OOC - for scheming behind the GM's back (sorta)

[SirRobertGerard]

All of us standing in that long single file line are not putting out these fires at all.

[cybersavant]

how do we get the water to the fires then?
Kazgar can use a tapestry, someone else use water to keep it from spreading - i though we need someone every other square

[Anodyzed]

Your normal movement is six squares. That's a move action.
And throwing water from a bucket on a fire square you're next to (or diagonally touching) is a standard action. You can put those two together any way you want to.

I'm not penalizing you for picking up or 'passing' the buckets, just the physical act of dousing a square with water takes the Standard Action. I'll even give you that 'tossing an empty bucket' is a swift action, if that helps anyone map out how to do this.

[SirRobertGerard]

Ok, three openings on the left side of the map almost touch fires. Therefore, one person at each. The remaining 4 form a bucket brigade coming in from the center right to hit that fire up top just for now till we beat it back a little. This way we are able to fight the fire initially on 4 fronts simultaneously and should whoop it back in a few rounds. What do you think?


So what I am suggesting had us throwing four sets of water every round.

[cybersavant]

sounds good

[FamMedKing]

I'm close to the top fire, so will help with the bucket line for that one at G5

[SirRobertGerard]

Great then 3 of us standing and throwing from open exits while the rest in a small brigade upper right hand side down to the center right door should get the job done quick.

What do we need to do to get to the next round?

[Anodyzed]

I can 'grow the fires' and post the next round's map. If I got someone out of place I can redo it.
Then in the next round, everyone can tell me what they're doing...

[SirRobertGerard]

Great. Whom couldnt see the map? Are you willing to throw solo? Whats your characters movement?

[Anodyzed]

Why can't I even find the post where I put the new round 6 map?

[SirRobertGerard]

Alright men, about to change Cadence here shortly. I keep thinking about fighting this Fire in one long Brigade and know we can fight the fire in at least 4 places as opposed to one. Dag is going to break formation and move to an open exit and throw water hoping to beat the blaze. I hope another 2 players follow suit and also throw buckets solo, leaving the remaining characters to reform their line and fight the fire also. Good luck Team.

[cybersavant]

will we still be close enough to receive new buckets?
if so, kazgar can do so - with water would have +10

[SirRobertGerard]

Literally 5 foot from a townsmen handing us a bucket and not having to move an inch to theow at the fire.

[cybersavant]

they won't come inside, so we have to be in a line 5' from each other, correct?

[noozoo]

I think he said 10 ft.


"Once you have an 'every other square' brigade arranged on the map, I'll give you a +5 to extinguish A SQUARE with a bucket of water... one per round."
