Stairs. Else I cannot think of any more further down. Currently.
-Minion charge expended-
I need myself a companion. When I meet another battle. But now it is not the time for them to appear. Thus, I expend my charge to get myself a Summoning Rune (One time use, when thrown and hit to the ground, create a 5 Ice BD 15 HP Snowman. Also ice spikes will shoot at every direction when thrown and hit to the ground.)
+1 Blinky.

SP Orb 18/25
Quick Fix for Ice Staff(Is 25 a "quick" fix? lolol) 14/25

You guessed correctly! The seal fades away and allows you to pass. You proceed to the next puzzle.
Nyarly plays the Flute of the Servitors and summons a Dimensonal Shambler.
Revan knocks off the second lowest HP Archer Ghost by picking up a missed arrow and returning it back to sender.

Shambler summoned for the next round! You'll lose all your entities between events/episodes, so I'll keep it in reserve.
========[End-of-Turn Events]========
The Inferno Tower and the Rabbit of Caerbannoeg have no targets.
Ninjatwist_ attempts to pour water on the Acolyte's head to take advantage of the Acolyte's drowsy state, but the splashes of water wake the Acolyte up and alert him to the attack, thus giving him time to hold his breath!
The Anti-Mook Turret has no targets in sight.
The Baby Zombies cannot find any targets.
The Snow Golem cannot find any targets.
The Weeping Angel cannot find any targets.
The Bloodstained King remains to bodyguard the Cultists.
The Acolyte repulses Ninjatwist_ away and takes in the losing nature of the events.
THE ACOLYTE: Oh, hell, this is a bad situation.
The Acolyte then retreats and speeds towards a nearby bay!
CONGRATULATIONS! You have finished the gameplay part of Episode 4: Counter! I'll be creating a story post soon, likely on the weekend.
Also, the Spoil of War will be distributed at the end of the Episode!

You come across the next puzzle, a button box! You will have to press the correct button to continue.
There's an inscription underneath that reads: If none of the buttons be red, press the second to get ahead.
if a white button be found, the last wire will give you ground.
If more than one blue button there be, the final blue button is the key.
If none of the above be seen, then the last button should be screened.

The story post should come out tomorrow. I've finished up my art for the scene and you guys will get to catch up on the Persecles Subplot (which should hopefully entwine with the main plot soon)! A gameplay post should follow soon after, but I'm unsure how soon after.
Prepare for the BONUS BOSS, players! This boss will drop a very flashy Spoil of War, but special rules will apply to the fight, and it should be more difficult than a mundane (by comparison) BOSS BATTLE. Be prepared!
Big item changes will be coming up at the end of the Act due to unforseen consequences.. Please note that all of your items (save for the Spoils of War) will be deleted at the end of the first Act, so use any consumables you have as soon as possible! You'll likely need to, anyways.
Speaking of balance changes, due to the politics of the Summit, I have decided that high-level entities have become too spammed-out and have received some balance changes, alongside charges. These changes will be logged in the OP as soon as possible. Existing charges will not be modified.
The maximum number of charges open has been decreased from 3 to 2.
Therefore, +Assists have gone down from a +3 to a +2, and still apply to the assisted's charges.
Entities have received a flat +10 HP buff to increase the efficiency of smaller entities. Base Damage and Speed Values remain unchanged.
All players now have a Charge Overload Meter. This will go up as you charge anything, increasing with the intensity of the charge. Upon reaching the maximum of the Charge Overload Meter, no more of your charges can go through until it is empty. However, this will go down quickly as long as you do not have any charges open. Completing existing charges will increase this meter.
The ability to charge meta-charges (charges that involve more than one charge to complete, such as Anti-Acolyte Bosses) alone has been removed, thus, Anti-Acolyte Bosses will require coordination between one or more players to complete, similarly to the system in 0rigins. This affects existing meta-charges. Meta-charges also take up a charge out of the 2 available.
The Shield Module §¶ from the Shielder Drone will be distributed as a Spoil of War to Nyarlthotep at the end of the next gameplay section! I can release my algorithm for determining the Spoil of War if you wish to see how Nyarly got the Spoil, even though they're a surrogate player.
Well, that's that. Catch up with you guys tomorrow.
Hello everyone! A story post has been bestowed upon ye by the Productivity Gods! A gameplay post should come out soon, but not Monday, since I'll generally be busy by then. This one will have significantly less pictures in it, mostly because there just plain isn't much content and this story post will be sort. So, with enough beating around the bush, I issue a Story Post!
<STORY POST>
The Acolyte has fled to a nearby bay where he hopes to rest up before getting chased once more. However, you will provide not much respite! You say goodbye to the fellow players at the Player Fort and proceed to head on your way, ready to track down the Acolyte. However, before you go, Ninjatwist_ has some chat ready.
Hey, everyone?
I really liked the teamwork we pulled off together holding that push off.
I'm coming along for the ride and I'll pitch in to try and help.
Come hell and high water, I'll be there at your cause to beat the Acolyte!
Unless I die, but that's not part of the plan.
With that, Ninjatwist_ follows your group of Anti-Acolytes ready to give chase. To the bay!
</EPISODE 4>
<EPISODE 5>
<title="Diversion">
Meanwhile, some distance away...
Well, this is it. My forces and I have made landfall. Here is where we will find answers to the habits of the mysterious demons who have fallen from the stars. I should relax, the air still smells of the sea here. Not that the land is any less familiar to me.
I plant my trident in the ground some distance away and signal to my troops to come forward.
My troops emerge in an column and rise from the water, taking in the unusual sights and sounds of the land. Some troops seem uneased, but they should be comforted once they know that this mission will be short. I intend not to take unnecessary risks with my men, but I will get down to the bottom of this, and hopefully end any threat the demons may pose. Hunting on land is not as exciting as stalking the monstrosities of the deep, but land-monsters are considerably more numerous, allowing me to hunt with ease.
Well, now that I'm back on dry land, I'll have a use for this trustworthy device again.
The narrative then switches to the bay.
The Acolyte, already considerably wounded and with his nose still bleeding, pulls out his laptop with urgency and quickly contacts crucifixionTerminated [CT] again.

== godlyAdept [GA] began pestering crucifixionTerminated [CT] at ██:██:██ ==
GA: So, I threw in all my chips and went in for one last assault against that playerbase.
CT: did it work?
GA: I'm on the run and I've recently been hit. You do the math.
CT: well, that didn't work out too well.
GA: Damn it, we should have just sent in more tanks!
CT: mooks are pretty good at that, but we just had to test out some of the new drone technologies. GA: Yeah, it's both our faults.
CT: well, to make it up to you, i'm setting up a plan that's gotta work.
CT: plus, if we pull it off, we'll definitely get an advantage over anyone who's chasing you.
CT: i've discussed it with someone else and they've given it an a-ok.
CT: all you have to do is stall for time.
GA: Stall for time?! How the hell am I going to do that?!
CT: i don't know, deus ex machina? just find something and keep the players in hot pursuit.
GA: I'll try my best, but what is this plan exactly?
Suddenly, an eager voice cries out from the surrounding land.
"There he is! Let's smash him!"
Show Pesterlog
GA: I've been spotted. I'll have to chat later.
== godlyAdept [GA] ceased pestering crucifixionTerminated [CT] at ██:██:██ ==
The Acolyte quickly tucks away his laptop and hastily readies for battle. You have prepared for this moment, the Acolyte has not. Now that his Mook support is disabled, and his Dark Magic Meter flow is low, the Acolyte is at a crippling disadvantage when faced with your team with Ninjatwist_ in tow.
This next fight should be easy.
</STORY POST>
Stay tuned, for a gameplay post will follow on Tuesday! Most likely.
Well it has, so everyone can feel free to get back to playing the game.
Just as a note: Sidequests have not acted twice and have remained in stasis.
Speaking of sidequests, all sidequests must inevitably loop back to the main game somehow and the creation of new sidequests have been abolished. This has yet to be documented in the OP. I have just written this down in the OP and players can still make short sidequests to find an additional experience. However, existing sidequests may continue.
========[End-of-Turn Events]========

Hello everyone! After some bouts of procrastinating, I've run out of time constraints and sadly have had to push the update back. However, there will be an update as soon as I can find the time for it.
Also, I've designed the algorithm at which the BONUS BOSS should emerge. Be prepared!
An update will not come out today, sadly, although one should come out tomorrow.
I have returned to bestow a post upon you! Keep in mind that some parts may sound a little worn out since my computer crashed in the middle of this update. Nevertheless, due to a lack of EOTE, this update will likely be full!

Curse PremiumStairs. Else I cannot think of any more further down. Currently.
-Minion charge expended-
I need myself a companion. When I meet another battle. But now it is not the time for them to appear. Thus, I expend my charge to get myself a Summoning Rune (One time use, when thrown and hit to the ground, create a 5 Ice BD 15 HP Snowman. Also ice spikes will shoot at every direction when thrown and hit to the ground.)
+1 Blinky.
(+1d by Zyn, Pricey)

Minions 10/10
My games.
The Tick Tock Man pulls his arm back and decks the Acolyte in the face with a strong punch.
It appears that the fist is mightier than the pen and the sword. Huh.
Revan leaps and deals a simple strike to the lowest HP Archer Ghost killing it instantly.
HK-47 flurry shots the Archer Ghosts.

You could have still acted, since there was no harm done to you. Talking is a free action, so you just charge your charges!
You guessed correctly! The seal fades away and allows you to pass. You proceed to the next puzzle.
The Acolyte catches the punch and sidesteps Nyarlthotep, sending him spiraling forwards!
You deal 4 damage to the weakest Archer Ghost, dispeling it! This turns it into a Medium Archer Ghost that will act next turn.
HK-47 will do as you command!
Your counting of sheep makes the Acolyte drowsy, thus making him unable to block your attacks.
+5 to both your charges! Although I'd suggest keeping them in reserve.
The no-damage revolver actually fired a shot, but since it was not a slap, this causes the rest of the attack to fail.
Shambler summoned for the next round! You'll lose all your entities between events/episodes, so I'll keep it in reserve.
========[End-of-Turn Events]========
The Inferno Tower and the Rabbit of Caerbannoeg have no targets.
Ninjatwist_ attempts to pour water on the Acolyte's head to take advantage of the Acolyte's drowsy state, but the splashes of water wake the Acolyte up and alert him to the attack, thus giving him time to hold his breath!
The Anti-Mook Turret has no targets in sight.
The Baby Zombies cannot find any targets.
The Snow Golem cannot find any targets.
The Weeping Angel cannot find any targets.
The Bloodstained King remains to bodyguard the Cultists.
The Acolyte repulses Ninjatwist_ away and takes in the losing nature of the events.
THE ACOLYTE: Oh, hell, this is a bad situation.
The Acolyte then retreats and speeds towards a nearby bay!
CONGRATULATIONS! You have finished the gameplay part of Episode 4: Counter! I'll be creating a story post soon, likely on the weekend.
Also, the Spoil of War will be distributed at the end of the Episode!
====[engie_ninja's sidequest]====
Currently in stasis.
The two Trickster Spirits immediately lunge at the Ro-Class Destroyer, dealing 8 damage total to it!

The Ro-Class destroyer retaliates and deals 4 damage to one of the Trickster Spirits!
The I-Class Destroyer follows up and finishes off the Trickster Spirit with 3 damage!
====[Revan's Sidequest]====
HK-47 launches a Flurry Shot at the Small Ghost Archers, dealing 9 damage to one and 3 damage to another!
The Attack Automaton attacks the healthiest Ghost Archer, dealing 5 damage to it!
The Small Ghosts fire their arrows at the Tech Master, dealing 6 damage!
The Tech Master fires his Airburst Armgun at the crowd of Small Ghost Archers, dealing 6 damage to the group! This kills one and lowers the others' health to lethal levels! One Medium Ghost archer spawns from this.
The Ghost King smashes the Attack Automaton, dealing 2 damage!
====[sunnyau's sidequest]====
You come across the next puzzle, a button box! You will have to press the correct button to continue.
There's an inscription underneath that reads:
If none of the buttons be red, press the second to get ahead.
if a white button be found, the last wire will give you ground.
If more than one blue button there be, the final blue button is the key.
If none of the above be seen, then the last button should be screened.
====[Persecles Subplot]====
If you haven't read this from the beginning, go read it! It begins on the first update of Page 79.
This has been stopped from happening during the game period to reduce clutter! We'll catch up on Persecles and his army's investigation next story post.

====[EOTE END]====
An alternate timeline emerges.
However, we must first start from the beginning...
/!\ NUMEROUS ANNOUNCEMENTS! /!\
The story post should come out tomorrow. I've finished up my art for the scene and you guys will get to catch up on the Persecles Subplot (which should hopefully entwine with the main plot soon)! A gameplay post should follow soon after, but I'm unsure how soon after.
Prepare for the BONUS BOSS, players! This boss will drop a very flashy Spoil of War, but special rules will apply to the fight, and it should be more difficult than a mundane (by comparison) BOSS BATTLE. Be prepared!
Big item changes will be coming up at the end of the Act due to unforseen consequences.. Please note that all of your items (save for the Spoils of War) will be deleted at the end of the first Act, so use any consumables you have as soon as possible! You'll likely need to, anyways.
Speaking of balance changes, due to the politics of the Summit, I have decided that high-level entities have become too spammed-out and have received some balance changes, alongside charges. These changes will be logged in the OP as soon as possible. Existing charges will not be modified.
The Shield Module §¶ from the Shielder Drone will be distributed as a Spoil of War to Nyarlthotep at the end of the next gameplay section! I can release my algorithm for determining the Spoil of War if you wish to see how Nyarly got the Spoil, even though they're a surrogate player.
Well, that's that. Catch up with you guys tomorrow.
An alternate timeline emerges.
However, we must first start from the beginning...
Hello everyone! A story post has been bestowed upon ye by the Productivity Gods! A gameplay post should come out soon, but not Monday, since I'll generally be busy by then. This one will have significantly less pictures in it, mostly because there just plain isn't much content and this story post will be sort. So, with enough beating around the bush, I issue a Story Post!
<STORY POST>
The Acolyte has fled to a nearby bay where he hopes to rest up before getting chased once more. However, you will provide not much respite! You say goodbye to the fellow players at the Player Fort and proceed to head on your way, ready to track down the Acolyte. However, before you go, Ninjatwist_ has some chat ready.
Hey, everyone?
I really liked the teamwork we pulled off together holding that push off.
I'm coming along for the ride and I'll pitch in to try and help.
Come hell and high water, I'll be there at your cause to beat the Acolyte!
Unless I die, but that's not part of the plan.
With that, Ninjatwist_ follows your group of Anti-Acolytes ready to give chase. To the bay!
</EPISODE 4>
<EPISODE 5>
<title="Diversion">
Well, this is it. My forces and I have made landfall. Here is where we will find answers to the habits of the mysterious demons who have fallen from the stars. I should relax, the air still smells of the sea here. Not that the land is any less familiar to me.
I plant my trident in the ground some distance away and signal to my troops to come forward.
My troops emerge in an column and rise from the water, taking in the unusual sights and sounds of the land. Some troops seem uneased, but they should be comforted once they know that this mission will be short. I intend not to take unnecessary risks with my men, but I will get down to the bottom of this, and hopefully end any threat the demons may pose. Hunting on land is not as exciting as stalking the monstrosities of the deep, but land-monsters are considerably more numerous, allowing me to hunt with ease.
Well, now that I'm back on dry land, I'll have a use for this trustworthy device again.
The narrative then switches to the bay.
The Acolyte, already considerably wounded and with his nose still bleeding, pulls out his laptop with urgency and quickly contacts crucifixionTerminated [CT] again.
Show Pesterlog
== godlyAdept [GA] began pestering crucifixionTerminated [CT] at ██:██:██ ==
GA: So, I threw in all my chips and went in for one last assault against that playerbase.
CT: did it work?
GA: I'm on the run and I've recently been hit. You do the math.
CT: well, that didn't work out too well.
GA: Damn it, we should have just sent in more tanks!
CT: mooks are pretty good at that, but we just had to test out some of the new drone technologies.
GA: Yeah, it's both our faults.
CT: well, to make it up to you, i'm setting up a plan that's gotta work.
CT: plus, if we pull it off, we'll definitely get an advantage over anyone who's chasing you.
CT: i've discussed it with someone else and they've given it an a-ok.
CT: all you have to do is stall for time.
GA: Stall for time?! How the hell am I going to do that?!
CT: i don't know, deus ex machina? just find something and keep the players in hot pursuit.
GA: I'll try my best, but what is this plan exactly?
Suddenly, an eager voice cries out from the surrounding land.
"There he is! Let's smash him!"
Show Pesterlog
GA: I've been spotted. I'll have to chat later.
== godlyAdept [GA] ceased pestering crucifixionTerminated [CT] at ██:██:██ ==
The Acolyte quickly tucks away his laptop and hastily readies for battle. You have prepared for this moment, the Acolyte has not. Now that his Mook support is disabled, and his Dark Magic Meter flow is low, the Acolyte is at a crippling disadvantage when faced with your team with Ninjatwist_ in tow.
This next fight should be easy.
</STORY POST>
Stay tuned, for a gameplay post will follow on Tuesday! Most likely.
An alternate timeline emerges.
However, we must first start from the beginning...
The gameplay post has arrived!
Well it has, so everyone can feel free to get back to playing the game.
Just as a note: Sidequests have not acted twice and have remained in stasis.
Speaking of sidequests, all sidequests must inevitably loop back to the main game somehow
and the creation of new sidequests have been abolished. This has yet to be documented in the OP.I have just written this down in the OP and players can still make short sidequests to find an additional experience. However, existing sidequests may continue.========[End-of-Turn Events]========
The Acolyte has been caught off-guard at the Bay Area! Deal as much damage to him as possible!
Although watch out, the BONUS BOSS should appear any turn now!
The Shield Module §¶ has been gifted to Nyarlthotep as a Spoil of War!

However, we must first start from the beginning...
[Don't forget to summon the Shambler]
Nyarlathotep steps on the Acolyte's robes, causing the Acolyte to trip and fall on his face. This is why long, flowing garments are a bad idea.
Revan grabs hold of the two lethal level Ghost Archers and picks both of them up, the phantasmic soldiers and holds both of them in her hands before smashing them both together killing them both in a single strike.
HK-47 fires a power shot into a Medium Archer Ghost.

Hello everyone! After some bouts of procrastinating, I've run out of time constraints and sadly have had to push the update back. However, there will be an update as soon as I can find the time for it.
Also, I've designed the algorithm at which the BONUS BOSS should emerge. Be prepared!
An update will not come out today, sadly, although one should come out tomorrow.
An alternate timeline emerges.
However, we must first start from the beginning...
I HAVE RETURNED!
I have returned to bestow a post upon you! Keep in mind that some parts may sound a little worn out since my computer crashed in the middle of this update. Nevertheless, due to a lack of EOTE, this update will likely be full!
The species of the Shark is ambiguous, so the shark fails to breach, since it's not a Mako Shark! The Acolyte's arm is unharmed.
You got it. Thanks for the reminder!
The last 2 Small Ghost Archers are finished off! This summons one Medium Ghost Archer.
HK-47 will do as you say.
I've never seen you shank the Acolyte with a bone in this game before, so it's not usual! Thus, the attack fails!
Scepter of Health Switching becomes SP.
Third button pressed! You are allowed to pass to the next button box.
The Acolyte knows that the Dummy is incapable of hurting him and is not distracted.
Well, if you want your opinion logged down, feel free to vote. I'm definitely seeing a move to TCF in our near future.
Bahama Sunrise drank! 4 HP has been added to Nyarlthotep as Overheal!
The Acolyte takes notice of the Dummy since it now can hurt him!
========[End-of-Turn Events]========
Ninjatwist_ fires some shots at the Acolyte with his combat pistol, causing the Acolyte to produce a riot shield to protect him from his and the Dummy's bullets!
The Acolyte hides behind his riot shield in anticipation of more ballistic attacks.
The BONUS BOSS does not emerge yet.
====[engie_ninja's sidequest]====
Currently in stasis.
The two Trickster Spirits immediately lunge at the Ro-Class Destroyer, dealing 8 damage total to it!
bmxer2001 and 75fires both deal 7 damage each to the Trickster Spirits!
The Ro-Class destroyer retaliates and deals 4 damage to one of the Trickster Spirits!
The I-Class Destroyer follows up and finishes off the Trickster Spirit with 3 damage!
====[Revan's Sidequest]====
HK-47 Power Shots one of the Medium Ghost Archers, dealing 12 damage to it!
The Attack Automaton finishes off the Ghost Archer that HK-47 targeted!
The active Medium Ghost Archer looses an arrow into HK-47, but he dodges it!
The Tech Master reloads his Airbust Armgun!
The Ghost King smashes the Attack Automaton, once more, dealing 2 damage!
====[sunnyau's sidequest]====
You come across another Button Box. I couldn't come up with a cool graphic, so I hope this works.

The Gray wire counts as white.
There's an inscription underneath that reads:
If none of the buttons be red, press the second to get ahead.
if a white button be found, the last wire will give you ground.
If more than one blue button there be, the final blue button is the key.
If none of the above be seen, then the last button should be screened.
