[QUOTE="Dr Simon, post: 5982641, member: 21938"] At the centre of the attack, Bastian and Comoray lead a powerful charge into the ranks of the beastmen, followed by Gregorry and the rest of the Dulat troops around them. The two skurgs are battered by the assault, and trooper Zane is so bouyed up that he severs the left arm of one of the Skurg, causing the skurg to miss an attack on Comoray. Comoray is distracted enough that one of the lesser beastmen is able to draw blood. Meanwhile the other skurg, still standing despite Bastian's charge, smashes a devestating axe-strike down onto the Last Lion, slicing through armour. Dack fires his crossbow and then sends the Dulat troops on the western flank into a charge, the archers exhchanging bows for swords. Another beastman goes down. To Bastian's left, four Dulat troopers face up against three beastmen but they fare less well, with trooper Trey falling under the axe of one of the beastmen who tramples forwards over his fallen body. On the eastern flank, Tye leads his squad of men in a narrow gap between buildings at the foot of the keep, surviving a volley of crossbow bolts from above. They are met by a charge from the beastmen from the eastern rampart, who pour down with no discipline, some heading towards Sh'aah, some towards Tye's group. Trooper Setto holds off three beatsmen at the head of the charge, but at the cost of terrible injuries. Meanwhile, Sh'aah lops the head off one the beastmen before him whilst the Dulat troops follow his lead and cut down another. The archers behind him on the wall send a volley into the oncoming mob but despite some hits don't slow them down. Cassie, badly wounded, moves towards Sh'aah's abandoned horse, and in the centre of the Dulat lines Janson moves to take the reins of Arcata's horse, his sword drawn he stands guard. "My lady," he says with an ironic-looking leer. Those who are paying attention to the beastmen on the unfinished keep notice that the one in the corner [#37] points towards Arcata. The big skurg disappears inside whilst the others reload their crossbows. [sblock=OOC] Not going to give out all the rolls for the NPCs for clarity's sake. You can tell which beastmen remain and who is where from the map. Dulat causalties D1 stable on -3 hp D3 is down to -2 hit points and bleeding D7 on 1 hp D9 on 4 hp P3 (Cassie) on 2 hp Comoray is hit by B20 for 4 damage Bastian is hit by S2 for 17 damage. Bastian causes 18 damage to S2 Comoray causes 10 damage to S3 Sh'aah causes 7 damage to B29 (dead) Greg causes 1 damage to S3 [MENTION=4936]Shayuri[/MENTION] Arcata still to act this round [/sblock] [/QUOTE]
