We killed the three gnolls who were waiting to ambush us in the entrance to their cave, and none of us were hurt! We're bad-asses!Hm, but if they were waiting in ambush, that means they knew we were coming. I creep up to the corner to make sure no one's coming.Oh, two gnolls coming up the stairs? Oh what, I hear more coming? Eh, okay. They shoot arrows and miss? Cool, I fall back to the entry cave.Well, we can't really outrun them if they chase us, because of heavy armor. I've already got my one spiritual hammer up, so I'll summon another and have them flank the near side of this hallway. Let's fall back and wait for them to come through. We'll cut off the first two from the rest of their group, then bottleneck anyone behind them. What, they shot the wizard? Why weren't you behind cover? Well, better not risk any of them getting to the wizard in melee. I take my turn. The hammers go into the hallway to attack the same archer, and I step up to block the hallway. The dwarf follows me to seal- . . . what, oh, it's not his turn yet? Well, okay.Six gnolls stream past me and my hammers, and they killed the wizard? And the fighter just got shot four times by gnolls with spring attack, who can aim almost perfectly through the swarm of allies in the way? Dwarf, um . . . Oh, you missed your attack.My hammers attack. Hit! Well great, that's only 9 gnolls left.They killed the dwarf? And the halfling already ran away? I run too. No, halfling, I won't throw you my healing potion, so that the gnolls can't loot my body.Oh, the gnolls shot me to death? And the one who we injured drank my potion. Well great.</blockquote>
