[QUOTE="Ravellion, post: 769519, member: 538"] The first day and night are travelled peacefully on paths through the Amstradan farmland. On the sixth day of Brewfest festival however, around noon, you travel through a forest which would take too long too bypass. It rains heavily, and the ground is soggy. Nonetheless, some people apparently have gone out in this weather as well: you encounter a group of six humanoid shapes which seem to be in waiting. They might even be in ambush. The distance is generally about 130 feet, though they are spread about 50 feet amongst themselves. The initiative order is: Ilan: 21 (Not suprised) Deepwinter 7: 18 (surprised) Hobgoblin 1: 17 Human: 17 Wulf: 16 (surprised ) Goblin: 16 Diactum: 11 (Surprised) Orc: 10 Tristan: 9 (not surprised) Hobgoblin 2: 9 Bugbear: 3 What do you do? Trees abound so straight movement is not possible, missile combat is hindered because of rain, wind and foliage. Please act in initiative order: if you are surprised, you can't do anything first round (which starts now), but in any case, do try to stay in turn. If you want you can post ahead of time, but the situation might have changed between your post and when your action actually happens, so beware. Next up: Ilan. [/QUOTE]
