[Adventure] Desolation Island (DM: jsb420; JUDGE: covaithe)

[H.M.Gimlord]

Ixenvalignat walks up next to Finnean, "This looks dangerous," The dragonborn inclines, or rather declines, his head toward the halfing, "Maybe you should take point on this one," The comment was meant to be a joke, but evidently the rogue did not understand it that way, "Hey! Wait a momen!...Oh nevermind."

Ixenvalignat tries to keep up with the halfling as they rush into battle, hoping that his words would not bring the demise of the little guy.[sblock=Actions]Surprise Action: Move to U37

OOC: Are we supposed to roll initiative during the surprise round or after?

 

[Son of Meepo]

Finnean doesn't wait for Ixen to finish asking the first time. The halfling darts forward and lets a bullet fly from his sling.

"Hey Ix... I think I got him!"

[Son of Meepo]

OOC: Who's your target?

OOC: We had been talking about hitting the lead blackblade at W17. I think he's the only non-minion in range.

[sblock=Actions]Move: Move to V34[/sblock]

 

[H.M.Gimlord]

OOC: Are we supposed to roll initiative during the surprise round or after?

OOC: Technically, you're supposed to roll initiative at the beginning of combat (i.e.: before the surprise round). That way all PCs and NPCs who are not surprised would know what order to go in. This rule is getting confused because we're playing Malenkirk's rules, where, in our case, only the good guys are "not surprised" and we're not going in an initiative order.

 

[treex]

OOC: Gonna roll initiative. IC is down for me... EDIT: Sigh, nevermind. Neither rolls let me go first T^T

Round 1 – Goblin Encampment
[sblock=Previous Rounds] Round 1 [/sblock]
"More goblins!," Fierro observes, as the party draws close to the greenish light. "Maybe these ones is beetle wrestling fans. I go find out." The armor clad bugbear clanks out into the open, drawing ample attention to himself and giving other party members an opportunity to duck out of the spotlight, should they so choose. He bellows: "¡Hermanitos, escuchanme! I am Fierro, El Matascarabajos. Put down weapons and stop mucking with green light. Help puny Daunton people find witch lady so they can take Fierro home to Hzaka in time for grand finals next month. Maybe you even get special mention at Luchas de Scarabajos tournament!," And then crosses his arms and beams magnanimously, as though no one in their right mind could possibly refuse such an offer. (MOVE Action)

Jesse conjures an arrow from nowhere and holds it by the nock...the head points toward the closest goblin, quivering as though it was anxious to fly forth. As the tiefling lets go, the arrow strikes true and so was the first casualty of the encounter. (Auto-HIT)

Ixenvalignat walks up next to Finnean, "This looks dangerous," The dragonborn inclines, or rather declines, his head toward the halfing, "Maybe you should take point on this one," The comment was meant to be a joke, but evidently the rogue did not understand it that way, "Hey!

Finnean doesn't wait for Ixen to finish asking the first time. The halfling darts forward and lets a bullet fly from his sling. "Hey Ix... I think I got him!" (Free: Shift & HIT)

OOC: I'm just waiting on the fighter to go. Wanting to see where he goes off to first before I plan my action. With such open terrain and lots of creatures and difficult terrain. Nowhere to hide, makes this map rather difficult for my PC haha! Decisions, decisions.
