-- Round 3 (cont) --
Dunathar, hoping his position behind the tents from Hobgoblin 1 gave him cover, and feeling he’s exposed moves stealthily to a spot between the two center tents. As he throws his dagger, the hobgoblin sees it coming. It’s not a sneak attack, but by the gods, what a great throw! (It’s a super critical! – two natural 20’s, with maximum damage!) Dunathar’s dagger sinks into Hobgoblin 1, but he’s still going strong.
Zanock rides up to the northern archers, positioning himself next to Hobgoblins 9 and 10. He swings his falchion at Hobgoblin 9, but misses.
Bert casts Entropic Shield and calls out to Braveheart to come.
Hobgoblin 1 rides into the darkness again and fires one arrow, hitting Guard 2. The arrow bursts in a small ball of white fire! The guard stays in his saddle, and looks ok. Hobgoblin 1 reaches into his pouch and grabs something
Hobgoblins 2, 3, 4 and 5 are down.
Hobgoblin 6 throws a javelin at Guard 2. He hits. Guard 2 (Mirik) is still standing in his saddle.
Hobgoblin 7 runs off into the darkness again
Hobgoblin 8 is down
Hobgoblin 13 rides away and fires an arrow at Guard 5, missing. He reaches into his pouch and grabs something.
Hobgoblin 14 is down
Hobgoblin 15 moves into the circle and throws a javelin at Guard 2. It hits
Hobgoblin 16 is down
Hobgoblin 17 stabs the downed Driver 6
Hobgoblin 18 slashes Driver 7 with its longsword. Driver 7 goes down, only barely conscious.
Hobgoblin 19 moves into the circle and throws a javelin at Guard 2. It hits! He falls from his horse, hitting the ground hard. Mirik is down!
Hobgoblin 20 is down.
Braveheart, happy as a clam, runs over to Bert.
The ogres continue their advance. Their torches dip down as they enter the stream bed, but it doesn’t slow them down at all. They are now 160 feet away. The other two worg riders have disappeared behind some trees.
Driver 1 shoots his crossbow at Ogre 3. He misses.
Driver 2 and 4 shoot their crossbows at Ogre 3. They miss.
You presume Driver 6 is dead
Driver 8 and 10 shoot their crossbows at Ogre 3. Both hit. Ogre 3 looks hurt.
Rowyn’s Inspire Courage takes effect. She holds her torch high and commands Sabala to attack!
Sabala attacks Hobgoblin 1’s worg (Worg 1), biting it. Rowyn grips her sword, ready to attack anything that comes within range. OOC I figure you can sing/talk about anything you want during Inspire Courage.
Guard 1 (Rekar) dismounts and feeds a potion into Guard 2’s mouth
Guard 2 (Mirik) barely regains consciousness
Guard 3 grabs a lance and moves into the caravan circle, unable to make any attacks this round.
With all the torchlight around, you see Mavdeno and Thevin peeking out of their tents. Perhaps they heard Dunathar sneaking around next to them.
-- Round 4 --
Etherial rides into the caravan circle, away from the ogres. He directs his horse to attack Hobgoblin 6. One of its hooves connect solidly, and Hobgoblin 6 goes down!
Glendrake peeks out briefly, but stays inside his tent
Darien rides around, searching for hobgoblins outside of the circle, then sets up between two wagons, waiting for the ogres. “Ogres approaching!”
The northern archers scatter.
Hobgoblin 9 runs off into the darkness.
Hobgoblins 10, 11 and 12 run into the light, each grabbing one of the tossed torches. Looks like they’ll be stuffing them in their pouches soon.
Hobgoblins 21 and 22 advance and throw their javelins at Guard 5. Both miss
Hobgoblins 23 and 24 advance into the caravan circle, throwing their javelins at Alan and Dunathar. A javelin hits Alan, but it’s just a glancing blow. Dunathar sidesteps his javelin.
Guard 4 rides south, sees Hobgoblin 13, and attacks. One hoof hits.
Guard 5 rides south and attacks Hobgoblin 22. One hoof and his lance hits. Hobgoblin 22 falls.
Guard 6 rides around, searching for hobgoblins outside of the circle, then sets up between two wagons, waiting for the ogres.
Alan sees the hint of Hobgoblin 15 in the shadows in front of him. He drops his crossbow, and swinging his bastard sword in two hands, steps forward to attack Hobgoblin 15. He misses.
Drivers 3 and 5 fire their crossbows at Ogre 3. Driver 5 hits. Ogre 3 is still up.
Driver 7 shouts “Help!” and makes a last desperate swing before losing consciousness. The swing misses wide.
Driver 9 sees Hobgoblin 18 standing over Driver 7’s body, and turns to fire a bolt at the hobgoblin, but misses.
Mirena fires point blank at Hobgoblin 12 and hits it. With the extra damage from Rowyn’s song, it falls, losing consciousness.
