One of our players needs a little extension since the confirmation for them to sub in was a bit last minute I'll wait for Zurai to send their orders and I'll update once I've received them!

Mmm I'll try to reach out to Zurai again, they were around before but it looks like they may have missed confirmation that they had to sub in. If I can't reach them, I'll ask the next player in line to sub in.

Whoops, sorry, I did not in fact see the confirmation that I was subbing in. Also, double sorry, but I just realized that I'm going to be incommunicado next weekend from Friday thru Monday (going to a cabin in the mountains in Kentucky with zilch for wireless or cellular data access) so it might be best to go to the next sub? Sorry!

Replied to your PM but I'll repeat it here: that is not going to be a problem, as I'll also be away from Friday to Monday, spending some time away from the city during Easter If you want, the spot is still yours!

OK, hand/opening orders in. I'll be moving relatively fast (for a Cragheart) and tossing out a rock and some healing.

My plan is to apply Warding Strength and throw a dagger and the closest archer. I will dagger another target if the rest of you would prefer to focus down a skeleton.

Maaaaaaan, I should have hid behind you guys. If you could dagger Skeleton 2, I can probably kill it this turn, or DEFINITELY next turn.

Some Numbers posted:Maaaaaaan, I should have hid behind you guys. I think you'll be fine, actually (assuming I understand focus rules correctly): The archers won't attack you, of course, since you're all equidistant and you're the slowest initiative. Bones 2 will focus the Brute (fastest initiative), move to C2, and attack him and the Cragheart (2nd-fastest initiative). Here's where it gets funky. The very first thing Bones 4 will do is choose a focus. That focus is the target it can reach with the fewest movement points. In this case, hex C2 is occupied, so there's only one hex that it can reach with a Move 1: D2. Therefore, it will focus the Cragheart. I realize this is counter-intuitive (it could just move 2 and attack 2 targets!) but that's how monster AI works: choose a focus first, then maximize additional targets afterwards. (I'm pretty confident on all this, but if someone wants to double-check, I'd be grateful; this all assumes the Cragheart doesn't move, of course).

Phelddagrif posted:(I'm pretty confident on all this, but if someone wants to double-check, I'd be grateful; this all assumes the Cragheart doesn't move, of course). I haven't checked the hex-math yet, but I can confirm that a monster will pick a focus according to the normal rules even if it has Target X. If there are multiple valid locations to move to according to the focus rules, it'll move to the one that maximizes the number of target, but it won't do so if this would force it to move into a non-legal hex if it didn't have Target X. FULL FAQ ON THIS: After determining focus, how exactly does a monster chose its destination hex and how does it maximize its attack on its focus and any additional targets? It will determine its final destination hex (the hex where it can attack it's focus) by using the prioritization rules below at the beginning of its turn. The evaluation is first done using the monster's current movement range. If the monster can't reach a hex from which to attack using the movement it has this turn, the rules are re-evaluated assuming infinite movement. Also, the monster uses its current attack when determining its attack/movement options, even if it may have a different (or no) attack when it eventually reaches its destination hex. If there are multiple hexes that meet the criteria, players decide ties. 1st - Attack its primary focus, losing/avoiding disadvantage if possible 2nd - Attack as many extra targets as possible 3rd - If there are still multiple attack locations with an equal number of different extra targets, use the focus rules (least amount of movement points*, then proximity, then initiative) from its starting position to determine which secondary target (in addition to the previous target(s)) should be included in the attack (repeating for a tertiary target, etc.) and select the attack location which includes these targets. 4th - Lose disadvantage on the extra targets (all equal priority, players decide ties) 5th - Use the least amount of movement points* *Around walls, obstacles and hazards (if possible) using the normal, jumping and flying movement rules

My plan is to heal somebody and chuck a boulder at the nearer archer, splashing everything else for 1. I'll probably heal myself since between the two of us we should be able to take out the archer targeting Bullwinkle and I'll be eating two skeleton attacks without any armor while Bullwinkle has his Warding Strength and Hide Armor. Splinter isn't taking any damage this turn and should be fast enough to get out of Dodge next turn so I think that's the best option.

Healing yourself seems completely reasonable. I'm going to shank a Skeleton. Though I can shank an archer if you guys would prefer?

# ? Apr 14, 2019 23:37 |

Actually, yeah, if Rocky throws a rock at Archer 1, I can run around the trap and probably kill them and then be prepped to kill Archer 4 very early next turn.

Good first turn! Sorry to Italian Guy. My wife was sick yesterday and I was taking care of her so I completely forgot about my step B orders. She's better today so I'm going to have my head in the game. This turn: I intend to go fast, heal either myself or Rocky and do a piercing attack on Living Bones 2.

Reik posted:Will living bones 4 move to hex B1 in order to attack both Rocky and Bullwinkle this round? They've got the move 5 necessary to do it. Assuming everyone was still in the same position when it's its turn to act, Living Bones 5 would in fact move to B1 to attack both. Its focus is Rocky; after that, it'll move to the valid hex from which it can attack Rocky + as many extra targets possible, up to 2 more; if there were ties, it would have distributed its attacks based on point 3 in the FAQ I've previously posted. See https://boardgamegeek.com/geeklist/234575/item/5887984#item5887984 for a visual explanation (that's slightly more complex of a situation, but the same basic principle applies).

OK, I'll keep my turn flexible. I'll either kill one of the Living Bones or heal whoever needs it most. Thankfully they aren't doing their focus fire routine this turn or I might be in trouble. EDIT: Orders are in. I'll kill skeletons if there are any alive or heal people if not. I'll also be advancing forward to stand near the door except in one specific circumstance.
