With Nuts of course.
Happy Holidays to everyone! Whether you celebrate Christmas, Yule, Hearths Warming, or some other degenerate (Kwanza) or (((unspoken))) tradition, I hope you have a safe and 'as happy as possible' holiday season as you no doubt maneuver in and out of the world of normies and others!
I have no idea if any crucial gaming will occur weekend, but its about to get funky-fresh on several fronts. We last left Torcuil trying to navigate through Krenshal for someone skilled and crazy enough to build a Robo-ponk. Trumpaladin and Tracy were getting their things together to hunt a Unicorn with Elway's blessing and direction. Thez is being a little bit emo (its the hormones) while Infernius continues being a dutiful and upstanding guy.
What will happen next, and in what order? Will the players defy GM's careful designs for the umpteenth time? You can bet on that!

Did the party get a good look of the layout of the Court City when they rescued Infernius?

Aww, too bad. If they had moar info, it'd be a great mission to sneak in and destroy those lich phylacteries, some day.

>mission to sneak in and destroy those lich phylacheteries
As soon as the main army is repelled or partly destroyed, we're calling Baz, resurrecting the Pirates to use as mercenaries, and then launching a full frontal assault on the Court City before the lichs revive

>full frontal
Wouldn't the lichs be able to transport their phylacteries if they sensed an assault on the capital? As to my knowledge, they could manifest next to their treasures, and the just teleport out.

>if they are killed in the attack on Port Barry
That's not how liches work. They ONLY go away once their phylacteries are destroyed. After we kill Ruth, she'll just turn to dust, manifest in her room where her phylactery is, and immediately start planning the next attack. A lich is invincible so long as its phylactery exists in the world.

I know that. They still need to have their phylacteries destroyed to go away permanently. It could also take a week to move an entire army to the capital.

Then let's do it. A combined Port Barry/Sparintenar/mercenary army assaults the city, while several of the players go directly inside, similar to last time, to kill off and destroy more important targets.

No, not yet. Baz said that Sparintenar has been preparing to assault the Court City head on for years though. Just explain the situation, offer agreeable terms for the peace, and Sparintenar will be willing to strike while the iron is hot

Not especially. The whole place was complete disorder, shifting from industrial technology to raw caves, to worked stone. It rather bore the resemblance of several cities or structures mashed together at random.

Now that I look at it, there really aren't that many Neutral Ebil Outsiders in 3.5e. Hags and Nightmares are the two most powerful fiends of that alignment. No mention of yugoloths in that edition either.

Didn't the first few pirates you resurrected just run away though? Are you sure they'll take part in the assault?
Either way, may as well bring 'em back anyway.

Only one pirate has been resurrected thus far. He was scared and apprehensive at first, but eventually said more or less "I will do anything for money so long as I believe you won't fuck me over." He would of course have left the tower in the week or so after that, but I would imagine he could be located at the rusty spoon or sickly wicket or whatever the taverns are called, which is why I had Trumpaladin go to a tavern - to talk to him and ask about cannons.
The remaining 23 pirates are still dead, but we have material, and I had Trumpaladin produce "calm emotions" scrolls to aid in the resurrection. I was going to resurrect them anyways to use them to make potions and such
>Are you sure they'll take part in the assault
No, but GM hinted that Port Barry's are willing mercenaries
>>38092
He'll want his stuff back. I think the costs will probably outweigh the benefits

>It could also take a week to move an army to the capital
It might take a week to move an army by land. But The Court City is located on a river. Korak, when he first told us about the Court City, said he could take us there in his ship, The Jolly Cunt, telling us that the river is navicable even by a galleon as far as to the Court City. And we also happen to have The Jolly Cunt as a party resource, including cannons that haven't even been counted, even if we haven't explored it yet. We can put troops in it, and sail it to the Court City. Any excess Troops or resources that don't fit in it can go in either of two Caravels that we also have and have not used.
The Court City is 80 miles away. By water it's longer, maybe 120 miles, but even if a sailing ship only goes 5 miles per hour - with only half decent winds and needing to tact - it can get there in 24 hours, because sailing ships don't need to rest unlike horses.
>But what if GM changes his mind and the river is not Navicable
Sparintenar is at the mouth of the river on the Ocean. It's a great place to take the troops half way there, disembark, and meet up with Sparintenar allies before going to the Court City, while also by passing Cardishore and any resistance it may give. We would probably want to stop in Sparintenar anyways to meet up with friendly forces

He'll want a lot of things back, I am not sure it would be worth it

I can get new swag. A lot of it was pretty much tailored to him anyway, and still reeks of his personality.
I Tracy gets Weapon Focus in her daggers, she might not need the sword so much, now that she has her Ever-whirling chain.
>by river
How many boats do we own?

I'm not giving up my portion of the loot, and I really would rather not lose the ship and the two dozen pirates unless we got a sweet deal out of it
>how many ships
Two or three caravels, and a galleon

He could probably escape pretty easily like that.
Better to just offer him something of ample value in return, like his swag back.

When you cast Planar Ally without a patron deity, can you seek out the general kind of creature you're trying to summon, or will it just be any outsider in coherence with your philosophical alignment? Can you seek-out creatures you have knowledge of?

Also, I don't know anything about deities in this game, and neither does Tracy. Tracy has 2 ranks in Knowledge Religion, but religion isn't really a thing in Equestria.
What does it actually mean to serve a deity in this Game?

>summon an ebil
Idk what deities exist in The Game, but I at least wanted Tracy to make some contact with some Outsiders that matched her alignment, sort of like a "deal with the daemon" kind of scenario.
Is there a place I can read about ebil gods, rituals, and the outer planes for this game?

Tracy: *reads Necronomicon*
Trumpaladin: "What are you doing Tracy?"
Tracy: "reading up on the outer Gods"
Trumpaladin: "But that's heresy!"
*pulls out chain sword, ready to smite heretic*
Tracy: "Oh Flashy, I am a devotee of the Chaos God Slaanesh, Prince of Pleasure. God of Lust and Greed, among other things."
*bats eyes at Flashy*
*assumes a addictive pose*
"You want to see some of what I've learned?"
Trumpaladin: *backs away slowly*
*runs*
Tracy: *continues reading*
