Round 2
Since Venus hasn't been around for awhile, I will NPC her very passively. She's such a character; I don't know that I could NPC her well, and in general, I don't like NPCing at all. Venus, feel free to involve her when you return.
Irene dodges back to avoid the goblin archers, taking cover behind a rock. Somac moves back to defend the wizards. Jogging back, he sees two goblins perched on the top of the boulder. They are armed with shortbows. Somac raises his bow. It's a tough shot, and the barbarian is thankful for Nurlan's inspirational song as he puts an arrow into one's chest, though its leather armor seemed to protect it somewhat. (3 pts dmg)
Charlyn casts his spell and prepares for battle. (Bless cast, duration could exceed Nurlan's song, if nothing else...)
Nurlan reloads his heavy crossbow.
Jezibel ducks her head down and is now competely concealed by the canoe. (Tenebryn can restate his action.)
Ashnar dashes forward, gaining cover behind the catapault. (I hadn't moved Ashnar up last round b/c no one else in the group did, and he stated he would stay with the group.)
Rinaldo shoots again, this time imbedding his bolt in the ogre's thigh (6 pts dmg)
Tor remains on guard in front of the party (except Ashnar).
The ogre glances down at where Jezibel disapeared, then takes a step towards the canoe, as he begins reloading his massive crossbow. The two goblins on the boulder aim their arrows at Somac, now. Somac manages to jerk himself aside, but one arrow strikes a glancing blow. (2 pts) The wounded goblin by the canoe (who's not on the map!) fires an arrow ineffectively at the party.
Another figure appears, that of a hobgoblin partially concealed behind the hut on the party's left. It fires off an arrow which sails high of the party's heads.
