[Chapter Master Ignis Domus]

We'll do another round of chucking tankards at team Hrothgar.

 

I'm contemplating a suicide run with a gulp of mjod to see if I can set my team up for a win.

 

Go for it. I won't whack you with the S8 attack if you do.

:: The Turn Sequence ::

1) Movement. A player moves similar to a rook and bishop in chess; moving any number of squares along rank, file, or diagonal

2) Shooting. (OPTIONAL, may go directly into combat if user wishes) Players can throw weapons available in each square tile in the map, weapons that consist from bottles, chairs, tables and the occasional Blood Claw. Shooting causes the player to be stunned and pinned.

3) Close Combat. Each user has the option to tag-team, or fight other users occupying a single tile in close combat. Once a player fails his save, he continues fight on with the following negative modifiers (-1 attack, -1 initiative) until he fails his leadership test.

Each member is responsible for giving out their instructions to their pack leader (alpha). Players have a total of 24hrs (12hrs North American side, 12hrs European/Asian side) to submit their instructions to keep the brawl running smoothly. once everyone's locked in combat the pase of the brawl may increase. Passed out or inactive members during the brawl are given a specified time to react (24hrs). If we hear nothing from the user, his character is then stripped, shaven, de-fanged, dressed as a Dark Angel marine and thrown out of the tavern, and is therefore referred to as an oath breaker! It's just that simple.

:: The Rules ::

1) Indicate your character's location and actions to a designated bartender/servitor. Post your instructions, it helps keep track of everyone on the trend and keeps everyone entertained at the same time. Lastly... PRAY to the dice gods!

2) Only five users may occupy one tile. Each character has the Independent special rule.

3) Users have an option to join a pack of up to a limit of 5 members. Your pack may team up with several other packs. The more the better! start a gang just in case other Astartes chapters decide to crash our party. Just remember, at the end of the night there can only be one man standing. Even if your team manages to be the victor of the night, the pack needs an alpha. Therefore to run your pack, you have to fight for the title.

4) Close combat weapons are temporary and are destroyed or left behind as your character moves onto the next tile. You can throw weapons, which counts as your shooting.

5) Once a user fails his armour save, a leadership roll is made to see if the drunkard can still stand and fight with negative modifiers (-1 WS, -1 A, -1 I) the drunkard breaks off from combat and restarts at a safe location. Once a user fails his final armour save, the character is rendered unconscious and is therefore subject to being used as a weapon by anyone in the tile or can be used as an ablative wound. ie. imagine a drunken Blood Claw being used by a long fang as a weapon

6) )mjod, before each round all the brawlers that are not locked into combat need to state wether they wish to drink a stein of mjod. incase of no answer it will be assumed they didn't drink any for that round. Should a brawler drink the mjod before the start of the turn a single D6 is rolled to see what effect the mjod has on the brawler. the results of the roll are descriped underneath and will last for the following D6 turns to represent the longer effect of the mjod inside the wolf his blood. Any brawler can opt to drink mjod in another turn, even if the previous mjod is still in effect. the D6 diceroll for the result however gets rolled with a -1 modifier, the third mjod with a -2 modifier etc. this to represent the increasing chance of getting pissdrunk

-6- the mjod kicks into action and the brawler start to feel capable of doing anything, the rouse is so complete he's unaware of pain and will only feel the bruises the next morning.- for the following game turn the brawler gains the feel no pain rule

-5- slowly starting to get drunk the brawler becomes more and more aggresive, getting fustrated easier and even more easy to jump into combat.-for the following game turn the brawler gains the furious charge special rule.(this bonus stacks with the furious charge of stormclaws)

-4- in an attempt to gain the upper hand the brawler breaks his stein after downing the mjod so he can use it as an extra weapon.- for the following game turn the brawler gains +1A

-3-2- the mjod seems to have no effect on the brawler

-1- the mjod gains the upper hand of the brawler, and his visage begins to blur as the combat ensues.before the start of the round the brawler become -1 WS and -1BS.

7) The last three drunkards remaining, become league members. If one of those players is already a League member, then it defaults to the next non-league member. League championship upgrades teams or characters to the following: Wolf Guard, Iron Priest, and Storm Claw.

8) The last man standing, wins the game and earns the title of Inglorious Brawler.

TURN V

Mjod rolls:

Chef: 4, lasts 4 turns

Wyrsten: 6! Lasts 1 turn

Arez: 4, becomes 3, lasts 4 turns

In the left corner Wyrsten pummels into Forte,with chef in his pursuit, hitting with all his attacks (3,6,5), wounding the whelp twice. Forte hopes his armour will resist the blows but it cracks under the impact (forte failed both his armour saves, 1,1!) The already stunned whelp comes crashing down to the floor OUT COLD!!!!

Everyone now holds his breath, curious for how the rest of the brawlers in the left corner will act now. will they aid team Nrth in taking down team Hrothgar and their two stormclaws, will they join up with team Hrothgar to deal with team Nrth and take on team Hrothgar later or will they start fighting with eachother?

Meanwhile in the middle the hurling continous, Team nrth manages to wound Kieran(3 hits, 1 wound), but the stromclaw makes his save and returns the favor by holding up his middle finger to Nrth (Team hrothgar missed all their shots! Lol)

Forte his last turn was rather ridiculous with both runner,ramses and forte failing to hit anything! Chef rolled a 6 on his motw but only scored 2 wounds, which forte saved but I worked out wyrsten his rolls first therefor I left chef’s attacks out

[Forté]

Man walks into a bar and asks "how many wolves does it take to knock out a Blood Claw?"

 

Bar tender replies "4. A Stormclaw, Hunter, Blood Claw and a Scout to finish him off."

 

Man says, "you sure those 4 were wolves and not poodles?"

 

 

Sorry but was the best I could come up with. Bugger.

[Zynk Kaladin]

@forte slow clap

[Jarl Kjaran Coldheart]

"Meanwhile in the middle the hurling continous, Team nrth manages to wound Kieran(3 hits, 1 wound), but the stromclaw makes his save and returns the favor by holding up his middle finger to Nrth (Team hrothgar missed all their shots! Lol)

WLK

[Chapter Master Ignis Domus]

C'mon, ye cowards! Ye dare not face the mighty Team Hrothgar in combat! Ye little ninnies, ye spilt forks, ye lily-livered scum! Ah could beat ya wit mah arms tied behand me back en nah a single leg. So there!

[Grimtooth]

Sprinting to I-1 and throwing anything I can get my hands on at Team Hrothgar, targetting Storm Claws specifically. No attacks on Runner, Chef, or Wysten. No attacks in any member of Team Nrth.

[Chapter Master Ignis Domus]

Can we disregard the five per square limit for this only? It would go so well...

 

And to anyone who wants healing: Join us, and your wounds shall be cured by the good doctors!

[Forté]

@forte slow clap

Really....it wasn't worthy ;)

[RunningWolfFenris]

To I-1!!!

 

Throw stuff @Team Hrothgar

[Chapter Master Ignis Domus]

All but Elithern will charge into combat with Ramses and Running, etc, while Elithern chucks stuff at Team Nrth. Yaaaah! Attacks will be focussed on Ramses if possible, and the Stormclaws will heal anyone down, with the other Stormclaw as a priority.

[Chef Wulfen]

down some mjod and then run a intercept course to cut off Elithern and i will be throwing stuff at him till i get there.

[Chapter Master Ignis Domus]

Excellent. A bit of one on one combat, then? Shall we dance?

[Chef Wulfen]

You're next, mate...

[MaveriK]

Hey Mav,

 

How does the pinning and stunned work with ranged attacks in the tavern brawls? I was asking Hendrik and he was not sure of it and asked that I send you a message since you originally wrote these rules.

 

dammit, I had to come out of hiding for this...... anyway,

 

Tavern Brawl (Pinning)

 

Coming under fire without knowing where the shots are coming from in the tavern can be extremely shocking, making the targeted drunkards fighting in the tavern or solo duels, throw themselves flat on the floor. If a drunkard suffers any unsaved wounds from a shooting attack, he or she takes a Ld test to see if the ranged attack was severe enough to sustain a stunned result. From there, he or she must then take take a pinning test. This is a normal Leadership test.

 

(So that's two Ld test in total. I've decided on this because I wanted EVERYONE to have a chance to get into close combat, and I didn't want people to get taken out of the tavern so quickly if they failed their armour saves during the shooting phase. Those who are already stunned, are far more vulnerable during shooting phase as they are already stunned. Stunned results DO NOT stack!) So pretty much I envisioned it to be like a real-life scenario bar fight. Someone is constantly throwing bottles at you, and if you get hit... there is a chance it can cause damage. From there you can't do much but take-cover until the shooting stops. It's as simple as that! at least, I'd like to think so.

 

If a drunkard is pinned, they are unable to aid fellow drunkards, as he or she is stuck in their location until he or she is able to move once again, using the movement rules. Just remember. EVERYTHING thrown at you at the tavern has range! drunkards who are pinned cannot move into close combat, but can be charged at by an opponent. Counter-attack still applies! As long as test are passed, a drunkard may be called upon to take multiple pinning test, slowing their advance to get into close combat with an opponent in the tavern brawl.

 

Remember, this is a tavern brawl with tactics in mind. Slowing down League members with shooting is a smart way to capitalize on strategy, so use it wisely!

 

--EDIT--

Please take note, that you CANNOT target opponents/drunkards who are already locked in combat. You can assemble and build a uber team, but I'd like to think that I've set-up the tavern so that for those few, who knows how to utilize the map, the rules and the movements... they can pretty much keep things balanced. Wolves are cunning, it's not about who's a league member, or has the largest group of allies. In the end, it all comes down to strategy, and luck. May the dice gods favor the bold!
