From Citadel to Bastion: The Sunless Citadel

[Vargo]

Khaira will move one square to the northeast, and continue to take potshots at any target that avails itself - she takes the step to open up her field of fire so that she's not shooting through her own ranks.

 

[Uzumaki]

Florian sighs as he meets the hobgoblin's charge. Or we can do this the hard way, he thinks, as he attacks the hobgoblin he was glaring at (I6) with his greatsword.

 

[GruTheWanderer]

Eshand, Khaira, and Quendros attempt to send bolts and arrows through the ranks of their friends into the goblinoids. Eshand gets a lucky shot against one of the hobgoblins, who falls backwards with a bolt through his eye.

All three goblins swarm Khudaglun. One of them gets lucky and hits with a morningstar (5 damage).

Florian drives another hobgoblin to the ground with a mighty swing of his greatsword. The final hobgoblin strives to hit the warrior, but misses. Lucas swings and misses.

Khudaglun attacks the goblins with his hand axes, smashing one of them in the face.

The noncombatants continue to back up towards the walls of the room. One backs into the door in the northeast corner, stares at it for a moment, then decides to open it and call for help.

 

[Catulle]

Seeing Florian's momentum build, Lucas switched his attention to the goblins battering at Khudaglun's expert defences. Thinking that their focus on the dwarf would act to his advantage, he aimed a straight chop at the nearest creature's skull.

 

[National Acrobat]

Eshand will be keeping an eye on that door that was just opened and as soon as the help arrives, lob his other sleep spell in that general direction. "I'll try to take care of the reinforcements when they arrive!"

 

[Inez Hull]

Khudaglun continues his attacks against the Goblins, muttering under his breath something about "lucky hits".

 

[Vargo]

Khaira continues to spend her ammo at a high rate - trying to thin the ranks of Goblins threatening Khudaglun.

 

[Uzumaki]

Florian swings his greatsword to cut down the last hobgoblin.

 

[Vargo]

Khaira adds: "When we knock them down, get into the room and form a skirmish line facing north! Leave some spaces for the archers!

 

[GruTheWanderer]

Two well-placed shots by Quendros and Khaira fly past the dwarf's shoulders and sink into each of the goblins. One of the creatures is staggered, while the other can barely stand. They both swing at the dwarf. The staggered goblin hits Khudaglun (4 damage), then drops to the floor unconscious. The other misses, and receives a faceful of hand axe.

Florian takes a minor wound from the remaining hobgoblin (1 damage). This time Lucas provides the response, taking off the creature's head with a critical hit.

Through the open door in the northwest the chieftain's chamber is visible. Four goblins and two hobgoblins come running through the open door. The blue, the shaman, and the chief are visible behind them.

Eshand drops a sleep spell on the new group, but most of them resist the effect. The lead goblin slumps to the floor.
