Geez3r Posted April 10, 2010 Posted April 10, 2010 Part 1 of the Invasion starring: Geckoman Hellion Phalanx Wander Psyche Breakdown Give me a post of you showing up on the scene and roll me some initiatives. Initiative Brick, Titan, House (1d20+0=11, 1d20+2=20, 1d20+1=20) Titan 20 House 20 Brick 11
angrydurf Posted April 10, 2010 Posted April 10, 2010 Initiative (1d20=3) I case there was ever any doubt Phalanx is NOT a lightning bruiser :D
Electra Posted April 11, 2010 Posted April 11, 2010 Initiative: 17 Hope this roll isn't a sign of things to come. =P
Ecalsneerg Posted April 11, 2010 Posted April 11, 2010 As I told Geez, this is set post-RIP so Geckoman will not be around initially.
Cyroa Posted April 12, 2010 Posted April 12, 2010 init (1d20+2=20) I think that's the fastest Hellion has ever gone in a fight...
Geez3r Posted April 12, 2010 Author Posted April 12, 2010 25 Breakdown - Unharmed - HP x4 20 Hellion - Unharmed - HP x4 20 Titan - Unharmed 20 House - Unharmed 17 Wander - Unharmed - HP x4 14 Psyche - Unharmed - HP x2 11 Brick - Unharmed 3 Phalanx - Unharmed - HP x4 One of these things is not like the other... Anywho, 1 bonus HP to everyone for complications. Why only 1? Because you guys have the highest average PL for any of these threads.

Geez3r Posted April 12, 2010 Author Posted April 12, 2010 Brick Toughness vs Breakdown wallop DC 32 (1d20+15=31) Critter has a high Immovable rank, so high in fact, he doesn't have to roll to oppose the trip. 25 Breakdown - Unharmed - HP x4 - Flat footed with -5 Defense until 25, will be fatigued at start of next turn 20 Hellion - Unharmed - HP x4 20 Titan - Unharmed 20 House - Unharmed 17 Wander - Unharmed - HP x4 14 Psyche - Unharmed - HP x2 11 Brick - Bruised x1 3 Phalanx - Unharmed - HP x4
Cyroa Posted April 12, 2010 Posted April 12, 2010 attack (1d20+10=19) I hope that hits... Using: Strike 12 (Extras: Penetrating x3; PFs: Accurate x3, Affects Insubstantial 2) [20PP] link with Drain Toughness 8 (Extra: Affects Objects) [16PP] (The Black Blade) [infernal]
quotemyname Posted April 12, 2010 Posted April 12, 2010 @ James' comment: Breakdown needs to learn that he's not as good at things as the people who specialize in them. I figured this would teach quite the good lesson, and be thematically appropriate.
Geez3r Posted April 12, 2010 Author Posted April 12, 2010 Brick Fort Save vs Drain Toughness DC 18 (1d20+15=35) We're gonna go with no on this attempt. Brick Tough Save vs DC 27 Black Blade (1d20+14=34) Umm no. no. Just no. 25 Breakdown - Unharmed - HP x5 20 Hellion - Unharmed - HP x5 20 Titan - Unharmed 20 House - Unharmed 17 Wander - Unharmed - HP x5 14 Psyche - Unharmed - HP x3 11 Brick - Unharmed 3 Phalanx - Unharmed - HP x5 Cy, which one did you attack specifically? Quote thought it was the one in the middle of the bridge, when I rolled the above it was the one on the south side of the bridge. It makes a bit of difference in terms of what they'll do with their turns. For future refernce BD attacked the Brick, the Titan is in the middle of the bridge and the House is on the cargo ship. EDIT: I'm going to run with the fact that you attacked the giant. Okay, House is going to chuck a cargo crate at one of the support pillars on the bridge, auto hits due to the size involved. He will however use AoA5 and PA 5, bumping the DC to 33, and making his defense drop like a rock. Bridge Toughness save DC 33, threshold +5 (1d20+10=23) Whew. If it weren't for the heavy object rules, London Bridge would be falling down. Titan on the other hand is going to use the Ground Strike PF on their super Strength. Titan Strength check with Ground Strike (1d20+16=25) Oppose that with the lower of your Strength or Dex Hellion, failure means you are knocked prone. But if you look back at the earlier posts you'll notice there were a few cars teetering on the edge of the bridge, some occupied, some not. They're not on the bridge anymore. Turns out a giant stomping around is not conducive to keeping things balanced. Also, the bridge sustained a bit of damage with that maneuver. Need a DC 20 notice check to see if you can see which cars are occupied and which are not. 2 are occupied, the other 7 are not. HP to everyone for the complication.
Electra Posted April 12, 2010 Posted April 12, 2010 Erin's going to leap out onto the cargo ship and attack "House." Full Power Attack with bat. I think a 24 hits, if its defense has been dropped, so that's a DC33 toughness save. Spend an HP to surge, hit it again. A 23 this time. If that hits, it's another DC 33 save.
Geez3r Posted April 13, 2010 Author Posted April 13, 2010 Well with Wander's Leaping, Super-Strength and high Acrobatics, she could have leapt from falling car to falling car, smashed off the roof, grabbed the people inside, jump onto a few more cars and make it back onto the bridge. But kicking the crap out of one of the monsters works too. Speaking of: Toughness vs Wander Bat 1, DC 33 (1d20+14=26) Bruised and Stunned Toughness vs Wander Bat 2, DC 33 (1d20+13=16) KO No round 1 KO's so GM Fiat. Toughness vs Wander Bat 2, DC 33, Fiat Reroll (1d20+13=19) + 10 = 29. Bruised. 25 Breakdown - Unharmed - HP x5 20 Hellion - Unharmed - HP x5 - possibly tripped 20 Titan - Unharmed 20 House - Bruised x2, Stunned until 17 17 Wander - Unharmed - HP x5 14 Psyche - Unharmed - HP x3 11 Brick - Unharmed 3 Phalanx - Unharmed - HP x5
Cyroa Posted April 13, 2010 Posted April 13, 2010 Yes, it was the one in the middle, the giant (thought I'd been clear, sorry). Was trying to distract it (and hurt it) so it'd stop wrecking stuff! So much for that plan... To resist falling down? fall down? (1d20+10=22) Guess that's a no. Notice notice (1d20+5=25) Typical. Well, James notices. :)
quotemyname Posted April 13, 2010 Posted April 13, 2010 Notice check (1d20+6=8) Yea, I can't see anything.
Geez3r Posted April 13, 2010 Author Posted April 13, 2010 Oh no, it was a good plan. I'm just evil. And to be clear: you see the cars falling no matter what you roll on your Notice. It's not exactly hard to see 9 cars take a plummet off a bridge. What is hard to see is weather or not anyone's in the cars at the time. So you could make a blind rescue attempt, but you'd just be playing the odds.
quotemyname Posted April 13, 2010 Posted April 13, 2010 I figure that was the case, but I think with rolling a 2, BD might have trouble even knowing there was anyone in the cars at all, much less which ones they are in.
alderwitch Posted April 14, 2010 Posted April 14, 2010 Psyche notices which cars are occupied. 1d20+16=29 She'll catch one with her with her TK (It's perception ranged so there's no to-hit) and then I'll spend one of my HP to surge and catch the other one as well. Goooo team!
angrydurf Posted April 14, 2010 Posted April 14, 2010 Charge power attack 5 on the monster that was setting up to charge the bridge. (1d20+6=20) DC 35 toughness, Phalanx defense drops to +4.
Geez3r Posted April 14, 2010 Author Posted April 14, 2010 Brick Toughness save vs Phalanx Charge, DC 35 (1d20+15=34) Also, the Brick actually goes before you. I was just slow on the draw. Sorry. Brick Atk roll vs Breakdown, DC 33, AoA 5, PA 5 (1d20+9=14) Miss by a mile unless I'm sorely mistaken. 25 Breakdown - Unharmed - HP x5 20 Hellion - Unharmed - HP x5 - Prone 20 Titan - Unharmed 20 House - Bruised x2, Stunned until 17 17 Wander - Unharmed - HP x5 14 Psyche - Unharmed - HP x2 11 Brick - Bruised x1 3 Phalanx - Unharmed - HP x5
Geez3r Posted April 14, 2010 Author Posted April 14, 2010 To clarify: Brick is the one charging the bridge, next to BD and Phalanx. Titan is the one in the center of the bridge, being attacked by Hellion. house is one on the ship being trounced by Wander.
quotemyname Posted April 14, 2010 Posted April 14, 2010 So that attack actually hits BD because of the distracting power he used, and All Out Attack. By that token TOU vs DC 33? (1d20+12=27) I think that save is about as good as I can hope for. If the DC is in fact 33, that leaves me Bruised and Stunned. And going flying, Unless he's going to hit me through the bridge...That would be nasty EDIT: Pending the actual result of that save, I am considering using one of my HPs to nix the stun, so let me know what actually happens. I'll put a post up after we hash this out.
