Since it turns out this was an SKU battlefield, technically you've been on the clock since you saw your first pile of bone chips on the way here. > Loudly announce an emergency smoke break for all your SKU-approved Followers.

We have to be careful here. The SKU executives are pretty nasty and can afflict us with the mark of shame known as Red Texting.

 Final update!We're going to monkey paw our way out of trouble. 312 complete:   As a member in good standing of the SWU we turn to 198, right into the battle of Bilgeton Plain:  Welp, we're boned. This isn't really a winnable fight unless our army is really large, and we've been pretty inefficient about swapping out parts and stuff. Running away isn't much of an option either. BUT we did randomly pick up an item from a barrel tucked away in an optional part of the game - the Monkey's Paw, and we still have some wishes left on it. Let's turn to 264 and finish this thing off.  Well, it's not the best ending, but it's an ending. I'd like to thank y'all for playing along once again. I'll make a PDF version of this adventure and add it to the first post like I usually do. Thanks! It's been real.

tbh I expected y'all to go for Aggie and the cauldron but as usual just when I had everything worked out y'all decided to go in a completely different direction. We never did get to see the wizard in the end even if we did wind up lodging with him permanently

We failed to murder Sigbort, I am truly ashamed of us. Also we never boned any witches which is also shameful.

Yes! An unsatisfying yet livable existence, just what the union wanted. What did you have planned before we ruined it all with socialist blindness?

Twenty Four posted:Maybe not the best ending we could have gone for, but a really good adventure. The mini game was the best. Yeah I really enjoyed putting that together and I'll probably do more stuff like that pretty soon. Outrail posted:Yes! An unsatisfying yet livable existence, just what the union wanted. The idea was that we were supposed to continue either to Aggie or the tower, find out more about Necronimo and then we'd either side with the wizard (against the union, who as you just saw are self-serving bastards), side with Aggie and chuck the wizard out, or side with ourselves and screw everyone over. I was surprised that people didn't take to the OBU more as well - they were based on the IWW (a radical trade union) whereas the SWW is more of a normal, mainline union that mostly looks out for its existing members. I'm happy enough with the way it went though, the monkey paw manoeuvre is pretty much par for the course with these threads but I really didn't see it coming. Also I thought we'd tgo looking for the ten-foot pole but meh. s0m3 guy posted:yo SIB do you know if herman ever made vhs game tapes like this?? If there was money in it, he probably took a swing at it. I think Sword of the Bastard Elf got a terrible VHS board game adaptation

One of these days we need to burn Bilgeton to the ground, assuming we can find another of Herman's lost "treasures." (Really good thread and a lot of fun as always, sir)

Excellent work sir. Though I'm still annoyed at missing the Goblin King. And we should have kept the shears. Thanks a lot, goons. Now I'm off to play another round of Space Bastards.

Cheers, well keep an eye out for the recovered version of this book which I guess I'll have patched together in 9 months or so. I can't guarantee it'll run exactly the same as this (every edition of this idiot's work is a bit different for whatever reason) but you'll be able to see what would have happened with the Goblin King, Aethelweird or any number of other things we missed out on, skipped over or avoided. I might be able to find a computer adaption as well, it depends on what comes to hand and what Two-Fisted Steve will sell me.

Nyaa posted:[CYOA] Let's not visit - the wizard of warlock tower. at least in Sword of the Bastard Elf we got the sword and in Void Racers we did some racing and got to the Void. Ah well. Next time we can do Codename: CyberFISTS but never punch anything or make any attempt to do whatever the plot is strongly hinting we should do anyway here's the PDF of this game which I've made in case y'all want a memento: https://goo.gl/F14ulf If you want to find out the other ways to go well then buy the book if I ever reprint it. Finally a plug: if you're interested in seeing more of this stuff consider backing my patreon which is possibly the best value patreon in existence as I've never charged anyone anything. Or join the facebook group. Either way you'll be pestered with updates including the upcoming game I'm definitely making about GBS. I don't mind if you don't do either of those things though, I'll probably keep on making stuff like this. Thanks again for playing The Wizard of Warlock Tower

I might be confusing books here but I distinctly remember a post-apocalyptic CYOA book that included a few recipes by Herman. I can still remember how the "Mock rat stew" stank my kitchen for days. Was that in Cyberfists?
