One of his watchmen sets up a box for him to stand on. He mounts it spryly for a man of his age. Though his uniform is torn and his armour dented, Captain Schiller still commands the respect of the crowd. He only needs to motion once before the crowd quiets down.“People of Untergard” he begins, “this is a glorious day. I have received a letter from Count Todbringer of Middenheim. The old wolf still lives and the city of Middenheim also stands strong!”The crowd cheers and once again Schiller must motion for silence.“Count Todbringer sends his thanks to all of Untergard for the part we played in hampering the invaders. He said, and I quote, ‘the battle for the Untergard Bridge will go down as one the most glorious battles in Middenland’s history.’ Be proud, people of Untergard, for our sacrifices have not been in vain!”When the cheers die down, Schiller continues. “To show his gratitude for our valour, the Count has sent us a token of his appreciation.” The captain reaches into a bag and pulls out a loaf of bread and a bottle of wine. “We were honoured to receive thirty loaves of bread and a dozen bottles of wine, straight from Middenheim.”The crowd goes wild at the sight of the Count’s largesse, hungry eyes fixed on the fresh bread in the Captain’s hands. They begin to chant, “Long live the Count! Long live the Count!” Schiller holds bread and wine high in the air as the hardened survivors of Untergard shout themselves hoarse.Suddenly, there is a loud crack and the bottle shatters, showering Schiller and the bread with glass and wine. Pandemonium erupts as the crowd scatters in panic.None of you can determine where the shot originated from, however a few moments after the shot you see three hideous Mutants coming across the bride. One has bestial legs, the second has a pig-like snout, and the only has one-eye and leathery skin. As they get closer, you can see the hatred that burns in their eyes.End of <a href="http://www.jeremiahbullfrog.com/images/TtD/Combat_Round_1.jpg" target="_blank">Combat Round 1</a> (36 KB jpg image)(OOC: Though the mutants are already coming across the bridge it will take each of you one round to get to the bridge. In your next post, let me know your starting position for round 3. You can start in any A or B square. Also roll for initiative and include with your next post. M1 is the mutant with bestial legs, M2 is the mutant with the pig-like snout, and M3 is the mutant with one-eye and leathery skin. Each mutant is carrying a crude wooden club.)</blockquote>
