[QUOTE="GreenKarl, post: 6940579, member: 6801242"] The strange incent men seem to act with great quickness and drawing weapons and readying their shields they rush the heroes almost silently except for the strange light hissing noise they seem to be emitting. The first two rush the cleric and chop at him with the rusty axes. They work together with uncanny coordination and Tirion suffers several cuts. Then the next pair rush the dwarf with much the same results… their uncanny coordination and teamwork slipping the Uhtred’s defense and his armor, scoring several wounds against him.
