(OOC) Scourge of Daggerford (Full)

[jmucchiello]

I'll just be adjusting Escella's location when I have a moment to really look at the map.

 

[KahlessNestor]

I remembered I don't have ANY means of affecting range. No cantrips, no crossbows/bows/javelins...nothing!
I could cast...but I don't have many spells remaining...we may need them...

Improvised weapon with rocks? Otherwise stand by Angis. He has 11 handaxes and 1 dagger, besides his heavy crossbow. Can you use any of those?

 

[KahlessNestor]

OKAY, we're BACK. Sorry about the delay in this game, I did that silly thing that I sometimes do and I started another game instead of giving myself a break. I know!

A few notes for you:
1) Don't miss that you can have a bonus 15 feet of movement before taking your R1 turn. I clumped you up for 'sneaking up' but you can move into slightly better positions before the wolves start howling.
2) Yes, that is a way down the cliff there at the bottom of the map (AG37 or so). At it's highest point, the cliff is just over 20 feet. The lower cliff closer to the river is similar.
3) The orc at W27 looks pretty badass. Carries himself with confidence. Has two swords.
4) The orc at R28 has one eye missing and wrapped in cloth (freshly gouged). Vairar and Darfin definitely know what that means. Anyone who rolls a dc12 history or religion does too. If you don't know what it means, feel free to ask.

You should make quick work of this group, but you never know....

History and religion check: 1D20 = [16] = 16

I missed the part with Tommi running down?!?! Why!!?!??! No one is dashing after...

 

[KahlessNestor]

Angis is following slowly, shooting as he goes. Angis is better in melee, but he's in no hurry. He's fine shooting orcs as he goes. He isn't going to let Tommi take the brunt of it.

 

[MetaVoid]

Vairar planned on waiting at the edge to do some damage...now with the two going down no one will get to him. Wasted action...Tommi is hidden, the orcs could theoretically pass him by so he gets a free shot at the caster. Unless the wolves smell him

Tommi should be fine. He's hidden at a dc of (what was it, 22?), and they don't even really have a reason to search for him with Vairar standing right there. Even the wolves would likely run past.

 

[gargoyleking]

It's true, sometimes you've gotta let the rogues rogue.

 

[KahlessNestor]

Well, Angis is still up on the top ridge, so the plan can still work. Hidden only works once Then Tommi's stuck. Angis should be within a move to get down there now, though.

 

[MetaVoid]

It would be funny if this 'easy' fight turns out to be TPK because of some random perception roll and us rushing down to save the rogue

But I believe Tommi can survive if nothing else by disengage, run, run round
