[QUOTE="IndyPendant, post: 2355327, member: 8738"] The goblin to the west just looks contemptuous again, but the one to the east, directly facing Kuma, stares up at him in wide-eyed dismay. All three attack again, two on Ydyr and the remaining one on Kuma. Ydyr just barely manages to dodge that first goblin's second attack, but the other two don't even come close. Then Kuma, figuring he would be unable to clear the barricade in a jump, instead climbs over it, risking attacks from two of the goblins--and the one facing him directly hits him in the chest, almost knocking him back over the wall again! However, Kuma manages to complete his climb over the wall, and attacks that goblin. Unhampered by the barricade, his sword easily finds its target, slicing right through the goblin's neck. In a smooth motion, he brings the sword arcing around to the other goblin within reach, the one Ydyr wounded, and his sword strikes the barricade again--this time, [i]after[/i] cleaving straight through the second goblin. [size=1]((Goblins' attacks: 15, 10, 6. Goblins' AoOs: 4, 21. Damage: 4. Kuma's attack: 13+4=17. Damage: 5+3=8. Cleave: 19+4=23. Crit check: 3+4=7. Damage: 6+3=9.))[/size] Jair follows Kuma's lead, climbing over the barricade to attack the single remaining goblin. That goblin strikes out at him desperately with his morningstar, and hits a glancing blow before Jair plants himself on the other side, and attacks! Unfortunately, the goblin corpse beneath him causes him to lose balance and his thrust slides off the goblin's small shield. Lehko, heedless of the odds of hitting, once more twists down smoothely and grabs another javelin nearby, hurling it at the lone goblin, but it sails high. Ydyr, seeing no way to cross the barricade and still reach this no-longer-scornful goblin, attacks him over the wall, but once again the crenellations get in his way. [size=1]((Kobold's AoO: 17. Damage: 1. Jair's attack: 6+0=6. Lehko's attack: 5-4-4=-3. Ydyr's attack: 16+2-4=14.))[/size] Jerek races up to the barricade and tries to leap over it--clearing it cleanly, if just barely! He completes his movement by getting into position for a clear shot, and looses an arrow--that slices a clean runnel along the beleagered goblin's armour, but doesn't strike home. Terrek attacks that goblin as well, but misses completely.
