[Nohwl]

my turn

Spoiler

Show

ok, ill move 20 feet to 7,b,10

do i get to see where you move, or what? how does this work? sort of wish you went first so i could see what i'm supposed to do.

edit--fixed a typo

[PhoenixRivers]

Generally, if we're going to be doing this you and me, there's going to need to be a certain level of trust involved.

As it's your turn, you get to move/cast/whatever. Generally, what I do is mention what areas of the board I have LOS to, and what vision modes I have (For example, if I were in L1, I would say that I had LOS to the entire area north of the north columns, and down the right side.)

I would post my actual turn mechanics in spoilers, much as you did.

[Nohwl]

alright. well, i guess its your turn.

[PhoenixRivers]

My Turn:

Spoiler

Show

DMM Quickened Wall of Stone. B1-C1(ground to 10 feet), B2-C2(ground to 10 feet), D1-E1(ground to 10 feet), D2-E2(ground to 10 feet), and dome it to cover the top. This will effectively put me in a 10x10x10 stone box at C1-D2.

Summon Undead (class ability) - Full round action.

If you have visibility to the area north of the northwest columns:

Spoiler

Show

a large stone dome formed at C1-D2.

Your turn.

[Nohwl]

ok

Spoiler

Show

ill move to 3,b,15 and ill cast summon monster 7 to summon an avoral at 2,a and have it cast empowered magic missile at the dome

damage to dome

(6d4+6)[22]

edit--

if you can see out of the dome

Spoiler

Show

you can see a guy with demon wings has at 3,b,15 and an avoral at 2,a

[PhoenixRivers]

My turn:

Spoiler

Show

2 greater Shadows Appear in B1 and C1. Shadows benefit from Desecrate (bonus HP) and from improved summoning (+2 attack and damage)

DMM Quickened Divine interdiction on greater shadow 1.
Summon Undead (class ability)

Shadow Instructions: Hold for reinforcements.

My turn is over.

[Nohwl]

Spoiler

Show

damage to dome

(6d4+6)[21]

if you can see out of the dome

Spoiler

edit--my turn is done.

[PhoenixRivers]

My turn:

Spoiler

Show

2 more greater shadows appear. (B1 and C1, Altitude +5)

Activate Karma bead.
Cast DMM Quickened Spell Resistance (SR 29)

Your turn.

[Nohwl]

i feel like i should be using a bunch of ifs to determine what i am doing.

Spoiler

Show

command avoral to fly up to 25 feet and cast lightning bolt at the dome, shooting the same spot again.

(8d6)[26]

if the dome is broken and i see something to attack

Spoiler

Show

cast moon bolt and a quickened moon bolt

(4d4)[6] for the first one, and (4d4)[7] for the second. dc of 19 for both of them. fort save if the target is not undead, if it is undead, then its a will save. if there is only one undead, then i don't cast quickened moon bolt

if dome is broken and i see nothing

Spoiler

Show

cast murderous mist inside the dome.

(2d6)[4] reflex save, dc 20

if dome is not broken

Spoiler

Show

cast see invisibility on myself

edit-that ends my turn

[PhoenixRivers]

Whether the dome is broken depends on damage types of the attacks.

The dome has 45 HP in any one square.

Most forms of damage must deal with the hardness, however. Most forms of energy damage are halved before dealing with it.

What are the damage types of the above attacks?

[Nohwl]

force, force, and electric.

don't think i've ever done an arena fight before. it might take a few tries for me to win.

[PhoenixRivers]

Force - hardness applies.
Electric - Halved, then hardness applies.

The dome is not broken.

(Force: 22-8 = 14 damage)
(Force: 21-8=13 damage) (27 total)
(Electricity: 26/2 = 13-8=5 damage) (33 total)

[PhoenixRivers]

My action:

Spoiler

Show

Cast Freedom of Movement

Order shadows to attack.

4 Creatures exit the dome, at C1, C2, B1, and B2 (altitude +15). They ghostlike and shadowy. What do they see?

(Turn not done)

[Nohwl]

alright. hopefully i'll adjust to this by the end of the battle.

[Nohwl]

guy in mithral armor, looks a bit demonic, has demon wings, at 3,a, 25.

avoral at 2,a,25.

edit--wow, i just realized i cant hover. alright. should i redo my movement, or ignore it?

[PhoenixRivers]

The creatures descend upon the avoral, ending movement in:

b1: +20
b1: +25
b2: +20
b2: +25

They all attack it. (Touch attacks)

Attack 1: (1d20+8)[27]
If hit: (1d8+2)[3] strength damage
If threat: (1d20+8)[27]
If crit: (1d8+2)[6] additional strength damage

Attack 2: (1d20+8)[16]
If hit: (1d8+2)[8] strength damage
If threat: (1d20+8)[9]
If crit: (1d8+2)[4] additional strength damage

Attack 3: (1d20+8)[12] **Miss**
If hit: (1d8+2)[9] strength damage
If threat: (1d20+8)[14]

If hit: (1d8+2)[5] strength damage
If threat: (1d20+8)[27]
If crit: (1d8+2)[10] additional strength damage

Provided the Avoral doesn't have any touch AC buffs active, it took 16 str damage.

EDIT: Leave it for now. We'll go over any rules issues after the match.

[Nohwl]

[roll]2d6[/roll]

[PhoenixRivers]

do you care if my movement speed was screwed up before?

Not particularly. It's a small arena, and you had several rounds to do what you wanted.

[Nohwl]

[Nohwl]

i'll cast wings of cover as an immediate action to block the strength damage, and that gets rid of my swift for the next round.
