Tweed How did you get past this gay fight? I feel like I'm hitting a brick wall here.
Gib the caster lady with the hag spells in the first round so no demon, cast earthquake on the masses. Lose out on xp this way but it gets the job done.

Okay, I think I've had enough of this. Chapter 3 is a brick wall. I'm restarting with a different party.

*laughs hysterically in kobold*

Fights with the black dragon wizard go like this, mass frailty, mass hold, crqash boom bam. I can clear most of his friends except the super psychic treant, but by then half the party is dead and held and the dragon himself is all but untouchable. The white dragon and the frost giants go like this, celerity x4, breath weapon, held, trip, grapple, kaboom! Leaving my poor little gladiator all by herself to deal with an army of giants. She's good, but not that good.

If I had to do over I think I would roll 2 gladiators, a psion, a warlock, a cleric, and a wizard.

So what are your preferred psionic feats? Improved stomp, improved initiative, improved concertation, anything else that is a must?

At least spell range 1, take talent and sculpted energy cone and energy wave later, your party will thank you for it. Do NOT pick psychic healing it's broken at the moment and does nothing, if it did my party would at least survive one whole more round before total destruction.
Why Warlock?

After beating up Pizarra she joins you and she's a warlock, turns out they're pretty damn good with that psionic/wizard spell combo of theirs, they compliment each other very nicely.

I guess it's the Bb. Also, why not make it easier on yourself and use the hints?

Or that the D in destroyer is actually a Db. Who knows, the formatting's weird.

Figured, it made sense as a melody. It should be a C# rather than a Db tho, shame on you Pierre.

edit: It's rather pretty, so I made a short recording

My community died, again. I'm posting here for the time being. Until a new /vg/ thread pops up. Anyways, here high lights of last night's playthrough!

By the gods! We've been flanked! Flanked! By the abhorrent vermin! Quickly men, fall back on me! We mustn't let them take the ground!

Ahhh! The enemy is too strong! We're suffering heavy losses! Our forces are being wiped out one by one! Ahhh!

Thanks Infinitron! Lads! Pierre the mad man does it yet again! Yesterday I came across a spider queen. And not just any spider queen. No lads, she's by far the strongest one yet! She's able to cast Prismatic Void! A very dangerous spell that completely annihilates my party. Which is just AWFUL!

I've been given some tipes though. Mainly:
1. Buff someone with True Seeing and fire an Arrow of Slaying into her face
2. Cast Prismatic Spray and pray that it kills her just like Prismatic Void kills your party
3. Feeblemind her
4. Position your melee so that they can rush her as soon as she spawns. Grapple her and then Pin her every round to prevent spell casting. Will need True Seeing to look past her concealment.

I've also been told to use ready v spell in order to have her fail her spell.

I took the tips to heart and managed to get far with the encounter. Until... These two dudes came out of nowhere.

Suffice to say, it resulted in me losing most of my party. Only the Barbarian and Saint William stood their ground. Yet, they too couldn't last long.

I really like the encounter design. Pierre did a job of making each and every single encounter challenging. There's really no such thing as a trash encounter. Which is marvelous! I am planning on spending the whole day on this encounter. Hopefully I get lucky and best it!

I am currently stuck on another encounter. This one is amaze balls. You're attempting to invade a fort that is heavily guarded. You're constantly being swarmed with enemy units while attempting to breach the fort. It makes sense because the fort you are attempting to breach is owned by an evil wizard who has access to more resources than you. So of course the big bad will have an army guarding his fort. The entrance to the fort is guarded by the best guardsmen, while the ranged units and spellcasters are in a high elevated position. This prevents melee units from rushing them. They are also well buffed as well. This is all good encounter design. The problem is that it is super difficult for me!

I was doing fine up until a certain point. Monk woman was even holding her ground and killing the big baddies.

Then... It all started to fall apart... The game was sending more units than I was prepared to deal with..

And just when I breached the front gates. More units came out to greet me!

This is the point where my formation started to break and people begin to die on me one by one. I did not expect to face this many units. In retrospect I should have expected that something terrible was going to happen. It's Pierre we're talking about, I should have expected such encounters from him. I guess I just got too cocky!

I accidentally placed monk woman in a terrible position, she was flanked and went down, but not until taking at least one of the enemy with her!

Some more mistakes were made. My surviving units were placed in a horrible position. Again, another mistake on my part.

Eventually only Lucy the Great Wizard remained... but due to bad positioning and me forgetting about the stinking cloud she was in... She couldn't do much due to being nauseated. So she too fell. And just like that "Game Over".

My biggest mistakes were bad positioning and overall terrible planning. I plan on spending more time on this encounter. Hopefully I best this one!
