RP/Shitposting thread - D&D 3.5 base rules, subject to interpretation, review, and elaboration. Open for all to spectate, bantz, shitpost, or full-on play.
We begin this thread in anticipation of the weekend, where most of the party is gradually infiltrating the grand city of Cardishore. With disguises varying from an Emu, Barney the dinosaur, and a mexican clown,... as well as Fae who is entirely without costume, Trump, Tracy, and Infernius try to get a handle on whatever the hell is going on in Cardishore now or in general.
Meanwhile, Torcuil is working to get that damn cannon fixed on the Stray Cat. Meanwhile Stix returns (to the tower?) with not many answers, an over-sized acorn, and definitely no other surprises.
Meanwhile Thez,... poor forgotten and alone Thez who is babysitting the port so that none of the party's enemies see their departure and think "Wah ha ha ha! With them gone I will destroy their precious city!" I mean she gets it,... but still.

Let's see, the last thing Torc was doing is getting Mr. Snek registered...
"Gah, wait. If you're here..
how'd you die?"
>"Tell him he looks like a burger"
"Mr. Snek wants you to know you look like a burger"

The way Infernius would have been able to damage the most bra would have been to cast it on himself, because six boys were in a circle around him with a radius of 75 feet. The bots were split into two circles of 6 and 5 with radiuses of 75 feet

Yes, I'm going to write a fucking brief justifying the Leeroy Jenkins plan.
The Fairground is stated as being approximately 1800 feet in diameter, in presumably either a circular or square shape, and the bots are stated as being "mostly around the perimeter." The Bots are stated as having a movement speed of 55. This means they can move 220 feet in a round, maybe 275 feet if they have "run." And only 55 feet if they want to make a standard action. You know, like deploy a flame thrower. This means that it would take the bots four full rounds to come near enough to the center to be able to be within 75 of the center. 75 feet is the length of the flame. So if Infernius were in the center - assuming the stage is near the center, but a bit off, it would take four rounds before the bots got to him. And if Infernius were off center - let's say off center by 200 feet, it would take three turns for the nearest bots to get to him, and 5 turns for the furthest away bots to get to him. If some of the bots were not around the perimeter, and nearer the center - say, maybe there were by the stage - then these bots may have engaged Infernius after a single round, while others were three or four or five rounds away. Perhaps infernius could have killed or disabled these before the further away bots even approached.
Trumpaladin did not start in the center. He was nearer the perimeter because he was looking for the Cardishore equivalent of an Apple Store in the stalls. He spent a round at least running on Fae - speed 320 feet a round - and pounced on a bot, disabling it. The reason was obvious. He had to disable the bots, as he had no way of not confronting them eventually, and since Infernius was going to get himself killed, there was nothing else to do. Now, it must be understood that a circle with a diameter of 1800 feet has a radius of over 1 mile. Bots would be 470+ feet apart from each other on the perimeter if evenly spaced. As they near the center, the distance between bots decreases, but by the time Trumpaladin engages, probably only two bots would be within 220 feet of him, and able to engage in one round, with another two bots arriving on the round after that, and another one after that, or three rounds for 5 bots to close the range. Possibly more, but I am no good at Trigonometry. That's just the time to come close, not the time to also use a flame thrower
Now, the bots have more HP than Trumpaladin could possibly destroy in one round, especially with an AC that evidently is about 30. But Trumpaladin has a weapon specifically designed to damage objects that he never used before, and he has a feat he never used before to help with sundering. So he can sunder the flamethroing nozzles - with the help of Fae to close distance - essentially once per round, to disable the bots in that way. Trumpaladin also is built to the greatest extent possible to do well on saving throws. So it seems plausible that he could have dispatched 5 bots if they engaged at the rate it would take them to close the distance, rather than magically but not literally magically all closing the distance all at once.
>But the Lady was calling in reinforcements
The average police response time in the US in emergencies is 11 minutes. Cardishore is more technologically advanced, more secure, and smaller, so I think we can safely say they'd get there more quickly. But it would still take them a minute. 10 rounds. So Trumpaladin and Infernius could have dispatched most of the bots, and then opened smoke screen (trumpaladin has the flask), open a dimension gate, fly away, run away and hide in a house, or figured out something in the few rounds.
There is no fucking way at all that Earthquake could possibly have affected Trumpaladin or anyone not in Infernius's circle. It has a radius of 80 feet, and the distance from Infernius to the bots around him alone was 75 feet. There is no reason at all to believe that Trumpaladin and his 75 foot radius of bots overlapped

I'm not arguing or anything, but how do you know this much about the distance and proximity of things? It all seemed much closer together to me.

Unless Infernius were intentionally trying to target Trumpaladin, there is no fucking way he would have been within the radius of the Earthquake

He gets up.
“I don’t suppose the road there passes by the port?”
