Musings of the Players

[Dracos]

You know, we're going to be a hard to hit party.  When you can point to the unarmed mage and say he's as nearly as hard to hit as a guy in scale mail and low man on the armor pool so far, that's a pretty sturdy group.

ANd that's the musing of the moment.

Random musing number 2:

I think I'm the only one playing a human.  I think I'm also the only one playing a guy character.

Dracos

[Merc]

You're probably the only human, but you're not the only guy. Rat's listed as a guy in his sheet >_>

I noticed, but I'm cool with that. I can cope with low AC PCs; there's more than one way to skin an adventurer!

See, this is where in real life I could grin manaically and make reference to all sorts of evil things. Oh well, I'll just have to settle with two words: Rust Monsters.

I'm both unsurprised and surprised. I figured Rat would be one of the girls and Merc would be the manly conquerer.

[Carthrat]

Huh.

My current musing is that I'm going to get to play with all sorts of weird utility spells.

Like 'Item'. :D

[Merc]

I'm both unsurprised and surprised. I figured Rat would be one of the girls and Merc would be the manly conquerer.

We had too many warriors I thought, which is where I would have played a guy. Actually, any class outside of thief and cleric I'd pick male. >_>

No female mages?

Damn, I half figured you might go for a Makoto mage or an Ami mage. Go go go Lighting Bolt at level 3! <_<

[Merc]

Nah. I have this odd thing against wizard classes. I'm not exactly sure why considering I'm playing a magical girl in your SM game, but whatever, I'm just odd that way I guess. ^_^;

*Snickers*

Joking aside, I'm so tempted to give you a Hammer of Thunderbolts or a Ring of Ice Control it's not funny.

EWWWW.

Anyhow, more seriously though, it actually helps a lot with the epic feel of it.  You can fling lots of small grunts alongside actual enemies without the worry that they'll be a significant change to the balance of the fight between the players and the enemies, thus making for more dramatic villians than "You encounter 3-7 villians" =P

This is sort of annoying to do when the weak enemies have a good chance of connecting and doing damage.

Dracos

[Anastasia]

That's true as well. Some cannon fodder that can be distracting but not a real threat is worth considering.

Gob gob?

[Carthrat]

Thing is, if you toss along 4 grunts alongside three ogres, that's 4 extra chances to roll a critical every round. ;_;

[Merc]

Plus more chance of getting flanked too ^_^

[Dracos]

meh. *shrugs*

If it truly ends up being a problem, Dune can deal with it.
