If we get to the Captain's Ball section of the book make sure to say "Mind if I cut shin on this dance?!" to the Vice-Admiral and then stab them in the shins.

poisonpill posted:I am fully in favor of trying to court the Admiral's fiancée but we should have the elf's fancy hat to go with that cloak from later on if we want to be fashionable so let's attack the elves. Yeah you really have to plan ahead pretty far in advance to have a decent chance of success.

Our opponent will have a combat score of 8-13, meaning that we need to spend a minimum of 3 Essence and roll a max of 6 to beat his minimum roll. So to even have a good chance we'll need to put in a full 5 to have a decent chance of winning. But we're young, dumb, and full of Essence, so let's do it!

Is there a benefit to dual-wielding weapons? Take the sword either way, though, because you never know what sort of kooky thing these books might ask for.

Equip Sword - The entire reason we spent the essence in the arm was to use it, after all. Shears in Barrel - It makes every transplant cost 1 less, and that adds up! Eat Rat - Sorry ratty, but as good of a friend you are you're a better health potion. Your sacrifice will (possibly) not be in vain! As far the skele-gang, we should try to communicate with them in our native tongue; Skorse (skeleton + morse) Code. If the robed one is a fellow boney-bro then he'll understand and we can talk, if he isn't he'll be oblivious to the soft rattling of Skorse Code.

Blizzy_Cow posted:So can we steal his sword? It's difficult and leads to a very controversial ending where its revealed we are the skeleton of the bastard elf that was sent back in time to assassinate himself, thus creating a time paradox. It was universally panned by the fans at the time, but did spawn a few spinoffs.

Dinosaurmageddon posted:If we harvest everything we automatically win the first round and deal 5 damage. Not quite. We still have to roll over their base Espirit score, we only stop our opponents from rolling any d6s for having Hands. And if we win, we don't deal five damage, we just make a free attack using a bonus 5 Espirit. Still though, that's a pretty sweet deal.
