Accross the Table (OOC Discussion) [Part 2]

[Melblen_Cairn]

No it wont get everyone from where you are standing currently. Info on Close Blasts;

Blast: A blast fills an area adjacent to you that is a
specified number of squares on a side. For example,
the wizard power thunderwave is a blast 3, which
means the power affects a 3-square-by-3-square area
adjacent to you. The blast must be adjacent to its origin
square, which is a square in your space. The origin
square is not affected by the blast. A blast affects a
target only if the target is in the blast’s area and if there
is line of effect from the origin square to the target.

It may work on everyone except the NPC if you made it to F5.

[Nanshork]

Ugh, I hate determining line of effect. 

It may work?  Sounds like I'll just use an at-will this turn.

[Inspectre]

Hrrmmm . . . should I have an action point?  We've only had three fights today so far I think - ghosts+ooze, magma bugs+choking bubear guy, & Sinruth + friends.  Pretty sure I used an action point on the ghosts-ooze and Sinruth fights, so unless Sinruth counted as a full milestone I should be at 0.5 AP .  But hey, I'll happily take a free action point to machine gun the demon down! :-D

Also is the wererat in total darkness or merely low-light at his current position in the corridor?

[Melblen_Cairn]

Maybe I didn't use strong enough verbiage in my post above. When I said it may work, I should have said it will work from F5, based on that position you would have a line of effect to everyone but Sertanian.

As for the AP. I had thought I counted them up right but perhaps not. It will even out in the end though. Working on response posts now but have to do them in both games I am running so I will have them up tonight (have to stay up late for an upgrade for work).

[Nanshork]

I assumed you used the word may because you hadn't gotten around to calculating line of effect, which I would have understood because it's really annoying with things like pillars.

Eh, I already took my turn.  No worries.

[Melblen_Cairn]

Bare with me here. I have a long post here with the response to Tulugaq and Galadren's turns, the demon and Sertanian's turn, kicking off the next round and then posting for Thespias and the wererat....

[Inspectre]

I take it that the demon did not take it's possible OA against Galadren as it moved past it then?
Lots of stuff to keep track of in this fight, I see!

[Melblen_Cairn]

No it did not. It was too busy with all the others around him at the time. Meaning a hit from Dunor under those circumstances just to hit you was no real option anyway.

Venn or Nan did you need anything from me before your turns? As Inspectre said, there is a lot to keep track of and I may have missed something.

[VennDygrem]

Whoops,  sorry, lost track of the game. Will update a bit later.

[Nanshork]

I was waiting for Venn and then lost track of the game myself....

[Inspectre]

Is the wounded wererat that Galadren's been shooting up still visible, just far down that southern hallway beyond the door, or is he around a corner and out of line of sight from the room?

[Melblen_Cairn]

The Wererat is visible. Not enough move to get it around the corner, but the door it went through is closing so he will have cover from it unless you move past it. It is 8 squares past the door.

Also for Tanthalus, I assume he is going after the wererat going south. It will be out of range in one move which would put you him at what would be O7 (1 square past the door). Since the doors are unlached and open you do not need additional actions to push past them. From O7 the rat is still 7 squares away and out of range of your lance of faith. So you can move again.

Or Tanthalus could move to C5 and make the attack against the wererat moving down the north hall. From that square you can attack but the coner will give the wererat cover and the dim light left from Dunor cracking open a sunrod (shaded some by the corner yet) give it concealment.

Or I can just double move you to the south. Wanted to clarify before I finish updating everything.

[Nanshork]

For some reason I thought the wererat had gone East, not South. 

I'll just go North.

[Melblen_Cairn]

K. Will finish my response then based on that.

[bhu]

ca i conceivably get within range of either rat?

[Melblen_Cairn]

Yes, the one off map to the south. A single move will get you just past the door and you would be able to.

[Inspectre]

Actually, opening a door *should* be a minor action, unless these are super doors or something . . . 

[VennDygrem]

Really?  Then I can update my post, though I'll still need to wait for a map update to see what's on the other side of the door.

[Melblen_Cairn]

Yep. just looked it up when I had a few minutes to myself. It is only a minor action.

Going to be slow in updating the next day or two. I am traveling for work tomorrow so wont have my standard time in the morning for updates and will be getting home late. So it will be Thursday morning when I can start creating the next map. So may be Thursday evening when it gets updated.

Also I will be on Vacation from 11/27 to 12/6. During that period I will probably not have much opportunity to post at all (taking my 4 kids to Disney). but I will have several days off work when I return and will get it all caught up after that time.

[VennDygrem]

No concerns from me. I'll be busy soon with the Thanksgiving holiday, and during that first week of December I'll be pretty deep in studying for finals.
