Watch is reset, and the PCs bed down for the remainder of the night- which proves to be uninterrupted.And the PCs are loving this by the way, I think a large part of it is the floor plans, winding passages and rocky chambers that look just like they're supposed to, only 2D of course. The monsters they've fought are also the kind of mongrels they expect, that's not the word, they suspect they'd find in a place like this- it seems eerily real. Before the fight commenced all the players were 'shushed' into silence by Winstanley (Paul), and they did- they all went silent, so I did the sound effects (sort of)- a yapping laughter- short and only vaguely laughter like, such are my capabilities.Iain (Grey) immediately (actually after I'd had two goes at it) said- 'Hyena', so I'm not that bad at animal/beast noises. A good narrative also helps, I've been laying it on thick with the spookiness of the Labyrinth, dice rolls- making pretend notes, that kind of thing. They're a little on edge...Which is great.Stats: Another massacre, PCs connection rate 85.19% (23 from 27 attacks), the bad guys 57.14% (4 from 7 attacks)- the PCs made just short of four times as many attacks as the bad guys, and hit nearly six times more. The PCs did 297 HP damage and took 25 back, in two rounds- although Action Points got spent; that's an average of 148.5 damage/Turn for the PCs and 12.5 damage/Turn for the monsters.As I say, a massacre.Lowest individual connection rate was Grey 77.78% (7 from 9), highest Dirty & Winstanley 100% (both 3 from 3).That's improved all of the PCs overall connection rate a little, which leads us nicely to-Combined Stats: Just a glimpse at where everyone is at, after five encounters played at Level 4-Average Level of Encounter: 5 (Level +1)Actual Encounters Played: 3 (Level -1) x1, 4 (Level +0) x2, 5 (Level +1) x1 & 9 (Level +5) x1.Average Encounter length: 5.2 Turns or 54.8 minutes (54 minutes & 48 seconds).Individual PC Attacks (minimum 5 attacks made)-22.22% Kaspard Beacon of Hope36.36% Kaspard Healing Strike37.5% Phrenic Wolf Pack Tactics42.86% Dirty Crushing Blow44% Dirty AoO Maul46.67% Kaspard Hand of Radiance50% Dirty Spinning Strike& Phrenic Steel Monsoon54.55% Dirty Cleave57.14% Dirty Brute Strike& Kaspard Lance of Faith57.89% Phrenic Scorching Burst58.33& Phrenic Charge Longsword58.82% Grey Burning Hands61.11% Dirty Reaping Strike61.76% Phrenic Viper's Strike62% Grey Magic Missile63.64% Grey Ray of Frost64.52% Grey Fire Shroud65.71% Kaspard Sacred Flame66.67% Dirty Charge Maul& Kaspard Blazing Starfall& Phrenic Leaf on the Wind& Phrenic Lead the Attack70.59% Grey Scorching Burst71.43% Kaspard Daunting Light& Phrenic AoO Longsword72% Kaspard Turn Undead74.04% Winstanley Sly Flourish81.25% Winstanley Positioning Strike83.33% Winstanley Trick Strike 93.33% Winstanley Deft StrikeSame table with minimum of 10 attacks made-36.36% Kaspard Healing Strike44% Dirty AoO Maul46.67% Kaspard Hand of Radiance50% Dirty Spinning Strike54.55% Dirty Cleave57.14% Dirty Brute Strike& Kaspard Lance of Faith57.89% Phrenic Scorching Burst58.33& Phrenic Charge Longsword58.82% Grey Burning Hands61.11% Dirty Reaping Strike61.76% Phrenic Viper's Strike62% Grey Magic Missile63.64% Grey Ray of Frost64.52% Grey Fire Shroud65.71% Kaspard Sacred Flame66.67% Dirty Charge Maul& Phrenic Leaf on the Wind70.59% Grey Scorching Burst72% Kaspard Turn Undead74.04% Winstanley Sly Flourish81.25% Winstanley Positioning Strike93.33% Winstanley Deft StrikeSame table with minimum 25 attacks made-44% Dirty AoO Maul54.55% Dirty Cleave57.89% Phrenic Scorching Burst58.82% Grey Burning Hands61.11% Dirty Reaping Strike61.76% Phrenic Viper's Strike62% Grey Magic Missile64.52% Grey Fire Shroud65.71% Kaspard Sacred Flame66.67% Dirty Charge Maul70.59% Grey Scorching Burst72% Kaspard Turn Undead74.04% Winstanley Sly FlourishSame table with minimum 50 attacks made-58.82% Grey Burning Hands62% Grey Magic Missile65.71% Kaspard Sacred Flame70.59% Grey Scorching Burst74.04% Winstanley Sly FlourishSame table with minimum 100 attacks made-70.59% Grey Scorching Burst74.04% Winstanley Sly FlourishThat's some big hitting, and consistent.I'll do the big Stat thing when the players have completed all encounters as Level 4 and are Leveling up.</blockquote>
