Catastrophe!

OOC: WHOOPS! I just did exactly what Corragan did and gave some of my creatures a full round of actions... For KW7 and KS 3, ignore their map possitions. KW7 should be one square to the right (I22), and KS is still next to Ignatz at F23 Sha'kar, feel free to take your surprise round actions. IGNATZ: Feel free to take an attack of opportunity against Soldier 3, as his attack will have had to occur while next to you.

Sha'kar sees Corrigan getting pounded on by the creatures and lays a hand on his ally's armor, enchanting it to make it stronger. The bolt of electricity that normally is released to attack the nearest enemy fizzles and fails to do anything.

OOC: As far as I can tell by reading the Rules Compendium, you still get a turn while surprised you just can't take any actions. Really, it just means that you get Start and End of turn effects as normal.

End of Turn: 6 damage.
Save vs Ongoing Poison (1d20=9) (FAIL)
No Action: I will use Memory of a Thousand Lifetimes to turn the saving throw into a success. It's a No Action power, so should be usable even when surprised.[/sblock]

OOC: Why am I listed as only having 12 hp? I had 42 hp and 2 thp, took 5 damage from an OA in the surprise round, took 7 from this most recent attack and then 5 ongoing. 44-5-7-5=27 hp remaining for me. Nevermind!

The fight becomes a blur, and Ignatz leaves coherent thought behind him in the wake of his destructive rampage. Adrenaline and primal vigor flood him, and he fills the cavern with a roar. His two blows against his prey are interrupted by it's poisonous sting, but Ignatz barely notices. He buries his gouge in the insect with an overhead swing, then lifts the broken corpse with one hand and throws it at another nearby kruthik, crushing it to death.

From inaction to action The Cursed One's first movement is blindingly fast despite the venom attacking his body with cramps. In a flash he moves behind the kruthik to flank with Shak'ar, massive blade flashing, curse hurling, an unnatural darkness seems to surround the creature: "The Sun take your eyes Dirt Shovler!"

The carnage wrought is absolutely devastating! The kruthik is completely split in two from the devastating blow, it blood splashing out over every single creature in the cave. Strangely though the blood that touches the kruthiks seems to glow just for a moment.

"Come and stare into the Sun, diggers!" he howls spinning on his heels to lash out at one of the heavily armoured Kruthiks tossing around poisoned spikes. His eyes failing to adjust tothe gloom misdirect the attack and it scrapes harmlessly off the thick plates that protect the creature's back.

[sblock=Actions]
uses Crimson blade to shift to L20 to flank KW8 with Shak'ar: +2 power bonus to atk cancels darkness penalty
Minor Action: Curse KW8
Free Action: Assassin's Shroud KW8 which I will invoke
Standard: Valorous Smite (gulp!) every kruthik within 3 of me is marked by my Sanction (Marked TENT) which I think is ... all of them.
He ... hehe ... he... oh dear ...

And that is a crit!!! Crimson Blade means my melee attacks crit on 18-20 this round!
2d12+5+1d6+1d6 = 41 + high crit weapon!! rolling Killed outright.

Move: take the long route to N18 avoiding OAtks
Action Point: Eldritch Strike vs KS1
ends turn next to 1 Kruthik: Do soldiers have the same trait of 2 dmg if you end turn next to them?

[/sblock]

[sblock=Oh wait ... a no round in surprise round?]
So TCO ended his turn next to 3 Kruthik = 3x2 dmg (reduced by sword) = 3 dmg
And suffers 5 poison dmg (reduced by sword) = 4 poison dmg
rolls Saving Throw vs Poison & Slow
Saved so not slowed at start of Round 1: (will edit move above)

OOC: I think Corragan should still be in I20, not J19 (I was going to shift to J19, but couldn't because of the suprise round). Have I missed something? If I'm right, I think Corragan should have taken 2 less damage as he was adjacent to only one living Kruthik at the end of his suprise round turn. Also worker 8 is listed as undamaged; it should have taken 10 damage from Corragan's Grasping Tide, so will be dead after TCO's huge damage

Corragan reels back from the attack, shifting forms as he does into the now familiar form of a monitor lizard. As he does so, he lashes out at the nearest Kruthik before stepping back to strike at another of the creatures.

OOC: Sorry about the very slow post rates guys! I'll try to pick this up in the future. As for right now, I'm at home and sick in bed, so I don't have access to my maps (I really need to install this stuff at home so I can transfer it over the weekend!). I should be back at work tomorrow and I'll do my best to give you guys an update and a new map (since AoE hell + Ignatz + TCO has meant the deaths of lots of creatures... Yaknow... speaking of which... if this continues on like this, I'm going to have to raise the encounter levels here... pffft... and I worried that there were only five of you...HAH!)

 

[CrimsonFlameWielder]

OOC: Ignatz, TCO, and Corragan have taken their first full round turns (*cries* I can't believe they're almost all dead before the end of the first round! *continues crying*) Just need Sha'kar and Dina before the few remaining Kruthik get their turns. NOTE: I'm trying something new with the map (hoping to make it a bit more clear), so let me know if you would prefer that I turn the token labels back on and I'll do so, otherwise, just give the coordinates of the creature and I'll be happy to figure out the rest!

OOC: Vision Note: Only the squares to the left of column 10 are in bright light. Everything else on the map is in Dim Light. If you do not have Low-light or Dark vision, creatures you attack have partial concealment.
