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

I vote for fast-forwarding through the rest of the firefighting effort.

When y'all have decided your 'plan' to fight the fires, anyone who hasn't acted yet this round should tell me where you're positioning to (and anyone who did already can change if they want), and we'll see how it goes. But when one player submits a plan, I really need to see each party member actively buy off on it, I won't move y'all based on one's plan, y'know?

[SirRobertGerard]

Talk here ok guys. So, i have a bucket of water in my hand plus the brigade, are we able to do two one from each side and finish it in the upper left window then? I think it may be doable w/ 2 brigades?

[keylan]

On fire assignment move me where needed since I cannot open map to see what is going on

Those with low CMBs would get the +5 on using a bucket of water. That's where your bucket brigade would come in. But somehow you have to move the buckets from the doorway (or a window?) to the fire to use them.
Really too bad you don't have a caster that can create water... that would take out multiple squares of fire at once.

who has the other high CMB
Kazgar is +5
let's form a T Kazgar and ? on each end, brigade up the middle

[SirRobertGerard]

Ok sounds great 3. I can do one with Dag if no one is willing. Anyone have good CMB's? Whats good 5?

[Anodyzed]

One has 5, three have 3, one has 2 and two have 0 for the party CMBs.

[SirRobertGerard]

Ok we will get three going here. Did you invision 2 thru the windows anodyzed? It looks like thats an easy way. Maybe by employing that method we could throw four buckets at a time, at least till we beat it back some, no?

[Anodyzed]

You're pouring the buckets, if you throw them you'd run out of buckets fairly quickly.

I didn't particularly 'envision' any set way to do it, kinda leaving that coordination up to you all. This part of this scenario is really about 'team building, coordination' if you didn't see that. Skills that will be invaluable later.

You tell me where you're standing, and I'll adjudicate the actions.

Not sure if you noticed, but the fire doesn't grow on diagonals...but I am letting you fight it from a diagonal. When the fire 'spreads' I count the number of spaces it can grow into, clockwise usually from the top right, and roll a die, that's the square it spreads into.

[SirRobertGerard]

Ok then. I dont think many have this as an email update, do you mind if i chatter in your story area with the rest of the team?

[Anodyzed]

No problem here.

[noozoo]

I do get emails for this forum...

[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?

[noozoo]

I think the brigade is set already. Whoever's left should go on a diagonal (perhaps representing a spot the fire is less likely to spread to) and fight the other fires. IMO of course.

[Anodyzed]

I don't have 'input' this round on Kat, Gilpher or Toren. Are they staying put or doing something?
