The Enemy Within

[FourMonos]

As soon as the mutant turns, Garold reacts, directing the dwarves toward the beast, "No quick, get down on this side!"

[sblock=Battlefront Shift] I wanted to get one of the dwarves closer to the fight at the start, so please feel free to utilize Battlefront Shift to get you 12 feet closer (1/2 of speed five=25/2 feet, right?) I'll likely go after [/sblock]

[sblock=ooc]Will post tomorrow. Haven't got my 4E books at hand and haven't played 4E enough to act without having to look up rules. [/sblock]

OOC: Gorim will use the battleshift to shift 2 sq closer to the mutant(/undead?).

 

[Dr Simon]

OOC: Padreigh, no problem, this is my first time with 4th Ed.

Hans unleashes a devestating series of blows on the mutant. As the creature is leaking blood anyway it is hard to see how much damage has been done, but the creature staggers stupefied by the onslaught, slashing back at Hans with a remarkably deft strike.

[sblock=OOC]
Rolf the mutant is immobilised, rattled, and bloodied.
As far as I can tell, immobilised doesn't prevent attacks, only movement, so standard melee attack on Hans, hits AC 22 for 7 damage.
[/sblock]

[sblock=ooc]Do you use the posting order for players, or can we post at will, if no enemy is before us?[/sblock]

 

[Dr Simon]

OOC: There is an initiative order, but it can slow things up if we walways wait for the person whose turn it is next - if your actions are unlikely to impinge on anyone elses then posting order is fine. Technically it's Padreigh up next, I think (unless I'm getting my dwarves confused) - see the post with map and picture.

[sblock]Correct. Immobilized = can't move or shift. Rattled = -2 to attack rolls.[/sblock]

 

[Padreigh]

[sblock=ooc]Let's see if I got my rules right. Move action towards the mutant, then Ardent strike as attack[/sblock]

Garogram harrumphs, spits out and then moves towards the mutant, his axe bursting into white light as he swings at the creature.

Gorim Grimmson

Gorim, already on his way, advances to the wretched creature. Knowing that it will be distracted by his brother, he tries a brash attack, but misjudges the distance badly.

[sblock=OOC]

Move: to get there, flanking if possible, but not risking OAs.
Standard: Brash Strike at the Mutant.

He doesn't mark!

Starting combat with a 1. And damage is impossible. 11 is the lowest he can roll... Will go back to IC!

Garold jumps down after the dwarves, nobody as quick as Hans. He draws his sword as he approaches, but he sees the opening after Gorim's swing goes wide.

"Garogram, there! He let down his guard!"

[sblock=actions] Movement: Move behing Garogram, 10 feet from the Mutant.
Minor: Draw Longsword.
Standard: Direct the Strike: grant Garogram a melee basic attack against the mutant. [/sblock]
