Fire Emblem: The Crumbling Courts (Chapter 1: Clue Hunting)

[GenetiXientist]

I actually healed you already; remember, if I don't delay, i go first on this map.

[GenetiXientist]

I already healed Riot,( I go first on this map if I don't delay.)

[Dais]

Always busy, Aran patches up Riot with the Heal staff, healing Riot by 6 Hp.

Aran +12 Exp, +1 Staff Mastery, -1 Heal use
Riot +6 Hp

Meant to update in your move earlier GX, sorry.
EDIT: Also in case it wasn't clear all three enemy Armors are currently situated on Columns/Pillars/whatever I called them before. I don't remember if this was the case in the games but they cost Cavalry 3 movement to cross in this game. At some point I will probably edit some sort of terrain list into the third post with bonuses and movement costs.

I've made my move..................... I should be on S5

I've made my move..................... I should be on S5

Spirit's turn hasn't come up in the order because people before him like Askia and snooman haven't had a chance to give orders or wait yet. You're not the only one to place an order that hasn't been followed through yet.

ah right
I just keep getting confused because "Move order" hasn't made sense much recently @_@

[Askia]

move seras from U8 to U3

[FuriousSquid]

Alear moves T5 to S3 (and really hopes she gets a kill this time- Axe Knight, I'm looking at you...)

[snoomanwaff]

Siginak moves from V7 to V3

[Dais]

Hmm... looks like I just need a command from Pala in order to finish the turn (and here I was procrastinating anyway). I'll update the map with all the other moves in the meantime.

[Palamedes]

Shit shit thought I had made a move command already and I was gone for a little while before today anyways so it probably woudn't have mattered.

I obviously hold and say something terrible about the sword knight's mother.

Sorry for pseudo holding up the game.

Enemy's Turn!

Axe Knight O5-> R4, Attack Cline with Iron Axe
Sword Knight N4->Q3, Attack Blue with Iron Sword

(RN 48, 35) The Axe Knight hacks away at Cline and does 8 damage.
(RN 94, 12) Cline charges to stab the Knight but the Knight pulls his horse out of the way of Cline's strike and Cline end sup stabbing the floor.

Cline +1 Exp, -8 Hp

(RN 80, 24) The Sword Knight charges Blue and slashes at him, hitting for 6 damage.
(RN 98, 66) Blue just barely misses the Knight as he rides by.

Blue +1 Exp, -6 Hp

Player's Turn! Can't believe Blue missed...

[causticlyOptimitious]

Yes well that can sometimes ha-BURNINATE!

Blue: Attack Axe Knight with Iron Sword

That'll take 'im down to 4, and I'll survive with 1 if he hits me. brb runnin numbers to see if we can take Mr. Swordie out this turn, or if I'mma need some healin. Yeah, we can smoke this dude pretty easily. Alera's got low(ish) accuracy against him, and Riot can't do enough, but either Cline or Spirit, with ranged support, can make the kill. I suggest Cline, since he can do it all in one hit, avoiding the counterattack. Also he's got less exp atm.

[Palamedes]

Might be better to just run. We've got the area clogged and healing you where you stand'll just put our healer at risk (archer) or one of us at risk (what with the mage).

I think we're better off waging a war of attrition with the knights for now. Not sure if everyone else disagrees.

Me I can still take a hit or two, and I'm particular towards attacking the sword knight.

[causticlyOptimitious]

If the archer does come out to attack Aran, he'll only do 10 damage, not enough for a kill, and we can steamroll him before he gets a chance to retreat. I think it's pretty clear at this point that he intends to sit back behind the Armors and ping anyone who tries to get through.

[Palamedes]

Yeah, but remember, you probably can't survive a hit from all three attackers, which is what you'll get standing there.

Dias has also made it clear that the enemies are somewhat smart, so there is a decent chance the archer'll come out and kill you if he gets a chance.

[causticlyOptimitious]

...We're taking out both of the Knights this turn, the Archer/Armor combo isn't moving, and the Mage is out of range. Honestly, I think I'd be safe even without healing for this turn. If I'm wrong, well, I guess I'll just have to be a backseat driver for the rest of this map. Trust me, it's not that big a deal.

[Palamedes]

True enough, but part of me wants to keep this as close to real FE as possible, which means not dying (since we don't actually die :P).

Also how are we taking both knights out? Or are you counting on us moving forward and not getting smashed by mages and armors?

[causticlyOptimitious]

*sigh*

Seras (or Sig; they're pretty much interchangeable for now) moves to T4 and finishes off the Axe Knight. The other moves to R4 and hits the Sword Knight; either Cline or Spirit can then finish off the Knight (with Cline being preferred). If they decide to leave their marks, then yes, the Armors can score a kill. We still have enough firepower to roll over the rest of the map even minus a character. I'm willing to take that risk, and if everybody else is too busy pussyfooting around and hangs me out to dry, I can handle that too. I'm not changing my action either way.

[Palamedes]

Herpderp Blue can double the axe knight can't he? Yep.

Man this wouldn't have been an arguing issue if I liked doing all the math. Which I don't, so thanks.

I have no real issues, and if push comes to shove we still have that vulnary.

[Red709]

you guys realize I can just bait the mage if necessarry right

that's part of a myrmidon's job too

baiting things into TRYING to hit him

[Red709]

his other jobs are doubling almost everything and criticals

[Palamedes]

This early in the game hoping people won't hit you is liable to get you killed, especially with a shitty defence. I mean it'll work if we can make sure there's maybe at most one or two other guy who can/will attack you and probably also miss.

Then again it's not like death is permenant, our only punishment is getting left out of sweet, sweet XP for the level.

Also I'll be assed if I'm doing the math to figure out if there actually is a problem because I should be sleeping.

except siginak, seras and I literally do have the highest evades

Shaman and Axewielders will likely not hit me that much is true though

[Askia]

Seras moves to T4 and attacks R4
