Outlaw by Kane still had THP, so he's not dead yet.
Zombie Throng - Kruk deals 10 extra damage from close attack vuln.
Kane & Kruk - After affect of the slowed-dazed is slowed, and since you both saved last round, you're now slowed. Kane, technically, since you used shug it off, you started slowed, so you can roll you save for the end of last turn.
Mal, I don't know who you would think the best target is, the outlaw still standing or Gloom, so I rolled
1d2=2 for gloom.

The half-dead outlaw made a feign to Kane's left, and then shifted right, thrusting his spear behind the barbarian into Wil. But the outlaw's injured arm gave out during the attack, and Wil easily danced over the blade as it dug into the ground.
The Zombie horde could not agree on a target, stumbling this way and that, finally agreeing on Kane, who brains looked easier to get at. The mob hurled itself at kane, the zombies crawling over and under each other to get at him. The barbarian deflected some of the blows, but the crawled hands were too many.
The archer on the left wall moved closer to the gate to get a better view of the field. He let lose another bolt on Kane, but the shot missed.
The fat woman Alaria Scrunching her face again, ripping Kane out of space and making him reappear 5 feet to the right. Blood ran down his face from the intense pressure of the sudden movement. She ran for cover behind the wall, but could be heard saying,
"Brother Arleas is dead. We should retreat."
"No, I am in command now, and I have my chance to prove myself to the Brotherhood. These fools are weakened. Close the gates!" A second voice ordered. And a moment later the male mage, Strongheart, reappears from behind the wall moving through the gate.
"Your weak minds are mine!" The mage sent a powerful mental attack toward the two, and they lost control of their bodies.

[/sblock][sblock=Terrain Notes]
1. Difficult Terrain:
Snow Drifts: M9:O10 and M26:N28 and O27:O28
Snow-covered Rocks: R15, W21, X21:X22, H14
Treeline
2. The wall and gate are made of wood, 12' tall.
If standing on the wall, there is no cover bonus granted.
If prone atop the wall, the target has superior cover (-5) vs opponents on the ground.
3. The cliffs on the east and west side of the map are too steep to climb, so basically impassible, creating a bottleneck in the road.

Summary of Events
1. Bested Pirates en route to Allaria. Traveled on the ship
Wind's Will captained by
Captain Levenbrech, and mated by
Porse and
Trig.
2. Arrived in the port, to find it besieged by Lizards from the unending mire. Defeated lizards and met/teamed up with Charina.
3. Journeyed to Geardagas and asked the locals for information with mixed results (
link to the leads gathered).
4. Went to the temple of Netari, where the new priest,
Father Niris, has been tending to the ill (apparently quite poorly). He led the players into the catacombs, where his zombie minions ambushed. The priest, over confident, rambled on about
Hellview (
background reference for players).
5. Dealing a mortal blow to the Priest, he says
Master De Luccia (First time they have heard the name) cannot be stopped, and he stated that Greggor "
will be... among the first... at Hellview." The priest laid dying on the floor with his fallen minions.
6. As they approach Hellview, they encounter the ghost of
Sir Alistair Glasston, who begged them to enter the cave and retrieve his lost battleaxe.
7. They entered Hellview, and came across a portal, as well as some guards/workers. It seems they were using zombies to dig a new path near the portal...
8. They step through the portal into a bizarre world. A demon statue looms ahead, with a tall gate behind. The bodies of fallen adventurers, as well as a dead demon, lay about the floor. Wil Triggered the Demon statue trap, alerting the nearby demon's.
9. After a long battle, they slew all of the demons who had come through the hell gate, and they found
Sir Alistair Glasston's lost battleaxe. But Greggor was still missing, and there is the question of why the demons were digging.
10. Hergunna departed the group to alert the local militia, while the others pressed ahead North, trying to find the source of the demon-aligned miners, as well as the lost silver.
11. They came upon a wall blocking the road to the mine.
Brother Arleas leads a band of outlaws and zombies to defend the mine entrance.
