14: Also, Speedhogg



Good fucking job assholes!



Not you, you actually are doing a good job.



In just about every way.



Anyway, this sure is a map. We get to bring a lot of people, but most of these uh. Really do not belong on a lategame fog of war map!



Gonna need this for a bit.



And also this...?



Got some people set up below,



got some people set up on the side...



Gimme two turns i'm working on it!



no you will not.



So since no one has any fucking magic



this is the most light we can manage. Can't even spot Riev!



Hopefully it's enough though. Gonna need Neimi up front



and a dance



and a rescue



and a warp.



Beam us down, Saleh!



There's a decrepit old bag of bones somewhere around here, i can smell it.



Well somewhere around here should be fi



right into his range. Just gotta hope Neimi doesn't crit him turn one.



Because i have another thing i need to do!



Can't really get to the action even with people who want action.



The greenies are so incredibly outclassed it's not even funny.



Hey, there's some action!



I appreciate you going for me over one of the knights you could probably oneround.



Neimi's like







The druids move? Well that's obnoxious!



You are so bad at this. How.



Anyway, since i didn't get any physics last time



i've taken the liberty of stocking up.



And getting a few kills where i could.



And now,



WELCOME



TO DIE!



Spoiler, i'm probably going to do the same thing there.



This is the Best Worst Level.



And this is silver bow money, because we can buy those here!



He says like he did anything.



"Range: Total". We can use this! L'Arachel herself could do it, but in practice it's probably going to be Moulder because he doesn't need stats or movement to activate a map-wide full heal.



For me? Oh, you... absolutely should have i am trying to save the world here in case anyone hadn't noticed



They really didn't but i'm willing to let them think they did something useful.



The reward for keeping a decent number of greenies alive. If you let the enemy have more than one turn, you are almost certainly not getting this, because they are so bad.



And then i checked the shop and they do not sell physics in the regular shop so i'm glad i thought to hit the secret shop while i was in there!



Then i went and sold off all the vulneraries and shit so i could fill my convoy with silver/killer/long bows...



...and elixirs. And some pure waters, too, because why not? It's way, way overkill and i won't need half of the things i bought but you know what? There's no reward for not buying Literally All The Bows either, so i know what i prefer.

Come to think of it since we didn't 1-turn the map i could have warped someone into one of the treasure rooms and got some of the loot, the speedwing would have bee nice (Garcia) or i could have made an effort to find the brave bow that drops from one of the enemies, but honestly we don't need any of that so

Now then, Darling Woods.

wait what



Whatever it's called, we're about as stocked up as we're going to get, so i do declare it to be go time.



And by this we mean Ephraim's going to watch his company challenge them.



This is some Cthulhu shit, only hopefully with less racism.



"Oh i just heard the dankest weed grows here"

"Say no more."



Myrrh is capital-D Depressing.



So's the state of our army.



I'm bringing these guys, and also Seth and Duessel. No one else would be able to contribute meaningfully, other than maybe throwing themselves in front of an enemy and dying to save Garcia 2 hp.

(Well okay i guess Natasha is probably about as good as Moulder despite being like 7 levels below him and unpromoted but...)



This is the biggest, most immediate concern because as you can see by the three tiles of range, that's stone.



But we have ways of countering stone.



Pure water!



A dance!



A support partner!



A creep!

wait that's not part of my strategy



Ye. We're looking at a single digit turn clear here, spoiler.



Hahahaha that's so cute.



Anyway, we're still a couple turns away from that.



None of these guys can do anything significant.



I wasn't expecting this to land, and if it did i have like a million staff users who can unstone him, and also Neimi with the Nidhogg is right there.



Scrubs cleaned out, but these guys are a little more threatening. We haven't really seen a lot of them before now.



This isn't relevant, but it's tradition.



Anyway, as you see, they are pretty tanky



but of course Neimi just decided to crit and erase this one anyway. That's still not very important, though; they still aren't the worst this map has to offer.



Even when we let them have turns.



These guys though! They are huge sacks of hp, and they have some decent def too.



And of course there's a shadowshot asshole... or actually i think there's a couple, just the others are further in the back and not relevant right now or indeed at all.



Getting to go ham with silvers and killer weapons is so nice!



Don't need them for these guys, but that makes it even better.



That... that is not a miss, how is that a miss



See? That's more like it!



These guys keep spawning in!



Lol.



Almost to the warrior strength cap! I am so mad Neimi doesn't get 30 str, she'd have hit that five maps ago, better believe it.



Double lol.



This look like a sword to you? Take a closer look, i insist.



7 move Tethys is the best idea i've ever had.



and i mean i'm playing sacred stones using no weapons but bows so my decision making abilities should clearly not be in question here



anyway so there's a ton of reinforcements here, and these guys will also keep coming.



Colossal bags of hp.



They aren't nearly as slow as they look, either.



Rare image of a floating pony that doesn't have a troub on it!



Ugh.



No, i do believe i'm quite tired of this already. It's not going to get better as we go, and i do have a warp staff



(and a warp level)



Funny, i was just about to say the same. Fortunately



Neimi has an arrow for each one,



Lots of jerks in the area though, so!



And let's patch that thing up again.



Look at this shit, Garcia can't double this and he won't even kill it if he rolls his (more likely than not!) crit.



Seth is used to playing wall by now.



Well then, it's a fresh new turn so



it's time to oneround Morva, Myrrh you might want to look in the other direction or something because this is going to get real ugly.



Then we dance



and put Ephraim right on top of the corpse no Myrrh keep looking in that direction



Saleh got a level i was too slow to catch, he looks like this now.



It looks more purple to me.



Depressing!



You stop that.



It is still go time! You can be depressing after the next update!
