Warhammer Fantasy: Divided Loyalties - an Advisor's Quest

Voted best in category in the Users' Choice awards.
Reader mode
I would normally assume Drycha has tons of experience with Ulgu and could beat Mathilde in a counterspell duel, but seeing Drycha's unmodified Martial and Intrigue, I'm not making any assumptions anymore. She might have Learning 20 for all I know.
 
We're winning?

Counter, and take her head.
Can't have her learning from the experience.

Because of there's anyone that holds a grudge as good as a dwarf it's Drycha
 
On a side note imagine how Drycha quest must be reacting right now, the quest must be panicking since they just got bisected by an invisible enemy with a cannon sword.
 
How is nobody talking about the true heroes here? Those woodsman were absolutly crushing it. The rest of Kislev had an amazing performance too, but Boris and the Ice Witches are hero characters. Those woodsmen were just chopping, it's amazing.

Also, is this a case where the only cavalry (Mathilde) was technically from the empire?
 
On a meta level, I think that if we vote Dragonflask, there will be a roll of something (Martial?) against Learning to see if we can toast her before she finishes her teleport, whereas trying to counter her is Learning against Learning. So counter seems better from a likelihood to win the roll perspective, but then she's still in the world and able to cause trouble, whereas if we win the rolloff for Dragonflask, I think we win the fight immediately.

I'm going for Dragonflask, because I love the Gamble.

Being away from Athel Loren might well be a significant reduction in ability on that front, too.
 
She didn't feel like a millennia-old super powerful dryad, a potted plant would have been more troublesome. She will probably fumble her rolls or something and die just like that🙄

I think flask might be a flat d6 or something to see how it goes like that ambush vs Alberich, with her needing to roll high to get away.

She's also severely wounded now. Even if she doesn't feel the pain, a fair amount of her ulgu was probably in the bottom half of her body. That might help too.

But yeah, Mathilde's matched her so far, and I kinda expect Intrigue to be Drycha's main stat, against Mathilde's learning.

This isn't helpful unless all you want to do is make Boney feel bad. I respect him and all he's done and I would never disparage his work. I will accept this in time, so I'm just trying to wrap my head around it. Statements like this are more inflammatory than they are constructive.
 
Also, dragonflask. Boney said we have the time for it, and there could not be a better moment to use it than right here, right now.

Consider this: End the invasion of Kislev's soil by chugging from a flask of buring liquid, after charging in on a horse.
 
I am leaning towards Pursue due to liminal realms weaker borders to gods and we might get a chance to permanently kill Drycha instead of her spirit abandoning her physical body or something along those lines.

Nah, it feels like a specialist who is normally very good about being able to control the variables to ensure all their situational bonuses stack up wound up getting caught in a situation where they couldn't get them to stack up against someone with a similar approach that was able to get their bonuses to stack up.
