I'm not an expert or even well experienced player in FL, but I think there is possibility to "broken" monster in this game in one turn. But it's a ghost and Htech has written that it flickers, so I presumed also it will have some resistance to physical damage or something like that. ( I intentionally didn't check it's stats, to not spoil me a discovery:) )

So in my opinion: you are right, the next fear attack could broke both of those PCs(and maybe Faramos too), but monster attacks are rolled in this system, so it could come as some different action. Although - if I'm right about damage resistance - I feel we didn't have too big chances of surviving this fight. So it was wise too run:)

And from RP side - I like it very much, too. I think it is how normal person would act to me, and danger in this system is 'real'. They say FL - even though it is not on DnD mechanics - is very OSR in style.

So Faramos tripped and fall. The girls managed to escape and get some distance. So... do we know each other location? Or we got lost from each other running away in horror? :)

The ghost went northeast, so you can follow if you want (if you dare? =D). Combat is over, either way. Everybody fled.

Edit: Faramos can easily find Nindia and Brenda

So we are together again?
Aug 14, 2024 9:06 am
Yup

Ok, Thx. I will do my next post later, or tomorrow.

asking an opinion.

Do you think FLEEING were the best choice? I mean tactically, not RP-wise
As far as I understand both Nindia and Brenda had very little chance to survive one more fear attack without getting broken (wits)
We probably could have taken ghost in one round, but I'm just not used to kill monster in one round in RPG games. Perhaps this one is different?
The encounters are based on the terrain and locations, not on your "characters level". This game is deadly and a Total Party Kill is not that unusual. So, yes, I think it was good tactics.

Moreover, in true OSR fashion, I don't fudge the dice, so we may need to create new PCs if that happens...

Running was good RP as well. =)

I have now even added a new XP question in our advancement rules:

Have you fled from one or more dangerous monsters or NPCs?
Aug 14, 2024 1:23 pm
Besides... @GreyWord - from PC's perspective it is obvious - to me - that they should NOT fallow the ghost. But as player... I'm getting interested what HTech planned there for us. What you think?
Aug 14, 2024 1:37 pm
That ghost obviously will turn into pile of gold when killed, not to mention region maps it is hiding LOL. And the plan was for ghost to roll 3 time 6 ⚔️ allow Faramos to carry both girls around on his shoulders.

Seriously - I would like to arrogantly believe it was a test combat to help me ensure I understand how it works ...

Sorry... but I don't understand what you mean by that:( In context of my question: do you want to go after the ghost or not? :)

I see no benefit of destroying the ghost (unless it will follow us). Ghosts don't have loot, do they?
Aug 14, 2024 1:52 pm
Hmmm... I didn't even think about fighting the ghost. I meant going next in that direction. I was thinking about checking what is in the "heart of the forest" where the ghost went. Hopefully not meeting/interacting the ghost again. Sorry for articulating this so badly !

Now when I reread my post I'm not surprised that you understood my post this way:(

So @GreyWord what are you thinking about going towards "heart of the forest" while trying to avoid any ghosts - to be clear this time? :) AS PCs pov - probably not the wisest move... but I'm as player interested in that?
Aug 16, 2024 9:52 am
We sure not turning back due to a single ghost. Learned the lesson and press on

By the way, seeing how frequently our food dice changes I made it editable in the charsheet

Thats even better than it was! But do you know that after clicking in the father and little jar icon you can edit whole section? I have edited it that way so far.
Aug 20, 2024 5:25 am
Didn't know, thanks! I was editing whole sheet :)
Aug 20, 2024 8:29 am
I usually avoid editable fields in dice rolls because every time you click to edit, it adds a roll.

By clicking in the quill, you can edit just that section without any extra rolls added.

But the sheet is something owned by the players, more than by the GM'S, so feel free to change it =)

Seriously, let's visit both in either order. I would hate to leave any unexplored and wonder forever - what was there...
