I like how it was "if she caught Max" not "I wouldn't fireball if it was Max".

She would have been less likely to fireball if it had been Max, and there is no chance she would have thrown two, but it is what it is. If it is any comfort I hope Arnst survives.

That fire wasn't too friendly!

Only one wound though.

commandant · « **Reply #3953 on:** November 15, 2012, 12:08:32 AM »

Get away from there Arnst before Mortus fires again.

What is the ranged ability of the pirates and can any of them close the distance between them and Mortus before she can fire off another fireball?

Mogsam · « **Reply #3954 on:** November 15, 2012, 12:16:05 AM »

She's on a boat and their heavily wounded on fire! I think she's probably ok.

Friendly fire!

How bad is my stick sword? Should I be trying for a better weapon? Also can I shove a blade in the end hidden or something like an evil bond villians special weapon?

Finlay · « **Reply #3956 on:** November 15, 2012, 12:25:37 AM »

Mogsam, I think all weapons are the same, unless a great weapon.

Or magical like my sword.

Mortus over reacted with fireball, I think we'd have killed them all easily.

Mogsam · « **Reply #3957 on:** November 15, 2012, 12:27:21 AM »

Ah fair enough! Thought i'd check since bashing them with a sword cane seemed like underkill. All 5 missed against me! Would have been fine if not for the fire. Don't think they're that good.

Also why does everyone get killed by groin damage?

rufus sparkfire · « **Reply #3958 on:** November 15, 2012, 12:52:27 AM »

There are some rules for other weapons (see the character sheet thread, in the middle somewhere: http://warhammer-empire.com/theforum/index.php?topic=42711.0 ). But most things are hand weapons. You can buy some sort of special enhanced weapon though, maybe. Arnst's strength is a bit low, so that's why he doesn't do much damage.

The pirates were rubbish fighters. Next time they all get pistols and two attacks!

Max still managed to get himself beaten up, of course.

Finlay · « **Reply #3959 on:** November 15, 2012, 01:09:38 AM »

Damnit Mortus, I wanted another boat.

rufus sparkfire · « **Reply #3960 on:** November 15, 2012, 01:13:44 AM »

They only cost like 600 crowns to buy!

Besides, that boat had been full of filthy pirates.

Not really, Mortus just saw a load of pirates. A lot of fireballs seemed the right thing to do.

You are quite lucky that I went to bed and Rufus decided that it was too dangerous to fire more fireballs because I think Mortus might have hurled another two to show the pirates what was what. Maybe not though, as Max had jumped over.

rufus sparkfire · « **Reply #3963 on:** November 15, 2012, 10:19:18 AM »

Mortus might become unpopular with the rest of the party if she starts blasting everything with fireballs.

Oh, and don't forget Julian can use bombs now!

commandant · « **Reply #3964 on:** November 15, 2012, 10:22:48 AM »

She really can't win can she, Heinrich was annoyed when she wasn't blasting people with fireballs and now people are annoyed because she is?

rufus sparkfire · « **Reply #3965 on:** November 15, 2012, 10:35:32 AM »

Ha ha!

Anyway, choice time: go to Grunburg, or straight to Altdorf?

Exciting new map!

Look at all the places!

commandant · « **Reply #3966 on:** November 15, 2012, 10:39:04 AM »

Aldorf

We can come back and talk to that woman later.

What? There is a time and a place for fireballs. Generally NOT when the rest of the party is near the target.

Her rationale for firing them near Arnst would worry Julian too. “I don’t really know him, so I don’t care if he dies”

Isn’t that psychotic?

rufus sparkfire · « **Reply #3968 on:** November 15, 2012, 11:40:53 AM »

Julian could throw bombs near Mortus, 'accidentally.'

rufus sparkfire · « **Reply #3969 on:** November 15, 2012, 11:48:12 AM »

Heinrich intends to go directly to Altdorf on his own (which is fine, since party-splitting is easy in this game format).

So far, we have Klaus for going to Grunburg, and Mortus for Altdorf. Tie-breaker votes, please!

Finlay · « **Reply #3970 on:** November 15, 2012, 11:52:41 AM »

(did I forget to buy bombs?)

Grunburg then altdorf. May as well talk to her first for more clues, as we have no leads at the moment.

rufus sparkfire · « **Reply #3971 on:** November 15, 2012, 11:57:07 AM »

I assumed you bought some bombs, or possibly made some, while you were learning the skill in Nuln. So you might have half a dozen or so on board (safely stowed, I hope!).

OK, so the Hound will go to Grunburg (unless Arnst objects) while Heinrich goes straight to Altdorf (he can deliver the Arch-Lector's letter to the Grand Theogonist).

There is a vast number of pirates that will overrun the boat and destroy the cargo and kill her friends v a random beggar that she has barely met and doesn't know. Not much of a choice really.

Mortus doesn't place that much value on life per say, after all she is from the warhammer world ahere life is often short and brutal.

Finlay · « **Reply #3973 on:** November 15, 2012, 02:36:05 PM »

Except they posed no threat to us whatsoever.

commandant · « **Reply #3974 on:** November 15, 2012, 02:56:43 PM »

Less a boat load of armed men posed no threat to Mortus, Anrst, Billy and Max [who were the only ones on deck at the time, or at least the only ones I could be sure were on deck]. That is a reasonable way to think.
