Insight's "Against the Blackstag Cult" (IC) - Chapter One: The River Barge Incident

ROUND FOUR
Init Order:
IADOS: 22
ULRIK: 16
BLACKSTAG ARCHERS: 15
REGDAR: 15
EREVAN: 13
ARJHAN: 10

IADOS takes a Move Action to move from AD67 to AB63 (4 squares).
IADOS takes a Minor Action to use Warlock's Curse (Fate of the Void) on Blackstag Archer 2.
IADOS takes a Standard Action to use Eldritch Blast on Blackstag Archer 2: MISS!

ULRIK takes a Move Action to stand up from prone.
ULRIK takes a Standard Action to move from AD75 to AC69 (6 squares).
Note1: It is a Move Action to stand up from prone, not a Minor Action.
Note2: At this point, you are out of range for most of your powers. In fact, the only power that can hit the archers is Sleep, a daily. If you still want to spend an action point and use that power on the archers, let me know and I'll edit this round.

Blackstag Archer 1 takes a Move Action to move from AB57 to AE57 (3 squares).
Blackstag Archer 1 takes a Standard Action to use Rain of Arrows on Square AJ61 - attack EREVAN: MISS!; attack ARJHAN (+2 bonus for cover): MISS!
Blackstag Archer 2 takes a Move Action to move from AD56 to AJ53 (6 squares).
Blackstag Archer 2 takes a Standard Action to fire his Longbow at EREVAN: HIT! for 6 damage

REGDAR takes a Move Action to move from AM69 to AM63 (6 squares).
REGDAR takes a Free Action to reload his Longbow.
REGDAR takes a Standard Action to fire his Longbow at Blackstag Archer 1: MISS!
Note: I'm not sure how you think you can move 12 squares as a Move Action, so I put you 6 squares ahead.

EREVAN takes a Move Action to move from AH62 to AF58 (4 squares).
EREVAN takes a Standard Action to Second Wind: heals 7 hit points (18/24).
EREVAN spends an Action Point to use his Longsword against Blackstag Archer 1: MISS!

ARJHAN takes a Move Action to move from AK63 to AE59 (6 squares).
Note: You moved more than 2 squares, so your Stealth check is even worse :-S You and Erevan could try to set up a flank on your next turn.


- END OF ROUND FOUR -


Note1: Please see the attached map. Enlarge it to around 400% to see stuff (it's a big freaking map!). The map is updated to the end of Round Four.
Note2: On the map, I have marked difficult terrain as a triangle and cover as the Greek letter Theta (I can't seem to to reproduce them here - you'll figure it out). If you are behind 2 squares of cover, you are considered to have total cover.

OCC: Ulrik does not have sleep prepared anyways (flaming sphere is normally prepared), so he can't use it.

IC: Quick to act, Ulrik will rush to square AG63, and cast a cloud of daggers on A1 & use an action point to cast another cloud of daggers on A2.


[sblock=OOC]
Init (+5): 25 (booya! ;-)
Current HP: 14/22 (13 damage from archer 1, heal 5 from action surge)
Surges Remaining: 6
Surges Value: 5

Minor Action: none
Move Action: move 6 squares forward to AG63
Standard Action: Attack archer 1 : 3 auto damage if Ulrik acts before ennemy 1d20+4=21 vs. ref. Damage 1d6+4=8


Spend Action Point to: Attack archer 2 : 3 auto damage if Ulrik acts before ennemy 1d20+4= 8 vs. ref. Damage 1d6+4=8.

Immediate Action: Interrupt. If hit by any attack this round, Ulrik will use his staff of defense encounter power (+1 to defesenses)[/sblock]

Leaping from the woods, Arjhan moves quickly out and around his foe, circling behind. His dagger plunges into the archer dropping or stunning him.

[sblock=ooc]alrighty, I can move around to flanking for the double team. If A1 is dead at my init, apply the same rolls to A2 with a basic ranged attack (atk 24, dmg 4).

Init: 10
Hit Points: 12/25 ~ bloodied
Surges Remaining: 7/7
Action Points: 0/1

Move: to AD56
Standard: stunning attack on A1 (1d20+7=24, 1d4+3=4, 2d6+3=10)

Moving nearby Erevan, Iados launches a curse on the archer near the warlord while also blasting the archer he had been attaching with a blast of eldritch power.

Both Archer 1 and 2 are under curses from Iados now.

Erevan ducks and feints at the archer's legs. He quickly stands doing a vertical slash at the archer's torso. Iados seeing the brave warlord fighting even though he was barely standing takes inspiration to bolster himself.

[sblock=Actions]
Move: Unused but see below*
Standard: Warlord's favor vs A1. 20 to hit 9 damage and Iados gains +5 to attacks until the end of my next turn.
Minor: Unused

*If A1 is dead, I'll move to AJ54.

Insight Checks

Erevan wipes the blood off his blade on the cloak of one of the archers. He begins searching the bodies of the cultists, looking for some clue to why they would come back to the area.

Please note that both A1 and A2 get 3 points of additional damage (Ulrik's wis mod) because they started their round in the cloud. If A2 is a minion he's dead.
