Sweet, I was wrong.

Try to destroy the weapon without harming the humans if it can be done with no more than a 20% chance of harming the humans. Otherwise, wait. No need to prove the angry nut right.

Hm...well, I suppose that we should assign arbitrary units...let's say 1 unit of ore per week per miner (for iron, rarer ores would probably have lower yields), and that it takes...let's say 10 units of ore to make one unit of metal (iron, gold, whatever), and one unit of iron is enough to equip one soldier in iron armor and weapon. Obviously, iron would need to be refined to make steel; this would take one week by one metalworker to refine 5 units of iron into 5 units of steel. Do these numbers smell funny? Guess where I got them from. Everyone, let me know if you can think of more realistic ones.

mesor, do you want all of your miners mining for iron ore or do you want to try finding other ores, too?

Let's see...
--Firey breath weapon
--Scales
--Strength and toughness
--Wings
--Various dragon-based immunities, notably extreme temperatures, fire, and some magic

--Various dragon-based weaknesses, notably ice magic, blunt weapons (dragon bones can be surproisingly frail, especially in the wings), and some other magic
--A target of dragonslayers
--Stands out
--Clumsy
--Not stealthy

Some of the downsides are as much personal things as racial, but meh.

I will grab Blenk, toss him near the edge, and open the box.

Create army of Moai-Avatars. Siege the CAPTALIST FILTH'S establishments.
[4] You have 1,000 Moaivatars. [1] They mistake you for capitalist until you point out you don't pay them. They then go on strike.

Possess Jupiter
[2] Still Deimos.

GM TURN:
Cr. Kong uses his godlike Dr. Manhattan powers to [6] destroy 411 of the 1,000 Moaivatars, most of whom were considering ending the strike, and over 8,200 demons. There is a rain of rock both Martian and Moaivatarian, as well as demonflesh. Doomburger [6] bounces the rain onto Dr. Kong, who [4] turns it into more Doomburgers and materials for the new Doomburger opening in the last human colony.
The demons, angry at Dr. Kong, [5v4] tear Doomburger to the ground despite Dr. Kong killing hundreds of them.

Oh, and I moved the character list to the OP.

Explode and respawn! Pick up my Claimh and try to get around the boss to attack it.
Oh, right. [12*5] 60 damage dealt to boss.
[6] You attack the boss, dealing [25*5] 125 damage but getting your sword stuck. Your hand hurts, too, for [2*1] two damage.

RESPAWN

SPECIAL ABILITY: COIN SHOT; AT TFB; 10GP

You respawn [2] with the Coin Shot ability. It's a 20-foot cone which costs 20 gp and deals 2d6*4 damage to those within if successful. [6] It is. Kinda. Everyone takes [4*4] 16 damage, except [2,2,1,3,1,4] TFB, who takes 8 damage, and Objective, who takes 10.

use mask to warp self into magical scyther, use fury swipes.
isn't that ring mine?
Which ring?
[5] You are a magical Scyther, by which I assume you mean the Pokemon because otherwise it would just be scythe. And not have fury swipes, [5] which deal [15*5] 75 damage to TFB.

Not bad. Only one of you injured the party.

BOSS TURN:
TFB casts Summon Goblin VII. [2] It fizzles as Greenstarfanatic uses TFB as a sheathe. Furious, TFB [2] fizzles another spell due to Unholy_Pariah...Wow, you REALLY didn't fail!

So, you know, doing things like sedating Asea's character before he kills himself.
LOL. Well, officially he got no character, so we shouldn't worry :)


As for official positions I think it's redundant, we already have roles assigned
Titles could be nice, though.

We at S.P.R.I.N have riged a copyer to print money for the space program, sadly all we had was a one doler bill...
...That IS illegal, you know, right?

Yeah, it actually makes sense.  Dex's troops are from another universe, they would likely be a different size, just because of evolution.
I find it more likely that they would be the same size, more or less, and look different than that they would look the same except for size. Anyways, why is the Might's side so much smaller?

Quote
Also, it scales, so Freeform and Dex are even.  Not to mention, they could always draw more map if they really, really wanted.  And as you just saw, Freeform could easily make his units smaller.  But he didn't, Dex made his small.  He mentions that too.  So yeah, it looks nice as it is.
I suggest they do use that smaller-scale image.
Well, the human form is a fairly effective one, if they were on similar planets, which in theory they would be, since very few types of planets can support life, they should look the same.  Or you know, just chalk it up to wacky coincidence.  But it really isn't our place to tell Dex and Freeform how to do their duel.
If you use evolutionary lack-of-coincidence to justify something, don't chalk something else which is much less probable up to coincidence. And I was giving a suggestion, not an order. I just think freeformschooler's mockup of a shrunken battlefield looks better than the one they were using. It also makes the bridge less of a random thing they could probably avoid by jumping and more of an important tactical consideration.

New idea for interesting life. Let's all decide on 1 to 2 positions we would like to attain within our ship (no captain). Just one thing that we have to keep charge of but still ask for suggestions regarding if it needs to change and also is in charge of making sure that it's condition is squared away and also improved when possible. That way we can have a little competition and infighting for our groups. ("I'm telling you, we can't buy that new scanning system. We need a new fuel disperser for the engines!" "Are you crazy? This isn't some damned hot rod you had back planet side. We need to know what's out there!" Etc.)

I'll post mine: Away team management/ scanning systems.

Spoiler (click to show/hide)

PS:Don't let this suggestion detract from the fight at hand.
Making official positions sounds like a good idea.  I (and wyrm's character, you're the actual doctor here, right?) can be in charge of individual crew welfare.  So, you know, doing things like sedating Asea's character before he kills himself.
Charlie gathers up medical supplies in preparation for casualties.
Sounds good. I'll claim the title of Head Officer of Medicine; you can be the Head Field Medic and the Senior Medical Assistant.

George will locate sedatives. And suggest locking the ship's locker.

Alright, then. Vonyx, are you OK with mesor's suggestion?

I'll draw up some population lists for the NPC factions, but for now Kedly, Tellemurius, and Vonyx need to discuss import/export agreements with mesor and deny.

Fix the HR-10 and get Jim to work on the giant robot we just built, preferably improving its stability first.
The HR_10 is not broken, it's just part of a humongous mehca. Aside from that...good.


[6] As per LordSlowpoke's suggestion, Macropolis is engulfed in flames. Why? Why??? Anyways, once you do that, [2] you and Jim try to find some way to improve Jebediah Deluxe but fail.

Should we write out those who didn't reply with populations/didn't have good populations, make them NPC factions, or wait some more?
