Re: [HOE] "Apocalypse Now" Scenario, stones weakness
mastercard. i disagree with the one round thing. if stone is around most
of the pcs are going to die, that just that. second if it is his arrogance
stone will make a mistake when he has the upper hand. but the thing is that
you don't make it through the hoe world by being arrogant. stone is a cold
blooded killer that knows exactly what he is and is not capable of. and as
for ghosting away. if the party does not have some form a magical attack to
hit him with while he is in this form then bad news, but what the hell kind
of dumbass party does not have a doomi or syker, i swear to god if a templar
gets close enough to stone to do his thing, stone should disembowel the
little bastered. ass for spirit trap one stone is 250 years old and the
other 500, if they haven't seen this trick before then well they deserve
what they get. of coarse once you have the one in the trap the other
attacks. and speaking of ghosting i have a question, this is my theory so
bear with me. and this might have been posted already but i don't care. if
stones or any other harrowed ghosts his ghosting ability affects anything he
is touching, this would affect stones guns but not the bullets once they
have left the gun, the party is still a bunch of dead biaznitches, cause now
he doesn't have to run.
