Post-Game

JOSHUA: Alright guys, well played. I'll take my prize and money, and Bassium!, you can have your five consolation credits. But now there seems to be a problem. With ten points each, Ekul and Dennis Dunjinman are tied.

{Gaspeau!}

JOSHUA: Okay you two, here's how the tie breaker works. You each are going to give me a mystery character card from your deck, any one you want (besides item or wildcards). Use a forum PM or email to get your choice to me. When I have both your decisions, they'll battle it out and the winner gets second place. Ready?

SHADOW SCYTHE: Hang on, hang on, hang on. The winner gets second place?

JOSHUA: Heh, sorry for the confusion. I have first place, so they're fighting between second and third place.

JOSHUA: Okay Ekul, your card happened to have an elemental advantage over Dennis's. Please choose +1 attack, defense or speed.

EKUL: Speed.

JOSHUA: Alright. Ekul chose Trogdor with 6/3/3 and Dennis chose Mitch Overlord with 5/4/1. Let's see who wins...

Wrestling Time

versus

Cool has an elemental advantage over Lame. Ekul chooses +2 speed.

Trogdor has a higher speed stat. Therefore, he attacks first.

• Trogdor attacks Mitch Overlord!
  • 6 > 4
  • Mitch Overlord is defeated!

JOSHUA: Okay, so Ekul wins second and Dennis wins third. Good work guys, you may now claim your prizes. ...and that's it! We're over here. Boop.

Turn 10

JOSHUA: This is the final turn, y'all! Gooooo... Ekul!

EKUL: Fight that Thomas again. It's my best chance of getting 2nd!

JOSHUA: Alright, one space downwards. No roll nessecary.

Wrestling Time

versus

No elemental advantages.

Thomas has a higher speed stat. Therefore, he attacks first.

• Thomas attacks Kerrek!
  • 4 = 4
  • Kerrek's defence is critical!
  • Kerrek's defence is lowered to 3.
• Kerrek attacks Thomas!
  • 4 > 2
  • Thomas is defeated!

JOSHUA: And since Thomas only has one clear route to the second bottom row, down he goes. Since it doesn't really matter, I'm sure you won't mind if I move Kerrek back to the place he was. If for some reason you don't like this, feel free to fix it.

JOSHUA: Dennis, it's your turn. Please don't make us wait too long.

DENNIS: {running and panting} Roll for Neby!

JOSHUA: Four spaces. You have until tomorrow afternoon to respond before I make the move for you.

{She moves Nebulon up.}

JOSHUA: And now since I'm in the hot spot... I'll just pass and collect my point. Nothing really I can do to add to this. Alright Bassium!, end this game.

BASSIUM!: Can I just pass? I mean it doesn't really matter what I do I lost anyways.

JOSHUA: Yep, that's perfectly reasonable. With one more point to me, this game is over.

Turn 9

JOSHUA: This game is nearly over. Move, Ekul.

EKUL: Move kerrek!

JOSHUA: You roll a two.

EKUL: Schaweet. Attack my own Rather Dashing!

JOSHUA: Elemental advantage to Kerrek.

EKUL: Kerrek gets +2 speed.

Wrestling Time

versus

Lame has an elemental advantage over Smart. Ekul chooses +2 speed.

Rather Dashing has a higher speed stat. Therefore, he attacks first.

• Rather Dashing attacks Kerrek!
  • 2 < 4
  • Kerrek's defence is lowered to 3.
• Kerrek attacks Rather Dashing!
  • 4 > 2
  • Rather Dashing is defeated!

JOSHUA: Rather Dashing falls down to the bottom row. Kerrek gets to move up one space, so pick a direction.

EKUL: I choose to attack Thomas.

JOSHUA: Kerrek goes up one space and Thomas goes down to second bottom row. Dennis, please move Thomas now.

DENNIS: I did. And I'm gonna roll for Someone. The bottom's not clearing up any time soon.

JOSHUA: Oh, it's not your turn just yet. Ekul, choose a direction to move Kerrek up.

Ekul: Into Jhonka, I surepose.

Wrestling Time

versus

No elemental advantages.

Jhonka has a higher speed stat. Therefore, he attacks first.

• Jhonka attacks Kerrek!
  • 3 < 4
  • Kerrek's defence is lowered to 3.
• Kerrek attacks Jhonka!
  • 4 > 1
  • Jhonka is defeated!

JOSHUA: Alright Ekul, move Jhonka down as far as he will go and Kerrek up so your turn will finally be over, you triple-jumper, you.

{Ekul does so.}

JOSHUA: Okay Dennis, what was it you wanted to do again? Draw a new card?

DENNIS: Rolling. No card drawing due to lack of open spots.

JOSHUA: Okay... which card, Nebulon or Thomas?

DENNIS: Tommy. (six.. six...)

JOSHUA: Uh, the maximum spaces they can move is equal to their movement points, so the highest Thomas could possibly go in a single roll is four. Nevertheless, he gets a three. Move him up.

{She does so.}

JOSHUA: And because I totally forgot to do so earlier, let's reshuffle Jhonka's stats.

{Joshua pulls a slot machine, and the numbers 5/2/3 come up.}

JOSHUA: Okay, five attack, two defense and three speed. And now it's my turn to move. I choose the roll of Purducci. {flings down a dice} I roll a two. Up he goes... to the left of Nebulon. Alright Bassium!, it's your call. Do you want to place a card from your hand into the open slot, or do you want to move a card already on the field?

BASSIUM!: I'll move Strong Sad!

JOSHUA: The slowpoke rolls a one. In which of the four possible directions does he move?

BASSIUM!: For some reason up-right!

JOSHUA: Okay, this turn is over. Gimme that point! {glomp}

Turn 8

JOSHUA: Go Ekul!

EKUL: Roll for Jhonka!

JOSHUA: Five; so close.

EKUL: Go to fight Thomas

JOSHUA: You have an elemental advantage. +2 attack, defence or speed?

EKUL: It doesn't really matter, but attack.

Wrestling Time

versus

Moron has an elemental advantage over Silent. Ekul chooses +2 attack.

Jhonka has a higher speed stat. Therefore, he attacks first.

• Jhonka attacks Thomas!
  • 5 > 2
  • Thomas is defeated!

JOSHUA: Alright, Ekul, move Jhonka up one space. Dennis, take Thomas down to the second-bottom row where he gets stuck.

JOSHUA: ...okay, and now make a move. Note that you won't be able to place any new cards down until there's an opening in the bottom row.

DENNIS: Move for Thomas. Dangerman's becoming a threat.

JOSHUA: He rolls a two. Whew...

DENNIS: *schmick*

JOSHUA: And now for Dangeresque I roll a... three! Alright, full frontal assault of Nebulon! With extra speed!

Wrestling Time

versus

Cool has an elemental advantage over Lame. Joshua chooses +2 speed.

Dangeresque has a higher speed stat. Therefore, he attacks first.

• Dangeresque attacks Nebulon!
  • 3 > 2
  • Nebulon is defeated!

JOSHUA: And Nebulon falls down five spaces. Since there's only one place for him to end up, I'll take him there for you. My turn ends, giving me a point. Bassium!, you're up.

BASSIUM!: I'd like to move Strong Mad!

JOSHUA: He rolls a three. Do you want him to attack Nebulon or Strong Sad?

BASSIUM!: To strong Sad up up-right!

JOSHUA: Strong Sad has an elemental advantage. Give him +2 attack, defense, or speed?

BASSIUM!: I'm give him 2+ speed I'm planing ahead!

Wrestling Time

versus

Smart has an elemental advantage over Moron. Bassium! chooses +2 speed.

Strong Sad has a higher speed stat. Therefore, he attacks first.

• Strong Sad attacks Strong Mad!
  • 4 > 2
  • Strong Mad is defeated!

JOSHUA: And so Strong Sad goes up one space and Strong Mad falls back down to the bottom row. If you had given Strong Sad +2 attack, he would have lost. Anyway, as there's only one place for each of your cards to go, I'll move them for you. This turn is over.

Turn 7

JOSHUA: I choose you, Ekulachu! Err...

EKUL: There's only one more card in the deck, KErrek. I'll save you the trouble and post my thing now.

JOSHUA: Alright then. Dennis, you're up.

DENNIS: Roll for Nebulon. He gets a goal shot.

JOSHUA: He rolls a five, which is more than enough to battle Jhonka for the top spot.

Wrestling Time

versus

No elemental advantages.

Jhonka has a higher speed stat. Therefore, he attacks first.

• Jhonka attacks Nebulon!
  • 2 = 2
  • Nebulon's defence is critical!
  • Nebulon's defence is lowered to 1.
• Nebulon attacks Jhonka!
  • 3 > 2
  • Jhonka is defeated!

JOSHUA: And now Dennis starts racking up points again. Ekul, pick a trail for your Jhonka to go down, all six spaces. Upon landing, his stands will get rerolled.

{He moves it down down-left-left-right-left-right.}

JOSHUA: And his new stats are... three attack, one defense, and six speed. What fun.

JOSHUA: And now, I move Dangeresque. Using Super Sam's ultra-secret randomization thing... he rolls a two. That works, I guess. Engage Strong Mad!

Wrestling Time

versus

No elemental advantages.

Dangeresque has a higher speed stat. Therefore, he attacks first.

• Dangeresque attacks Strong Mad!
  • 3 > 2
  • Strong Mad is defeated!

JOSHUA: Bassium!, you have to drop Strong Mad down to the bottom row. Meanwhile, I move Dangeresque one space up to engage Perducci.

Wrestling Time

versus

Cool has an elemental advantage over Lame. Joshua chooses +2 attack.

They have equal speed stats, but Dangeresque initiated the fight. Therefore, he attacks first.

• Dangeresque attacks Perducci!
  • 5 > 1
  • Perducci is defeated!

JOSHUA: Sorry Perducci, but it was for the good of your country. Dangeresque moves up-left, closer to the goal and out of the crowd. Alright Bassium!, choose a spot on the bottom row for Strong Mad to fall down to. Whatever space you don't pick will be Perducci's landing spot.

{Bassium! moves him down right-right}

JOSHUA: And now with Perducci taking up the last bottom spot, it's your turn, Bassium!. You can't place Strong Bad down as there's no room. Do you want to move on of your cards on the board, or put your last deck card into your hand?

BASSIUM!: Pull another.

JOSHUA: You bring up your last card: The Cheat. There's nowhere to place him, so that's the end of your turn.

Turn 6

EKUL: Use Jhonka to attack Perducci!

Wrestling Time

versus

No elemental advantages.

Jhonka has a higher speed stat. Therefore, he attacks first.

• Jhonka attacks Perducci!
  • 2 > 1
  • Perducci is defeated!

JOSHUA: And Perducci goes down... and you start getting points. Dennis, you're up.

DENNIS: I'll roll for Neby once again. *hopes*

JOSHUA: He rolls a four, but you'll lose that if you engage him in compact. Also note that you can't move up and down in the same turn.

DENNIS: Sorry I was out. The Recent changes doesn't show this page often.

JOSHUA: Okay, so you engage Strong Sad. You have an elemental advantage, so do you want to give your card +2 attack, +2 defense or +2 speed?

DENNIS: Attack!

Wrestling Time

versus

Lame has an elemental advantage over Smart. Dennis Dunjinman chooses +2 attack.

Nebulon has a higher speed stat. Therefore, he attacks first.

• Nebulon attacks Strong Sad!
  • 5 > 4
  • Strong Sad is defeated!

JOSHUA: Okay, so now Dennis gets to move Nebulon up one space while Strong Sad drops down one spot. Since this turn has already gone long enough, I'll move Nebulon up-left, as the other way would be plain stupid. And Strong Sad only has one place to go.

{Nebulon goes one space up-left, Strong Sad goes two spaces down-right.}

JOSHUA: And now it's finally my turn. I choose to draw a new card. ...Dangeresque! Okay, I'll place him... right to the right of Mr. Smith. Your move, Bassium!

BASSIUM!: I'd like to draw a new card!

JOSHUA: And you draw up Strong Bad. Do you want to keep him or save him for later?

BASSIUM!: Keep him in my hand!

JOSHUA: Alrighty then.

Turn 5

JOSHUA: And now it's your turn again, Ekul. You know the drill.

EKUL: I'm rolling for Jhonka.

CLAMBUGER: {plorp} You have randomised a 6. This brings Jhonka to one of the spaces on the row below the throne.

EKUL: I'll take the risk of heading directly underneath the throne!

DENNIS: Roll for me.

JOSHUA: For who, Thomas or Nebulon?

DENNIS: Neby. He's got potential.

JOSHUA: Potential, eh? He rolls a three, so move him up.

DENNIS: *schmick*

JOSHUA: No, you have to move him all three spaces. He still has one space to go.

JOSHUA: And now I'll move the Poopsmith up-left... one space. Oop. Okay Bassium!, it's your move. Want to try moving Strong Sad up or what?

BASSIUM!: Nah, I'll move Strong Mad.

JOSHUA: He rolls a three. Where to?

BASSIUM!: To ze Poopsmith!

JOSHUA: I hate you. Your card has an elemental advantage, but since you take forever to move and you'll win with any of the three options, I'll choose +2 attack for you.

Wrestling Time

versus

Moron has an elemental advantage over Silent. Bassium! chooses +2 attack.

Strong Mad has a higher speed stat. Therefore, he attacks first.

• Strong Mad attacks The Poopsmith!
  • 7 > 3
  • The Poopsmith is defeated!

JOSHUA: Okay, I'll drop my Poopsmith back to the middle space. Choose what direction to move up one space to: Do you want to go right and rest or left and wrestle Rather Dashing?

BASSIUM!: To the right!

Turn 4

EKUL: I'd like to draw again.

JOSHUA: Fine by me. You draw... TROGDOOOOORRR!!! Ahem. Do you want to place him down or keep him for later?

EKUL:I'll place him to the far left.

JOSHUA: Alright. Dennis Dunjinman, as you probably don't want to make Thomas move down, will you be drawing a new card?

DENNIS: I draw a card.

JOSHUA: You get Nebulon. Since there's only one available spot and I'm sure you don't want to pass, I'll put him down for you.

{He places Nebulon on the far right.}

JOSHUA: Okay, after much thought, I know what my strategy will be in the next following moves... but for right now, I'll move Perducci and hope to reach the top. {rolls a three again} Yes! That's good enough! Perducci, go up and engage that Thomas!

Wrestling Time

versus

No elemental advantages.

They have equal speed stats, but Perducci initiated the fight. Therefore, he attacks first.

• Perducci attacks Thomas!
  • 5 > 2
  • Thomas is defeated!

JOSHUA: And the throne and all its precious points are mine. Dennis Dunjinman, please finish this move by bringing Thomas down four spaces, one for every speed stat. He'll land anywhere in the fourth row from the bottom.

{Dennis moves Thomas down-left-left-left.}

JOSHUA: And now Bassium!, it's your turn again. Want to move one of your two guys again, or draw another card?

BASSIUM!: I'll move Strong Sad up as far.

JOSHUA: He rolls a two. Move at will!

{Bassium! Moves Strong Sad up-left up-left}

JOSHUA: Horray, this turn is finally done.

Turn 3

JOSHUA: What ya gonna do, Ekul?

EKUL: The only thing I can really do is draw.

JOSHUA: You draw Jhonka, the wildcard.

EKUL: I'm placing him seconsd to the left.

JOSHUA: His stats are... {pulls a slot machine} 2 attack, 2 defense, and 6 speed. Huh.

DENNIS: Am I next? I'll roll if I am.

JOSHUA: If you want to move upward, you can only go one square. Do you want to fight for the throne?

DENNIS: Sure. I control the throne out of this wrestle.

Wrestling Time

versus

No elemental advantages.

Rather Dashing has a higher speed stat. Therefore, he attacks first.

• Rather Dashing attacks Thomas!
  • 2 = 2
  • Thomas's defense is critical!
  • Thomas's defense is lowered to 1.
• Thomas attacks Rather Dashing!
  • 4 > 2
  • Rather Dashing is defeated!

JOSHUA: Alright Ekul, Rather Dashing goes down six spaces. Take him down. Thomas is now in the throne and starts getting points.

{Rather Dashing falls down.}

JOSHUA: And now I'll move Perducci. Come on, good number, good number... {rolls a three} Alright, I can handle that.

{Moves him up left-right-right.}

JOSHUA: Okay Bassium!, do you want to draw a new card or move one of your current ones?

BASSIUM!: I'll move Strong Mad up.

JOSHUA: Re rolls a two. Choose a path for him to take, or make him battle Rather Dashing if you want, as he's in your path.

BASSIUM!: Yeah sure I'll have him fight Rather Dashing... Now I don't know what to do.

JOSHUA: Well, first we move Strong Mad into Rather Dashing's space, initiating the wrestle. Then we let the stats do the rest.

Wrestling Time

versus

Smart has an elemental advantage over Moron. Ekul chooses +2 attack.

Rather Dashing has a higher speed stat. Therefore, he attacks first.

• Rather Dashing attacks Strong Mad!
  • 4 > 2
  • Strong Mad is defeated!

JOSHUA: As you can see Bassium!, Ekul's character had an advantage over yours according to the chart in the manual, so it gave him a bonus. Then, with his higher speed, he attacked first and his attack destroyed your defense. He wins and moves up a space while your character falls back three spaces, one for each movement point.

{Joshua moves Strong Mad back down.}

JOSHUA: And since he's so close to the bottom, there's only one place for him to go. Sorry. Ekul, Rather Dashing gets to jump up one space. Which way?

EKUL: Left!

Turn 2

JOSHUA: Okay Ekul, your call.

EKUL: I think I'd be a fool not to move. So I'll move.

JOSHUA: Ye rolleth a three.

EKUL: W00t.

{Rather Dashing moves into the throne and starts collecting points.}

JOSHUA: Alright Dennis Dunjinman, your turn. Move Thomas or draw a new card?

DENNIS: Move. It's getting crowded.

JOSHUA: That's true. {rolls a dice} You roll a four. Must be your lucky day.

DENNIS: Nice. I moved. Now, onto the next alien on my next turn.

JOSHUA: That's later. Right now it's my turn, and I choose to move Purducci up. Come on, good number... {rolls a one} CRAP!

{Moves Perducci up-right.}

JOSHUA: Okay Bassium!, do you want to draw another card or move one of the cards you have on the field?

BASSIUM!: I would like to move Strong sad up as far as he can go!

JOSHUA: Which is not very far. He rolls a two. Maximum speed! Please place him somewhere new.

BASSIUM!: {Moves Strong Sad up twice along the wall} Phew that was confusing, I kept getting the postition wrong!

Turn 1

JOSHUA: So let the game begin. Ekul, do you want to draw a card from your deck, move Rather Dashing, or apply your item to someone and then move?

EKUL: I shall embark upon my peasant's quest to the top!

JOSHUA: {rolls some dice} He rolls a four. Not too bad. Move him up any way you like.

EKUL: Allrighty! I've moved so that nobody can wrestle with me.

JOSHUA: Fine. So Dennis Dunjinman, do you want to move Thomas or draw a new card?

DENNIS: Move him up.

JOSHUA: He rolls a two. Put him in his new spot! Hmm... I don't like The Poopsmith's speed stat. I think I'll draw and place a new card. {draws a Perducci card} Okay... I'll place him right next to Thomas.

{He does so.}

JOSHUA: And now Bassium!, same question: move or draw?

BASSIUM!: Draw!

JOSHUA: Very well, but let's wait for Dennis to move Thomas along the board first... {she moves Thomas} Okay, you draw... Strong Mad! Do you want to place him down or save him for later?

BASSIUM!: Can I move Strong Sad?

JOSHUA: Nope, you sure can't. However, because you didn't know this, I'll let you undo your draw and move him if you like.

BASSIUM!: Oh sorry, didn't realize. I'll place Strong Mad in the center.

Setup Process

JOSHUA: All abooooaaarrdd!!!

BASSIUM!: This might be pretty bad for me... Never played before you know.

JOSHUA: {blinks} That was fast. And don't worry, Bassium!, everyone but me here are first-timers. So... I guess it's time for everyone to draw a card.

• Joshua draws a The Poopsmith card. (Speed: 2)
• Ekul draws a Nunchuck-Gun card. (Item)
• Bassium! draws a Strong Sad card. (Speed: 2)
• Dennis Dunjinman draws a Thomas card. (Speed: 4)

JOSHUA: Since Ekul's card is an item, he draws again.

• Ekul draws a Rather Dashing card. (Speed: 6)

JOSHUA: So the order now is Ekul will move first, Dennis Dunjinman second... and now randomly... I move third and Bassium! moves fourth. Ekul, place your Rather Dashing card somewhere on the bottom row.

EKUL: I'll take the center row!

JOSHUA: Alright. Dennis Dunjinman, your move. Place Thomas somewhere.

SHIM-SHAM-SAM: Okay... sign-up's still open... so I just draw a card? {pause} Anybody? {pause} Hello?

JOSHUA: Sorry, but this room is full. We just hadn't changed the sign yet. {punts Shim-Sham-Sam away}

DENNIS: Left corner.

JOSHUA: And I'll place Poopsmith to the right of Rather Dashing, away from that evil alien. Now go place Strong Sad somewhere, Bassium!.

BASSIUM!: I'll place Strong Sad on the farthest right.

JOSHUA: Placed. Remember guys, you can update the board and stats yourselves. I don't have to do it all.

BASSIUM!: I know I had an edit conflict because I was about to do it, I was learning how.
