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!

Tracy is still cleaving her way through hordes of shambling flesh towards the Giant skeleton, still cursing on about the unicorn she ought to be killing instead.

Oh just get to the Giant already

Trumpaladin has commanded the Generals and the cute sex horse to target the giant with ranged weapons, while he readies an attack against the Giant. Or he kills shit on the way to the giant, if the demon horse is taking the scenic route

Ask GM.

No ride bys. A ride by attack means that every time we attack we are "charging" and therefor only get one attack. Even with trippling the dice roll that means I only get less than half as much damage as I could if I slashed with my magic great sword four times (unless the entire damage set is multiplied by three, then maybe it might be worth it). Tracy has an AC of 26 or maybe higher, and Trumpaladin has an AC of like ~33, Tracy has 155 HP and Trumpaladin has ~104. That damned giant is a CR 11, has 200 HP and 24 AC. Don't be a pussy. After the first charge, stay in range, and kill it. It could hit us with a rock if we rode by anyways

So for simplicity, what is Tracy's line of attack, as that determines for her and Trump.
>>37227
Torcuil and Trollestia have only faced aquatic zombies and ghouls so far, which she can easily dispense of in waves from her undead turning, let alone Torcuil's magic.

Oh yeah, its fine. Trollestia can airwalk all around and on top of them, the frog army can pick them off from range, Torcuil can be as creative as he wants,... you guys got this. There is a weird set of torches in the distance, but the docks are solid.

How close is "in range"? She can't just spot on a dime.
>>37231
>what is Tracy's line of attack
I was going to make a Spirited Charge with a lance, to do triple damage on the first ride-by attack, then go ahead and try to trip it with her dancing chain, if not set on fire.
I thought once it's legs were taken out and it fell over incapacitated, it could be finished off with Lay On Hands.

Well, I would say spirited charge with a Lance, and then stay in square and fight it with magic swords until it is dead or we are forced to withdrawal...

>>37230
That's going to be extremely difficult... It may be difficult enough even to keep Trumpaladin from being obligated to fight on behalf of Tracy
The easiest thing to do is just let her be killed, then resurrect her in the entertron. That way Tracy may be satisfied, Trumpaladin has fullfilled his covanent, Trollestia lives, and you keep your steed and ally. I actually had Trumpaladin go and collect blood from her so she could be resurrected if killed. And I was intending him to resurrect her anyways

>>37234
>>37234
Reeeeeee! Let me hit it with my sword! I want to be able to do damage too. Also, I am not sure the Trip attack works in that way

>Can't spot on a dime
Transfer all of your momentum into the giant through the lance. Seriously, you think you can spot on a dime in the air in a ride by attack and charge back the opposite direction? Physics do not work that way. And if it does, then by the same logic she can stop right next to the giant

She lands with the Spirited Charge, but distancing from the creature quickly doesn't seem possible, unless abandoning the lances.
Now, did you mean to essentially use the chain as a trip-wire?

Its something low to the water, as the light from the torches - there's only 3 visible at most- reflects from the water. It drifts silently toward the docks as the water zombies and ghouls feelbly maintain their occupation.

The lance isn't magick, so let it stick in its leg.
Release the chain and let it dance all over it.

I meant to make a trip attack with the chain. That's an option, right? If not, just lash at its legs, or try to stick into its carcass and pull it over.

The Giant takes several stabs and slashes, causing visible damage but not slowing it in the slightest. It swings for Tracy/Trump.

The Giant's crude mobility is not sufficient to land a blow against either Trump or Tracy, its arm/weapon swooshing by through the air.

I was on an iphone with a cracked screen and a shitty browser in a bar an hour away from home when I was doing this last night, that's my excuse for not casting obvious spells like "protection from evil" or what have you...

>>37257
The d&d spell is called "imprisonment," although I think it's one level above your caster level. It's a scary spell...

Are you sure? Where is it listed?

If that's true I'll hold Fae back then. Next round. I hope to get her teeth and claws enchanted eventually.

But a bite attack can be bludgeoning damage. It can be piercing, slashing, or bludgeoning

I wondering why the Devourers hadn't attacked yet. They could be wreaking havoc atm, since they already got inside the tower.
It makes me question what (((their))) strategy really is. It can't be this simple.
