[OOC] Age of Man: Return of The Ancients

[Arthanus]

I would prefer the ones with the bows to make the first move, but if you put in after the archer shot then it would be fine. Don't want to have everyone waiting to post.

[Deamonbane]

Ah right.... I always mix up the two...

[Konica]

Just so you guys know, I'm gonna be busy the next 4 days because of 4th of July weekend Anime Expo!!! I'm pretty excited it's my first time!

[Arthanus]

oooo Anime Expo sounds fun. Take me with you! lol have fun

[Arthanus]

And just so you know BK and Lily I am counting you two as the archers because you are the ones equipped with a bow. Just in case you are waiting on others

[BKburke]

Sorry. I'll get a post up soon.

[Lily Kierstrider]

Sorry, I've been busy :O I'll get on it when I have time to do more than just read new posts (hopefully in a couple hours!)

[Deamonbane]

Ugh, didn't see that part about no auto kills... I'll redo my post...

[Lily Kierstrider]

My first impression of Decado so far: "You're all idiots. Back off, I'm gonna solo this." *insert shades here*

[Arthanus]

Yes no auto kills please. That goes for saying the wolf's death as well. If it is such a big wolf a little arrow isn't going to pierce its skull which would be very thick and hard. Unless there is a perfect shot to the eye an arrow isn't really going to do much. And I think I'll get up the Orcs response here in a bit.

*winces* Sorry about that... he is a naturally grouchy and arrogant guy, so trying to stay in character... however, in my edit of the post, I had him moving in to distract the orc and take any first blows and getting out of the way for your character to attack...

[Arthanus]

lol it is nothing against you Bane, your playing the character how you made him. If that is how his personality is, it is how it is. It is sure to make some inner conflict later on! Should be fun.

Nah, you're good lol I find his haughtiness very amusing. Like Arthanus said, it's nothing against you

[Arthanus]

Also I just realized, we were all going with armored Orcs, and that might be true for the main troops, but heavy armor is bad for hunting, and I know its my fault for just saying Orc, but I am going to work on fixing that as for now here is a pic of what this group of Orcs would look like. And ill try to be more descriptive from now sorry for the inconvenience guys. Also to try and make the fight easier I tried to label the orcs marking them with the first initial of who I see fighting them.

[Arthanus]

I have a feeling Didos isn't reading the OOC, either way I am kinda feeling an ehh from his post. I don't see how you can "relentlessly assault" someone with a halberd. It is a heavy weapon and consecutive strikes leave you open for counter attacks (which is why the weapon was used by knights in heavy armor) I was expecting some creativity in its use... So I'll give until the next round of posts is over before some orc takes advantage of those openings and injures the character. Also I would like to see a little more detail in which orc you are attacking, and more then just a combo of swings would be nice. But since I don't think Didos is reading the OOC I doubt the changes will be made.

[BKburke]

I agree with you on the haelbard part. They are heavy and powerful weapons that require presice attacks and stability.

Also. I knew you would say that about the wolf. That's why I aimed for the head. I knew it wouldn't be a kill shot like the throat. I'll get a post up soon. 4th of July weekend got me busy.

[Deamonbane]

Halbards are anti-cavalry weapons that can be used as long range axes. They are heavy, and they are pole arms, and therefore not usually used for swinging, but... well poking... So quick attacks on those are a little complicated...

[Arthanus]

No worries BK its a holiday weekend enjoy it and have fun. But I expect you all to report in on time to work Monday morning! lol

[Arthanus]

Soooo who wants to post next?

[Deamonbane]

I'm waiting for Decado's partner to post before I do so myself...
