    Does everyone have character pics? I can crunch out some tokens.

    That's... a good idea. I think I'll just prepare an action to attack, and use Combat Expertise with a -2/+2 bonus.

    Unfortunately, I don't have a picture for her yet. I have a picture of her mask (technically a character wearing the mask), if that'll work.

    So is Sharkan readying an action too or are you guys good to proceed? And does anyone know if there are any rules about what order readied actions go off in? If there aren't you guys probably have the drop on your readied actions going before their readied actions at least.

    Sorry for the delay in posting, going through a bit of decision paralysis over whether to charge the druid, or start working my way through the grunts...

    Go for the druid I think. He's the one most likely to throw major spanners in the works for us. Cypher can face off against the marine captain and hopefully distract the grunts whilst you two try to take out the druid.

    It definitely can start a fire. However

    A) There are various ways this fire could be put out.
    B) Fire does not actually spread that quickly remembering it’s six seconds a turn. There are rules for it in stormwrack but it’s kind of random so you’ll be putting faith in the dice.
    C) A non-negligible incentive for this fight is to steal the supplies this boat is carrying, and possibly the boat itself. That’s hard if the boat is engulfed in flame at the end of the fight.

    I think you can't be targeted by AoO whilst under greater invisibility. You also get an extra +2 to attack.

    Also your movement speed is 90ft with fly and haste on you.

    Well, I can be targeted if the enemy can see me, I assume, and I'm taking no chances. Besides, with a double move I have the speed to move cautiously. If my foe can't see me, I think I get more than a +2, isn't the target flat-footed as well? That means sneak attack dice! But I'll wait for confirmation from our DM on that.

    Caution is totally fair enough! With 180ft double move you can possibly have a good look at the ship too!

    Yep, the enemy may indeed be considered flat footed.

    In case it makes a difference, Cypher is the only commander who is not invisible.

    Also, I can't see the initiative tracker any more, sorry!

    Hmm. For some reason every time I close the window it disappears. Not sure what to do about that honestly. And that doesn’t change anything that’s happened so far but thank you for being clear with it.

    Also regarding Lamorak’s arrival. You teleported from 720 feet out. He can travel 200 ft a turn. A 15ft ascent on that (remembering vertical movement counts double) means for every 15 ft he moves horizontally he moves 5ft vertically which costs 10ft of movement. So (200/25)*15 gives 120ft of horizontal movement this turn and rises him by 40ft. So he’s 600ft away.

    Did you already roll initiative for him? If not can you do so now?

    Cypher's only CL7 (yay Swiftblade being a 6/10 caster) so I think it's 680ft.

    Actually, because Typho can 'run' at *4, he can fly 400 feet a turn. His fly speed is 70, plus 30 for haste; and the no-run-while-fly, I think is only a stipulation of the fly spell. otherwise my drakkensteed is much slower in the air than on the ground which seems.. odd? :D

    EDIT: You guys look like huge badasses by the way. And yeah, DuskRaven! The mask picture you have will work fine for now, we can always change it later!

    Oops, and initiative: (1d20)[16]. I don't think haste boosts that at all, does it? Doubt it.

    Ah, you’re right I was looking at the wrong speed. So doubling that gives 240ft forward and you’re now 440ft away.

    Great! Next move will also gain some altitude. But he'll level out as much as he needs to so he's within 200ft of any point of the ship at the end of the 'run'; setting himself up to charge whoever he wants the turn after.

    You know, I was afraid of this exact scenario happening - my invisibility being disrupted and getting surrounded by enemies. Fortunately, the marines are a lot worse at hitting me than I thought they'd be.

    All right then. Her character was actually inspired by a picture from, of all things, a mod for a game called Slay the Spire. Fans of Touhou may recognize the character the mod adds to the game. I, of course, really liked the mask.

    I'm working on getting an actual picture for her (with the mask!), but that will take a few days.

    I'm tempted to place Cypher on the opposite side of that mass of people around Maiabel to take the heat off her a bit (just in case) and give her flanking. Will that interfere with any of your plans Darius?

    Eh, you have a very high AC. And they rolled badly. They weren’t like only hitting you on a 20 or anything but I don’t think any of them rolled higher than like a 13. Still not an ideal situation but not a doomed one.
