So are we starting actions for the second round yet?
Shall I try to bring the wizard and the slinger out from cover? I could put hypnotic pattern at Q17 which would have a chance to pull them both out into the middle of the street. Could anyone take advantage?
Rohna AC24, HP 33/51 (Temp HP 8), Surges/Value 13/11, Saves: F19/R14/W14 AP: 0 Resist all 1(5)
Rohna swings the warhammer at D2 again in another Crushing Surge. ThenRohna's visible skin gains a reflective sheen and Mitra shifts adjecent to D1 to stop it from moving away from Rohna.
Rohna hits D2 again Crushing Surge=23, 1d10+5=11 gaining a fresh 8 temp HP. Then activates Stone's Endurance for RESIST ALL 5 until end of her next turn. If the D2 drops she will then move adjecent to W (15/16,S/T)
OOC
did you take into account the Resist All 1 that my armor gives vs any attack? If not Rohna has 3 more HP than stated (1 more from each of the 3 attacks).

Seeing the pots from the kobolds, Tondrek Oooo's again, and moves to a better position to see them. Muttering to himself about universmal unguents, he gestures with a free hand and sparks explode near the slinger, but not enough to cause issue. Doggie moves aside Tondrek.
Actions
Move to F19, Standard for Static Shock (no implement) Miss. Minor to move Doggie to F18.
Ok, I'll go ahead and try the hypnotic pattern trick... it seems worthwhile...
Roswyn scampers down the edge of the building across the street and once again raises her orb. A swirling ball of light pops out and speeds down to land in the middle of the road just past the window occupied by the second slinger. It grows into a large swirling kaleidoscope of rainbow colors which pulses and spins, enticing the kobolds to come in for a closer look...
Actions
Move action: move to G21.
Standard action: hypnotic pattern on Q17.
The pattern has no effect until the enemies begin their turn within 3 squares of the pattern... but that happens at the end of Roswyn's turn, so I'll go ahead and roll the attacks.
The slinger has cover, so that probably misses. I don't think the wizard has cover (from Q17), so that probably hits (Will defense). If so, the wizard is pulled 3 squares towards Q17 and is slowed until the end of Roswyn's next turn.
(In theory the miss against the slinger could trigger Orb of Deception, but there don't seem to be any valid targets... Orb of Deception doesn't say you have to be able to see the second target, but it seems incredibly cheesy if you could use it to hit someone you don't even know is there... I guess LOE requirements always still apply, too.)
Roswyn stat block
Lady Roswyn d'Sivis- Female Gnome Wizard 4

Can you put your Resist 1 from your armor in your statblock next to your HP? That way I don't forget. You are currently at 36.

Miss, as you already knew.
Rohna swings the warhammer at the blade-wielding kobold in front of him. The hammer batters through the kobold's already damaged defenses and slams into it's hip. Then Rohna's visible skin gains a reflective sheen and Mitra shifts adjecent to the other kobold to stop it from moving away from Rohna.
Roswyn scampers down the edge of the building across the street and once again raises her orb. A swirling ball of light pops out and speeds down to land in the middle of the road just past the window occupied by the second slinger. It grows into a large swirling kaleidoscope of rainbow colors which pulses and spins, enticing the kobolds to come in for a closer look...The slinger looks groggily at the pattern, but shakes his head and fights off the enchantment. The kobold spellcaster isn't so lucky and it walks slowly toward the pattern.
The robed kobold slowed by Roswyn's enchantment, moves toward the alleyway on the other side of the street. The creature hurls another orb of acid, this time at the warforged. The warforged ducks at the last second and the orb sizzles against the wood of the shop. The creature barks orders at the others, and they creatures grin evilly.
The kobold warriors strike out with their shortswords. One is unable to reach Rohna, and the goliath deflects away the blade with her shield. The other kobold stabs at Cleaver, piercing one of his wooden joints. The kobold that struck at Rohna steps away, but the goliath's weapon hammers him as he moves to the middle of the shop.
From Rohna's position, she sees a pair of kobolds, one armed and armored like the one that just retreated, standing on a pair of rolling steps. The other kobold is wearing battered hide armor, with a javelin in one hand. The hide wearing kobold yells a battle cry as it pushes the warrior on the steps, charging toward Rohna. The blade finds it mark, though the fighter barely feels it, thanks to her resilience. The force and weight behind the strike does force Rohna and her mount back a step.
The slingers launch their projectiles at the warforged and the gnome. The clay pots explode on their targets, bruising flesh, and worse, catching clothes on fire.
A pair of kobolds come from around the alleyway to the right of the shop. They hurl javelins at Roswyn. A third javelin comes from the window, targeting the gnome as well. Only one javelin is well placed enough to hit the wizard, carving a deep gash in her side. The other two clatter against the building behind her.
Tondrek backs up to where the gnome is and Doggie follows. Tuning his crossbow again, he attempts to bolt one of the nasty kobolds Little Big Girl was fighting, but in the excitement, it goes wide.
Actions
BTW: You have Tondrek in his old position. Should be at F19 before he moves.
Move to F21, using a minor to move Doggie to F20. Standard to use Magic Weapon vs D1: Miss. IC hates Tondrek.
Tamarand looks over at the halfork, "Maybe instead of ooooing you can do something" the drow hisses angrily, as he spurs the lizard forward. Tamarand points his daggers to the sky, tracing a circle pattern in the air. A silver circle appears over the two kobolds and from out of the circle a small shower of meteors come falling out raining upon the enemy. Smiling to himself as the flaming projectiles do their work, Tamarand looks back to Tondrek, "Like that" he calls out.
Rohna AC24, HP 36/51 (Temp HP 6), Resist all 1, Surges/Value 13/11, Saves: F19/R14/W14, AP: 0
Rohna sees her chance to get away from the kobold meat shields and takes it. She wheels Natasha around, shifting south, then charges the slowed wyrmpriest who is just 10ft away with her shield.
Minor: Rohna shifts to (K/L,17/18). Move: Mitra moves through Cleavers spaces from (J,15) to (O,17) diagonally adjecent to M2. Standard: Rohna then charges into (M/N,17/18) and hits W, knocking him prone. Shield Bash vs reflex=21, 1d10+10=15 marking him on the ground.

Looking around to see where he can do the most damage Cleavers eyes settle on the pair to the southeast. Pulling ripfang expertly away from the nearest kobold Cleaver wheels, and with a silent salute to the waiting kobolds rushes forward once more swinging his axe in a deadly arc.
eh, maybe I jumped the gun using Hypnotic Pattern... I wish I could use it again now! It will take a while to understand how to use Roswyn's powers best... at least it did pull the wizard out, and he is getting pounded. Go, Rohna!
I don't know about getting into the building or getting them out... Alternatively, I could drop grasping shadows on the doorway, which slows and knocks prone, giving us a chance to head down the far alley and try to get in from that side?
(edit - thinking about it some more, that might be a good move, but probably not at this moment. I think we want to make sure the guys in the street are down first... will post my move shortly.)
Just one thing I noticed reading back... the wyrmpriest was knocked prone by Rohna, so Cleaver should have Combat Advantage for his attacks. Might make a difference for that Foe to Foe attack...
Since my posts are so long, on the days I work, which are Mon/Tues/Wed this week, I may do short updates. That is, I might do a couple people's init, instead of everybody as once. That way things can keep moving, but I don't have to spend 2 hours updating before I go to bed.
Looking around to see where he can do the most damage Cleavers eyes settle on the pair to the southeast. Pulling ripfang expertly away from the nearest kobold Cleaver wheels, and with a silent salute to the waiting kobolds rushes forward once more swinging his axe in a deadly arc. The deadly weapon connects, glancing off the creature's shoulder. The warforged draws upon primal reserves of strength and brings the weapon around again swinging again this time at the robed one's legs. The creature steps back this time and the axe narrowly misses.
We must find a way to draw them out or force our way inside. The walls leave us at a tactical disadvantage.
As the flames coating his body sputter, they fail to find purchase on the treated wood, leaving little more then scorch marks.
Tamarand looks over at the halfork, "Maybe instead of ooooing you can do something" the drow hisses angrily, as he spurs the lizard forward. Tamarand points his daggers to the sky, tracing a circle pattern in the air. A silver circle appears over the two kobolds and from out of the circle a small shower of meteors come falling out raining upon the enemy. One projectile strikes the robed one in the shoulder, spinning him around. The second kobold is hit squarely in the back of the head. It collapses to the ground bleeding. Smiling to himself as the flaming projectiles do their work, Tamarand looks back to Tondrek, "Like that" he calls out.
Harkin finally snaps back to his senses. He points inside the shop. "My Pa's in there! You've got to help him." The halfling moves into the alley beside the building, taking cover from the combat.
Tondrek backs up to where the gnome is and Doggie follows. Tuning his crossbow again, he attempts to bolt one of the nasty kobolds Little Big Girl was fighting, but in the excitement, it goes wide, deflecting off the wood of the doorway.
Rohna sees her chance to get away from the kobold meat shields and takes it. She wheels Natasha around, shifting south, then charges the slowed wyrmpriest who is just 10ft away with her shield. The goliath slams her shield into the kobold's back, who was just spun around by Tamarand's magic. The creature slams facefirst into the ground, the wind knocked from it's lungs.
Roswyn shrieks and bats at her burning clothes. She hisses defiance at the kobolds. She gestures with her orb; flames spring up near the door to the shop. The kobold warrior is singed by the flames, the second flings up it's shield, protecting it. The kobold pushing the rolling stair falls smoking to the ground. Then she scurries back to the alley, seeking cover, the flames now out.
Cleaver glares at the wizard. Raising his axe high overhead, waves of half seen force seem to pulse into his hands from the very stone sharn is built of. Suddenly his axe drops like a boulder tumbling down a mountainside.
Actions
Standard Action to attack with Avalanche Strike 1d20+9=18 3d12+9=17
Minor Action to use Warforged Resolve gaining 5 temp HP, and regaining 5 HP
Gathering himself, some of the cords holding his limbs together begin to reknit themselves lending Cleaver renewed vigor.
Even Sharn itself wars against the Kobolds.
ooc
Instead of you needing to remember to apply a +4 to your attacks against Cleaver this turn I just posted his defenses with a 4 point modifier in his stat block
The wyrmpriest stands and inhales deeply. The kobold unleashes a gout of acid over the warforged, the goliath, and their mounts. Cleaver and Rohna take cover behind their mounts, but their mounts themselves are not so lucky. The kobold steps back from the pair.
ooc
Misses Cleaver and Rohna, so 5 damage. 10 damage to each of their mounts.
The slingers whirl their weapons again and the clay pots fly and Cleaver and Tondrek. The pot flies over Cleaver's head, crashing against the roof of the building across the street, catching it afire. The other pot is on target, it strikes Tondrek right in the face, to his momentary amusement. His nose broken and bleeding and his hair on fire, the half-orc feels great pain. The pair of kobolds move away from the windows.
The heavily armed and armored kobolds retreat into the shop.
A javelin whistles toward the half orc from the window hitting him in the hip. The kobold just outside throws it's weapons as well going wide of the warforged, it then retreats just inside the doorframe.
Miss Cleaver, Crit Tondrek. 10 damage to Tondrek and ongoing 3 fire damage.
Cleaver glares at the wizard. Raising his axe high overhead, waves of half seen force seem to pulse into his hands from the very stone sharn is built of. Suddenly his axe drops like a boulder tumbling down a mountainside.
The kobold dances backward, and the axe bites into the stone roadway. Gathering himself, some of the cords holding his limbs together begin to reknit themselves lending Cleaver renewed vigor.
