Round 17


Story as of now:
Using her ninja skills, Sheik was able to like through on more round. Lucky her. In other news, not going for Sheik’s death (since that would be unfair to the players), the Turks jump and pummel X and Yoshi for -3 damage each.

Note: Excess points earned will go to the GM’s Choice pot to be spent on gifts for the masses.
1 - Give me your Neopets name and I’ll send you a ‘junk’ item from my SDB, or I’ll PM you the link to a ‘random’ pic from one of the Japanese fan art sites I frequent. Your choice.

Diddy attacks Shiek for -3 damage

SSBM 3: All-Stars Unite (How to play on each update)

Wed May 10, 2006 11:58 pm

Round 18


Story as of now:
A nice slow round turned deadly really fast. Once a ninja gets revealed, they are as good as dead. Sheik took one fling of an unidentified substance from Diddy and she fell. Other then that, nothing too special.

Along came a new round, Mushroom Kingdom came along with it. The stage restored +3 HP to all characters, even the Turks. Before too much goodwill could be generated, the Turks attacked Yoshi and Koopa, thus negating their new found HP.

Sonic uses Sonic Wind on Purin and Koopa for -3 damage each

Thu May 11, 2006 3:42 am

Raises question!
For a beam sword it states the action of -4 damage until the end of round. Meaning even if clucky, or any other member attacked shiek would it only count the beam sword attack, since when round end the -4 is taken into account? Or at least that is how it worked last game...

I don't remember it working like that last game o_O Maybe I missed something. What the sword does is grants the character the ability to deal -4 for each attack s/he makes that round. That means, if you used Roy with the saber last round, each attack he would make deals -4 damage. The saber and mushroom were designed for more players and less characters. I think I see where your confusion came from. It was only used sparcely and dropped toward the end of the last game, so it was essentially a one use weapon. I hope this helps.
