You are right, 6 are maybe to few. I say 2 per character (10 total).

I like the tar pit and log traps, But the pits are kind of expensive. How many squares does the log trap cover? We could spend 8 points on four pits on the west side and one point on the log trap on the east side if it covers enough ground. But I'm open to spikes and caltrops as well. Seems like you'd get the most trap area covered by logs and caltrops.

The digging in the muddy ground is work intensive.
The logs would be 3 squares long and roll 1d4+2 squares.

That's true digging in the mud would take a long time. I like using 2 log traps on the east side of the village BD 31-33 and BE 28-30. Then we could put 3 tar pits at L 23-25 with a row of Caltrops in front of and behind them at K 23-25 and M 23-25 to make it harder to get out of the pits. But we could dig more spiked pits instead of tar pits if you were interested in that sort of thing.
What does every one else thing? WD set it up so we have several options, which is awesome, I know I'm kind of stuck on the burning pit idea so my ideas will be alittle bias.

First of all, we should make sure that the gate is repaired and all the holes in the wall are fixed.
Are those ten points after we fixed that or before?
I am very much in favour of the rolling logs. And I'd rather go for spiked pits. Fire traps can be turned against us.
And what about the boiling water? We could use the traps to "channel" the orcs and then drop the water on their heads ...
Edit: Hm, we could also leave one obviously weak spot in our defences to lure the orcs there. It should not be too obvious, of course.

10 was for one work-day, with some of the villagers (Gunter+) not working/ being chased by orcs. Tomorrow there will be more. If you survive the night...

I was thinking we'd just leave the gap to entice the orcs to come from that direction and put the log traps there. I'm not sure if we've repaired the gate or not the map would lead me to believe we haven't. If we haven't repaired the gate we can seal up one side of the wall and leave the other open and just focus our traps there.
Did the baron say how long we had to hold this town wasn't it like 3 weeks?

If your characters want to talk to anyone, write the actual question in the IC thread, please.
I need your decisions before I can jump to the evening/night...
--------
I hope the game is fast-paced enough. Is everyone still here and interested? If you want more talking, just talk in the IC thread. If you want more action... there are enough orcs out there (all encounters and maps are already ready).
