Smiles. I recall a movie where the person firing a gun could curve the path of a bullet to let it do as they wanted. In the show, the person actually shot a bullet killing several people in its path and circled back to kill the shooter. I guess we can't do that with the canon.

I remember that one! Wanted, from 2008 I think

huh, so unless someone has the ability to curve a bullet, our plan needs to include moving the canon?
Or your plan of luring the target into the line of fire. The Cannon’s current position looks down Main Street, but could be turned to look either direction down First Avenue.

I'll let team canon decide if they want to move it or not. Then team Bait can act accordingly
Dec 14, 2023 11:21 pm
37 will bait wherever needed. I don't think moving the cannon is a good idea. Between how difficult it would be and the attention moving it would draw.

M'kay. But don't complain if the target doesn't fall for the bait and doesn't step in the firing line
Dec 15, 2023 1:28 am
Oh, you mean we can fight it the way I'd prefer?

Why would I complain?

But if there's not a goblin and a dwarf pushing a canon down the street, no one will be able to see "There's something you don't see every day"

Oh well. So will we be split into two are the teams? Are we letting 37 approach the church alone, then ambush whoever comes out to fight?

I think the plan is this:

There are two groups - One to stay with, protect, and man the cannon. The other will work to ambush patrols and thin down the number of Warforged enemies in town.

37 will be on the ambush team. We're going to pick a spot along a patrol route and set up an ambush. After that fight, we move closer towards the church and do it again. Then, again. By the time we near the church -- assuming all hell hasn't broken loose already -- the party will hang back (hide?) and 37 will act as bait.

We try for the cannon shot against the Titan, and then hit or miss we go all in.

***** ***** *****

We don't have to use that plan. I'm certainly open to suggestions, and would be quick to back something better.

That said... as a player, I'm ready to get things moving.

But the floor is certainly open for anyone to discuss strategy.

I like that plan, I have no notes, we can adjust along the way, in or out of character.

sligh update to plan will not take me out of story for a month or so

1. everyone ambush 3 pairs of blade patrols

2. move cannon and set it up in best possible position

3. 37 act


Update: just realized I'm only who want to move cannon. Please disregard that idea

Worth pointing out that the entire party could do the ambush part of the plan, and then when...

1) We get near the church and 37 goes to bait out the Titan, OR
2) The fight goes from an abush to a fullscale fight against all the remaining Warforged

...the team for the cannon can break off and rush back to man/protect the cannon, and we proceed normally.

That way no one is left on a rooftop with nothing to do.

This wan't the plan? Thought we were going to clear the patrols (preferably with stealth, but I doubt that would happen) then advance towards their base with the big boom stick.
Guess my reading comprehension is lacking a little
@Nictorah, quick question. We are a night after the bar fight correct? Does this mean mine clock has recharged?

SheK is easy on plans. Do what you want. She is guarding the cannon. Simple. Longbow has a nice range on it. And she is killer shooting it.

Close.

There's a group with the cannon. The question is if they're staying with the cannon while the rest of us ambush patrols OR if they're coming with us to ambush patrols and then returning to the cannon.

(The OOC question is how involved the players with the cannon want to be.)

Yes, it is the next day and your watch has reset.

Are we currently on the roof? Or in Sheriff's office?

In sheriff’s office

For personal reasons I'm leaving this game. I love the story and DM's effort. Who knows - maybe Buff will join your adventuring sometimes later. But for now I wish you all merry Christmas and happy new year.

Understandable. wish you a happy holiday and new year.
