    Nope, still here!

    PbP games just go this way man. Don't worry about it. I once had to be away from my Clone Wars game for like... two weeks this one time and I still have all my players.

    Damn. I completely fucked up. That power I just used was from the other hag on the page above the Bog Hag. So fuck it, you guys get 100 bonus XP for dealing with it, and we'll call it an encounter power that doesn't recharge.

    Contingency Orders for our nice DM... which will most likely apply to any encounter.

    However, JACK will always get priority for these powers since his freakin charges are so nasty. So Jack, remember that Aziz can do these two things:

    If Aziz is the subject of a ranged attack he will use Rallying Deflection (and allow Jack... but if it's not possible for Jack to do so, then Dardek) to charge the attacker. Another good reason to stay within 5 squares of me.

    And... if someone provokes an opportunity attack and he is adjacent to the enemy making the attack -- it'd be constrictor A this time 'round -- he will use Shielding Retaliation.

    Both powers are noted in the sheet.

    That area attack the hags used was from the MM entry for Howling Hag, not Bog Hag (which these are). I messed up while reading them. Rather than try and backtrack everything, I'm just giving everyone a bonus 100xp and promise they won't do it again.

    Yeah, the oni mage has a bangin' bluff bonus and got a 19 on the roll as well.

    The trees won't try to hurt you... as long as you don't try and gather firewood.

    Edgil gets to spend two healing surges... so between the two of them he'll get the hit points that a single surge would grant him because of the hags' presence.

    If Edgil hits zero this round, Aziz will use Fearless Rescue to save him.

    Damn, another nice round for Dardek!

    Oh, I also forgot to note the damage that Aziz took during his turn, DVG.

    Aziz should have 9 less hp.

    Maybe we could drop one or two of the hags first.

    Then again, with the way Jack has been rolling he may very well lay out the one adjacent to him this round.

    Also I have something special I want to use on our Oni Mage villain once it's time to gang up on him.

    Something menacing.

    What I'm saying here is that Oni Mage is fucked if I can get off a villain's menace after we handle these freaking hags. We needs our healing.

    We're not letting this dick get away.

    That's why my vote is to ice the hags first.

    Unleash Dardek on him for the marking and whatnot.

    Then spike the dude with daily powers like he's in the end zone.

    Also, forget not the Bravura Presence. So many attacks!

    if we keep dardek next to him, he will provoke OAs from most of his powers (ranged and area ones at least). unless he shifts and turns invisible again. none of us are trained in perception it seems, so my guess is that we will lose him again.

    but, im not against stacking attacks on the hags. the faster we drop them, the better off we will be in the long run.

    Come on now, Negative Nancy.

    We can take those hags down within two rounds. Easily.

    And then it'll be time to hit that fucking Oni Mage so hard he won't have a chance to get away.

    Thought that it would be a good time to bust out this power. If I can hit with the prone attack each turn, then Jack (and any other attackers) is guaranteed an attack of opportunity each round and it keeps the mage in place.

    Also, Invisible Castle seems to like me now. :D

    I think standing up from prone doesn't provoke OA's in this edition.

    Oh. Looks like your right. Hrm...

    Only a minor action to stand up too. Bah. I was at least hoping it would stop him from standing up, moving back, and attacking. But it looks like he can still do all of that without provoking.

    Balls.

    he dropped that hag to 0 hp with his extra attack from Aziz' Brash Assault.

    now if there was any way to get some AC penalties on that Oni Mage and some attack bonuses on Aziz for Villain's Menace... :P

    that power is like teamwork incarnate

    hmm... but i might start things out on his ass with my daily that denies him the use of action points and recharge powers for a turn though

    I thought it would be better not to kill the Hag on my turn, seeing as the Mage goes right after. With all of his allies dead, I thought he might run again. Though I guess he still may. :P

    Nah Jack already used it. Plus its a free action to use it, not an immediate interrupt sadly.

    I have powers that can slow or immobilize him, I'm just concerned with balancing between that and lighting him on fire so that he doesn't regenerate.

    By the way, I believe I fucked up when describing the Oni Mage initiatlly. He's no Troll. An ogre, I think.

    Regardless, your inclinations tell you fire may not be necessary to fell this foe.
