Prelude to War!

Cindurion 27-Jan-22 12:00 AM

Phew, I think Suri was just saved by the bell! She had sent all her minions out, and Walter actually showed up in her home zone. Unfortunately he took too long to decide what to do so he didn't have time for a fight, but I think Suri might've almost died right then and there!

Davey Bones 27-Jan-22 12:01 AM

Well, if nothing else it looks like Walter might get his wish soon.

Cindurion 27-Jan-22 12:02 AM

Well, Tales of Battle is a cruel mistress. He could easily roll a nat 1 vs a nat 20 and lose any fight, despite overwhelming advantages!

Davey Bones 27-Jan-22 12:02 AM

I'm holding out hope that doesn't happen.

Cindurion 27-Jan-22 12:02 AM

But yes, things are certainly coming up Walter! (edited)

Cindurion 28-Jan-22 10:36 PM

Oooh, here we go! Suri's Servant, Zamesi and his hired assassin, as well as Walter are all in the drop zone, and the drop is coming down! This Mage War might be over soon, folks! (Figuratively. I don't think Flo is winning this one with the amount of info he has)

Cindurion 30-Jan-22 12:58 AM

Welcome to the Ghost-chat, @Suri Kerrington ! Feel free to ask your fellow ghosts about any burning questions you might have or head over to the website to read any of the full dialogues between me and the players here: https://magewars.cindurion.com/

Prelude to War!

Blaine Greatheart 30-Jan-22 12:58 AM

heyo! so what got ya? ^^

Cindurion 30-Jan-22 12:59 AM

Remember that you cannot tell living players that you are dead nor are you allowed to tell them anything that you might know. Current live players are Walter, Flo and Zamesi

Suri Kerrington 30-Jan-22 12:59 AM

Grenades, mostly...

Blaine Greatheart 30-Jan-22 12:59 AM

so same as me eh

Walter is effing ruthless xD

Blaine Greatheart 30-Jan-22 01:00 AM

allso, angel sayes hi

Cindurion 30-Jan-22 01:00 AM

Mind you, he takes double damage from grenades, which was absolutely crippling!

Blaine Greatheart 30-Jan-22 01:00 AM

oh god xD

Suri Kerrington 30-Jan-22 01:00 AM

It was bad.

I was the swarm. He basically ended me in a single grenade.

Blaine Greatheart 30-Jan-22 01:01 AM

it's abit sad your out, i think you where the only one with extensive knowledge about the corruption, Walter only knows the player side effect mostly

since he suffered it allot before his base got collapsed

so how crazy is the drop site currently?

Suri Kerrington 30-Jan-22 01:04 AM

Well, there were 2 snipers when I last saw it. And a bunch of bikers circling the area.

Cindurion 30-Jan-22 01:05 AM

Bikers are rushing Walter's building and the snipers are having a snipe-off. Not sure what Zamesi is up to tbh

Blaine Greatheart 30-Jan-22 01:05 AM

wich site was teh designated drop zone this time?

Cindurion 30-Jan-22 01:05 AM

Downtown Luxury Apartments

Blaine Greatheart 30-Jan-22 01:05 AM

ah darn, only got 1/5 corrupted

your base was the downtown apartments, same zone as the bank, right?

Suri Kerrington 30-Jan-22 01:07 AM

Yeah, in the sewers

Blaine Greatheart 30-Jan-22 01:07 AM

hade a feeling, suddenly the corruption in that area dropped from 5/5 to 1/5

if Walter can just get zamesi then i don't think Flo's got much of a chance once Walter locates him

Davey Bones 30-Jan-22 01:18 AM

Welcome to the club, we have no cookies.

Suri Kerrington 30-Jan-22 01:19 AM

Well, someone had better get started on some!

Blaine Greatheart 30-Jan-22 01:21 AM

...don't look at me, i'm a bloody smear on the wall, davey's still up and about, he can bake 'em!

Davey Bones 30-Jan-22 01:21 AM

... Do I look like a baker to ye?

Blaine Greatheart 30-Jan-22 01:22 AM

you alteast got a body! that's more then what i have to work with and no my servant got sadly slayed shortly after my own departure so no help from angel

Suri Kerrington 30-Jan-22 01:23 AM

Dammit, I could have used the crumbs to rebuild my swarm!

Cindurion 30-Jan-22 01:25 AM

Ooof, Walter is sharing some memes that are very relevant atm

Suri Kerrington 30-Jan-22 01:25 AM

Ouch...

Blaine Greatheart 30-Jan-22 01:25 AM

jupp, just got one of 'em

xD

Davey Bones 30-Jan-22 01:53 AM

Come to think about it, is it just me who is slightly surprised that Flo made it to top 3? That's pretty impressive, even if he spent a good 95% of the war indoors. xD

Blaine Greatheart 30-Jan-22 01:53 AM

i think you hit the nail on HOW he did it xD

Davey Bones 30-Jan-22 01:53 AM

Hey man, it's worked out better for him so far than what we did!

Suri Kerrington 30-Jan-22 01:54 AM

I did spend 100% of my time indoors.

Blaine Greatheart 30-Jan-22 01:54 AM

so and so, Walter still absolutely decked one of his prized mini-servants in one shoot xD

Suri Kerrington 30-Jan-22 01:55 AM

I helped! Kinda.

Blaine Greatheart 30-Jan-22 01:55 AM

i dunno, he still rolled a nat 20 stealth and then a nat 20 acc when he shoot there, and he was already paranoid before you showed up xD

Suri Kerrington 30-Jan-22 01:56 AM

Let me have this!

Blaine Greatheart 30-Jan-22 01:56 AM

never!

Suri Kerrington 30-Jan-22 01:56 AM

Btw, did any of you guys die in a catacomb?

Davey Bones 30-Jan-22 01:56 AM

Didn't die.

Blaine Greatheart 30-Jan-22 01:57 AM

you mean in the church? yeah that was my base

Walter blew me up

thanks for taking care of my book ^^

and again, angel says hi

Suri Kerrington 30-Jan-22 01:57 AM

You're welcome!

Blaine Greatheart 30-Jan-22 01:57 AM

i heard you got scared shitless by him xD

Suri Kerrington 30-Jan-22 01:57 AM

Hi Angel!

Blaine Greatheart 30-Jan-22 01:58 AM

to be fair, Walter was afraid of him too

Suri Kerrington 30-Jan-22 01:58 AM

Did I?

Blaine Greatheart 30-Jan-22 01:58 AM

aperently they accidently ran into eachother in the hospital, and Walter was allmost killed by him, but since it was day he survived xD

from what Cindurion told me you got very nervous after it killed the magus guye that was with your servant

Suri Kerrington 30-Jan-22 01:59 AM

I was a bit nervous, but in the end angel did get owned.

Blaine Greatheart 30-Jan-22 02:00 AM

he still got to bloody someone, Walter got super carefull around him after that hospital encounter xD

Davey Bones 30-Jan-22 02:00 AM

Speaking of freaking out, it was fun to read your reaction to finding out that The Immortal Tyrant was actually a live servant. xD

Blaine Greatheart 30-Jan-22 02:01 AM

wasen't that much alive when we ran into eachother xD

Suri Kerrington 30-Jan-22 02:02 AM

It was VERY unexpected!

Original message was deleted or could not be loaded.

Cindurion 30-Jan-22 02:02 AM

Pinned a message.

Davey Bones 30-Jan-22 02:03 AM

Honestly, the biggest surprise to me after leaving the war was finding out that there was someone who was more unsure than me in that situation.

Blaine Greatheart 30-Jan-22 02:03 AM

to be fair, i hade special news every day so i hade no fucking clue about the riots, plauge etc xD

i only knew what the hell was going on in my home base

Davey Bones 30-Jan-22 02:04 AM

You did see what was being said in trash-talk though, right?

Blaine Greatheart 30-Jan-22 02:05 AM

jupp

Davey Bones 30-Jan-22 02:05 AM

Alright, just making sure. Out of curiosity, were you at all tempted by my offer at the start of the war? xD

Blaine Greatheart 30-Jan-22 02:05 AM

abit

i was trying to convince the voice to maby keep an eye on you are maby you use vs the magus organization but he wanted the church to have no connection to you so hade to play along hoping i could use him later

buuut that diden't pan out

Davey Bones 30-Jan-22 02:07 AM

That's fair. Good to see that there are still some people in the church willing to work with the undead! ^^

Cindurion 30-Jan-22 02:08 AM

Hmm, had a tough question, so I'll do a committee decision: Would voodoo magic be able to summon spirits to try and defend against an attack?

Blaine Greatheart 30-Jan-22 02:08 AM

i mean hey, i wanted you to live long and be a thorn in the magus organizations side so i could summon my god mate!

Davey Bones 30-Jan-22 02:08 AM

Hmm... I'd say that would depend on the attack. If it is a sort of magical or mental thing, I could see it, but I am having a hard time seeing physical attacks.

Blaine Greatheart 30-Jan-22 02:09 AM

hmmm, considering it's voodoo i would believe it's possible if the spirits are willing since i don't think there's much about forcing spirits to do stuff using voodoo

but i could allso see it beeing a problem for someone like baron samedi if a practitioner would missuse such craft (edited)

Suri Kerrington 30-Jan-22 02:09 AM

If they've prepped something for it beforehand, I'd say yes. Otherwise maybe not.

And I'm totally not saying this because I had to spend actions to modify my swarms to be able to do ANYTHING! (edited)

Davey Bones 30-Jan-22 02:11 AM

Care to finish that thought?

Blaine Greatheart 30-Jan-22 02:11 AM

you do bring up a good point about the magical and physical thing since spirits might not be abel to interact with physical objects

Davey Bones 30-Jan-22 02:12 AM

Yeah. I could imagine that maybe they could have, if the Broker were to make a pact with a powerful spirit for protection beforehand, but on the fly it seems a bit much for me.

Cindurion 30-Jan-22 02:13 AM

Thanks for your input guys! Seemed pretty much in-line with what I was thinking but am not too familiar with Voodoo magic myself

Davey Bones 30-Jan-22 02:13 AM

You're welcome, happy to help. (edited)

Blaine Greatheart 30-Jan-22 02:13 AM

i mostly know a little from some random comics and a few things i've read up on baron samedi ^^

Cindurion 30-Jan-22 08:39 PM

Holy moly, this combat is turning around!

Blaine Greatheart 30-Jan-22 08:39 PM

Suri Kerrington 30-Jan-22 08:39 PM

Walter is losing?!

Cindurion 30-Jan-22 08:40 PM

Zamesi triggered Last Chance some time ago, but now Walter is about to take a 100 damage crit and previously a 50 damage hit. His SMG got jammed... This could go either way!

Blaine Greatheart 30-Jan-22 08:40 PM

daaaamn

Suri Kerrington 30-Jan-22 08:40 PM

The winner of this is likely gonna be the winner of the war, no?

Cindurion 30-Jan-22 08:40 PM

If Walter wins, yes.

Blaine Greatheart 30-Jan-22 08:41 PM

maby, i think if zamesi wins Flo's got a better chance

Cindurion 30-Jan-22 08:41 PM

If Zamesi wins, I don't know?

Davey Bones 30-Jan-22 08:41 PM

Cindurion 30-Jan-22 08:41 PM

Flo has a decent chance against Zamesi

Not against Walter though I think

Blaine Greatheart 30-Jan-22 08:41 PM

yeah

Davey Bones 30-Jan-22 09:21 PM

Oh god.

Who died?

Cindurion 30-Jan-22 09:25 PM

Now this is a special situation, Zamesi is dead but will be returning within 1 day unless the war is over by then. He is allowed access to this chat since he is dead though, so make of that what you will!

Blaine Greatheart 30-Jan-22 09:25 PM

well, conisdering what Walter just wrote to me it seams like zamesi died

well intressting

Davey Bones 30-Jan-22 09:26 PM

Blaine Greatheart 30-Jan-22 09:26 PM

well hello spirit of vengance, too hard to get me my vengance? ^^ (edited)

Davey Bones 30-Jan-22 09:27 PM

I be holding a grudge, ye should know.

Suri Kerrington 30-Jan-22 09:29 PM

I have no idea who you are.

Blaine Greatheart

well hello spirit of vengance, too hard to get me my vengance? ^^ (edited)

Zamesi 30-Jan-22 09:37 PM

I meeeeean, im trying my best here xD

Blaine Greatheart 30-Jan-22 09:38 PM

i wan't to just be honest and say that i immediately though it was you that wrote that message but i played along for fun ^^

Zamesi 30-Jan-22 09:46 PM

I believe you ;)
