[QUOTE="Leif, post: 5943138, member: 48762"] [OOC: I hope you're not referring to me? If you are then I'm sorry, but I'm doing the best that I can. Still, I'll try to do better, just tell me where I need to improve more. :)] The Orc fighting Camlin swings back at the Ranger, but misses. The two other Orcs take careful aim from their kneeling positions and both fire arrows at Cam. [OOC: Because they are firing into melee, they have an equal probability to hit either combatant, since Cam and the Orc are roughly the same size.] However, in the intricate dance that is melee combat, Cam and the Orc move around so much that when the arrow fired by Orc #6 arrives, it is the Orc combatant who is on the pointy, jagged end of the arrow! The Orc is slain, a victim of 'friendly fire!' The Orc archers look at each other and just shrug before they draw fresh arrows to fire again. [OOC: Any actions for Odo and Shiyana?] [OOC: Oh, and don't be overly upset by the 'comedy of errors' that is the series of misses by most everyone. AD&D 1E is very different inthat respect from later editions of the game. First level characters only have about a 20-25% chance to score a hit under ordinary circumstances.
