Re: [Let's Play] Fighting Fantasy 71 – Shadow of the Giants
I think we should save the clover. Our odds of passing a luck test are only a bit better than 50/50 right now and our odds of winning each round are less than 50/50. I say we use luck to reduce damage until we win or die...

Re: [Let's Play] Fighting Fantasy 71 – Shadow of the Giants
Feel like there should have been more to 'paying our respects' than observing the gravestone, so might as well examine the tomb.

Re: [Let's Play] Fighting Fantasy 71 – Shadow of the Giants
I think we should pay our respects as suggested. While she could either be a tomb or a gravestone, I feel like we're more likely to get jumped if we examine the tomb. I vote look at the gravestones.

Re: [Let's Play] Fighting Fantasy 71 – Shadow of the Giants
We do have a lot of gold, but 10 is very expensive. We weren't asked to return the horse and finding a place for it in town seems like a potentially annoying and expensive problem. I vote we give Willow (the horse) to the fishing ferry-woman.

Not sure I believe him, but if his story is true it would be cruel to leave him. Vote to untie.

Re: [Let's Play] Fighting Fantasy 71 – Shadow of the Giants
I think that saying we're looking for magic items makes us sound greedy, so I think we should ask if he has heard of Marik Om-Yash.
I don't remember Lixx having heard of him, but that's even more reason to ask about him - whoever he is he must be important.

Re: [Let's Play] Fighting Fantasy 71 – Shadow of the Giants
I'm thinking the lesson of this book is that if you want something done - you just have to do it yourself. But we might as well pester him. We're not going to beat the giants to town walking if they have longer legs.

Re: [Let's Play] Fighting Fantasy 71 – Shadow of the Giants
I really want to hear about the underground river. Maybe buying the boat will keep him talking? I guess that's my vote.

Re: [Let's Play] Fighting Fantasy 71 – Shadow of the Giants
Talk to old man.
Since we don't know what we need to find in Hamelin, I'll be voting to explore everything we can. Magic items may end up in weird places.

Re: [Let's Play] Fighting Fantasy 71 – Shadow of the Giants
Agreed. I would be very surprised if there was a different puzzle that advice was supposed to apply to.
With the 4gp we earned do we have to deduct for Higgly, or does that only apply to loot after a fight?

Re: [Let's Play] Fighting Fantasy 71 – Shadow of the Giants
I'm torn on this. Sticking your hands into random holes is generally not sensible. But it just seems too weird a question - like something must have been lost in it. In the Audrey Hepburn/Gregory Peck movie Roman Holiday "They tour the Colosseum. Joe then takes Ann to the Mouth of Truth and tel...

It's strange to start with what seems like so much money relatively speaking. Yes, pay her.

Re: [Let's Play] Fighting Fantasy 71 – Shadow of the Giants
So treasure can be a multiple of 2 or 3, but not both unless it is at least 6. So far all the treasure we've seen has been a multiple of 2. That means that Gibbly won't get full pieces of gold, which means he wasn't planning to get paid. Increasing my vote to a full vote for Higgly.

Re: [Let's Play] Fighting Fantasy 71 – Shadow of the Giants
Someone who is fearless and untrustworthy might take our gold and split. So I think hiring someone trustworthy is probably worth it, but we only have Higgly's word that he can be trusted. Well, traveling with a fiery red-head sounds more cinematic so let's call it a half-vote for Higgly (the more ex...

Re: [Let's Play] Fighting Fantasy 71 – Shadow of the Giants
From the little I've seen Fire is important. It seems that the 15gp fire sword would be the better choice. I may have doomed our last character with my name choice. If anyone else has suggestions I'll defer to them; I'll make a suggestion tomorrow if nobody else suggests one. Looking forward to it!

This was a subject of discussion this week on the Discord Server. With some ongoing website issues some people can't navigate to threads that don't have a recent post and some people may not know about the discord. Two birds, one post.
