Brought a tear to my eye...

...and then I burst out sobbing!

So we're snorkeling through Bayjin shallows, thinking, hey it's ALMOST like Club Med out here. Suddenly the local fishies decide to show up for a nice Mook sandwich with a side of Lizard. Ha ha, says we, it's sushi time! Break out the chopsticks boys n' girls, and oh, Radar, don't forget yer Omnigun. Were they death rays, psi sharks, or some really pissed off tuna? Hard to say...those darn scuba masks keep fogging up. Whatever they were, thirty seconds later poor Radar lost his head and started whoop-whoop-whoop-whooping like Curly on speed...

Bang...CRITICAL (mage dead)
Bang...CRITICAL (lord dead)
Bang...CRITICAL (samurai dead)

Needless to say, I want to know what kind of insane dice roll the computer came up with to nail me with 3 instakills in one turn!

Oh, yes, I ran into that buffet, too. Some kind of ray fish, I think, which has an instant critical attack and was very fast.

I'm going back to Indian food, and on land. Much safer, though I do enjoy well-cooked fish.

I wish you could buy a Ship and Sail the sea over.. with all the Pickpocketing I did, I could afford a fleet [img]smile.gif[/img]

na, but with the 1000 renewel potions that braffit has in his inventory right now, youd think that i could buy just Arnika from the Savant.

me and my 4 million+ gold....

Ahh, see, but this is the pricelessness of the moment. Wasn't the fishies who insta-killed me...it was Radar, my lovely Gadgeteer. He was hasted, then went insane and killed three of my party IN THE SAME TURN!!! What are the odds of getting three 1% kill shots in a row?!?!

Answer: never when I'm controlling him.

know what you mean. My samurai went crazy once and had a lightning strike on my ninja. 8x times! my poor ninja didn't even survive to see the 8th stroke. When have my samurai ever had a 8x lightning strike against critters? Never! : (

Goumindong · 01-23-2002, 03:09 AM

I believe you are looking for the number .0000001, which equates to .0001% for each three attacks that ever take place, so it's ture probablility that you will see one in your game is probably about 50-90%. the probability that it will happen when your turncoated... a bit larger than .0001% but not much.

also depends on the ammo you were using.
