S1: The Strange Case of Aif Jenkins' Farm (E13 judge) - Concluded

OOC: If need be, I'll take Eusebius if it's needed. I can do combat for him pretty easily. And no extra load on El Jefe.

Eusebius:
Eusebius twirls his chian as he looks at the orcs to the north, dairing them to approach.

OOC: Eusebius will cast Bull's strength on himself, making him +4 to hit, 2d6+5 dmg with the spiked chain. He'll make any attacks of oppertunity presented to him (He can make up to 3, and I see 3 orcs to his north :)
 

Thanks, Bront, for taking over Eusebius. Eusebius with bulls strength takes himi to a STR of 17. Using his +1 weapon two handed then, gives him +3(BAB)+3(str)+1(magic)-4(non-proficient): +3 2d4+5 for his attack. Am I missing something?) I'm NPCing Boog this round, perhaps, just continuing the last action he proposed. Dismounts don't require a ride check, so I'll assume Juliana dismounts just find and strikes the only orc w/in range - the one binded by Beamer last turn.

Round 2 (con't)
Juliana dismounts and lashes out at the closest orc (O9) with her guisarme. The blinded creature is easily hit and cut down.

Round 3
Eusebius casts Bulls Strength on himself.

Boog tries to climb into the window to get at the orc archer, but has trouble getting purchase with his feet. He doesn't make any progress yet. (fails DC 10 climb check)

Beamer evades the dog and casts his glitterdust at the charging orcs, catching 4 within the sparking cloud. Three immediately begin stumbling blindly. (orcs in red are blind)

Banion stays mounted on his fighting horse, regaining his powerful mindblade.

One war dog sinks his teeth into Banion's horse (6 pts dmg). The horse rears and shakes it off, catching it with a powerful kick (7 pts dmg). (Banion must continue to make ride checks DC 5 to stay in his saddle while his horse fights this dog. He succeeds in round 3)

The other dog still is rushing madly at Beamer. The halfling, with the assistance of his magic armor, manages to avoid its fangs for another round.

The orcs charging from the north close with Eusebius. Before they can use their powerful axes, though, they must penetrate his whirling chains. One orc head is ripped off by the powerful cleric, but the other two manage to close to within striking range. Both connect with their axes, one with a very solid hit, reeling Hyrag's favorite (20 pts dmg total).

The two orcs from the West charge Juliana. She also is able to get her guisarme around but can't hit the charging orc before they're on her. Neither axe penetrates her sturdy armor.

The orc in the window fires point blank into Boog as he tries to climb in the window, but his arrow thumps into the wall.

The two orcs who emerged from the farmhouse which aren't dead or blind move to attack Juliana as well. One hits, doing some damage even through her armor (9 pts, reduced to 6)

Juliana up in round 3, then everyone else in round 4

Beamer continues his slow retreat using the distance gained to launch another spell.

OOC:
Magic missle on any injured opponent, or one of the orcs fighting Father E if there isn't injured enemies.
2d4+2=7
Note that Beamer is not wielding a melee weapon so he can't help give Banion a flanking bonus.
Spells remaining:
0th: 6, 1st: 4, 2nd: 2
Mage armor still in effect: AC 19
Bolts fired: 1

ooc: That might or might not effect the critical confirmation, we'll have to wait and see.
 

[sblock=OOC]
OK, I'm back on deck, and I've sorted out the access problem.

Thanks for NPCing Eusebius for me.

Manz, I think his attack with chain would be at +4. You didn't include the effects of the Aid spell in your calculations. So, does that mean he hits either of the others?
[/sblock]
Eusebius curses as the blades bite deep, then launches into a series of flying attacks against the orcs he faces.

[sblock=OOC]
Flurry of blows +6/+6 1d6+3/1d6+3

He does not have to drop his chain to do this.

Attack O1 first, then, if it drops, attack O3.

AC 16; AC 17 (including Dodge) against O3.

HP 23/37

The orc in the window fires point blank into Boog as he tries to climb in the window, but his arrow thumps into the wall.
Boog muttered a soft curse as he slipped from the window, and tried to heave his bulk inside the room once again. He seemed oblivious to the fact that his opposite was quite unsettled, perhaps because of the stange humming and the glistening sheen that was emanating from Boog's body.

Again, Boog tried to clamber into the window, and this time he was successful. His dagger scratched and marred the windowframe as he entered the room. No matter. If the rightful owner of the house was still alive after all this was over, fixing the windowsill would be the least of his worries.

Boog advanced on the archer, dagger in hand. "Let's see if he fights hand-to-hand well enough to wound me", Boog thought to no one in particular.[sblock=OoC: ]DC10 climb check is d20+1(for strength bonus)=13, success.[/sblock]
 


OK. We can say Banion's horse is on full defense. Also, yes, Eusebius did hit on another of his AoOs, the more important one. So I'm giving him back 14 hps for having struck down O1 before it struck him.

Round 3 (con't)
Juliana (NPCed) steps back and swings her guisarm at one of her attackers, spilling its guts on the grass.

Round 4
Eusebius quickly disapatches his last opponent.

Boog climbs in through the window.

Beamer retreats further from the dog, and strikes down one of Juliana's opponets with his magic missiles. (O12).

Banion wheels his horse and stabs the dog attacking Beamer, seriously injuring it. (critical successful)

The wounded dog attacking Beamer flees before superior oponents. The other one continues to snap at the horses heels, ineffectually.

Two orcs step inside Juliana's range and swing their great axes at the warrior. These are the only two functional orcs outside of the house. There are four more outside staggering blindly about.

Inside the house, Boog finds himself in the kitchen. The orc backs a little further away and sends another arrow into the unarmored human. This one hits, a minor wound on the arm (4 pts dmg)

Juliana up in round 4. Everyone else for round 5
