So what we have: Into the finals: Redtusk: -8 Health, 1 injury Manfryd Grimm, -5 health Normyn: -5 health Owen Roxton: -10 Health Preston Oakheart: -4 Health Aubrey Ambrose: -6 Health If needed to fill out the field: Aemon Flowers: -9 Health PC's: Davos Balon Daeron Roland Pending resolution: Mikel Robyn Addam (Probably opting out). If Addam skips it, we're probably looking at 12 participants (Aemon can be tossed in to fill out that number), gut reaction says 3 groups of 4 or 2 groups of 6. Some of the original teams may have more than 2 in them? [OOC: Could narrow things down further by sacrificing Addam's team (including Aubrey Ambrose) to take out a non-Starling team of NPCs, and shift Roland to Daeron's team in place of Aemon flowers? Cuts numbers down further while giving credit to Addam and Aubrey for previous rolls and team construction. Similarly, happy to eliminate Roland and an equivalent NPCs if that makes things easier. Much as I'd like to fight beneath Wildfyre!]

PC's: Davos Balon Daeron Roland Mikel
Pending resolution: Robyn (Probably out, but doesn't change number of people through to the next round) Addam (Will be out if nothing else changes)
That looks like 10 people getting through the gauntlet, an annoying number to split up into groups (8 or 12 would be much better) unless there's a possibility for surviving melee teams to clash.

PC's: Davos Balon Daeron Roland Mikel
10 (11 with Aemon) to play with, want to whittle down to 4 or 6.
Surviving teams: -Roland -Aubrey
Daeron+Aemon (If we include Aemon)
-Balon -Normyn
Leaning towards setting up 1x2v2 and 3x1v1 or 2x2v2 and 1x1v1 with the 10 we have, that should yield 4-5 in the final in the first case and 3-5 in the second, and then if necessary, can run Aemon in 1v1 against the most competent looking NPC of the ones who "bowed out" to bring the number to 4 or 6 if needed.

Yeah, can have a Walgrave vs Aemon duel if needing someone to fill out the field of the last scene, allows us to have 5x1v1 if people want. Surviving teams can either stick together (for 2v2 scene) or split up, if sticking together neither Aubrey or Normyn is particularly interested in playing second fiddle so there would be an opposed Status (Command) test to try and make them follow your lead. The new leader makes any associated decisions as noted below. Roland+Aubrey Aubrey leadership: 5d6k4+2 22Balon+Normyn Normyn Leadership: 5d6k4 19Picking targets-1 Combat round of brief pause, a Greater Action may be spent to take extra time on the warfare test, or one may take CyB. -Warfare (Tactics) TN 9 -Initiative TN 9 --Success on both tests: +3 DoS --Participants are ranked by DoS, highest scoring may select which other participant to engage. --If Participants score the same DoS, rerolls are used as tie-breaks. --If a team picks a single participant, or the other way around, a second participant must join to form a temporary two-man team to create a 2v2. --Aemon and Walgrave by default will do a 1v1 if needed, but can enter the fray to prevent any weirdness.

Balon+Normyn Normyn Leadership: 5d6k4 19If there are no bonuses to the Status (Command) test then Balon can't beat a 19 so he'll follow Normyn's lead.

[OOC: as above with Balon! And happy for Roland/Aubrey to be used to cancel out an opposing couple of characters to speed/simplify]

I'll figure out some easy algorithm for whether or not an NPC will take CyB or extra time, hopefully done by the time other PC's have rolled.

Okay, so I think to make it easy-ish:
Redtusk: -8 Health, 1 injury, takes CyB Manfryd Grimm, -5 health, takes CyB. Normyn: -5 health (Balon attached), hmm, trusts his warfare to be high enough, so CyB. Preston Oakheart: -4 Health, takes extra time. Aubrey Ambrose: -6 Health (Roland attached), takes CyB
Needs rolls (and decision on CyB/extra time) Davos Daeron Mikel

Damage taken vs Owen Roxton doesn't count since it was all about whittling the field down, so Mikel would be at 10 now I think. Redtusk tactics, iniative: 4d6k3 10 6d6k4-1 16Manfryd Tactics, Iniative: 4d6k3 13 6d6k4-2 18Normyn Tactics, Iniative: 5d6k4 19 6d6k4-2 15Preston tactics, iniative: 5d6k4 13 5d6-2 13Aubrey tactics, iniative: 4d6k3 15 6d6k4-1 12Aubrey rerolls: 5#4d6k3 14 13 14 13 13 5#6d6k4-1 18 14 18 15 11Redtusk rerolls: 5#4d6k3 8 16 11 11 15 5#6d6k4-1 16 18 16 9 17Manfryd rerolls: 5#4d6k3 14 14 13 10 12 5#6d6k4-2 15 14 15 20 13So we have: Normyn: 8 Davos: 7 Manfryd: 6.2 Aubrey: 6.1 Redtusk: 6 Daeron: 5-Pending rerolls Mikel: 5-Pending rerolls Preston: 5-Pending rerolls So Daeron and Mikel needs tie-breaker rerolls (if they're not picked out by others first). It looks like Normyn decides first, and "anyone but Manfryd Grimm"-logic leaves the Aubrey/Roland pairing as the safest option to go for...except he doesn't like his chances much vs Roland or Aubrey, as those are probably next on the list of top contenders seeing that Redtusk isn't in too good of a shape after going it solo, so in that case, it all points towards Davos, meaning there's a chance of having Manfryd, but seems to give the best odds of pulling through. Manfryd: 1: Help Davos, 2-3: Aubrey/Roland, 4: Daeron, 5: Mikel: 6: Preston: 1d6 4(Figured he went with 50% go after tough opponent to eliminate rival, 50% focus on something more reasonable)....tough luck for Daeron. Aubrey+Roland can go after Redtusk, Preston or Mikel. Whoever they don't pick must chose between going after Aubrey/Roland or Balon/Normyn. In terms of preferences, Aubrey doesn't have any so: Aubrey goes 1: Redtusk, 2: Mikel, 3: Preston: 1d3 3That leaves Redtusk, methinks for ease of speed he happens to pick to side with Davos so we can get PC on NPC fights. So scene 1: Davos+Redtusk - Balon+Normyn Scene 2: Daeron - Manfryd Scene 3: Aubrey+Roland -Preston+Mikel

So emerging from duels:
Davos* Balon* Roland Daeron
Pending: Mikel/Aubrey
*But if they are hacking away at each other, then I see two options: 1. They both count as "too spent" for the final scene (but get glory credited as if being allowed to participate but bowing out). 2. That duel is part of the final scene somehow.
