[QUOTE="Goonalan, post: 5184821, member: 16069"] H1 Keep on the Shadowfell Encounter #2 A1 Kobold Ambush My intention was to have the PCs have another easy encounter at the Dragon Burial Site encounter, which I was going to get the PCs to try to play without using their Daily Powers and/or Action Points- a kind of practice run for the real thing. All that however bit the dust with Dirty and Winstanley's shenanigans in Wrafton's Inn. And so the PCs head out of Winterhaven, briefed about the Kobold's lair- supposedly hidden behind a waterfall, they have a crude map in their possession- things should be easy, or so they think. The sun is out then and the PCs are back on the road, Dirty with a sore head, and Winstanly looking a little sheepish... [url=http://www.flickr.com/photos/40504969@N08/4879265727/][img]http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4093/4879265727_a1c50d5ce5.jpg[/img][/url] This time the Kobold ambushers are better prepared for the PCs, and well hidden- although DC19 Perception check, as required in the module, is a little rough. However of the PCs only Grey Morlock gets above 10 on their Perception checks. The Kobolds have a surprise round... morning all! Good Guys McGyver, Male Dragonborn Paladin of Bahamut 1 (HP27) Dirty Biskit, Male Dwarven Fighter 1 (HP31) Kaspard, Female Half-Elf Cleric of Bahamut 1 (HP26) Winstanley Portico, Male Halfling Rogue 1 (HP25) Grey Morlock, Male Human Wizard 1 (HP23) Bad Guys 625XP Level 2 Encounter.

Surprise Round. KD1- Charge with Surprise McGyver; Miss. KD2- Charge with Suprise and Mob Attack McGyver; Miss. KD3- Charge with Surprise, Mob Attack & Combat Advantage McGyver; Miss. KS- Move- Sneaks & Hides behind boulders, get a better attack on Grey. KW- Acid Orb with Surprise McGyver; Miss. Time to play 8 minutes including setting up map and minis. End of Round- at which point the players laughed at me, I must have looked a little crestfallen. Good Guys McGyver, Male Dragonborn Paladin of Bahamut 1 (HP27/27) Dirty Biskit, Male Dwarven Fighter 1 (HP31/31) Kaspard, Female Half-Elf Cleric of Bahamut 1 (HP26/26) Winstanley Portico, Male Halfling Rogue 1 (HP25/25) Grey Morlock, Male Human Wizard 1 (HP23/23) Bad Guys 625XP Level 2 Encounter.
