Armisael
Level: 7
XP: 1/5
Home Terrain: Magic
Side: 4th Empire
Attack: 2d6
Defense: 1d4
Special Slot 1: Attack Special tier I - Ego Supra Mundum (Armisael Over The World)
Special Slot 2: Pet Master Tier III - Uranicus Comitatus (Heavenly Warband) (1d8/1d8)
Tier 2 Special: Weird
Sub-Faction: Armisael's Boasters (Focus: Full-on Attack, FOR MASSIVE DAMAGE!)
Other: After defeating a Great Wyrm Red Dragon through a stupid DM's critical hit houserules (Never allow exploding dice. Who would have thought a tiny ruby could cause so much damage?), Armisael saw his confidence (and his levels) greatly boosted, believing that his victory had been due to skill instead of luck. Since then, he has attempted ever more bold and suicidal stunts, with the dice favoring him time and time again. Having heard of the Third Empire making a comeback, he has decided to fight for the Fourth Empire again...and to win the war single-handedly.
Update: After a tremendous battle at Shadowpaw Castle, during which he sustained grave injuries, Armisael was the victim of a terrible transformation, which increased his Charisma Score by 10 points and changed his Paragon Path from Pit Fighter to Androgynously Cute Hero. Additionally, a new member is incorporating itself to the nor more powerful Amerigo Squad.
After the events at the ball, Armisael finds himself prettier (again), and more powerful. Additionally, his weapons have grown in size, and he feels a compulsive urge to stroke them constantly now.

I'm including the last few actions, mostly because Pig never officially declared a cut off, and I'm not perfectly sure of when the battles started. Hopefully things will be a bit cleaner in the future.
Anyway, does this look right to everyone? I'd really hate to forget anybody on my first battle post.
Just to clarify:
I posted this last week, but TA thought I couldn't do it. Considering how we have two weird per week, it falls under the purview of last week's uses, but I wanted to make that clear to avoid confusion later. Also, first PC post!
Where are you quoting that from exactly? As far as I know, you said after the sunday cutoff that you where going to declare wierd on me after sunday reset was resolved as you belived our fight would resolve on monday update. I said, no, it should resolve on sunday update, and that cutoff has already passed.
Unless I update there's no cut off until the update. Just make sure it's only 4v4.
You stated that the 7:00am rule was officially adopted.
Also, here is everything ARM said between declaring the attack, and cutoff time sunday.
Armisael Attacks the Ziggurat Ruins. I get a +1 bonus from terrain, on top of anything else. Bring it on!
Yup. So, that's gonna make it 1d4 vs. 1d4+4. Unless Toasted has a terrain bonus, he autoloses. I like how being a juggernaut feels.
Plus, I get an extra point per person that joins in on your side. At full power, I'm going to have 1d4+7, effectively compensating for being Weirded in a grand fashion. It's probably in your best interest NOT to mass your people, as it makes TA less and less important, while giving my side a huge static advantage.
Yep. It makes me a powerhouse. It might be a malevolent pointy stick of doom that intends to brainwash Arms into a suicidally overconfident braggart, but I love it!
Well, the plus side is that I'm easy to take down, especially because I'm going solo with Infinite Rage.
Annihilate. NEXT!
No, seriously, I've been really scared of that thing ever since we started this thing. If anybody gets that, I autolose my fights, which is just terrible. For reference, I'm fully expecting somone to take that to counter the storm of Ragers. Otherwise, yeah, I'm a juggernaut...but I'll eat a hat if nobody takes that ability come level 10.
The battle resolves on Monday. Guess who gets Weird back by then?
Mostly because Pig hasn't updated yet, yes. You SHOULD be alive already, but Pig's gone.
If it helps, here is the only thing he said since then.
Grats on the promotion, Escher! I'm sure your tenure as the Battlemaster will be wonderful. I'll snatch that first player post now
He implied that he was going to weird me, but never Declared that he was Weirding me.
Point being this ;
I posted this last week,
is a lie.
By the way Legion Scouts are going to attack after Escher updates. :D
Ah, well, consider it declared by way of the quote on my first post.
It makes you guys look like smartasses.
I hate how people add stuff in 5 seconds before hand.
It makes you guys look like smartasses.
........
Sorry?
You made the rules, Its not our fault that it is an extreemly powerfull tactic that, if sucessfull, is more useful than any special on any of your lists.
Whatever. We'll let Escher decide. That's the most fair thing to do, and it spares us from having pointless arguments.
2 points.
1. Not really. The most fair thing to do would be to go by the rules as they where put down at the time that the fight began.
2. I like pointless arguments. No really, I do. I love em. Bring it. ;)
(Just try and loose the attitude.)
2. I like pointless arguments. No really, I do. I love em. Bring it. ;)
No, you don't.
....What? :angelhide
Also, sorry if I seemed uptight. It's just that this is a situation that is pretty unique due to how updates have never been delayed before, so anything could happen and debating is pretty pointless.
BTW see the last rule.

You would make a terrible lawyer. :}
Toasted: I tell myself that everyday.
Hubris: The others are pawns in your game.
Toasted: Well duh.
Hubris:...I love you!
((Guess where it goes. :P))
You would make a terrible lawyer. :}
Obviously, sir, you have never seen me make a speech. I can practically induce a physical state of sedation by speaking about something long enough. :P
Nah, you stil have a descent chance. 1d4+4 and 1d12 have the same average of 6.5. Your min is 4 higher than mine, and my max is 4 higher than yours. It's in the hands of the dice gods really. I just have nothign to lose. Whats the worst that could happen, Toasted gets the afrtifact and begins to think he is better than everyone else, that they are just there to be manipulated into waring with eachother for his own amusement?
He doesn't already think that? ;)
EDIT: If it's Word of God, I will totally ship Hubramf. Or is it Toastbris?
@Arms, you are agreeing with me, right?
@silver, What is a Hubramf, and why would you ship it? Is Toastbris similiar in some way to bruschetta?
One could argue Toastbris comes from the Bible.
Brit milah, pronounced bris milah, "covenant of circumcision"
??
Are you suggesting I should start circumscising people?
OTP: One True Pairing
Pig, I'm going to start copying people's characters to the second post of the thread, I saw that you copied some of the rules stuff so I don't need the room for that, m'kay?
*raises hand* I have Execution, so Draxlis would've died too.
So you do. Sorry Drax.
Yay, I won! Whoopie!
:bounce:
The naming convention is standard for the ship. ToastedAmphibian would be Toast- or -amph (amf), and Hubris would be Hubr- or -bris.
It's been a running a joke to ship characters with each the whole war (well, between some of us) and Pigknight referenced it, so I took it to the conclusion he left open :P
EDIT: Epic ninja'd in the space of three minutes :P
Escher you are a lifesaver! By the way did you code a program for this?
GIVE ME BACK MY LAIR! Carric goes to retake his lair, the Zigguraut Ruins!But I should live until then.
Uh EE? I have a d12 defense, not 2d6. Roll it agian. :}
Before I do, did you place your level 6 stat point? According to pig's stats of your character he should be level 6, but it listed 1d4/1d12. I thought you had upgraded your defense but pig hadn't caught it.
Or they update their sigs and didn't tell me.
No one tries to take over my crib, yo. Armisael Attacks Hellblaze's Lair.
And...
Shade Attacks the Void-Tainted Barracks. Unless Bane has officially dropped, of course.
BTW Arms I only wanted you to control the Vanguard for that one time. They're mine now that I'm back.
Aura either becomes a sexy 3d4 or 2d8 when you have 2d6. It REALLY pays off to max your main stat. Then again, d12 is swingier and has a higher rate of 12's, so be my guest.
Yah, im gogin to hold off placeing it anywhere untill the rules update with an offical determination of what happens with 2d6 and aura. Right now i'm d12. I like unpredictability.
Are we really going to do this letting other people declare things for characters that are not theirs business? Do I need to start campanging for writs of submission now? I think it best that AFK characters simply dont get to play. You must participate to participate kind of thing.
Well, Bane ceded control. If that's not kosher, I can always edit Shade's attack out.
BTW who wants 3d4 or 2d8 for 2d6 Aura?

More importantly, I hope it is a shapechanging sword. OMG I DONT HAVE ANY HANDS!
Seriously, Bladed Tongue Ring Of Hubris, BTROH!
OMG I DONT HAVE ANY HANDS!
...Didn't TA pick up something before with his hands? Or with hands at least. Maybe from a corpse or something.
Really, or are you just being funny?
:}
('Cause if your just being funny, well, that was pretty funny.)
Gotta love that it's not my problem anymore. :D
Toasted are you a toad, a frog, or what?
http://www.d20srd.org/srd/monsters/toad.htm
It might not be your problem, but it is your fault this time. You have him listed in yoru rules thread as 2d6, despite the fact that he is only level 5 and thus not even able to have thoes stats.
A Legion Scout attacks Castle Shadowpaw.
Two Legion Scouts attack the Plains of Unfought Battles.
EE, don't forget my SYG bonus in your calculations.
Well, I'd like Echo to attack somewhere, any suggestions, oh mighty Empire people?
Hey, If your gonna re-roll TA's, I have a d12, not 2d6.
... son of a biscuit eater. That's Pig's fault, not mine. He has you listed as having a 2d6 defense, and I went by what he had listed. Before I make any changes here, I have to ask: Pig Knight, what level is HDI supposed to be? You have him listed as 2d6 defense, but level 5. So which one is the error?
Bobcat Attacks Onslaught Tournament
Well, yeah. I'm fine with the results, but that reroll might have been unnecessary. If TA decides to keep the d12, then the reroll is fine, but otherwise, we should go with the first result.
For now he has a d12, and can level up. He has not leveled up yet, and until he does he will be treaeted as level 5.
...I thought he leveled up.
Any other errors?
Once you are in the 'active' list, it is your responsibility to verify that the stats are correct prior to engaging in a battle. If you are inactive for a period of time (I'm thinking 1+ weeks of no activity in the edition war), I will move your stat block back to 'inactive'.
And now I get to go back through the thread and update all the declared attacks.
You know, I should have listened to my father. "Never volunteer". Ah well.
And, just so it's said, thank you for helping out with this.
We get shirts that say: "Everyone goes gay for Escher"
Also, thanks Escher.
And lastly, I need a rules clarification. I'm assuming that, if I used All or Nothing in a battle right now, I wouldn't die as On Your Feet would kick in on the day the battle resolves. Is this correct?
TA: Yes.
On the other, I didn't forget anyone.
I'll call it a wash. Anyway, to people that declared battles, I sent you PMs asking for confirmation on the battle choice (in case you changed your mind after I redid those two battles), as well as asking for confirmation on the stats.

Should I post new stats here, or in the rules thread?
Edit: the important part is that wherever they are, you let me know so I can put them in the second post of this thread.
Seriously, no constructive criticism?
/pity
With that in mind... you guys need to attack more. At once. You have until 4 PM CA time to declare more attacks that will be resolved at the same time as the current ones. Though it seems kind of skeevy to me to squeeze in a new attack just under the dead line so it's effectively only one day, rather then two.
You could edit it so that the sblocks are closer to one another. You could have 4e and 3e territories in separate sblocks so that each side's lands are easier to identify.
Done. Well, editing the sblocks closer is a mostly... it makes the code look hideous so I may have missed some in the first post. The second one... it's just hideous wading through the code, so I may get to it later. Or when my scripts are debugged.
Did you change around the locations? They're all alphabetized now.
Yep. I'm also alphabetizing people's character cards as I get updates.
It's a 1d4 atk monster.
And yet I wont be surprised if I lose because my min is a 3 and its max is a 4.

Considered eccentric even by its peers, Draxlis is a creature of a curious nature. Upon entering the world, its alien mind was fascinated by mammals, especially on the nature of the mechanism of reproduction that such unnatural, strange, unlikely creatures might employ. Having a true scientific soul, it decided that it should learn firsthand whenever possible.
Every scientific project requires funding, however. At first, it found out what this world's first profession is and attempted to employ itself so. For some inexplicable reason, although highly enjoyable, that plan hasn't resulted in great profit, so Draxlis tries to raise some money by fighting as a mercenary on behalf of the 4th Empire. The fact that some of its rulers look like its relatives works too( for example, the emperor looks like its grandma).

Edit: Nevermind, got an answer. We're golden.
Was bane playing Shade? If so, should someone on 4e play Shade for him? Is Shade a dude or a chick? If need be I can play Shade. If I have to RP Shade then it will be like Shade has amnesia or something.
Has anybody bothered to answer me? Will anybody bother to answer me?
Updated with Zombie_Babie's, Ellorin's, and Half_Dragon_Infernal's stats, and added Half_Dragon_Infernal's pet to the battle for the Plains of Unfought Battles.
Edit: Nevermind, got an answer. We're golden.
Speaking of this, Escher, your stats on me are correct and I'm not changing tack for now. Sorry if it was kinda late.
Has anybody bothered to answer me? Will anybody bother to answer me?
Yes, I was but it got kiboshed, dude, and I think we'll have to kill him off, in that order. No real need to answer because it was all answered a long time ago.
Incidentally, expect the megapost to appear soon. I just need to determine good codenames for Jeremiah and Danielle...
The "i"s will throw people off ...
Is Armisael attacking with me?
Yes, I was just waiting for confirmation from Arms (he had posted the attack before I changed the outcome) about his plans and his stats. It should be there now.
(If none of you guys religiously read the NPC stats just skip this.)
Aliforn attacks the Plains of Unfought Battles using Inflict Light Wounds.
Right then, now that I know how this will be resolved...
Idolis, will Aliforn be helping the Legion Scout and then let the scout have the land, helping the Legion Scout and then fighting it for land, or just be a third side?

Actually, I was going for XP for the little orcess but let's see here, hmmmm.
I have a question. If I decide to fight on the side of the Legion Scouts (I thought there were two of them attacking that territory) and if 4E decides not to fight will I still get 1XP or none?
I was hoping that I could take the territory if 4E decides not to fight the Legion Scout(s) but if not Aliforn has back up available.
Another question of mine is, what does fighting as an outsider mean? Does it mean that if my rolls beat the Legions and seperately whoever, if anyone, 4E decides to send to defend it that 3E gets the territory?
I'm a little confused.
Edit: Strike the first question, I didn't see HDI pet had decided to defend so my first question is moot. But the second is still valid somewhat.

Well, TA brought the question back into discussion, so check out the rules thread for where it may go. But as of right now, you have three options:
- Go in under the Legion Banner and only the Legion Banner. If the attackers win then Aliforn walks away.
- Go in under the 3e Banner and the Legion Banner. If the attackers win go into overtime for a 1 day battle to fight the Legion for the Land.
- Go in under the 3e Banner and only the 3e Banner. Fight against everyone for the land.
We are currently discussing whether or not option two is a good option, it may be rescinded. Please feel free to join the discussion, as I would appreciate more opinions on this.
I apologize for the confusion.

Bump me up to level 6, and increase my attack to a d6. Otherwise it looks good.
I'll just say from the 2XP from taking Castle Shadowpaw, 2 XP for Hellblaze Lair, and 1 XP for the RP(I seem to remember that mentioned somewhere) I should be level 2 now.
Anyway, put my upgrade point in On Your Feet :D
TouchFuzzy, I'm not sure about your XP... I had to dig up your stats from the rules thread 'cause piggy hadn't included you in the first post, so I need to double check your XP. It might take me a while to dig through the battles of the old thread.
Oh yes, we did forget about that. EE, add to everyone who RPed in the past week 2 XP.
... I have no idea who didn't RP. I know who I RPed with... but I admit I wasn't paying as much attention to many people. Help?
Also I neglected to give out RP XP, my bad.

~Tertiary Upgrade: If both you and your pet are in the same battle, increase your value by 1.
You can make yoru pet 1d6/1d6, 1d8/1d6, 1d6/1d8, or 1d8/1d8. 1d10 anything is not an option.

Pig said the legion wouldn't use allies, which I think means that even if Aliforn would be amiable to a temporary truce, they would just try to eat her face. I need to get it into the rules that both parties need to be willing. So I think I'm going to have to kabosh the alliance. Does she join as a third faction all-together, or go fight somewhere else?
Carric: Same question.
(If I don't get a response in time, I'll go ahead and count you guys as a third side)
And again, I apologize for the confusion. Hopefully now that we have the rules a bit more formalized the process will be smooth and streamlined next time this comes up.
You're right though. It might be time to abandon her because there is no one to fight. I'm not sure though because inactive players can easily come back and we would be on the downside again.

Subfaction: The Brokeback Brigade
Other: Idolis lost his wife after she long suffered of some mysterious malady. He joined the 3rd Onslaught after she, on her deathbed, made him promise to do great things in her name. On his first day with the Rebellion he joined the 3rd Onslaught's Commander, Dark Stryke, in scouting out what would become their base and be named Alisha's Tower, named after his wife. Alisha's Tower was controled by an orc and goblin raiders but after Idolis and Dark Stryke defeated them, two goblins pledged servitude to Idolis.
Idolis sent those two goblins into the mountains to recruit more goblins into the service of the 3rd Onslaught. The goblins who came became known as the Brokeback Brigade and through many victories have earned a reputation as well trained warriors.
The Brokeback Brigade have assumed control of the Mines of the Dead and have fortified it against attack. Idolis hopes that someday after the War is over the goblins will establish a peaceful kingdom in those mines.

You calculated the Blades bonus wrong. It gives +2 +1 per enemy. Not that it matters any, but 3e score should be 30, not 28. Also, dosn't TMK get a terrain bonus?
/grumble. I suspect Pig changed the text of the sword at some point. I thought it said +1/defender when attacking on top of the +2. /grumble
and yeah, I missed TMK's terrain bonus. I guess I'll go all emo now.
@Armisael
I agree, buying fortifications looks rather... cheap... for what you get, but I'm playing rules arbiter, not rules master. If you would like to discuss the merits of the the ability to buy fortifications and the pricing of such purchases, I would appreciate it you do so over in the rules thread.

Fifty resources. And that's just to buy something that is comparable, you have to shell out 60 to use it, just once. This rule doesn't just have to be remodeled, it has to be scrapped and we have to forget that it ever existed. This victory still stands, but that keyword HAS to be reversed, too, and the resources returned. You simply CANNOT get something so cheaply that gives such a massive advantage, and we are NOT transforming the game into resource whoring to see who can cancel the other's terrain advantages. Just no. It's not gonna happen.
Seriously, the new rules is just so unbelievably, utterly stupid, I find it hard to believe it exists. I literally banged my head against my desk when I saw it.

Aliforn takes Retribution as her Tier 2 Special
Oh, and I think D_S is upgrading his counter attack. I think that puts me at +3, but PK's rules are really ambiguous. It goes +1/3, +1/2, then +1/1, max +3, right?
(Although the plan was really to kill you. And hopefully some other people. Didn't expect ZB and TMK to jump in last minute. Was waiting for 4e to declare more attackers, at which point DS and Idolis where going to join, and we where going to buy the fortification, to try and kill all of you. Twas a trap I say!)

Good. I just added 1d12+1d4+2, or 4 to the 4e side for the battle of Wizard's tower.
Is that because you think you'll roll minimum, or am I just misreading?
Look at my record. What do you think I meant? Actually, wait, make that a 5.

While this probably shouldn't have worked, Fred's longtime friend (an undead scorpion named Mel - well, actually, her real name is Clamps) has taken a liking to the frog and helped sway Fred's mind. He now fights proudly for 3e though most probably don't know he does. In all honesty, though, he fights for his friends. Mel, TA and Escher. I don't think E considers Fred a pal, but Fred doesn't understand that. And that means he likely never will.

Yes. It just looks at your current total, it dosnt care when you got them.

the 4th Empire curb stomps the Mage King's minion. The mage king's minion rolled below the minimum for the empire, awarding no experience. (Hrm. Is this actually the first time that rule has come into play? Am I just crazy? I seem to remember a rule like that once...
Yes, there is a rule like that and yes this is the first time it has come into play. It should be more like "less than half of your opponent's maximum" because the only way to roll below your opponent's min is to be alone vs 4 people that are using hella dice and modifiers.
