Montys attack with both, bless and charge bonus, and hammers the orc with his greatsword and the orc is down....The hobgoblin goes next, uses his Charged Arrow stance burning it for the encounter, shoots Monty with it, who is now looking pretty bad.The goblin moves round to flank Monty, hoping next round to use its advantageous attack stance for next roundRound 2 Arin uses his sleep enchantment next round from his reserve of spells, burning it for the whole day until he can rest properly. The hobgoblin has 2 good saves, one isnt Will and it collapses into slumber.The orc is next, the only other stance it has left is Toughness, it uses this upping its hitpoints for the encounter, but burns it for the day. On its simple attack it misses Monty.Derek uses his holyblast next. It can do X/2 damage to an opponent, or heal X hp on an ally, or do 2x X damage to undead, and he can use it every round. He opts to heal Monty for X amount of healing....Monty is next. being 1st level human he has three martial stances, (Charge which he has used for this encounter, Power Attack which does uber-damage once per encounter and Swordfocus which is an always on bonus to hit with his sword). He is engaged by two opponents and wished he had taken Cleave....As the orc has gone he uses Power Attack stance on the goblin, killing it, and burining Power Attack for this encounter.Round 3Arin the Arcanist uses his energyblast magic-stance...it hits the last orc and he rolls high damage (X), the toughness stance of the orc keeps it up and fighting.The orc hits monty with its simple attack and does some moderate damage.Derek uses his holyblast next and hits the orc for some slight damage, but it is looking bad now.Monty is next. He has burned all his useful satnces for this encounter, does a simple attack, hits the orc for some slight damage, but it is enough to down it...Round 4Arin uses his magical-detection, which he can use every round, and starts scanning the bodies for goodies...Derek opts to heal Monty for X amount of healing....and he is nearly fully healed.Monty dispatches the sleeping hobgoblin.By the time Arin has finsihed scanning for treasure Derek has fully healed Monty. The encounter is over so many of their stances re-charge and they head off toward the dungeon....Thoughts? would you play this game?John</blockquote>
