prison changes a desperate man

There's nowhere I can't reach.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

I still want bouncyass image rotated 90 degrees. So I can tap dat ass.

I was speaking idiomatically.

It's quite possible to make a window one can shoot through but not climb through. Don't you people have castles in your country?

Oh wait...

Anyway, should we survive this I'm officially retiring from cunning plan making.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Turn Undead is probably going to make our moves irrelevant if it hits.

FELIPE NO

More than likely. Pang, if everything's dead when my actual turn rolls around (As in dead and not moving, not just technically dead) then I'll make the same movement but save the spell for when something busts through the window.

Assuming there'll be enough dead things to swamp us at some point, who's up for retreatng to the kitchen? There's only two entrances and the most important thing is to limit how many zombies can get at us at once.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

It's not powerful enough to kill everything outright, but it'll probably throw them back a space or two.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

One would hope that Pang would assume I adjusted my aim as a result, rather than us all waiting for him to post in between our turns.

Turned out not to really be an issue anyway.

Haha, I didn't realise that was a wall. My monitor here is really shit.

So hey Lurk, what are ya doin way over there?

I was speaking idiomatically.

I bet Pang isn't showing the extent of the east wall on the map because he's building up for an awesome revelation of a wonderfulcandycritterpack giantinfectedzombiehorde.

Most amazing jew boots

I don't show the entire map at once because zooming out that far would reduce the PC tokens to about 3x3 pixels.

FELIPE NO

I got the green zombie handled, btw, everybody else concentrate on dat purp zombie.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

And then Argy was a zombie.

Stop crushing my dreams, Pang!

What are the chances of there being, say, a pitcher of orange juice or some fresh limes or some equally acidic beverage behind the counter?

How ya doing, buddy?

Trying to avoid getting bitten. Getting a couple drinks. The usual.

edit: I figure I'm going to try out that dragonbreath trick if I can. Since fire seems to be these guys' weakness and I think we should exploit their weaknesses wherever possible.

Fresh citrus should be rare in what is essentially a loose approximation of feudal Europe, and I don't expect an inn in a relatively tiny village to have imported any.

Zombies are only weak to radiant damage (the kind you put out with Turn Undead). Shin just got lucky on one of his attack rolls.

Zombies get owned with all criticals.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Assuming the next group of zombies will be hilariously large, am I reading my staff of expansion power right in thinking it works on your attack the following turn to when you use it? So in one turn I power it up and then the next turn fire off the biggest acid arrow or flame burst evar?

And in the case of acid arrow, would just the splash burst be expanded (If at all)?

How ya doing, buddy?

The expansion effect only works on bursts, and Acid Arrow's splash effect isn't a burst, technically. Flame Burst works fine, though.

The expansion effect triggers on the next burst effect before the end of your next turn, so you can use the attack itself on the same turn or on the next one.

FELIPE NO

hey Shin we're actually fighting three zombies and there's no guarantee that the next wave will break through this round, but that's ok.

Additional Spam:
If you get more criticals, though, that'd be fuckin sweet

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Yeah, I did think about that but I wanted to post before I left work and if you kill one then the doors fly open, it's rather a waste of a burst attack. You guys'll be fine I'm sure and it's not like the barricades have slowed the zombies down much so far is it?

How ya doing, buddy?

Oh.

Well, it also does area damage instead of single-enemy damage, and I don't have any other skills aside from Turn Undead that hit multiple enemies.
