Raddok brings his arm to an apparent blocking motion (arm flexed at elbow, chest height, & forearm forward at 45-degree angle holding mace upright in his fist (he's practiced this with the mace since he got the ring) so that the ring on that hand faces the target in front of him, but he's also keeping his shield in a protective position to his left a bit. He will aim for the pirates in front of himself & Barbosa, stepping slightly to one side (if Barbosa blocking his view). He whispers the word to trigger the spell, aiming slightly between Pirates # 16 & 18, who almost seemed overlapped from his viewpoint, hoping the splitting of the fire darts hits both, although if he's off, he might hit either one of #16 or #18, & possibly the two closest to those villains (pirates #15 or #19, or the others at M&K). The rest of the time, if time there is [for this update], he will again use his mace & shield on those pirates nearest him, reserving the ring's last use for an emergency or a prime target (like the wizard he is afraid might be around somewhere). If Barbosa falls from his wound, Raddok will stand over/in front of him to protect him, as best he can. GM: Ack. Brings up a good point. Aiming such items. To me I assume its gem up – ie if hand flat on table and fire it should fire at ceiling). But I can also see that Mus would add a aimer so it goes where you want it to aim magically Stuff to consider. From Kiet: [Re: Actions] If Kiet sees anything magical+enemy, it automatically gets ring fire. End that shiite quickly. GM: Ack. Reserve for magical. Ack. From Fremea: [Re: Actions] Upon noticing these birds, she quickly understands that they are what caused Awarn to fail at what he was doing. She will not allow them to do it to her. She quickly casts Paralysis (EL 2 to get it off in one phase) at the left bird and flies straight for the other one to engage it in melee combat with her daggers. Telling Corona to fire at the other one (that is hopefully paralysis-ed now). GM: Ack. Good plan. From Pyan: [Re: Actions] Yes. speaking of languages, anyone going to speak up on what languages Pyan was able to convince you to sharing  with him? GM: Ack. The lang.txt file I sent in FB is a common language everyone has and used for learning new ones. Chart shows apr 26 so today is 27. So 1 slot today and probably 5 more before reaching Vahear. Depending on how long stay in Dechan maybe 6. So 1-7 more slots max then its allover to learn stuff this go around. So let me know! ------------------------------------------------------------ [New Stuff] [Apris 27th, 1636TH] [Time: 2:18:00 pm] [Turn 36: Phase 3 - [Phase 260]] Fremea builds energy for a spell. Mae begins to reload her crossbow but knows it may be another 30 seconds or so to do so. Pyan is happy there are no more Archers he can stand with no cover with better angles now. He turns to the 4 pirates at the aft gangplank blocking it and fires. He hits Pirate #26 in the neck doing 4 points of damage. While it is a neck wound it was only a graze so not severe damage. Fremea turns to the birds realizing due to their magical energy these are not normal pirate pets. As she puts her bow back with one hand she points at the left bird and speaks her Sidh tongue. The bird suddenly becomes motionless as her wings stop and gravity takes over. The bird lands 30 feet onto the deck. It takes 6 points of damage to the small bird and kills it. Kiet tries to cast an abandon spell on one pirate but fails. Raddok raises his arm in a good angle and activates his magical ring – with his heart pounding from excitement – saying the word in a soft whisper. For Pirate #15 and #16 both are only 2-3 feet away. The fire dart upon mental command splits into 2 beams and both hits for 9 points each. Pirate #15 screams as he is hit in the chest and clothing flares up in flames. Pirate #16 is instantly killed. Raddok smiles at the great use of the rings still can fire at least once more. Corona was diving toward one pirate but when he sees the birds and one fall he suddenly realizes they are by instinct dangerous. He turns and swoops toward the last bird and fires his magical red eyes. The beam hits the bird squarely in the back and does 6 points. The toasted bird slams into the deck dead. Fremea was about to yell to the eagle but smiles as now both birds are down. She sheaths her dagger and pulls her back to her hands. Zol Zim lunges at the wounded Pirate #10 and does the final damage to kill him. Unali dashes for the stairs. She leaps down the stairs not even using them to walk down. No need for stealth now. She lands on the deck in the hallway and glances both directions. There is one pirate to the right and 2 to left. She can't afford to turn her back on the 2 so rushes left. She tries to kick pirate #39 but he step backs and she misses. She stabs pirate #40 but one dagger misses but other dagger hits in left center chest doing 11 points killing the pirate. Brutto moves around Ix and the wolf and swings at pirate #11 doing 2 points to his left arm. Finn moves around Mournath and charges pirate #14 but slips on some water on deck and almost falls down. Ardackle has no good targets so decides to put pressure on his wounds and rests. Zepp swings at Pirate #19 but misses. Mournath stabs Pirate #12 with his spear doing 4 points to his left arm. Kiet stabs with tulwar Pirate #15 who is on fire thanks to Raddok and kills him. Mainly to get him out of the way. Raddok is taken aback by the rings and so leans a bit too forward when he swings mace at #19 hitting him the left leg doing 4 points of damage as the pirate deflects the mace downward. Barbosa swings his own mace at Pirate #19 as well and hits doing 10 points in his right arm breaking his arm and killing him. Pirate #11 swings on Ix but her height helps and he misses. Pirate #14 and #13 swing at Finn but both fail to make contact. Pirate #12 swings at Mournath hits but his armor protects him. Pirate #17 moves toward Kiet and hits but his Iron Skin protects him. Pirate #18 charges to Barbosa swings but fails to hit. Pirate #20, 27 and #29 all attack Dorhak. First 2 miss but #29 hits Dorhak but his armor protects him. Pirate #21 and #22 move port side but is blocked by others for any attacks. Pirate #28 and 31-33 move port side but are blocked by others. A few of them begin to argue with those blocking the aft gang plank. Probably they should board and kill the last 2 on that ship? Pirate #34-38 move from aft to forward in a fast jog to get better positions. The two pirates in hallway near Unali charge and slash from her front and back. But she deftly avoids the blows. Dorhak swings mace at pirate in front of him but misses. Ix swings her cane-sword at Pirate #11 but misses. ---------------- [Time: 2:18:03 pm] [Turn 36: Phase 4 - [Phase 261]] Kiet allocates mana for a new spell. Pyan fires on Pirate #23 and hits his left arm and it travels into his chest doing 9 points and the pirate falls dead to the ground. Fremea fires the single arrow into the crowd below but misses. Kiet notices one sailor is louder than others and must be a officer so casts his abandon spell on him – Pirate #22. Corona dives toward a group but miss his strike. The wolf leaps at Pirate #12 and does the final damage to kill him. Unali stabs Pirate #41 and pierces his neck killing him instantly. She twirls and kicks out at the one behind her but misses as he dodges. Brutto steps over the pirate the wolf just killed and stabs Pirate #13 killing him. Finn stabs Pirate #14 right in the heart and kills him instantly. Ardackle moves next to Kiet and stabs Pirate #17 doing 7 points to his middle left chest. Mournath stabs #17 in lower left chest with spear and kills him. Kiet thrusts at Pirate #21 with his tulwar hitting him in middle right chest doing 8 points. Z'leyra tries to move her head but still can't. Moments ago she heard strange voices of a language she didn't know. As she watches Arawn breathing it seems it is getting more shallow. Then one voice seems raised in agony or anger giving orders. Something bad happened to him or his people. Raddok glances over his shoulder and notices the front line of pirates have been slaughtered. He turns to Pirate #20 and hits him with his mace in the upper right chest doing 10 points killing him. Barbosa swings mace at Pirate #18 but misses. Pirate #18 swings his own sword back at Barbosa but misses. Pirate #21 affected by Kiet's abandon spell lowers his sword and walks past #18 , Raddok and Barbosa. Keeps moving forward past a smiling Kiet, confused Mournath and shocked Finn. He ends up near the stairs. Pirate #27 and #28 swing at Dorhak first misses but second hits his shield and he blocks it. Pirate #30 approaches Barbosa and thrusts his sword but misses. Pirate #22 runs and takes up position in front of Kiet. HE swings but his iron skin protects him. Pirate #31-33 end their argument with the idiots at the gangplank and move forward. Pirate #31 swings on Finn but misses. Pirates #34-38 move as one unit from the rear and forward then turns toward the party for combat soon. The last pirate in the hallway swings at Unali but misses. Dorhak swings at #30 but misses. Ix thrusts her cane-sword at Pirate #27 and impales him in the right upper chest doing 16 points killing him. [Time: 2:18:06 pm] [Turn 37: Phase 1 - [Phase 262]] Actions? Comments? Next Update...Saturday? GM: Finally its done. Just some notes I may be off on my Phase math above I think I may be too high on the phase #. But we'll keep it as is. ) At this point with 40+ tokens on map mistakes by my dwarves are easy to make. So map placement may be off but I think 98%is accurate. Next update who knows? Got 5 doc appointments this month between me and family. That's about 5 days gone plus Taxes and other stuff. We have Stuff to do up until 2nd week in April. So I'll do next update when I can. Will try maybe Fri/Sat if staff cooperates (usually don't). The second line of pirate defense is upon party. Get rid of them it should be easy going. So 29 pirates on deck 11 are dead and 1 SOL (Abandon). So that's almost half gone/dead. Update on sheet updates – down to Kiet, Z and Arawn. For IBT and past experience. I do during “free' time. GM: Fremea – Surprised not using those archery spells. :) Kiet – How many new castings of abandon will assume more next phase. Raddok – Rings worked well think have 1 more use.
