Thank the luck skill ...I will donate Ranald soonish....oh while I am at it I donated 100 crowns at the temple of Sigmar and have to deduct those still.

Lets see if we can get all the mice at the bacon at one time.

Lets see if we can get all the mice at the bacon at one time.

Do mice like bacon?

[Fandir Nightshade]

Yes of course....

In German there is a saying "Mit Speck fängt man Mäuse....with bacon you catch mice." It is meant to express that you have a certain bait for a certain occassion.

[Cannonofdoom]

I am interrogating properly...think Hans Landa, Inglorious basterds...so much more fun making some smalltalk and fishing for other information that might slip then suddenly changing pace and turning the whole conversation 180 °

I mean more waving my impressive document under his nose and threatening to turn him over to the church unless he tells us everything about everything.

[Fandir Nightshade]

We can always do that afterwards This way we might get all of them in one go.

[Mogsam]

I might buy Arnst a pipe. Then he can happily puff away.

Maybe German mice like bacon. The last time I caught a mouse, I used chocolate as bait!

Good plan. Billy the halfling boatman is spending all his time doing that instead of rushing around risking his life.

On the way to the house, Heinrich will insist they stop by his brother's office. He will inform his brother of the man's Red Crown affiliation, citing the tattoo on his chest as proof, and have him quietly arrested while we head to the safe house to clear it out.

[rufus sparkfire]

It's not really on the way though! That's a massive detour.

[Cannonofdoom]

Then Heinrich will send a runner he can trust. Maybe Hennig? Is he on the way? Maybe one of the guards Mortus hired.

[rufus sparkfire]

The safe house is just a short way down the street you are on now. I'd mark it on the map, but I can't be bothered to upload a new picture right now. But you could send one of Mortus's guards (I doubt they'd run though). Or Max! He'd love to do it.

[Fandir Nightshade]

We shouldn´t capture the guy yet....he should organize the meeting of the cult at the safehouse to get the tattooes magically erased I would suggest that Mortus and Klaus go there with someone also following ...at best unnoticed (Heinrich). The others can organize a strike team to ambush the place as soon everyone is there Heinrich can find the others and bring them to the place everyone waits outside Heinrich sneaks close and once Klaus makes a signal...gunfire for example the strike team busts in and we capture/kill all of them at once. The strike squad shouldn´t be official guards nor Sigmarites just hire a bunch of tough as nails Mercs at some shady tavern we need fighters and they won´t mind who they kill/capture and we run minimum risk that a traitor in the chain of command gives away that we have infiltrated the place.

We could send Max to get guardsmen! I'm sure the watch would love to be responsible for a huge arrest of cultists to show up the Fiery Rose knights taking over their turf.

[rufus sparkfire]

Yes, send Max! He promises to run all the way!


Anyway, plan away. Bed time for rufuses.

I vote for my plan. 

[Fandir Nightshade]

One corrupt guardsman later we might not get all of them. I vote for them...let them assemble and THEN bust them plan. 

good night Rufus

Yes, let us get all of the cultists in one place, that way they can easily outnumber us.


Maybe Mortus needs to heal us up, since she won't be much use in a close quarters fight anyway. Don't want her fireballing us like she did Arnst, especially not inside a house.

[Fandir Nightshade]

If you think they could outnumber us ...hire more thugs we have enough money and we can get it back afterwards Heinrich should be able to raise 30-40 Free company...even though they cost a point more these days.

Mortus will do Mortus things no matter what we would like.

 

[Cannonofdoom]

Mortus will do Mortus things no matter what we would like.

 

Yeah. 

[Fandir Nightshade]

Might be she kills us all to become the Cult Leader...because they get fancy and cool tattoos

[Cannonofdoom]

Or for no reason at all. She's like a psychopath. There's no method to her madness.

[Fandir Nightshade]

No...no it all makes sense you just have to open your eyes and see the light (play along or she really DOES kill us all...just to prove a point).

[rufus sparkfire]

So what do Julian, Mortus, and Arnst think, plan-wise?

[Cannonofdoom]

No...no it all makes sense you just have to open your eyes and see the light (play along or she really DOES kill us all...just to prove a point).

I'm not scared. Wouldn't be the first RPG I've been in that's devolved into a PC vs PC brawl.


I'm tempted to just go off on my own and get my axe looked at by a real mage. Let you all fend for yourselves while Heinrich gets back to actually solving problems. Julian can come too, he's helpful.

[Cannonofdoom]

Heinrich's investigative style is a bit like a scent hound. He's content to sniff the trail until he finds where it leads, but he's not going to continue sniffing when he spots his prey. He's more liable to go baying full bore after it than sit back and wait. Not a subtle minded man.

It's not that he's reckless. He's just impatient and fairly angry at these Red Crown jerks.
