Adventure: Get Me to the Church on Time (DM: BenBrown, Judge: Renau1g)

[BenBrown]

GM: Remember, everyone is prone at the moment, so you'll need the surprise round just to stand up.

 

[bluesfella]

OOC: Ah, forgot about the one-action thing. Yes, I'd have to use the surprise round to stand up, then my full turn when it comes around. If I have a full turn, I can get there and attack by moving 5 (including crossing 1 square of DT, so 4), then charging 5. If needed, I also have an encounter power where I can move my speed +4. I don't mind being the target - a screaming barbarian should get their attention. Whoever wants to come with me can go for the spearman that is closer, or get as far as they can and use ranged attacks. I'm just trying to draw away the bulk of the forces to give you guys a chance to go around the back way.

 

[Tenchuu]

OOC: So, essentially, no surprise round: we are all standing with initiative in round 1. Lets do it, Zardi. I will follow your lead; I can hit W12 with a charge as well.

Goldenhorn points out a few areas where he thinks additional hobgoblins are hiding (behind the tent, behind the large tree to the left, and in the rows of shrubs around the edges of the area).

OOC: Goldenhorn is pretty slow, so he'll be coming up behind the chargers. I'm happy with running straight into the mess, though.

 

[VanderLegion]

OOC: I won't charge straight in with you guys, but I don't mind if you do that and I'll move in with stealth so I can try to garrote someone.

 

[bluesfella]

OOC: What should we do with Thais? She looks pretty handy in a fight, but we have to use our standard actions to have her attack, so she may not see much action...

Zardi bursts forth from the bushes, splashes through the water, and runs full speed into the midst of the hobgoblins. As soon as they are aware of the giant barbarian, he lets out a roar, and raises his axe while he runs. The sword hobgoblin is slow to react, and falls swiftly to Zardi's first blow. Invigorated by the kill, Zardi then brings his axe back around and catches the flail hobgoblin with the other side of his blade.[sblock=Actions][sblock=BenBrown]Since we all are planning to simply "stand up" during the suprise round, I'll put all my actions here if that's OK.

[BenBrown]

GM: Yes, go ahead and post surprise round and normal actions in one post. Also, if you want to assume that Thais or Mallaby stands during the surprise round, go ahead.

 

[BenBrown]

GM: Note: made a mistake with Thais's at-will, which has now been corrected in the post.

 

[Mewness]

"Can you take out that archer?" Goldenhorn rumbles to Thais, before getting up and following in Zardi's wake. Thais fires a cloud of green spores at the target, but misses.
