Boat Ride

The boats show no response to Rook's challenge and continue to approach.

OOC: Still waiting for actions from Finn and Morwyn or at least a "I'm just enjoying the ride post."
 

Rook

OK, there are definitely hostiles about -- I've been attacked once already. I'm not taking chances on them getting in the first swing.

Rook will fire at the exposed head (assuming that's what it is).

Rook rolls 1d20+8, getting [18,8] = (26) To Hit

Rook rolls 1d6+2, getting [2,2] = (4) Damage

Rook rolls 1d100, getting [97] = (97) Miss Chance

OOC:

I rolled a miss chance in case you were counting the target as concealed rather than under cover. I'm assuming that since there's a 20% miss chance and I rolled well over that I hit him -- if my To Hit roll was good enough, of course.
 

Finn Hunter

For the DM [sblock] Ok, Scott, here's what Finn is doing. From one pouch on his belt, he is pulling our a small bag containing a double charge of gunpowder. He is going to throw this at the boat he sees coming toward them. He then will pull out another bag of powder and throw it right after the other. He will use Far Hand to guide both bags to land next to the mast of the boat. This should be enough powder to set off a spontaneous reaction and blow the mast and hopefully a good portion of the bottom of the boat out of the water. I'll leave it to you to describe the effect on the boat. [/sblock]

Following Rook's lead, Finn pulls two bags from his belt and throws them at the other oncoming boat. They seem to impact on the same spot at the base of the mast.
 

Morwyn

Judging from your earlier comment that we're attired in our "finest", I'll take off my silk shirt, pick up my axe, and dive into the water.

OOC: What would be the modifiers if I choose to attack one of the boats directly, rather than someone in the boat?
 

OOC: I didn't ask for initiative so we'll assume you are in the order of your posts--Rook, Finn, Morwyn.

The arrow seems to strike the boatman, but the boat keeps coming. As Morwyn gracefully strikes the water a resounding boom comes from the other boat.

OOC: For Finn only [sblock]Roll 3d6 for damage.[/sblock]

OOC: Morwyn can attack the boat at AC10. It will have some hardness and hit points, but I'll have to figure out how much. Go ahead and make your attack and damage rolls. Only a standard action this round.

OOC: Next player to post can roll initiative to see if you all attack before or after the bad guys on successive rounds. We'll keep the established order and just put the enemy in before or after.
 

Rook

Rook rolls 1d20+7, getting [9,7] = (16) for Initiative.

Rook will put DúbhAnáil away and take out DúbhRásúr and his Main Gauche, and brace for impact.

I've got a bad feeling about this . . . I hope those boats aren't rigged with explosives.
 



Aboard the Rumpled Bedsheet

Radoon strikes the creature successfully once more. Again it recoils slightly, but then rushes forward to continue the attack (1d20+4=9). The wily sailor once more avoids the shadowy attack. Terry swings (1d20+6=17, 1d100=8, 1d4+3=7) his dagger once more and seems to land an effective blow on the creature. Marienna tries to bring her sword into play, but is hampered by the press of sailors who continue to attack with no success.

OOC: Radoon is up again.
