Defenders of the Blackfeather - Tariff of Relkingham

[garyh]

Hal moves around the guard who's been attacking Sena, coordinating with the cleric to surround the sentry. His sword then strikes deep into the guard's exposed flank.

Move action - Move to M27.
Standard action - Reaping Strke against Green, with Combat Advantage.

Reaping Strike against Green (1d20 11 3 2=29, 1d10 6=16)

Hits AC 29 for 16 damage. Green is also marked by Hal. That surely hits, but for the record, if it didn't, Hal would still have done 2 damage based on using Reaping Strike.

If Green is dropped by this attack, Hal gains 5 temp HP (overriding his current 3, giving him 5 total).

Since he'll be starting his turn adjacent to Hal, Green will take 1d10 damage from Rain of Steel (if he's still alive).
