then (as if it was a "step B" update) since you'll have full knowledge of what's going on at that point. This should allow us to keep up the pace nicely; if you go for a door straight away I'll guess it'll just be a normal update instead

Part of why I love Gloomhaven is that all of the characters get to be awesome.

That one coin may need to wait for a late game jump move. I suppose that since the Mindthief and Brute have those top Loot 1 cards, we may as well use them. I suggest:
Turn 10: Mindthief uses loot 1 on E2/4 coins. Brute moves slow into door 1 and loots those coins. Cragheart tops off the Brute's hp, gets his ammo ready.
Turn 11: Brute and Mindthief move towards our next door. Cragheart moves to E3, heals himself.

Then we either pop the door on Turn 12 or do another rest after moving where we want to be.

Please submit orders for as many rounds you want to hang around + the round in which you want to open the door. Once the door is opened, I'll stop the update as if it was the normal pause between Step A and B (so that you'll be able to react to what's inside the room).

Actually hang on, I don't want to loot the coins in the far end of the room.

Well that's not...super intimidating. Although, it has to be noted that, since there is no Attack on the Shaman's ability card, it's focus/AI is calculated as if he was executing a melee attack this Round, so he will get closer to our party (to either A3(TopRight) or A5(TopRight) so let me know if you have any preferences!)

Well. The shaman is going to end his turn in my melee range, which is a very bad place to be, for a ranged enemy for a ranged enemy who's conveniently going to place themselves right next to a corner in which they can be trapped. I can clear this room on my own if you guys want to just go straight for the next one, but I'm also not gonna head for the coins in the back of the room if anyone wants to get in there.

Hmm. The coins would be nice, but if you'd prefer to handle the shaman, one option would be for me to open the other door.

I dunno if I can kill the shaman in one turn, but I haven't lost either stun or the disarm, which means that I can short rest and keep him down without putting myself at risk. Being locked in a room with a tough enemy is where the Mindthief shines, especially when she's gained a couple of levels and a wider variety of disables.

If there's someone within three movement of the door I can hit them hard, otherwise just... make the situation worse for us.

Bad idea?

I am going to be opening a door before we finish the scenario, so I'd suggest letting me do it unless we want a third room revealed. Given that, I'd prefer if you either jumped the shaman or went for some coins.

I can open the door this turn or next turn; I'd prefer next turn so I can queue up an attack. We can assess whether to money-grub or end things once that room is revealed.
