[Talic]

Init: [roll0]

No current purchases. May change, based on yours.

Updated sheet to reflect the items used in last match.

[Maurkov]

[roll0]

Lets go ahead and let our partners time out while we wait for their initiative checks.

I see that there are a bunch of items in your purchase list that didn't make it to your equipment list. Are you leaving them home?

I'll purchase 3 scrolls of Magic Stone (75 gp) and 17 sling stones (0 gp). Reactions?

[Talic]

Mulling reactions.

Updated sheet to reflect a couple used items.

Potions and torch bug paste are correct as listed on my sheet. Weapons and armor are listed on the appropriate sections of my sheet (Guisarme, MW gauntlet, Studded Leather). Other items, such as the Feather Token, were used already.

If I have an item that is not on person, it should be listed in my gear section as "XXXXX - In Bank". If it's found that by my purchases, I should have an item, but don't, it should be on my person. This shouldn't be the case, as I just performed a purchase audit on myself.

[Talic]

Ok. First:
1 Potion: Protection from Good.
1 Potion: Protection from Evil.

That should help against your summoning.

Will continue to ponder, but I think that's all. Reserve the right to make additions up until the 1st action of the match.

[Maurkov]

Our allies will time-out tomorrow, right?

[Talic]

By the rules in the waiting room, they had 3 days to post.

The thread was created 4/30/09, at 4:42 pm.
Three days from that is 5/03/09, at 4:42 pm.

That means all we need is a high ref to make it official.

[Kyeudo]

GM Kyeudo

If I understand correctly, Cyn and Dusker haven't shown, so you're just going on ahead with the fight, correct? If so, have at it.

[Talic]

Very well. Any other responses to my current purchases?

[Maurkov]

I really want to get a crawling tatoo of ego whip, but no. I think I'm ready.

I'll put my spell list in my first action post.

Done.

[Talic]

Greenscales, Round 2, First to Act:

Well, drat, I was hoping he'd go far enough north for me to see. All that movement, I'd expect he's staying away from walls, on the lower level. Hm. Have an idea. Most fights are short. Let me try something unexpected, based on that.

[Talic]

You done with your turn?

[Talic]

Assuming your turn is over. If this is not so, let me know.

Greenscales, Round 3, First to Act:He's not on the north side of the map. I'd see him otherwise. That means he's on the south. It's my guess that since my movement's greater than his dog, he's gonna be cautious rounding corners too, as I can just run him down and AoO. That puts him in the bottom left corner of the map, which is unfortunately the only place I can't reach and threaten. Hrm. Time to do something about that.

Move: from P8/Q9 to V15/W16.
Ready an Action: Move if LOS is Established.

May modify actions if LOS established.

Done, Pending LOS.

Greenscales, 1st to act:

In V15/W16. Hiding while moving is pointless... d20-8, lol. I can cover most of his area, and that's gonna have to be enough. I'm not waiting for my enlarge to wear out.

Move: 35 feet south. If no LOS, then continue a double move to I22-J23.
If LOS, will amend my move from the point it was established.

Need LOS.

[Psionic Dog]

HighRef PsiDog

LoS Established when an enlarged Greenscale enters V21/W22 welding a guisarme.

Leaf is mounted in F22 holding a shield and a scroll.


Still Greenscale's turn.

[Talic]

Continue to I22-J23.

Done. That puts you well in my threatened range.

[Maurkov]

Leaf

I'm going to trigger an AoO one way or another. Can you roll it in spoilers and let me know if I should bother to plot out the rest of my move?

[Talic]

Well, what I attack and such is greatly dependant on what you do.

[Maurkov]

Fair enough. I'll think of something.

Edit:
Max and Leaf back up to E22, triggering an AoO.
I'll finish the turn based on the result.

[Talic]

Ah, it was edited in. Blarg. No wonder I didn't see it.

AoO. Attacking Dog.
Specifically, Tripping Dog.

Touch attack: [roll0] (vs touch AC 12?)
If Hit, Opposed Check: [roll1] (+7 str, +4 Size, +4 Imp Trip)

If successful, Free Attack on Dog: [roll2] (vs Dog AC-4... 16?)
If hit: [roll3]
If threat: [roll4]
If Crit: [roll5]

[Maurkov]

Touch hits. [roll0] Edit: trips.

If so, [roll1] Edit: success.

The follow-up attack misses (chain shirt barding).

So Max is prone, Leaf is standing in the same square. Since the AoO happens before we actually went anywhere, can Max still stand (move action) and move (move action) this round?

Not done.

[Talic]

The AoO happens as a result of your movement. The dog has taken a move action. Leaf, however, has both a move and a standard available. You do have an additional +4 on that check, though, as your dog is 4 legged.

[Maurkov]

Leaf Round 4 Init 13

The dog gets taken down; Leaf remains standing. Max stands while Leaf moves away, F22->E22->E21. From there he casts Entangle, centered at M22-N23.

Reflex saves required, DC14
[roll0]


Done.

[Talic]

Reflex: [roll0] (factoring in a -2 dex size penalty)

Edit: That's a success. Any further actions?

[Maurkov]

No. Still done.

[Talic]

Ok then, my go.

Half speed, so my movement is down to 25.
Free: Activate Rage. Get the crazy eyes.
Move: From I22-J23 > H23-I24 > D23-E24.

Provoke an AOO from your dog in the movement. Will continue turn after that is resolved.

[Maurkov]

[roll0] [roll1] [roll2]

[Talic]

Greenscale's current AC is 11. (+3 armor, +1 dex, -1 Size, -2 Rage).

However, your attack doesn't factor in the -2 penalty for the dog being entangled, which makes your final roll 10. Attack's a miss.
Attack's a hit, dog's not entangled.

Pending result of opposed trip by dog (next message):
Complete the move, I'm now 10 feet from you.

My turn (continued):
Free: Drop guisarme.
Standard: Trip attack on Leaf.
Touch Attack roll: [roll0] (+9 str, +2 BAB, -1 Size)
If Hit, Trip Check: [roll1] (+9 Str, +4 Imp Trip, +4 Size)

If successful, Improved trip gives me a free attack.

Unarmed Strike: [roll2] (+9 Str, +2 Bab, +1 Size, +1 MW weapon) vs (AC -4 for prone)
If hit: [roll3]
If threat: [roll4]
If crit: [roll5]

If I hit with an unarmed strike, Scorpion's Grasp gives me a free grapple check.

Opposed grapple check: [roll6] (+9 str, +2 BAB, +4 size, +4 imp grapple)
If successful: [roll7] damage, and we're grappling.

[Talic]

Opposed trip check vs dog:

Str Check, +4 for being Large: [roll0]

[Maurkov]

good game.

[Talic]

Likewise. I was fearing an entangle spell. Anything else, I knew I could run you down, but creative entangle might restrict or stop my movement long enough for you to get away. That's why I prioritized getting you off your mount. I figured I could take a hit or two, as long as I could direct it to an exchange of blows, rather than a 1 sided volley of rocks.
