The Old School: AD&D 1e

[PolterGhost]

ooc: yes that is correct.

ooc: iirc, you get one attack during your attack segment and one attack at the end of this round of attacks. Nitpicky, but it makes a slight difference on how things go.

If I can draw my weapon and perform an action, assume my action is to stand still and parry after drawing my sword.

 

[Thondor]

Amirad drops the torch, and moves calmly to engage the two undead with sword and axe.

[sblock=OOC]
Assuming he can engage both . . . or just the closest
Zombies tend not to be particularly surprising (they do automatically move last in initiative as well.)
As I don't feel like charging, moving to engage means no attacks for anyone in the engagement this roung.

[InVinoVeritas]

OOC: Hey, shouldn't you roll for surprise?

OOC: As you wish. No surprise, and no need for initiative as zombies always attack last.

Turthain fires an arrow at a zombie, and it flies through the air and hits!

Amirad draws his weapon and closes with the undead, while Austin find a convenient hole in the wall (of which there are many) and does likewise. Maruial holds back, weapon at the ready.

OOC: Lidia? Zhantain? Sgt. Stubbs? I'll give them a day, it was a holiday weekend.

 

[Deuce Traveler]

The Sarge yells at the sight of the walking dead and moves forward to keep his shield between them and the less defended members of the team. As he comes into melee range, he swings his blade at the nearest of the undead.

OOC: DM, please roll for me. I am updating a new computer and haven't moved all my links with all my PCs over yet.

 

[ghostcat]

Being near the back of the party, plus the fact that she is not a fighter, there is not much that Lidia can do at the moment. Anyway, the others should be able to handle a couple zombie without any problems.

Lidia readies her club and holds the light up high thus making sure that the fighters have sufficient illumination.

[InVinoVeritas]

OOC: Blarg, what a week.

The sarge joins in formation with Austin and Amirad, while Lidia stands with Turthain and Maurial.

The two zombies close ranks. With shields at the ready, the clumsy approach is quickly stopped. Turthain's second arrow misses.

(No attacks this round because of the simple move to engage.)

Zhantain, having traveled silently with the party so far, suddenly lets out an anguished cry and falls to the ground, convulsing!

 

[Thondor]

Amirad casts a concerned look towards Zhantain but being engaged, resolves to dispatch the zombies with all haste and then see if he can aid his companion.
He attacks the vile undead with sword and axe. He stikes several gashes with his axe into one of the creatures that would normally have felled a man, but the creature merely presses in closer.

[Rhun]

Turthain wastes no time pulling arrows from his quiver as he continues to fire on the walking dead.


OOC: Longbow (ROF: 2), DEX 16 (+1 ranged to-hit) - So the "to-hit" rolls attached should actually be a 13 and a 20, since I forgot to add the +1

 

[ghostcat]

Lidia was torn. On the one hand the others needed the light she was holding, on the other she wanted to help Zhantain. Finally deciding that Zhantain would just have to wait, she adjusts the position of light to better illuminate the fight.

 

[Scott DeWar]

Austin swings his mace in a mighty over hand move!
