| DANG!
new rule still not complete.... goog thing is they shouldn't affect any of the games as all the changes are re warlord advancement and magic items.
So if you play your match, feel free to wait before you roll your items or make level up decisions. | | Join the Eternal Skirmish Campaign.

Will changes be retroactive? I lost track of what the final decision was on attack roll advancement but if that changes will it affect our current warlords for this week.. agh I'm so confused :). Also it sounded like we were going to add more feats for fighting warlords? Did that get nulled? Again, will that be retroactive? So many questions and you're so busy, but personally I'd rather not schedule my match 'til I know what's going on.
AngryIrish, is that okay with you? I should have pretty good availability evenings this week and evenings this weekend as well.

Yeah must be lost in the ether somewhere. I'm with you on not too late on Friday or too early on Saturday or Sunday. I'm EST so an hour ahead of you. I watch Battlestar Galactica on Friday nights at 10PM, so I would be up for 7PM CST (8PM EST) until 9PM CST (10PM EST), if we weren't through could continue some time on Saturday or Sunday, or just wait and do it all on Saturday or Sunday. I may try to squeeze in a live game on Saturday, if the wife doesn't barricade me in the house. Otherwise I'm free other than trying to schedule my Pool B match with Baneknight. | | | |

| REPORT: Richard II (CE) vs. Adept (LE)
Winning Warlord: Gharag II, Tiefling Captain (Richard (CE)) BG's Warband: Tiefling (+1 shield he can't use, +1 shield of swift flight he also can't use), Orc Champion (ring of shadow), Red Samurai (ring of immune elec), Abyssal Maw x2, Orc Warrior, Kethith the Deathlock. Rubble assembly, torture chamber, corridor, spike stone cave. Warlord XP: +1000 XP & +1500 CP (5250 exp total, 7750 campaign points total) Warlord Leveling: Leveling to be completed after new rules posted. Lieutenant: 500 exp to Kethith the Deathlock (2500 exp total) Lieutenant Leveling: None. Magic Item Gained: (maj) +1 shield of Duality Magic Item Lost: (med) +1 shield of Swift Flight []
Losing Warband: Talla the Cleric of Nerull (Adept (LE)) Gorn's Warband: Talla, Chraal, Efreeti, Azer, Small pack of goblin skirmishers. Rubble assembly, treasure room, shrine, mushroom tangle. Warlord XP: +250 XP & +250 CP Warlord Leveling: none Magic Item Gained: +1 armor Magic Item Lost: None
Summary:
Adept won tile init, and proceeded to box me in with a mushroom tangle, but I repayed the favor with the spike stones which forced his chraal to take 10 damage to engage me.
I won init on round two, and managed to roast most of his skirmisher and hit the chraal with the red sam's bw, although the chraal made the save. Still 20 damage though. I then had a maw attack the remaining skirmisher and dropped it. His azer missed my maw and his efreeti and chraal smacked my red sam around, but left his cleric exposted. I proceeded to base it with the champ and move the tiefling within 6 (important).
He won init round three, but didn't have many options. He took an aoo from the red sam with the efreeti and smacked the champ for 20 and then followed with the chraal for 10. I had cast cold resistance on the champ earlier. But no crits and now it was my champ's turn to swing away. I rolled a 19 and obliterated his cleric by dealing 50 damage. But we kinda forgot about the life force scenario. It's entirely possible she'd have lived. and the goblins may have as well. Some of em anyway.
Anyway, level up info and magic items will be added after the new rules are posted.
Victory Points:
Richard II (CE): 125/125=100 Adept (LE): 0/125=0 | |

| OldCoast (LE) vs Tullywi (LG)
Victory Points: Tullywi (149) Oldcoast (100)
Winning Warlord: tullywi (LG) Warband: Garret Hilltop Cleric of Yondalla, 2x Skullclan Hunter, Couatl, Aramil, and Lidda Adventurer Experience gained: +1000XP, +1500 Campaign Pts. Leveling: NA Lieutenant XP: NA Lieutenant leveling:NA Magic item gained: WoHoo I think we can roll again.(Med).Potion of Immune Acid Magic item lost: NA
Defeated Warlord: OldCoast(LE) Warband: - Gorn Skullsplitter, Beholder, 2 Zhents, Direguard. Experience Gained: 250 XP & 250 Campaign Pts. Leveling options: NA Magic item gained: WoHoo I think we get to roll again.(Med).Collar of Cleave Magic item lost: (Min).+1 Shield
I was able to eeck this one out. Having conceal on a beholder is just wrong. Between that and the incorporeal on the Direguard, I had 7 hits nullified. I again lost a Couatl by taking an aoo with 20 hit points left when OldCoast's Direguard rolled a 19 with a +1 Keen Weapon. Fortunately for me, Skullclan hunters with flight 8 can be tough opponents. Sure they might miss conceal checks 5 or 6 times, but they just keep hanging around.
The turning point in the game came when his Beholder failed morale and I turned my attention to Gorn. I think my units were happy to find an opponent who wasn't concealed. I was able to get him down to 55 hit points when my Couatl attacked and poisoned him. Next round, he takes the 5 damage and routes. Everyone hit him to bring him down to 5 hit points. Gorn lasted a long time because he made at least 4 Life Force rolls to keep him in the match.
Good playing OldCoast. The log file is now uploaded. | | | |

| I was doing some advance scouting on my opponent for this week (looking at log files), and I found an error with his stats.
In Bleed Black (CE)'s week 28 game, his cursed spirit was eliminated early in his match. This makes it ineligable for Lt. XP since it was not around at the end of the battle. From the Eternal Campaign Rules: Creatures eligible to receive lieutenant experience are limited to those creatures that have survived the battle without having been eliminated form the match and meet all the requirements to become a lieutenant as detailed in the Warlords section.
The remaining units that Narrack had on the board at the end of the battle were himself, the Ogre Ravager, and two orc warriors.
This would put the Cursed Spirit Lt back to 500 XP and give 500 XP to a yet to be named Orc Warrior. | | | |

| I'm still not clear on wether the changes are retroactive.. in my case, does Bertha get one more feat and the second attack? Or will our older warlords now be slightly nerfed if they passed those levels during version 1? If they do get the upgrades, does that happen this week?

I also agree with waiting until week 31 to gain new "missed benefits" as Zippy eloquently called it. I'm sure AngryIrish agrees too . At this point some people have already played games, and it's midweek, in the higher-level tier everyone's been preparing around current stats, and haven't had to worry about new stats. Having said that, I'm pretty freakin' stoked that Bertha gets a second attack.. albeit a pathetic one .
I'm not as deep inside it as Galnew and some of you others are, are there cases where feats or spells have CHANGED? If there are such cases, that will mean that some people that have them could theoretically want to change them.. and in the spirit of fairness, probably means that everyone should be allowed to change. This is a hard call to make though.
Tkort.
Btw.. did any magic item powers CHANGE? A specific note of changes should be put up eventually so that people know if their items (and feats and spells) don't act the same way anymore hehe

I like the ongoingness of the EC .. the sortof powerful upper echelons and the lowly new warlords scrambling to make a go of it.. I'd rather keep Bertha going and all the other 30 (or almost) week old warlords as well. When they adapt to the new rules, there's really no reason to scrap them. The rules are set up to promote self-rejuvenation in a way.. I like the idea.. and personally think we should keep it going as long as we can :). Having said that, I think I might actually start my first new Warlord in 30 weeks next week.. .

| REPORT: Bleed Black (CE) vs. jjbeezer (LG)
Winning Warlord: Narrack, Gnoll Sergeant(BleedBlack (CE)) Narrack's Warband: Narrack, Ogre Ravager, Cursed spirit, Orc Tiles: Rubble assembly, mushroom tange, magic circle shrine,Hall of Heroes. Warlord XP: +1000 XP & +1500 CP (32250 exp total, 7750 campaign points total) Warlord Leveling: Lvl 3 (+1 lvl, +1attack, +10 hp)Feat chosen: Cleave Lieutenant: ScarFace the Orc Warrior 500 exp Lieutenant Leveling: 1000 exp total (+1 lvl, +1attk, +10hp) Magic Item Gained: (med) +1 Frost weapon Magic Item Lost: None
Losing Warband: Clank the Warforged Fighter Clanks Warband: Clank, halfling veteran, man at armsx2, Skullclan hunter, medium earth elemental. Tiles: Assembly tile 3, Jagged wastelands, mushroom tangle,Spike Stones cave. Warlord XP: +250 XP & +250 CP Warlord Leveling: none Magic Item Gained: (min) Potion of DR Magic Item Lost: (med) +1 Frost weapon
Summary: I think i won almost every initiative from tile palcement till the end. (I think clank won 2 initaitves towards the end when it didnt much matter) After are tiles where palced my men headed for the magic circle located in the middle of the board. Clanks men had to weed through a mushroom tangle patch but made it to the center. Clank moved up killing a orc warrior leaving him open to the Ogres charge. After creating a flank with a orc the Ogre cahrged in adding smite hitting clank for 35 damage forcing him to route. Narrack was feeling confident untill he realized that the Medium earth elemental could burrow into a flanking position letting the skullclan side step into a flank and smack the ogre for 20 pnts of damage. Luckily his second attack missed so he was not forced to make a MC yet. After Clank routing and his skull clan missing its chacne to make my ogre route. i ron winit again and killed the flanking earth elemental and then eventually make the skull clan route. It was just a matter of cleaning up after that. Clank only having CR of 1 really hurt him. He misserd 2-3 init rolls becasue of it and couple MC's. Also Clanks men did not seem to do to well with the life force ability. I think he only made the LF ability once, where as my orcs amde it numorous times.

| REPORT: Tullywi(CG) vs. Zippy(CG)
Winning Warlord: Rodus (Zippy/CG) Rodus's Warband: Rodus the Copper Samurai (+1 sonic resistant armor of blinding), Ebisu the Goliath Barbarian, Eberk, Elf Warrior (Bag of Tricks), Xeph Warrior, Celestial Pegasus, Ragnara / Assy Rubble, TR Room, Tort Chamber, Magic Circle Shrine Warlord XP: +1000 XP / +1500 CP Warlord Leveling: +1 Level (4th), +10HP, +1CR, Add Feat for 3rd Level Lieutenant: 500 XP to Pusill the Elf Warrior Lieutenant Leveling: none Magic Item Gained: (Med) Ring of Minor (10) Cold Resistance Magic Item Lost: None
Losing Warlord: Konn (Tullywi/CG) Konn's Warband: Cleric of Kord (+1 Armor of Swift Flight []), Thri-Kreen Barbarian (+2 Armor), Celestial Pegasus, 2 Xeph Warriors Support: Wild Elf Raider, Medium Astral Construct, 2 Elf Warriors Tiles: Assembly Tile Rubble, Magic Circle, Zig Zag, Treasure Room Warlord XP: +250 XP / +250 CP Warlord Leveling: none Magic Item Gained: (Min) Potion of Minor (10) Sonic Resistance [][] Magic Item Lost: none
Summary
With a few discontinuous wall sections in mid arena, Konn sent his forces within striking distance right away. Rodus chose to form a defensive wall to give Eberk time for a few buffs, and to try to draw Konn's forces into flankable positions. Konn took the initiative early on, and sent his construct forward to occupy Rodus' forawd elements. The construct made 3 life force rolls and would not go away. Konn used his fear spell to scare Ragnara off, and the bugman paralyzed the goliath barbarian right away, allowing itself and the pegasus to quickly crush it.
Meanwhile, Rodus had picked off one elf warrior, and Pusill his trusty Elf Warrior had unleashed one wolf from the bag of tricks. After more maneuvering, the bugman struck Eberk a critical and fatal blow, while Rodus jumped at the opportunity to flank Konn between himself and his pegasus. Konn immediately summoned his pegasus to help him, while the bugman was still busy mopping up Rodus' lesser troops.
Rodus finally siezed the tide of battle and his pegasus routed Konn, who fled without pause, taking with him the commander-bound construct. Rodus' pegasus had tapped into the arena's strong life force, and was struck down repeatedly, perhaps a half dozen times, always to rise again. Rodus and his pegasus routed Konn's flying horse, then endured repeated bugman attacks. Rodus eliminated the last Xeph and fired a steady stream of arrows at the bugman. He also had spewed acid onto the bugman, with little effect, and further onto the wild elf, who sizzled, screamed, and retired directly from the engagement.
Finally Rodus' pegasus fell, leaving only Rodus and Pusill the Elf Warrior to finish off a badly wounded Thri-Kreen. Rodus' arrows flew true, and ended the battle.
This scenario was heavily dependent on luck - and while Zippy's dice started sour, the sour passed to Tullywi mid-game & Zippy could not seem to fail a Life Force check. I suppose that's a good argument for units that hit hard enough to avoid that roll!Final tally tullywi VP = 99, zippy VP = 125, a close one! | | There are 10 kinds of people in the world; those who understand binary, and those who don't.

| REPORT: rgrayua(LE) vs. Banenight
Winning Warlord: No Name (rgrayua/LE) No Name's Warband: Chraal, Bugbear Footpad, Snig the Axe, Minions- Goblin Skirmisher x3, Direguard, Dread Guard, Pancho the Goblin Skirmisher, and Juan the Goblin Skirmisher; Tiles: Rubble Assembly, Treasure Room, Creeping Tangle and Medusa's Chamber. Warlord XP: +1000 XP / +1500 CP Warlord Leveling: No level, Add Feat for 3rd Level Lieutenant: 500 XP to the as of yet unnamed Direguard Lieutenant Leveling: none Magic Item Gained: (Med) +1 Melee Weapon of Force (gain Pushback) Magic Item Lost: None
Losing Warlord: Walter Banevil (Banenight) Konn's Warband: Gold Champion, Warforged Hero, Grinder the Halfling Veteran, Man at Arms; Tiles: Assembly Tile 6, Torture Chamber, Treasure Room and Warlord XP: +250 XP / +250 CP Warlord Leveling: none Magic Item Gained: (Med) Heightened Scroll Magic Item Lost: (Min) +1 Weapon traded
Summary
Both of us put out a lot of blocking terrain, so we wound up with a very congested battlefield. Fearing the cold weapon I abandoned my original plan of using an Efreeti and chose the Chraal. Imagine my surprise when the fire-breathing Gold Champ showed up packing the cold weapon. Both sides advanced towards the middle of the dungeon using the same Treasure Room to block line of sight. As usual Snig's Suicide Squad advanced first spreading out. No Name and the Footpad using their Hide ability took up position behind two statues in the Medusa's Chamber. The Chraal and Dread Guard advanced behind the Goblins, while the Direguard fired a magic missile into the Halfling Veteran that was brave enough to peek around the corner. Grinder undeterred by the Magic Missile advanced and killed a Skirmisher. However, two other Skirmishers quickly jumped out from behind a wall and hurled their spears at him with one of them connecting. Seeing No Name's forces spread so thin, the Gold Champion attempted a flank moving around the opposite end of the Treasure Room. But that was merely a feint by the crafty Hobgoblin and all of his troops quickly moved to the opposite end to gang up on the Halfling and the Warforged Hero who had come to the Halfing's aid. No Name won initiative and his troops attacked the Halfling forcing a MC which he made, and then surrounded and proceeded to pound on the durable Warforged Hero. The Dread Guard was able to set up a flank, so the Footpad could Sneak Attack the Warforged. The Gold Champ moved trying to come back to the battle. No Name lost initiative the next round and the Gold Champ moved forward unleashing its breath weapon catching the Chraal and someone else in the effect. Fortunately the gods favored No Name and both made their saves, which could have been hugely detrimental to the Chraal. The Chraal unleashed its breath weapon in return hitting Walter's remaining troops but missing the cleric himself. After firing his last Magic Missile into the Champ the prior round, the Direguard turned Incorporeal and walked through walls to base Walter. Walter took a hit, but then cast Sanctuary on himself and escaped. The Chraal eventually took out the Champion and the Footpad had caused significant damage to the Warforged. The Footpad and Dread Guard fell, Snig and his troops had been eliminated earlier, so No Name decided it was his time to move in and bat clean-up. Just as he was about to charge the battered Warforged, Walter surrendered.
We had wild swings with the dice, I started off low, but then fortune changed and Banenight got low rolls at the worst times and I got some fortuitous 20s. The Champ or Warforged missed the Footpad twice needing 4s or 5s. The Chraal got two critical hits on the Champ and a Skirmisher got a critical hit on the Halfling Veteran. I forgot Urthok's CE a couple of times that might have made a difference on my to hit rolls, on the insane AC of that Champ. Both of us entirely forgot the Life Force scenario, it might have made a difference but I doubt it. The finishing blow on the Champ was the critical by the Chraal when the Champ only had 10 HPs, so it would have taken him below -10 anyway.
How do we handle VPs since Banenight conceded? He had killed 65 points worth (counting the Minions, I think they count). Where I killed 65 also, but the Warforged only had 10 or 15 HPs, No Name would have finished him in short order.
Edit: Okay VPs, based on how I think it works--rgrayua: 125/125 = 100 (If game ends at concession, I would have 52); banenight 65/125 = 52. | | | |

| AngryIrish versus Redgar
Winning Player: AngryIrish (125 points) Vad's Warband: Vadania, Centaur Hero, Denton the Graycloak, wolf minion, catfolk, ialdabode Experience Gained: 1000 Leveling:N/A Lieutenant XP: 500 to Denton the Gray Lieutenant leveling options (if any): Denton Levels and gains +1 level, +10HP's and +1attack Magic item gained: +1 armor of sidestepping Magic item lost (if any): potion of reflection
Losing Player: Redgar (15 points) Zadkiel's Warband: Zadkiel, Rhek x2, Warmage, Soldier of Thrane, Celestial Dire Badger. Support: Dwarf AxeFighter Experience gained: 250 Warlord's leveling options (if any): N/A Magic item gained: minor scroll of quickened Magic item lost (if any): n/a
We both brought LOS tiles, which left the field wide open, and with the hidden gray and the hero firing away, Red had little choice but to come to me. Redgar led with the sword and attacked the hero for 10, who was down a bit after some acid arrows. Then a rhek had a charge to force a MC but missed with a 1 (HUGE). The hero then attacked the sword twice, takin it down to 0 HP's, but Red made the life force check. But a snakes swift ended the swords hopes, by hitting and takin her below the -5 hp life check limit. next round the rhek hit the hero, taking it to 50 HP, 5 away from a MC. The hero then hit the rhek, which failed his MC and ran away. The hero then backed into the mush tangle to avoide anymore charges. After that, I took out the other rhek, and all he had left was the warmage with 5 damage sonic spells which Vad was virtually immune to.
