the Last Resort Inn, nine bells (night)
OK updated attack plan!
Kitsch and Villard head back outside and crawl back over to outside the room. The windows are still mostly closed, so they wait for Torrin and Zoraster knock on the door (with Black Jack hidden back around the corner).
Watching from outside, Kitsch and Villard notices that the three men jump to their feet and pull weapons. They seem paranoid and worried about trouble… The one that was chanting says something to the other two, and pulls a vial up from his belt.
One of the men goes to the door and asks who it is, when Torrin gives the 'management; we have a problem" bluff…
Bluff check 17 +6 =23, vs. Sense Motive of 9, 7 and 18
…to which they seem to buy part of it. The one near the door, puts his short sword behind his back and readies to open the door, the second one stands behind the door with a short sword in one hand and a dagger in the other. The third one pours the continents of the vial onto his short sword… Kitsch thinks it looks rather dark green…
Craft 4 +10 =14
…but he is not sure what it might be. He moves to sit back down at the table and holds the sword under the table in the shadows.
Kitsch opens the window as quietly as he can…
Move Silent 6 +12 =18 vs. Listen checks 10, 8, and 8
…no one seems to notice. He then gets into position to fire at the men inside.
Villard also moves into position…
Move Silent 7 +11 =18 vs. Listen checks of 17, 16, and natural 20!
…but the man sitting at the table turns at some unknown sound and looks right at the ranger! He yells "Assassins!"
Surprise round partial actions only!
22 - Torrin

Actions?NOW actions based on what you all said…
Torrin draws and stabs the ruffian blocking the door…
Attack roll 6 +6 =12 a hit (flat-footed); Damage is 2d6 (rapier and surprise strike) = 6 points
…catching him a nasty cut along his shoulder. The man cries out in pain and falls back from the door.
Black Jack, his saber draw, pushes the door open and steps forward to stab the man also…
(still flat-footed) Attack roll 7 +10 =17 a hit. Damage is 1d6 +2 +2d6 = 10 points of damage
…stabbing the man in the gut. He grunts and falls to the ground.
Villard fires his bow at the sitting man…
Attack roll 6 +8 +1 (PB shot) =15 a hit, Damage is 1d8 +2 + 2d6 (still flat-footed) = 16 points of damage
…catching the man in the shoulder with the arrow. He grunt in pain but does not go down!
Zoraster tumbles and rolls into the room, drawing his sword. The man behind the door has yet to react but has a sword and dagger drawn, and the little swashbuckler stabs him…
Attack roll 13 +11 =24 a hit, Damage is 1d4 +4 = 6points
…slashing him along his left thigh. The man grunts in pain and staggers back, but does not fall.
The man sitting at the table staggers to his feet and pulls his sword, he moves 5ft towards Zoraster and yells "Die heretic!"…
Attack roll total 10 a miss![/b]"
…but he can't hit the fast little pirate!
Kitsch whispers a quite word and fires his crossbow at the man attacking Zoraster…
Attack roll 12 +11 =23 a hit. Damage is 1d8 +1d6 = 11 points of damage
…catching him with a freezing bolt in his stomach! The man curses and turns onto Kitsch with hatred in his eyes.

Black Jack moves to the last man… and while the man can't react yet he is dropping his weapons saying "I surrender! I didn't do nothing! You can take all the money ye want!"
