True! But she beat him, which will upset him, especially since it was a sword fight! Also, he moans a lot and is generally unlikeable.

Julian: "If I let these guys do all the fighting, I can hide in safety, then kill steal her when shes on 0 wounds and inflicting even 1 probably kills her! winning!"

Least dwarfy fight ever!

"What a poacher!" Admund says while unconscious.

I actually thought it was appropriate that Julian took her down, as well, it's Julian, the Graf's champion. I see him as basically the leader of the party.

I think Klaus killing her would have been best, if he was still a party member.

Hans just isn't used to teamwork. She would have destroyed him on his own, and it'll eat him up.

Hans didn't fail! He behaved very heroically, and he caused five or six wounds to Etelka. He'll be getting lots of EXP!

Agreed. You acted in character, which is best. I think Admund more failed because some goon made his arm almost fall off.

I always saw him that way as well.

Not sure if she'll be dead by the time Hans walks over, so might leave it there.

For the record I as a player have no problem with how events panned out. It's Hans who will be upset!

rufus sparkfire · « **Reply #13232 on:** June 09, 2016, 12:17:35 PM »

So, Mortus, Ragni, Sybo and unconscious Admund are going back to the boat. Julian, Hans and Max are on the roof still. What are they planning to do?

Sig · « **Reply #13233 on:** June 09, 2016, 12:22:41 PM »

Search her body, then head to Graveland to report the results. Then sleep, because Hans hasn't slept since he got whipped, beaten half to death by demons and now stabbed by Etelka.

rufus sparkfire · « **Reply #13234 on:** June 09, 2016, 05:56:42 PM »

OK. Post in the thread!

Welcome to the party! We have a great healthcare plan!

It's finally the next day! Have some EXP! Please let me know how you're going to spend them.

Hopefully, it was OK to end the scene there and move things along?

Sig · « **Reply #13237 on:** June 12, 2016, 10:34:10 PM »

Yeah, not a problem for me.

Can't decide how to spend my xp!

Karl Voss of Averland · « **Reply #13238 on:** June 13, 2016, 01:42:00 AM »

Admund is a mess!

I advanced BS (I shot my crossbow a lot in this game day) and increased Wounds, because what doesn't kill you makes stronger).

Rufus, since I added a W, do I go up to 3 Wounds? I kept myself at 2 since I assume no. My max wounds are now 10 and heal back to it.

However you like! Remember that, as well as the options to increase stats or learn career skills you don't yet have, you can try to learn non-career skills. Though this requires an Int test, and probably also a tutor.

Good choices!

I'd say the stat increase only affects your maximum wounds, not the current level.

I'd like to learn pistols but don't want to take the test and fail.

I'll probably go with Int, BS and either wounds or Toughness. I'd like to do Initiative but Hans is a bit old to be getting faster. Same with Toughness.

Max should learn escapology!

Pistols aren't that good anyway. Noisy!

Hans could learn to focus his mind and become more observant, resulting in increased initiative. The stat doesn't only relate to speed.

I just feel his crossbow pistol is super weak. At some point I'll pick up the throwing weapons skill and try out poisoned throwing knives. Hans is fairly ruthless and that sort of thing doesn't bother him.

Karl Voss of Averland · « **Reply #13243 on:** June 14, 2016, 01:22:00 PM »

Seems like most ranged weapons are super weak, unless you have blackpowder at very close range, or you're Hans Untergangs with the longbow.

rufus sparkfire · « **Reply #13244 on:** June 14, 2016, 01:34:21 PM »

The crossbow pistol is S3, like a bow. A crossbow or a pistol is S4. Not that weak! It's the same as most close combat attacks.

The difference is there's no 'strike mighty blow' skill adding 1 to the damage, as there is for melee.

Finlay · « **Reply #13245 on:** June 14, 2016, 04:36:22 PM »

fully heal yourself on level up, ala skyrim!

rufus sparkfire · « **Reply #13246 on:** June 14, 2016, 05:02:46 PM »

During a combat!

Karl Voss of Averland · « **Reply #13247 on:** June 14, 2016, 05:22:46 PM »

Only if Julian and Ragni start Skyrim style chanting in the background!

rufus sparkfire · « **Reply #13248 on:** June 15, 2016, 09:34:45 AM »

Regarding the keys: Etelka only had them because I thought she'd probably be carrying some. Not because they're a clue!

Sig · « **Reply #13249 on:** June 15, 2016, 10:11:38 AM »

Fair enough. I was more thinking of getting into her rooms and stealing/burning her stuff. But we can ignore them. If you don't want to have to write about her old hideouts you can just have Graveland report that they've been searched or something and Hans will let it go.
