[PbP] Treasure Hunt - Emerald DMing

[Emerald]

Reinert: As you begin to sneak down the slope of the hill (you are coming down behind the goblin line) you see another Orc fall (speared by a goblin) and another Goblin fall (axe blow by the remaining Orc). The goblin archers move to get a better shot at the remaining Orc. You move half way down the slope and are pretty sure you have not been seen or heard.

 

[Capellan]

I stagger from Reinert's slap, and give him a sour look as he heads down the slope.

"I bruise easily, you know."

Then I gingerly crawl (crawl! in the dirt!) into a firing position.

Since the goblins are now in a 4 to 1 superiority, I draw a bead on the healthiest looking one and wait.

 

[Poto Knezer]

Reinert

How far away are the combatants?

 

[Krug]

"We have to make sure none of them escape," says Jarrad. Growing impatient, he crawls to the other side of Reinert. "Four goblins... we could take care of them easily!"

 

[Emerald]

The Orc manages to take out another Goblin. Then the last Orc then falls by the arrows of one of the Goblin archers.

Jarrad: The other archer spots you and fires an arrow at you hitting you for 5 pts of damage.

Reinert: The goblins line is 10 feet away (3), there are also two archers on the far slope (30 feet away).



Combat begins:

Inititive

Jarrad
Reinert
Cattivo
Cid

 

[Krug]

Jarrad charges at the goblin line, shouting and screaming his head off. He will try to lob the head off one of them.

 

[Capellan]

"Nice work ... so much for the element of surprise."

I begin to inspire courage. I also shoot one of the goblin archers.

 

[Creamsteak]

Cid, unconciously watching his own back, moves fowards 30 feet while maintaining full defense. He seems to be less than orderly, still suffering from severe sea-salt-sickness.

 

[Poto Knezer]

Reinert

Reinert will charge the goblin line. He should be able to attack as a charge. He'll swing his club two handed. So he should attack as +2 str +2 charge =+4, & +3 dmg.

 

[Emerald]

Round One:

Jarred: You charge one of the goblins on the line, hitting him for 4 pts. of damage, killing him.

Goblins: The two goblins remaining on the line attack Jarrad, one hits him for 3 pts. of damage, the other misses.

An archer points out Cattivo to the other archer and they both attack him. They both miss.

Reinert: You charge attack the Goblin line and miss.

Cattivo: Your inspire courage will take effect on your inititive next round. You shoot at one of the goblin archers and hit him for 6 pts of damage, killing him.

Cid: You move forward at full defense (clarification: Goblins are 20 feet away, do you want to move through them?)

Summary: There are now three goblins still standing, two line men and one archer. Jarred and Reinert are standing in the ravine at the line, and Cattivo is still in the hills, Cid is in the ravine. Jarred is badly wounded.
