Overland Challenge - Beowuuf

[Beowuuf]

Despite taking the herb book for exactly this kind of avantage, I'm thinking harvesing it might be dangerous.

Beowuuf will avoid the plants as best he can. I think the plan would be a stealth move to C-3 through B-3's corner.


Do I have still have an activity point left? Can I call a power word: eye for 0 activity then range search quickly C-2?

That way, if all is well, I'll put all my activity next round in to stealth and moving to the other corner of C2 ready to step in to and through C-3 next round.

I might blow a round range searching further so I can crank up the speed soon though!

[Aguila Saber]

Yes, you have in fact 1 activity left. How much Mana into the spell ?

[Beowuuf]

3 points please, for four rounds!

[Aguila Saber]

Post on previous page updated with result.

[Beowuuf]

Hmm.

I think a stealth movement to the next square south at +3, and a ranged search to the east. That's my full activity, right?

[Aguila Saber]

Depends on which part of the square you want to end up (NW, NE, SW, SE) and on points put into the Ranged Search.

[Beowuuf]

Since I'm not searching that part, I think best to only go in to the first square, so that's 2 activity to move, 3activity in to stealth, and the full four for a ranged search so that's my 7 + 2

Beowuuf keeps looking to the EAST while walking SOUTH. Beowuuf notices a patch of large plants to the EAST. They are fairly close (G3) to the human-like creatures he spotted earlier-

There is nothing else of interest within your view.

[Beowuuf]

Search the square I am on for traps/hidden enemy, then stealth move south towards my friend/foe. Whisper another power word: stelath for three mana first. That should be the same activity as last time.

Hmmm... you haven't spotted anything to the SOUTH. You've made to ranged searches to the EAST.

The natives you spotted (who are not necessarily hostile by the information you have been given) are to the EAST. Not to the SOUTH.

So moving EAST (towards the natives) or SOUTH ?

[Beowuuf]

Oh, I was getting confused I guess Numbering left to right and lettering left to right, not the other way around I think threw me

I thought I had searched south originally and spotted someone coming towards me from @g3. So I had moved south one, while searching east to make sure I was not flanked saw the plants. I did not notice the two were related until re-reading.

Umm, yes, if I can move east towards the natives please

When moving forwards Beowuuf notices a patrolling sqaud of four annihilators at square D5 (Roughly South-East to your currentl location). They are of a type you have not seen before.

None of the four enemies seems to have noticed you.

[Beowuuf]

Stealth +3 and move south-west to get closer to the annihilator group behind any cover.

Not liking the unknown enemy! I'd rather sneak passed them - what direction do they seem to be travelling? Also, am I in danger from the south/

Gah, phone call - first of two tonight, I guess move over

[Aguila Saber]

They are moving around within "D-5"

If you want to avoid them I'd say you should move north-east towards D-2 and search from that square. That will put you out of range from them (if you move to north side of D-2).

If you want to avoid them, then do not move closer to them, you will simply spend more rounds within view distance. They are patrolling looking for ... hmmm likely someone just like you.

[Beowuuf]

Ok, I will keep moving that way to D-2. I guess the idea of moving closer was if they were going to be finding me anyway, I may as well stealth strike with high strength to kill one of them If I can avoid them and move on, all the better.
