[Meta thread] Lord Windos' PokeRole Adventure : Celadon City Vandels

[Dragonstrike]

I would say that the Z-Crystal would buff Beat Up AFTER its base power is increased based on how many allies join in. So if the maximum number came to assist in the execution of the move, then following the first set of rules it would end up doing STR + 12 Damage , or STR + 6 Base Damage + 3 + Half Damage Dice Rolled Out . If you spend a Z Crystal on a move, I want it to be pretty damn powerful to make up for the fact that it can only be used once per Encounter!

Mate, if something is strong enough to survive THAT level of firepower, then nothing sort of either Arceas casting JUDGEMENT on them or all the Legends dogpiling on them will defeat them. That, or some controvied plot device that will appear and be used by the True Heroes of that Scenario....
"Or me. Can't forget about the power that I hold, can't you Windos? Or maybe you just don't want to think about it, hmm? HeheheHA!"
1/4 of the Paradoxical Might of Creation Used For Destruction is still just that: Overkill the likes of which no mortal has seen. Or survived seeing it, at any rate. Diging several Kilometers under the surface of the earth or Flying like your life depended on it several Kilometers into the upper stratosphere, or phasing into another dimension MIGHT spare you. Might....

Hmmm...alright then.  Looks like Reiner is definitely grabbing that Darkinium Z since he'd probably know just how dang ridiculous that could be.  Pokerole Beat Up certainly is a little weird in that it does all the damage at once instead of with multiple, individual hits like in the games, so I guess another exception here makes sense.  And I guess that would also mean a Z-Assurance would work off of a 5 BP attack in that case, yes?  Not nearly as strong, but you don't have to use 4 actions total to use the nuke.  Just need your target to be at half HP.  Z-Taunt and Z-Snatch could be fun too...or even Z-Embargo. Theft the likes of which has never been seen before, yo...

Yeah, I wouldn't expect anything to take a Z-move THAT strong under most any circumstances.  But what about 'normal' Z-moves?  1/4 damage could matter a lot then, right?
