Message: <blockquote data-quote="Ferrix" data-source="post: 1942992" data-attributes="member: 6115">The quiet of waiting is broken.Drawing another yard, Tau unleashes an arrow against the same target.  This time the tip bites deeply into the Huom's chest and the creature staggers for a mere second, a black ichor welling up around the wound, then collapses to the ground, writhing in its last moments.Another glittering swarm of blades swarm out from the surrounding huom, aimed at the drivers and Osric alone on his horse, but their heightened anticipation of battle pays off and few even got close.Nassitch fires at one of the more menacing looking ones, his shot drives true but the creatures trained reflexes turn a dangerous blow into a thin streak of blood along its shoulder.  The creature glares towards the first carriage, a sadistic leer on its face.Throttling the reins and shouting like a mad-man, Uiim snaps his horses into action driving the carriage forward with a jolt.  Log seeing this follows suit, and the second carriage lurches forward as well.  Tau however is not so lucky as his concentration was too divided to effectively snap the horses on the wagon into full motion.Osric fires an arrow at one of the nearer huom, taking it full in the chest it staggers but grips its kyr'drat and makes ready to charge the mounted warrior.Those who did not act either did so out of choice, performed a non-action (yelling, etc.) or did not post anything else.Round 2Three larger huom, one of whom was wounded by Nassitch, shudder with an unforeseen strength and rush forward, closing the distance faster than humanly possible.  One rushing Osric swings its kyr'drat in a long arc, but unable to judge its own speed mistakes the distance and fails to connect.  The slightly wounded one, enraged charges the first carriage, taking the most convenient target, Kromgron, with such surprise that the blade gouges deep into the dwarfs side and he staggers back into Nassitch.  The third rushes Tau, the blade so close it causes his hairs to bristle, and the pause is shattered as the blade cleaves deep into the seat next to him.Actions?Kromgron only [spoiler]9 wound damage, you are fatigued but not stunned[/spoiler]</blockquote>
