Game Update #282 in sequence (file #475)
----------------------------------------------------------------
Admin notes: Grr..typoes..spelling errors. I noticed a few
after I posted it. Oh well. Sometimes I get tired and do
the updates near bedtime. But at least the meaning is there :)
----------------------------update-------------------------------
[Recap] - None
[New Stuff - Current Situation]
From Jordi: [Re: Actions]
This is what Jordi will try to do:
Move silently, trying to bypass the guards, and try to
reach I28-I29, so the guards will be trapped between
Jordi and the party. Two options then:
-If there is plenty of time, try to discover what lies
round the corner; then, return to backstab the last guard.
-If there isn't plenty of time, backstab the last guard.
"Last guard" stands for the western guard. Jordi's
objective is to avoid that someone can escape and raise
the alarm to the rest of the complex.
I assume that once combat begins, Jordi will left Xian,
and Jordi will be visible. However, the first guard
Jordi attacks will be ambushed (and probably will
die/sustain a grievous wound). The idea is to resist
while the rest of the group kills the rest of the guards,
and Xian covers Jordi's back.
GM: Ack. If it goes to plan :) (Evil grin)
From Z'leyra: [Re: Actions]
Clearly saying the password 'Stockade', Z'leyra joins
those past the ward. With shield and axe she is ready
to fight and plans to doubleteam Farseeker's or other's
opponents, preferably on the flank or rear. [She knows
that she is not a fighter of legendary quality, just
slightly better than your average guard. So she will do
what she can to improve the odds.]
GM: Ack.
---------------------------Actions---------------------------
Time: Estimated 7:07am-7:22am - Morning Day 22
[Level 6]
[Room M]
[Thig gathers figures there is nothing else of importance
here. He decides to go search the others. But he knows
he'll miss the fun on the upper level so starts to fly
toward the stairs but it'll take him a while.]
[South-East Hallway]
[A lone figure moves sliently among the darkness and
stays alert..then moves toward the stairs going up
to level 7 when no one is in sight..]
[Level 7]
Aren: "If that guard is right at the door how will you get
by him?"
Xian: "Good question. We'll play it as it goes. We'll
both move fast down the hall. When you hear a fight or
a yell start come out and do your thing. Jordi, let's
move..."
Turn 0: Phase 0 [Initial setup]
[Xian opens the door quietly and peers out. The guard has
moved! The door slightly creaks. Murmurs of talk can be
heard down the hall. Seems the guards are talking among
themselves. Xian and Jordi quietly slip out into the
hall and stare down the hall. The guard right by the hall
is now only 5 feet away looking west. Xian and Jordi
quietly walk down the hall slowly. They pass the first
guard. Luckilly the hall is 20 feet wide so its
easy to hug the wall and avoid them.]
Turn 0: Phase 1
[Xian and Jordi pass another guard who are collected
together in a group of 3. They hear them talking
in climan...]
Guard: "...the sacriface is soon?"
Guard: "Yes some barbarian dope."
[Xian and Jordi end the phase in the middle o the 3 at
least side by side of the guards.]
Turn 0: Phase 2
[Xian and Jordi leave the group and head to the west most
guard. As they walk they notice the guard shuffle this
way slightly. The guard looks over to the west to
see if anyone is there or nearby. Maybe expecting
someone? Or hoping their talking won't be caught? As
the two move Jordi notices for the first time there are
unlit torches on the walls. There are lit torches
about every 10 feet on each side of the wall that covers
a good 10 feet area in light. But these are not lit
and stand near the guard about 10 feet in front of them
and near the guard. On both side of the wall. Jordi
tries to sense magic. But the stench of evil magic seems
to overwhelm his senses in this high place. Also being
so close to Xian and the active spell doesn't help. But
as soon as Jordi nears closer he does sense magic. He
halts the movement and stops Xian who understands and
stops. Jordi concentrates on the torches which now he
can see better. Seems on top is a green strip around the
top base of the torch stand. The magic is weak. Good.
Maybe its not offensive. Jordi dare not speak even a
whisper or he'll be heard by the guards. Jordi looks
back to see the guards still talking. Unsure of what
to do he turns his head just in time to notice the unlit
torches light up. But instead oa a firey red/yellow
flame its a pure greenish hue flame. Pretty. That's
all? Xian sees the torches now as well. But as both
decide what to do they hear..]
Guard: "Intruders!" [from behind them]
[Jordi looks back then as his head sees where Xian should
be he sees Xian in a greenish hue haze! Jordi looks down
to himself and sees the same thing. He silently curses
and knows its some anti-invisiblity magic. Now its a
pure fight. Xian releases Jordi and grabs from the
other hand his Arbalest in both hands. Jordi draws
up his sword and charges straight for the west guard.]
[Phase 3/4 not done since had to do a setup]
Turn 1: Phase 1 [Combat begins]
[Farseeker hears the yell and charges out the door first.
Without knowing the layout of guards he charges the first
he sees with his great sword leveled. Unfournately its
the guard that was near the door. Before the guard
knows it the sword plunges through the back of the guard
and halfway through him. Doing 10 points of damage the
guards falls to the ground. Unconscious but surely with
that would will die..His bow and sword fall to the ground.]
[Triest comes out next with heavy crossbow in hand. He
takes up the east wall and hugs it to his back and aims
for any targets but especially targets that may reinforce
the others..]
[Neva and Caladan come out next with Bow and composite bow
ready. They join Triest against the wall and ready for
backing up the warriors.]
[Wi charges through the door with sword in hand and charges
the group of three but doesn't reach there.]
[Chion holds the door open for the others and stands there.]
GM: Need actions :)
[Kasha and Cholan charge forward into the fray but don't
reach targets this phase.]
[Z'leyra comes out with shield and axe ready and joins behind
Kasha and Cholan.]
[Jordi charges forward to the west guard with sword in hand
and thrusts it at the guard. But in the distraction of
the hue and other things he misses the guard by inches.]
[Suresh hurries out and joins behind Z'leyra.]
[Guard #1 with Sling in belt, Mace in hand and wearing
Leather swings mace at Jordi and hits squarely on his
side but the elven scale mail protects the full damage.
This angers Jordi since this must be the first time he
has been hit in days...]
[Guard #3 with throwing daggers in belt, sword and wearing
leather sees the mass of enemy. He chooses a target
at random (d6-6 targets) and charges Cholan with sword.
He swings and hits but Cholan's quilted and ring armor
[Amin, Dex and Aren charge out and get to th esouth side
of the hallway but no targets this phase.]
protects the full strike.]
[Guard #2 charges Diplomat Amin and does a major wound with
the sword on his left arm doing 5 points of damage. Amin
yelps in pain.]
[Xian moves forward behind the guard and covers the way to
the west hallway area with his arbalest. Xian is stil
in his green hue but visible as well as Jordi.]
[Guard #4 charges with Tulwar and wearing leather straight
for Z'leyra. He thrusts the tulwar but it slips between
Kasha and Z'leyra and misses entirely.]
[Meanwhile outside in the stairs hallway..]
[Ris sees a lone figure approach and raises his sword...to
his surprise he sees Unali walking this way..]
Ris: "how?"
[Unali shakes her head and says no time and asks where
the others are..Ris quickly explains and gives her
the password to move on.]
[Ten seconds pass...]

I45 Guard Bow, Sword, Leather. Bow on shoulder and Sword

Jordi sees the guard as Xian did. Only leather for a guard
this high? When level 5 had some in chain and plate? Odd.

Wanted to just do a phase this round. Will do 2 friday. So
actions let me know. Clearly this is a victory since the
enemy is outnumbered 3 or 4 to 1. So it will be obvious.
Or will it?
The larger map is not updated position wise. It will at
the end of the combat. For now use the zoom in map.
Chion I forgot to do the healing. I just did but the first
spell failed. Do you want to retry? No one has offered
a regeneration spell. I can do this pre-active before the
combat begins so it won't be a problem.
If you guys haven't noticed there are 3 doors in the hallway.
