Fuckin' SWEET!

Teams of two or a four-way brawl?

 

Permalink

Four on one.

Permalink

Shit!

SHIT!

 

Permalink

That's such a shame. I liked Cressida Kroft.

Permalink

It's not a fight to the death??

Permalink

We're fighting her four on one in an arena where she can't kill us.

That means we're meant to learn how strong she is, right from the start of the campaign.

 

Permalink

We'll have to fight her again when we're higher-level.

Permalink

And that one WILL be a fight to the death.

Permalink

You're getting ahead of yourselves.

 

Maybe she'll just get worfed on to show some villain's power.

RIP Kroft either way.

Permalink

Positive energy is in short supply, so we won't break skin.

You win by disarming me or putting me on my back. I win the same way.

 

Permalink

I'll stand in the front with the Megapope. She drops one of us, the other makes a Trip attempt and soaks her AoO, Altronus five-foots up and tries four Trips.

Permalink

After that fails, Choryon makes a trip attempt with her polearm and takes a five-foot step back, Kroft charges and Choryon gets an opportunity attack.

That's four Trip attempts from me and two from Choryon... If she's an 8th level fighter with 20 STR, 12 DEX, and Improved Trip, that's 26 CMD.

We need to bring that number down.

 

Permalink

Oh, I know!

We could try tripping her! Prone is -4 AC.

Permalink

I'll give the pope my net to throw, it's a touch attack.

Permalink

Choryon can move and flank with Altronus - even if Kroft knocks one of you down, draw a weapon and you'll still threaten.

Permalink

Sounds like a plan.

Permalink

After but a moment's quiet consultation, Choryon passes the cleric a folded net to hold in his offhand and the party breaks ranks for the spellcasters to move up front.

Permalink

Let's roll dice.

Permalink

Round 1

Lunge.

Whirlwind Attack.

Lyvina, Olin, welcome to the floor.

 

Permalink

So much for the plan.

By the way, her bonus to trip is between +8 and +22. Assuming Improved Trip and at least 14 STR, her minimum character level is 4 and her max is 18.

 

Permalink

That's a narrow range.

Permalink

Is there any rule against throwing nets from prone?

And does a 14 hit your Touch?

 

Permalink

1) Implicitly.

2) But yes.

 

Permalink

Choryon rushes in and sweeps her naginata at the Watch Sergeant's shins.

Does a 15 hit Kroft's Combat Maneuver Defense?
