Borglins - Tower Offense Game (Closed)

[gamecreator]

Nemo moves to E6.

[kida]

Chubby moves to i4

[SamWiser]

Sam moves to E6 and shoots the turret at A7.

[Jibjib]

Jack scurries to D5 and shoots the probe if it comes in range.

[Nerre]

Blackout hurries to get to M10, getting into the cannons blind spot, so the cannon on L10 cannot shot him this turn. According to how the other plasma tower reacted on Not As, it takes a while to rotate and target somebody.

► Show Spoiler

In Turn 2, the cannon only rotated towards Not as, but did not shoot. It only shot at him the next turn. Hope it works the same way here.

[madmartin26]

Jake shoots the probe from where he is as it moves into range, and then moves to D6. If Jack already killed the drone before Jake could shoot, Jake moves to D6 and shoots the turret at A7.

[Theis2]

Theis moves to I5

[Davecom3]

Big John moves to H6.

[Starswords]

K Banger moves to E5

Chubby continues to i5

[madmartin26]

Jake moves to D7 and fires at the new probe.

[Nerre]

Blackout continues further to the south and joins Not As in the "off the map" section, waiting for the rest of his team.

[SamWiser]

Sam moves to E6 and tries to shoot the tower again.

[Davecom3]

I'd think it would be better for Blackout to move just south to the bottom of the map, not off it; thus assuring when the bulk of our forces arrive, it will take the most time for the plasma cannon to fire at us.

Big John moves to G6.

[Nerre]

I expect it to follow me anyway, so it will be 2 turns turned away from the advancing group. Just make sure to bring enough damage in at once, since I did not get it's hp when I got the information about how it deals damage.

I fear that if I move to L11, it might change it's turning direction, or that I will be shot if I end on M11. Not As got shot in the second turn. In the first it seemed to take some time for the cannon to lock on the target, it did not shoot although he seemed to end already in the target area. In the second, it also turnd and shot with him being in the target area.

On the other hand, it can only deal 1d3 damage, while I got 4 hp. But if the upgrade building upgrades it, now I am not linked anymore, it might affect the cannon and kill me. :/

It deals 1d3 damage per gun. And I see two guns on it. Just saying.

[Nerre]

Then I am definitly going off the map.
Thanks a lot for the warning. Does this apply to every gun-information we get? Damage factor times number of barrels?

[Theis2]

Theis moves to H5

[Davecom3]

It's also possible that you could start beating down that tower or hacking it, Nerre. It couldn't hurt you if you attacked it from beneath, and you move fast enough to pull that off. If you successfully hacked it, it might even make it safer for the whole group. If it worries you, you could even put a cog in its system, preventing it from rotating for 2 turns at about an 80% chance until you managed the 50% overtake. You'd be more useful in this method than you could be by leaving, and nearly as safe.

[gamecreator]

Nemo goes to D7 and hits enemy probe if it comes close.

[Nerre]

Okay, I will give it a try. Blackout will not leave, instead switfly land on L11 and try to overtake the twin plasma cannon. If it against his expectations rotates towards him, he will try to escape off the map.
If he manages to overtake it, he will let it rotate it's barrels to the left, targeting the other tower and shoot at it if possible.

You wrote they target a 5x5 area around themselves, right?
Do they do damage to all squares in that, or only one?

They are locking onto a single target (not tile) just as the machine-gun towers. If they had AoE or anything different, it would be noted.

[Starswords]

K Banger will move to D6, or D5 if D6 remains full

The plasma cannon on L10 keeps rotating towards Blackout.

The Development Center upgrades the Probe Factory!

---

- Theis' healbot heals Jack for 1 HP.

- The new probe is destroyed, granting 3VP to Jake.



Tower Infiltration:
- Hardware overheat (Success Chance: 75%): Deals 5 damage and 50% to render the tower disfunctional for the turn.
- Cog in the system (SC 80%): Makes the turret unable to rotate and 50% to render the attack dealing 1 damage less for 2 turns (for each gun).
- Overtake (SC 50%): gain control of the tower, as long as the Techy is connected via the infiltrator.
- Plasma Recalibration (SC: 60%): Decreases the Tower's attack range to a 3x3 grid, but each gun now deals +1 damage.
