Would taking a shit count as a major action in a combat round?

You should ask if getting your dumb elf-ass eaten is going to happen faster than Assrapist of Hamburglar killing you for making him fight again.

I find it funny how the story progresses depending on and according to whomever's available to post.

Well, honestly, if we stood around waiting on everyone to take a vote you'd all still be back at the stairwell.

Are we technically in combat or will it not initiate until the ooze wants one of us?

I swear, if I wasn't playing someone who follows a war god, I'd just walk into the north room, shut the door, and let it eat the elf.

If you were in combat I'd have posted an initiative order.

As it is the ooze will probably leave you alone until it's done eating corpses, or until one of you makes a sudden move (whichever comes first).

(There are no rules for how long does it take to dissolve a goblin so I'm kind of winging this)

Yet, I bet somewhere on a D&D site there is a post calling out the makers of the game for being less than thorough for this very reason. And then fifteen straight posts by chem majors saying they dissolved pig flesh in a mildly acidic gel solution and then broke it down by number of rounds, assuming a round is somewhere around 6 seconds. And then 20 posts of people arguing it's closer to 6.2 seconds. And then a lot of people bitching about how they shouldn't have given up on edition 3.5 and then 140 posts of people haranguing about how AD&D was the pinnacle of play and all these greenhorns should go to hell.

Games aren't about fun, Pang. They're about precision and reality.

Simulation is fun http://www.saxypunch.com/miscimg/emot-colbert.gif

Hmm... I think Pang's desire to murderize some adventurers may be continuously foiled by 4th Editions inherent difficulty achieving player character death.

Also, nice av/sig pang. Should have left in the "AH AH AH AH" though, because the only thing creepier than a Dracula robot is one that won't stop laughing.

I have the lowest-HP party member trapped behind a giant blob of acid

inherent difficulty, psh http://www.saxypunch.com/miscimg/emot-black101.gif

Cast a spell you fucking nonce you can seize initiative ARGH!

Where the hell is knk? We have some fucking slime to kill, goddamnit.

I've been working a lot lately.

That was CREEPY fast.

fuck yes improvised weapons rule

Next time, try throwing Mots. See what that does. (Alternatively, toss more tables. That was awesome.)

Holy crap that table did a lot of damage. Someone chuck a keg of ale at it next.

Oh yes by all means go stand in the beer puddle and try to lift a heavy thing.


By all means do

Well now. That certainly went poorly.

Ah right, forgot one keg was spilled already. Why isn't the puddle on the map, Pang?

Also, stop that Pang! You want them to die and yet you give them such clear warnings not to do something stupid that would amuse us all. I for one would have loved to see Gabriel try it. It could have been chronicled forever on the 1st page of this thread.

Gabriel Sledgehammer, deceased. Cause of death: Keg of orcish ale.

Keep splitting them, Deni. Maybe if you get them small enough you can keep one as a pet. :)

If he can find the requisite jellybeans, of course.

Because I have opted to shift most of my map-editing time into a full re-haul rather than continue to update the low-res map.

Hell

Yes

MY DWARF JUST GOT SO BADASS IT HURTS JUST TO LOOK AT IT. AVERT YOUR GAZE!

What the hell program is that, Pang? That's fucking magnificent.
