Ah alright, I'll try and restrain my posts to being after someone else in the main battlefield when I can. Although it doesn't matter TOO much since I'm just churgamalizationizinating.
The shopkeep chews on his piece of straw while he continues his charge. 1.8/3 for THERE'S A LEEK IN THE BOAT
Store stuff: Angry Peasant: 1 credit
Stored credit: WoobyDoobyDoo: 0.8 credits.
yes. there is a leek. it's part of the food supplys actually. you proceed to blend it, and chug the resulting juice.
JOE did the roll for Wooby, and Wooby rolled 0.2 actions. RIP a dip dip
The shopkeep looks at the tiny piece of charge thats come through the churgsystem, then sighs and tosses it to the machine which hungrily gobbles it up, before taking the farmer's piece of charge and completing... 3/3 for THERE'S A LEEK IN THE BOAT
Wooby, once again the only person providing charge points, wins the auction. The charge gets expended and summons up Hatsune Miku in the sidequest. Miku is for some reason dual-wielding leeks, even though she's not actually going to be attacking anything, because her special ability is attack amplification! Every round, instead attacking on her own, she increases the attack power of another entity. That's pretty simple, right? Anyways, there you go wooby, enjoy your vocaloid.

I have no idea who that is! regardless, they have attack-buffing powers. and exactly 10 hp.
I attempt to choke the godmodder unconscious, which therefore makes it legal for me to cast imprisonment on it and banish it into the sphere option.
It's legal, but the unlawful imprisonment gets the authoritys attention. luckily the godmodder escapes before they show up, so they can't charge you with anything.
Orders: Dispose of the basilisk's body inside the fort. Cast a illusion of a storagehouse over it. Begin counter divination to prevent location of the Basilisk and who killed them. If you can make the GM think the Communists did it via a fake divination and framing the commies. The communist's location should be in another univers, on a planet named Earth set in Halo universe. Utilize Future Sight and the Precommitment if necessary, but GM is probably immune to it so don't use it if that is the case. Try anti-scrying wards if necessary, however GM will know you are hiding something if he scrys, so framing multi-universal communists are better.
you build... better armor for the existing turret. there is no room for another. +7 turret HP! you also give some very complicated orders.
I quickly chug a healing potion and point at the Godmodder.
Orders: "Attack the Godmodder, Stalker."
you chug a potion!... since you're automatically healed by leaving the sidequest (though you will revet to 50 if you rejoin), it turns out it's a blended fruit rollup of power potion. next action empowered, whatever it may be. orders given.
Okay, so I semi-accidentally deleted my previous post (how you semi-accidentally do something is a little complicated. Basically it's partway making a decision, then deciding not to go through with it then misclicking.) So here's a post to replace it.
The shopkeep continues chewing on his piece of straw, wondering if anyone besides Wooby is going to show any interest in auction process. 1/5 for Mechanical Reaper.
Pointing out things do not count as actions, and my precommitment only covered actions.
Godmodder changed this. [H-OG] Shoggoth 7 /25 HP UnBound from Acerak! Acid skin! [in fort]
Clearly, you mean "UnBound from CANON and Bound to Acerak." Unbound = Unstuck so rip everything.
Also you said:
"no, the NO elemental is not a Homestuck"
However, since you used two negative words in a sentence meaning yes, like this.
"yes, the NO elemental is a Homestuck"
you did find the change, so it is reverted. however, your logic is clearly wrong, and as acerak pointed out, my sentence had perfectly fine structure. instead of creating more turrets, you continue to make your first one more resilient. +8 turret hp
you find that yet again you cannot construct more turrets on your fort. perhaps if you remodel the whole thing to add more spaces appropriate for the job, but not in its current state. +7 turret hp.
The mushroomancer walks over to the wriggling corpse of the basilisk that is currently in the process of being reanimated. He doesn't really have feet though its more of like strands of mycelium that protrude from his robes and sort of cling to the ground, pulling him along, kinda like the underside of a starfish. He looks down, silently concentrating, and suddenly thousands of thin strands of the mycelium lash outwards, rooting him to the ground, gradually encasing him and the lower half of the basilisk in a dense fungal cocoon that hardens shortly after.
Orders: As the cocoon forms, the Mushroomancer issues commands to the remaining 15 zombies who are outside of the cocoon to cover each of the flammable gas shrooms in a similar sorta cocoon shell. essentially making them into like 20 foot wide pop-able bombs littered around the main area
you grant your future minion a slowly-growing shield!
I reinforce the drill to withstand the strain of going faster and make it go faster.
3 is the action limit and ye have acted thrice. action nulled, 5 damage to the fortress in case it was intentional.
the angry peasant, having played with the blink dog, is no longer angry. it finds a new emotional state to linger on... suspicious. it begins making plans for various possible godmodder deceptions. ok? The shoggoth and byakhee idle. the mushroom zambies, with their smaller hoard size, are less intelligent. they roll to realize they have no orders... and succeed, before deciding to fix the low number of members. they dig up some random corpse, infect it, and gain a new member. wiat no the they have orders. they create 3-foot-radius bombs, though they only have a few. also, the shrooms will die once they saturate their sphere with oxygen. the lesser elemental hoard sorts things again! shadow crystal, shadow crystal, goldenrod shadow crystal iron goldenrod iron goldenrod shadow crystal. total, three goldenrod, 2 iron, and a ridiculous four shadow crystals. and yes, this is sort of contrary to your orders, but if they don't separate out the iron, building will slow dramatically. on that note, 4 iron is used again. +10% fort completion, +10 additional HP beyond the norm. the NO elemengenertal follows redrover's orders. it all goes perfectly, but... the Godmodder isn't fooled. he knows the leader of the biggest group of multi-dimensional communists personally. and they're... business partners. they wouldn't risk attacking. The invisible stalker roars soundlessly, and prepares to charge the Godmodder. oh look, a penny! the stalker starts bending over to pick it up. if the Godmodder notices them, there's no chance of success! GODMODDER: I'll ask one more time. which of you Idiots killed it. come now, don't be shy! If you tell me now, I prooooooomise not to hurt you for it. he smiles unsettlingly. after a half a second, he takes a small tablet-sha PEASANT: you could still hurt their allys with that wording, even if you're not lying! the godmodder sighs about idiots, takes out a small table-shaped device, and starts reading sigils in some alien scrip. they seem to be oriented in some sort of list, and the first one displays in red. he proceeds to start scrolling down with his index finger and, since he isn't doing much really, he charges with his non-free action. 1/3 for Behold my power

So just a question, why is it that people on the main battlefield have to make 3 posts in order to get all 3 of their actions? That feels like it greatly empowers people like me and rover who can just sit and wait for others to post between us, and severely hampers people like aeisenberg who it seems is only able to really post once per round.
Wouldn't it make more sense to have DefTG's system of everyone getting to use all three of their actions in a singular post?
/null
Believe it or not, I have a plan for that. it will eventually happen, but When depends on whether the players do specific things in the near and distant future.
I build up the fort. I build out instead of up and make some room for another turret while I'm building a outermore layer. I redefine the Perimeter as it is apart of the fort and replace it with a outer level of a multi-wall-layered fort.
Orders: Well, the Fault in Godmodder's reasoning is that he failed to understand is that it wasn't actually the communists who did it, it was the Anti-Communist Forces (ACF) trying to frame the Communists to do that to dispose of a valuable ally. This is why when a major error in one of the framing attempts by GM's agents revealed that it was actually the ACF Trying to Frame the Communists.
The shopkeep takes out a tiny vial, and notices as a thin white light flows into it. He smiles. Looks like his plan is working. 2/5 for Mechanical Reaper.
I build the outer layer wall upwards and add a open entrance that enemies can just walk through. The sandbags and fences, deconstructed, are moved around the entrance to create a choke-point. Enemies would perfer to go through the Checkpoint instead of going through the walls. Its a Trap though, since the "Open entrance" actually has a gate in in. Also, that turret fort foundation is near this entrance as a part of the chokepoint, and are programmed to fire on attackers, making it more deadly of a chokepoint. I also quickly rename the fort a "Fortress" cause that is the next tier up from a normal Fort, due to the massive amount of effort that has been put into it.
Additional Order: Add a Anti-Scrying ward at the Chokepoint that doesn't cover the main fort, just that area.
P.S. Expanding the fort outwards is the same thing as remodeling it.
The shopkeep plugs the vial of white with a cork, then stows it away in a cabinet underneath the strange machine. The strange machine has a panel light up, showing the life and times of the skylanders figurines: It shows them being shipped out to some unknown parts, and then a mage accidentally pouring a potion of animating on them. It then shows as the skylanders figurines rampage around the wizard's lab, breaking things and just generally making a nuisance of themselves, until finally the mage gets fed up with them and throws them into a home made dimensional vortex. The Skylanders figurines fly through the vortex until they are caught by a high-level spell... one cast by the shopkeeper. They plop out by the shopkeeper and are controlled by the spell, making them less malicious and more amenable to control by the owner of the spell. The shopkeeper sends the spell off to wooby, and then portals the skylanders figurines out to him in the Astral Sea. Then in the Astral Sea the figurines attack the door, and are shortly thereafter obliterated by the seekers of the name. The screen goes black.
The shopkeeper leans back after watching the video. "Huh. Well that was disappointing." He listens to something. "That's fair enough I suppose. Still, rather underwhelming, do we really have to stick in the small ones?" He listens some more. "Alright. I guess I'll quit my complaining and just keep the charges flowing instead." He listens even more. "True. and faster even than that if someone else joins in. It'll be quite the show..." 3/5 for Mechanical Reaper.
Dunno how early I'll be able to get on tomorrow, so I'm going to go ahead and make my post now so I can get it in. Also the rp bit above has no actual baring on mechanics for things. I just decided I wanted to be cryptic and have reasons for what I'm doing. The auctions will still continue as normal for the foreseeable future.
Wooby's contributed charge was 1.1
The shopkeep goes back to leaning on his machine and churging more, before realizing he's got a good business opportunity available. "Yo mister Godmodder, I got video footage of the death of your basilisk, if you hand over... say 5 player actions worth of charge? I'll gladly give you the video footage and you can make of it what you will."
5/5 for Mechanical Reaper. The machine dings and whistles. It seems another charge is complete. This time, a little nozzle opens up out the back of the machine. A rumbling is heard deep within the machine, and suddenly out the nozzle sprays a massive spray of wheat and wheat stalks. Meanwhile in the sidequest, a large portal opens up, and a massive combine harvester (look 'em up, they're used in farming.) charges out of a portal, arriving to join up with Wooby's growing entourage. The combine harvester is mostly standard aside from the 3 round charged ability: Harvest Time, which deals light/moderate damage to three enemies (unable to target one enemy more than once)

I also order slime king to absorb ded skylanders before kill door. I also have the toaster put all heals on the cops instead of slime.
you redo your orders.
The slime king absorbs the skylanders. oooooooookay.....? the toaster then gives the potato police car heals and makes 1 new LOAF. +5 hp. hatsune buffs the slime king which does little since the slime king is, well, not attacking things. the minions delay for the door opening. the spiked slime group attacks for 5 damage. the deva trys to open the door. no dice. well, actually, one die: a d20. it bonks them on the nose for 1 damage and lands on 13, meaning they failed. The door bursts open. the minions burst through it, circling the pile of bananas as the confused marines rain down fire on them. how where they able to act in the AG section? each shot has a 1/3 accuracy rating, and the hail does a total of 5 damage. then, the seekers move in, two breaking off from the herd to attack. 1/5 chance to get there without being killed each... and both get there. 4 more damage. wow, good thing you healed the minions, right? they're really taking a beating, and they'd be dead if not for the heals... Actually, as it turns out, the minions are now on the AG side, they just love bananas too much. the remaining seekers attack the... spiked slime groups, slaughtering them all, before retreating back into the door which the tendrilled monsters close. the minion potato car proceeds to eat the bananas, gaining 2d7 +1 hp -> 12 hp. back to full, and on the enemy side to boot

The shopkeep goes back to leaning on his machine and churging more, before realizing he's got a good business opportunity available. "Yo mister Godmodder, I got video footage of the death of your basilisk, if you hand over... say 5 player actions worth of charge? I'll gladly give you the video footage and you can make of it what you will."
5/5 for Mechanical Reaper.
The machine dings and whistles. It seems another charge is complete. This time, a little nozzle opens up out the back of the machine. A rumbling is heard deep within the machine, and suddenly out the nozzle sprays a massive spray of wheat and wheat stalks.
Meanwhile in the sidequest, a large portal opens up, and a massive combine harvester (look 'em up, they're used in farming.) charges out of a portal, arriving to join up with Wooby's growing entourage.
The combine harvester is mostly standard aside from the 3 round charged ability: Harvest Time, which deals light/moderate damage to three enemies (unable to target one enemy more than once)
0.1/10 for DUCK!

((Send me churges then. You have a
chancepretty much guarentee to get moderate-to-high power minions out of it. /totallynotashillpost))hatsune buffs the slime king which does little since the slime king is, well, not attacking things. the minions delay for the door opening. the spiked slime group attacks for 5 damage. the deva trys to open the door. no dice. well, actually, one die: a d20. it bonks them on the nose for 1 damage and lands on 13, meaning they failed.
The door bursts open. the minions burst through it, circling the pile of bananas as the confused marines rain down fire on them. how where they able to act in the AG section? each shot has a 1/3 accuracy rating, and the hail does a total of 5 damage. then, the seekers move in, two breaking off from the herd to attack. 1/5 chance to get there without being killed each... and both get there. 4 more damage. wow, good thing you healed the minions, right? they're really taking a beating, and they'd be dead if not for the heals...
Actually, as it turns out, the minions are now on the AG side, they just love bananas too much. the remaining seekers attack the... spiked slime groups, slaughtering them all, before retreating back into the door which the tendrilled monsters close. the minion potato car proceeds to eat the bananas, gaining 2d7 +1 hp -> 12 hp. back to full, and on the enemy side to boot
