Message: <blockquote data-quote="Uriel" data-source="post: 853207" data-attributes="member: 8222">Minutes after the Band sets off, the sound of screams and the baying of hounds can be heard behind you.It would seem that the Elves have found your 'Tollkeeper' rearguard.The sounds end all too quick, although you are sure that the volunteers took out at least a few of the accursed Elves.twenty minutes of hard running later, the sounds of pursuit have receded, at least for now.Ahead, where the forest opens up a bit, the Worg riders see a clearing. The Rider farthest right <in front of #5> stands in his saddle and yells 'Ambush!'  as arrows fly from the woods thck as summer mosquitos.That rider is taken down in a hail of arrows, along with his Worg.The Leftmost Worg Rider and his mount also goes down, feathered by arrows.All around you the Forest erupts with movement.The Orcs snarl and charge something on the left, hurling javalins as they go. the Hobgoblin Squads <3 and 4> back towards Captain Varn's position,swords out.The other two Hobgoblin Squads ready their bows, moving back slightly towards the center.The Goblins at the rear cry out as they are feathered with arrows, more than half of their number going down.The attackers seem to be coming at you from the  Northwest,West and South.Bargo notices nothing, but Durgo hears something really BIG moving fast from behind you, and he can see that something large is coming through the forest from your rear.The sound of breaking saplings and the shifting of the canopy are the tell-tale signs that he recognizes.Midnight fang has a full action on the suprise round, she sees camoflouge elves advancing at the Orcs to her flank, perhaps 60' away. She has line of sight, though the orcs are charging the Elves. There are at least 20 of them.Valreck sees elves ahead of the band, hiding in cover, behind trees, boulders etc...There are at least a dozen, probably twice that number.Wekerak knows that there are archers ahead, though he can't mae out their positions.Kurg sees the Elves that Midnight fang saw as well.He has LoS to at least 1 or 2 if he wishes some spell.Suprise Round:Midnight Fang: Full ActionKurg ,Durgo and Valreck : Partial Actions.Neither Bargo nor Wekerak can yet see a foe, and are thus suprised by the situation.The Ambushers have already acted on their suprise round.Post Suprise actions, then I shall roll initiative and we can get the slaughter under way.</blockquote>
