OOC: Manz, you haven't yet posted Eusebius' Bless spell (happens in round #2).

When Eusebius sees the orc close on Beamer he calls out to the halfling, "Beamer, watch out for the orc. Come this way!"

OOC: Quick post. No more alchemists fire in the backpack now.

Does Ogrin get an AoO against the orc climbing the wagon? It looks like they'd have to move through his threatened area.


Ogrin yells "Good shot!" and turns back to grin, only to see an Orc cutting down the kid. Swearing, he moves to engage the new threat, pulling out and giving a potion to the standing kid, saying "Here. Give him this. Then stay down and out of the way."

OOC: CLW potion.

Rasereit grunts as the ogre's greatclub slams against his head. He doesn't let his dizziness slow his dance down, though, and as he darts to and fro, he slashes (23) and bashes (22) at the ogre's vulnerable legs. (16 damage) "Come on, hang in there, lads, hang in there!"

From his hidden position, talbin launches a sling bullet against the ogre and moves to k22 to hide again.

Attack with sling: 18 Damage: 10 rolls are here
Hide check: 21
He designates the nearby orc (no 4) as his dodge opponent.

10:35:06 am. Soft wind from the West. Overcast.
Round 2 (con't)

Juliana (NPCed) takes a swing at the giant with her guisarme. Off balance, though, she misses.

Eusebius positions himself, then calls upon Hyrag's blessing. Everyone in the group immediately feels a surge of power. (+1 on attack rolls for all allies)

Talbin silently plants a sling bullet in the remaining ogre's head. Few notice where the bullet came from. The dwarf then efficiently cuts down the wounded giant.

Lothar steps back towards Arkenthrasher and reloads his heavy crossbow.

A small white hand, unseen except by Banion & Juliana appears next to Juliana. It touches her armor, and she immediately feels weaker, as though drained of blood (8 dmg).

Hugh slashes ineffecitively at his orc opponent.

Round 3
(10:35:12)
Ogrin fishes a potion of curing out of his pouch and hands it to his last boy ally. (The orc jumped on the wagon - not climbed. Drink a pint for me in Dublin & invite me next time!)

Nodis, male human shaper 5, HP 31/31, AC 16, PP 8/35

Nodis's construct continue doing what it does best, pushing towards the mass of orcs and smashing one of them with its whip like arms. The orc next to the dead one, however, can dodge the ectoplasmic ball.

The next construct appear at Nodis's side, and crushes two skeletons with a single swing.

While this happens, Nodis moves towards the remaining giant and summons more ectoplasm, shaping it in the form of a large and sharp spear of glass and launches it at the two headed monstrosity, seriously wounding it.

[sblock=ooc]The first construct kills orc #12, but fails the Cleave attack.. Then advances 5 feet to the south, to 27-H.

The newly appeared construct (same stats as the first) appear at 22-E and kills two skeletons (deals 11 and 9 damage with the regular and Cleave attacks)

Nodis moves north, to 13-G, and manifests Crystal shard spending 5 power points on it, doing 18 damage to Validus[/sblock]

Beamer sees the coming, but is unable to finish his spell before the orc is breathing down his neck. He hears Eusebius steps away from the orc toward Eusebius. He fires another magic missle at the ettin.

OOC:
magic missle (3d4+3=12)
Spells remaining: 5/3/4

Round 3 (10:35:12) (con't)

Banion and Beamer blast the ettin with arcane and psionic fire, dealing serious damage. The bloodied beast refuses to die, though, and bats away at Juliana yet again. It hits twice with its battle axe. Juliana is barely able to cling to consciousness. (15 dmg)

At this point, Juliana is saved, as Nodis hurls his crystal shard. The shard peirces the giant through the heart. It staggers backwards, and falls with an earthshaking crash.

Meanwhile Nodis' other constructs cut a swath of destruction among orcs and skeletons. One destroys the two skeletons fighting the soldiers. The other brings down an orc to the south.

The last skeleton slashes at Torvin with its scimitar. It miraculously penetrates his heavy armor, causing the paladin(?) to grunt in pain. The zombies don't move.

The soldier swings Razh's warhammer at the skeleton from behind, but still manages to miss. Torvin, however, connects with his heavy mace, shattering the last skeleton.

The orc near Beamer charges out of the woods and hacks at the halfling with its falchion. Beamer easily evades the blow.

One orc moves right by Talbin without seeing him, and closes in on Nodis. The orcs swarm over the southern construct. One hits a solid blow with its falchion (9 pts). Another hits Hugh. Another strikes down the last soldier.

ooc: Notice that Crystal shard has Close range (7 squares at his current level). Nodis couldn't hit the ettin from his postion on the map - that's why Nodis had to move north, to 13-G or around that position
