OOC: Looks like we're overdue for a new thread to be started, eh, Scotley? At least, the last time I checked they still wanted thread size limited to 1000 posts......

OOC: Yeah we are way over. Lets finish up this fight and I'll get a new thread going.
 

Initiative:

Geoffrey 15
H'Roosh 11
Gnurl 11
Radoon 9
Zurrik 7
Hounds initiative (1d20+3=18)

Geoffrey continues to wield the force weapon to good effect and a hound drops from the tree where Zurrik is battling.

Seeing that the main part of the battle will likely take place at the mouth of the 'ravine' rather than within the traps as planned, H'Roosh moves quickly to position himself closer to his friends in the trees. He deftly avoids the sharpened stakes and places himself where anyone approaching will have to pass through at least some of them.

He then hurls a Tanglefoot Bag (1d20+4=15) at one of the hounds confronting Zurrik and puts it out of commission.

Gnurl now takes out his Wand of Magic Missile [cl9]and fires three screeching bolts of bright blue force into the hound in B10, and two more into the hound in B11. The missiles pass disturbingly close to H'Roosh's ears on their way to their targets. Neither hound falls.

Radoon manages to cause injury to, but not quite fell his foe.

Balancing in the tree, Zurrik again swings Warlock's Edge with two hands at a hound in front of him, but his blade is fouled in the branches.

One active hound in each tree attacks, but neither manages to get a hit this time.

"Not to be too nitpicky," says Gnurl to H'Roosh, "but I thought the whole point of this was to make the hounds come to us in the defenses that we had prepared. We're fighting their fight out here. For about two silvers, I'd leave Radoon and Zurik to their chosen fate! But....ah....hell, I guess we'd better go save them after all. I hope Geoffrey doesn't get too lonesome back there all by himself!"

Gnurl's possible action for next round (but if the remaining hounds look to be pretty well handled, Gnurl will not burn his spell):
G-Gnome moves to F7 and cuts loose with a 10-die lightning bolt that should be able from that position to catch both hounds fighting Zurrik, while leaving the Big Z himself untouched. OOC: Question, too, I'm not exactly familiar with how Sudden Maximize works - can Gnurl maximize the Lightning Bolt if he gives up a prepared 5th level spell? (If so, will that be instead of or in addition to the prepared lightning bolt?) If he can do that, then he will, if not, then I've already marked off the right spell on his sheet and provided damage for a 10 die bolt below.
lightning bolt damage, 10d6 = 35 10-die lightning bolt damage (10d6=35)

Zurrik Odeil 40/54 (max66) AC 25/T15/FF22 Con 12/14

Seeing the two hounds fall, Zurrik tries to take out the last one with another two-handed swing from Warlock's Edge, getting his best swing in yet.

[sblock=OOC and rolls]

Warlock's Edge +10 d10+4 19-20/x2 with Hideous Blow 7d6 [Sickening Blast (DC 14, FortNeg, sickened 1 min; L2)]

Attack Roll: 18
Damage if a 18 hits: 36

Scotley, if a 18 hits, must know if the hound is "alive" so Zurrik gains HP from the Lesser Crystal of Lifedrinking.

Uses left of Least Iron Ward Diamond 8/10 for the day.
Uses left of Lesser Crystal of Lifedrinking 10/10 for the day.
Use left of Third Eye Crystal 1/1 for the day.

Zurrik is currently DR 1/cold iron + DR 1/-

Zurrik and Radoon finish off the remaining hounds in the trees with a little help from Geoffrey's spiritual weapon. The last one on the ground is held by the tanglefoot bag, but not for long...

OOC: I believe that sudden metamagic feats do not require a higher level spell slot.

OOC: The hounds are 'living', but the one Zurrik hit was slain.
