Yimayngurr calls down a shot from the tower and lets his spear fly, but both missiles fail to find their targets.

[Iron Sky]

The dead finally breach the center of the palisade, not far from where Eithal and Fredrock stand ready. Eithal charges into the gap to hold it, but elsewhere the palisade will not stand for much longer.

Another of the dead slips and impales itself on the palisade near Kaz, while near Yim, one of the beasts comes hurling out of the woods and clears the palisade in a single leap, claws sinking deep into one of the craftsmen as it lands.

Out of the woods comes another mass of the dead, but this time moving in formation, surrounding a figure in ancient red armor. Ravens swirl around the figure like a tornado and it holds a wicked blade swirling with black energies.

Cale points his sword at it and shouts "he comes to finish the job he started. Take as many of them with you before you die!"

Woodright lowers his crossbow and glances at Livia. "Are we expecting to hold against all that? Didn't someone say something about a ship?"

[sblock=Special rules for this fight]As a minor action, you may let one of the Craftsmen, the Master Mason, or Captain Cale take a standard action. They may take move and minor actions as well each round if you convert additional minor actions to "fuel" them.

As before, if an adjacent craftsman is hit, you may take the damage instead as a free action. Alternatively, if you are hit, you may make an adjacent craftsman take the hit instead.[/sblock]

[sblock=Terrain]*Any terrain with rocks is difficult terrain. You can ignore it by making DC 15 Acrobatics checks to keep your balance as you run across the rocks. Fail the Acrobatics check and you are knocked prone. You can, of course, use Athletics to jump over difficult terrain as always.

*The palisades fill all the squares they are in and will make attacks against anything that tries to climb over them.

[sblock=ooc]I'd like to know, for future reference, how many and what kind of actions it takes

--to signal the ship (if that's possible)
--for one of the people on top of the tower to move to the trapdoor and climb down
--for someone to close the trap door from beneath.

Edit: oh and how high is the top of the tower from the ground?[/sblock]

GM: * Signaling the ship would probably require moving to the top of the tower and waving a sunrod since there's no beacon built. It's probably still signal-able since this tower is built on a promontory that allows a good view of the sea and it hasn't been that long since Cale mentioned it. * Opening or closing doors is a minor action, including trapdoors. * Climbing ladders is automatic, you just move half-speed up a ladder. The tower is 4 levels, each 10' tall, so about 40'. It's near the edge of a cliff that's a about two-hundred feet above the beach at its base.

Eithal shoves one of the foul hulks into the palisades and then falls back, feinting an attack to lure the hideous things in one at a time, "Come ayand gayet it honey!"[sblock=Actions]Free: Mark the RRH's at H18 and H19
Minor: Warden's Tempest
Target: RRH at H19
Effect: Slide RRH into the palisade (hopefully suffering an attack) at I19

Move: Shift to J18
Standard: Thorn Strike
Target: RRH at H18
Attack: 1d20+9=12 vs AC Miss!

An AoE would be reeeeeealy nice right now, but I think I see the big guy at the back. We might want to hold off the big guns until then?[/sblock]

 

[Luinnar]

OOC: Should I destroy the ravens with my encounter power?

 

[Mewness]

Livia shoots another arrow into the nearest swarm of birds, causing them to flutter crazily before falling to the ground. "We didn't signal it," she says shortly. "If anyone has a sunrod, he can put it to good use."

[sblock=ooc]Livia doesn't have any sunrods If any craftsman on the roof has one, she'll order him to climb up and signal the boat. Otherwise she'll order someone to shoot and reload.[/sblock]
[sblock=actions]Standard: grappling spirits on swarm 1 1d20+9=26 1d12+7+3=21 is 10 damage. Swarm 1 is "dead."[/sblock]

 

[H.M.Gimlord]

OOC: *edit* (Sorry Mewness) [MENTION=44459]Luinnar[/MENTION]: Not yet. I guess I just got excited seeing All the bad guys bunched up against the palisades. Let's concentrate our ranged At-Wills on the guys tearing down the palisades. Meanwhile, we can weaken the remaining swarm from a distance. Keep an eye on the map. If some bad guys end up bunched around the swarm, then make the most of your encounter power.

 

[Xeterog]

That's alot of dead walking! Captain, shoot that big one comeing thru the palisade! I'll pick them up as they break thru. You there, keep that longspear ready, the palisade won't hold 'em back much longer."

[sblock=actions]

OOC: My Str is low, so charging is not an option for me. Will continue to ready for when they break thru

note: RRD 4 at I14 is still marked by me (my mark stays until I change it)

Minor: Instruct craftsman 8 (M17) to ready to attack the 1st Rerisen Dead that comes withing reach (2)
Minor: Instruct Captian Cale (O18) to shoot Hulk 6(H18)
Standard: Ready to useBull's Strength on 1st RRD that comes within reach (1) (I will attack after the craftsman uses his readied action, because Bull's Strength will push the RRD back 1 square on a hit.
[sblock=Fredrock]
The 1st attack that hits or misses me gives me 7 DR until the end of my next turn.
