[QUOTE="TwoHeadsBarking, post: 5403609, member: 82251"] [sblock=DM-ly secrets, read at your own peril!] While the ants [I]could[/I] dart in and out of melee/RoS range, I'm not having them do that. First of all, they aren't too bright, and they normally don't need to rely on such tactics. Second, and more important, if you still had six people in your party, I'd certainly be making the best possible use of their mobility. But killing these things is taking long enough without me making it so only your leaders can hurt them. So they're hovering close enough to the ground that they can be targeted in melee, and they aren't hitting-and-running as optimally as they should. Besides, I have plenty of other encounters in which to be mean. No reason to burn out on the first one. Regarding getting someone over from Sharn to your location on short notice, anything is possible with the power of non-linear story-telling. The hard part will probably be getting a striker.[/sblock] The queen flails frantically at Rohna, but the severity of its injuries prevent it from connecting. The surviving drones swarm Olaf in an attempt to protect their queen, but the boar's incredible toughness protects it from the worst the insects have to offer. Naturally, the river creature is completely incapable of penetrating Thalen's defenses. [sblock=Status] A: 109 damage taken, [COLOR=Red]bloodied[/COLOR], Marked by Rohna, -2 to attacks. D1: 10 damage taken D2: 26 damage taken D3: 6 damage taken D4: 13 damage taken C2: 24 damage taken, Marked by Thalen Rohna: 49/69+5, AP spent, Rain of Steel; Resist 5 Olaf: 73/85+3 Tondrek: 62/64+5, Resist 5 Doggie: 9/9+5, Resist 5 Thalen: 74/82+5, Form of Winter's Herald; Resist 5, marked by C1 Venakhad: 35/39+5, surges 6/8, Resist 5, +2 to all defenses Olaf provokes an OA from moving back for a charge, but it [URL="http://invisiblecastle.com/roller/view/2804234/"]misses[/URL].
