It is pretty freaking rough, yeah :\

On the plus side, several of them are down and nobody on our team has gone down permanently. Yet.

On the down side, this is way too big of a group for one guy to keep alive, even with some bardic greatness help x_x

Well considering that you started out with X on their side and X+Werejackal on your side, which isn't much of an advantage, I'd say you're doing quite well...

Agreed there.

I am worried about how long I can keep this up, though.

Hey, all. I'm not back yet, unfortunately. The network at my place was broken when the router died due to power surges after the power company performed some 'maintenance' *coughhackspew*. A new router has been installed, but the signal is so weak that it won't allow me to post ... -_- I must await further developments, there. Currently, I am posting from my sister's place, but obviously our time zones are so far apart that you've beaten me to the punch. Kuzan, if you continue to NPC Lia, I might like to suggest boosting her with Displacer Form on your next turn. While using me as the big gun is fine, I am the glass cannon ... Displacer Form will allow me to continue casting, while simultaneously making Lia less of a target. Or else you might consider flinging Mass Fly at some of our folks to increase our maneuverability.

I recall a discussion I had a long time ago, in another game, on whether you could Close Wounds yourself.

I don't actually recall most of it, but I think the answer was "Yes", so we're going with that ruling for this battle.

Change of suggestions ...

Provided Lia makes the save, you might have her fire Magic Missile at Shadow Kuzan. Unless I'm mistaken, it should pierce all of his buffs, and it can't miss. If he's only at 1 hp now, one good volley of Magic Missiles should finish him off. Just ... keep me alive, 'kay?

You're fireballing yourself this round.

Evil Kuzan's not at 1 hp :/ he's only DOWN 1 hp. He's practically at full.

Blasting him with anything is pretty pointless unless several people are doing it.

As for keeping you alive, I got it covered. We just need to kill your evil half.

One more point.

Like I said in the main thread, now that the enemy ranks are thinning, put serious pressure on shadow Kuzan. This isn't just a freaking out thing, this is serious. As long as the healer is unscathed, he's free to heal whoever he wants. If the healer's hurting, he's likely to heal himself first. There is no target right now that has higher priority, especially now that at least half the shadows are down.

That's exactly why Shadow Harris came stalking me. He got an opening and seized it. This could very well come down to who loses the healer first and I'm taking more damage than I can keep up with while keeping everyone else alive, too.

Also, Chaz, if you could kindly move so Fassahd gets a clear path to Shadow Kuzan, that would be lovely.

On it.

I didn't run last round because there was no way I could reach Shadow Kuzan in one round. Now I've got a clear path to get in his grill. If he moves, he'll probably avoid an AoO, but if he doesn't double move I can probably catch him and smite the living crap out of him. If he does double move, he's not casting this round.

I can charge Shadow Kuzan this round, but I'll take an AoO from Wascha, but unless anyone has a better idea it could be worth it....

****edit**** scratch that Doc just ninja'ed me and blocked Sascha's line of sight. ****

Confused spectator piping in. GM's feel free to tell me to keep my trap shut. Looks like you just moved 6 squares (3 diagonals is 4 squares, plus 2 verticals) so 30', for a single move. Does Tomas have 30' or 20' movement? If it's 30', you've got another standard action. Either smack Goatee-Kuzan once, or ready to smack him if he casts.

If you do have <30' movement, I think you can charge Kuuzan. Mirror-Jervis is unconscious and helpless creatures don't block a charge, and the floor between you and Kuzan-bar is clear of treasure, miraculously.

(And Nazuk has Mobile Spellcasting, if I'm not mistaken, so he CAN double-move and cast.)

(I'm out of clever ways to indicate alternate reality and cloned doubles of people, so I'll stop here... ;))

Huh, so I do. Thanks for the catch, Gonzo! That'll teach me to do math this early.

If anyone else can get over to whack evil me or shoot evil me (Otto, Andre?) or otherwise put pressure, that would be excellent. The healer is likely to try and pick himself up first if he's really hurting.

Be aware that he is most likely going to tumble and move away on his turn, so the ranged strikers have the best chance of dealing with him consistently.

Hopefully some of the conspiracy will turn attention on him now.

Also be aware that he can't be grappled.

Or tripped. Otherwise Loup would have gone for him. Lily was about to try and dizzy him, but got a little sidetracked. Now you see just how irritating your foes find you. :wink:
