| | | | |
| − | I picked up a table top game called AT-43, it uses pre-painted figures that are very cool but off-the-wall expensive. However Fantasy Flight won't carry the product in America anymore so they discounted them by over 50%. The plot of the game is that there are this robotic race who is trying to destory planets in order to build Dyson spheres in order to stop the universe from evertually imploding (very long term plans). | + | Dieter: VI, II, VIII, IV, VII, III, IX, I, X, V<br> |

| + | --[[User:Jason|Jason]] 12:38, 22 January 2013 (MST)Ladies and gentledudes, I have received an email from Ed and he is officially populating the earth with Edlings. He now has two kids, a boy (Theo) and a girl (Ella). He seems to be doing well, and I continue to be jealous of him. Reckanize. |
| − | | + | |
| − | Wow lots of background? Anyway, they came out with an "RPG" where you play as mixed fragtions on the Dyson Sphere, and here is the plot on why the races work together...
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Illegal actions are taking away from the war effort, so they must be stopped so all resources can go towards fighting each other.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Wow, its like they didn't even try. Lets work together so we can kill each other faster. If you fail the mission though the Dyson Sphere breaks and the sun inside breaks out.

| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | [[Aetan Finn|Aetan]] - We have decided that to match wits with a dragon is suicide. However, in so doing, we have also decided that wresting the ruby shield from the mighty orc Grunbad is not, a decision which may not have been the wisest, but is one we chose after much careful deliberation.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | How might we accomplish our goals, my brethren?
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | I can think of a few approaches: | + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | '''Might Makes Right''': The orcs respect strength; this much we learned from the fellow who told us of Oryxis. It is possible, thought not likely, that with all our abilities combined, we might best him in a contest of strength. I do not, however, consider this bridge sound.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | '''The Tip of His Spear''': Grunbad's prized javelin kills whoever it strikes. Perhaps if we were to gain it, we could best him in combat.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | '''His Ultimate Goal''': Grunbad hired Iyi to steal the Ruby Shield for him; the price was astronomical. We can assume that the plunder he seeks goes to repay the legendary thief. A question then arises as to Grunbad's motivation: Does he seek nothing but glory? Is there a grudge he wishes to settle? Perhaps we might hasten him to his goal, or bring about his defeat, with knowledge of his desires. However, if we approach from this angle, real, decisive action must be taken.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | '''The Thief Again''': We could also hire Iyi to steal the shield back. Does anyone have a great deal of money?
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | In any case, I desire that our strategy be sound. Not only is Galen currently within the enemy camps, he may likely have been pressed into service. Additionally; every day brings our lady closer to ruin and the fiend who put her there closer to victory. We must resolve to defeat all that stand in our way.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | --[[User:Matts|Matts]] 16:57, 10 January 2009 (MST)Ok, I came up with a plan! We go into the camp all pissed off that they press ganged our priest/healer; this is a crime they have to pay for! If we're lucky, we'll run into them taking him to Grunbad, and we demand penance from him, to the price of his most prized possession. Then we *mumble* fight him and win *mumble*, and take the shield!
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | All I'm saying is that if we're going to fight him, we should come up with some "standing", some kind of grievance, so that when we do defeat Grunbad, the orcs there respect the result as some kind of justice, right?
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | [[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] brilliant. any plan is better than all the mucking about we have been doing. so, probably it will have to be single combat, for honor's sake. any plans on how you are going to beat him besides making a bridge of air through his chest? oooo, that would be a fantastic power for you. make bridge, only through people. i say if we have not made serious progress by half way through the next session, we abort and go to the clocktower. likely there will be some fatalities, but such is the cost of progress and Fantus will lead the way.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Question for ben: the shield gives Gundbad magic immunity, correct? is the shield protected from magic as well? if grundle is immune to magic, does that mean that he can automatically see through my illusions, or is it just that he cannot be targeted by magic?
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | Wait, why the fuck are we doing this anyway? to get the dragon to come and extinguish the flames to get Danny girl out of the flames, right? Well, Tithe's girlfriend is on the way with the super ice stuff to do just that, we enlist her or steal it from her, so what the fuck are we doing? shouldn't we work on a cure for the poison instead?
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | -[[User:Matts|Matts]] 19:59, 10 January 2009 (MST)Oryxis' flame is one of the only cures we found for bloodstone poison. That's why we're doing this.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | [[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] ok then. i was a bit confused there.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | --[[User:Brandon|Brandon]] 14:03, 11 January 2009 (MST) Yes! I like the plans so far. I had a couple of my own, some along the lines of what Aetan has raised, some slightly different. I'll fit these plans under two scenarios: the Sneaky Stealing Scenario, and Aetan's Might Makes Right scenario. I don't think that these scenarios are mutually exclusive.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | '''Useful Background Information''': We will most likely have the best success if we infiltrate the camp as mercenaries (note: this will probably mean that Tithe will have to not talk for long stretches of time). Regardless of plan, Galen will play a valuable information-gathering role, since he has already inadvertently infiltrated Grundad's camp. So:
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | '''Sneaky Stealing Scenario''': The basics of this plan involve Aefra sneakily stealing the shield. As I see it, this involves a confluence of factors. Aefra can make herself invisible. Tithe can make her silent. Fantus can give her a strength potion (so that she can lift the shield) and , I imagine, might be able to whip up something that causes a stinkbomb, so that no one can smell Aefra (maybe Fantus can recreate the Cherry Lane (?) Effect?). Then, all that we need to do is either (i) make sure that Grunbad isn't wielding the shield or (ii) dampen the "anti-sneakin" magic on the shield (maybe my dispel magic will work for that purpose temporarily)j. Aetan, I hope, can open the old ways to get all of us out of there before our lives are sought by Grunbad's spear.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | '''Might Makes Right''': As Matt's plan, except only one of us challenges Grunbad (I imagine this would be Tithe, because he fits the bill of self-sacrificing martyr most closely). Ideally this will cause enough of a distraction that we can do something nefarious (for example, Aefra steals the spear - which I imagine Grunbad wouldn't use on a measly nobody stone elf - and Fantus heaves it at Grunbad's back just as Tithe disenchants the shield momentarily). This plan also involves a hasty retreat along the old ways, or possibly a mid-air extraction via magic carpet. Aetan could also conceivably be the challenger, while the rest work behind the scenes.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | The best plan - by my lights - combines aspects of the Sneaky Stealing Scenario, the Tip of His Spear, and Might Makes Right. Thoughts?
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | --[[User:Dieterthebold|Dieter the Bold]] 14:52, 11 January 2009 (MST) You forgot option 3: '''Galen Charms Grundbad Into Giving Us the Shield'''. It's just so crazy it might work. Otherwise I'd go for the '''Sneaky''' option, followed inevitably by the '''Might''' option when Sneaky doesn't work.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | [[User:Edmiao|Edmiao]] it is worth considering a hybrid of might and stealth. might fight for distraction, go for the "fair fight" mano a mano, no weapons or armor. then sneaky sneak steals the shield. i could spend all my points on invisiblity improvements for the sneaky option (invisible to sight, sound, smell and magesight, with GM approval)
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | --[[User:Brandon|Brandon]] 10:42, 12 January 2009 (MST) I was also thinking we might be able to go the traditional route, and have Aefra (or Galen, I won't pretend to know how this orc swings) seduce Grunbad so as to get into his bedchamber unsuspected, then sneaky sneak the shield away. It worked on Arthur Pendragon, it can work on this punk ass warlord!
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | '''GABE:''' Lets just kill him in his sleep. Or lets bring him to the dragon, bam, shield delivered, I never said anywhere in the contract that an orc wouldn't come with the shield. Not like it protects the user from his talons anyway.
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | --[[User:Brandon|Brandon]] 10:55, 12 January 2009 (MST) This is actually a fascinating idea. If Grunbad is obsessed with glory, we might be able to convince him that defeating Grandfather Flame would be in his best interest. However, we probably have to make sure Grunbad doesn't have his Life-Seeking Javelin with him, 'cause otherwise I imagine Oryxys would be pissed at us!
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | BEN: you can't kill him in his sleep. The shield protects him from sneak attacks of any kind (it doesn't allow him to detect anyone sneaking around or anything, it just means he can't be backstabbed, etc)
| + | |
| − | | + | |
| − | --[[User:205.175.113.248|205.175.113.248]] 11:34, 12 January 2009 (MST) Ben, am I crazy to think that my spear's dispel magic ability could "turn off" some of the shield's abilities, or the life-seeking spear's abilities, momentarily?
