Encounter 7 v2
« on: December 14, 2010, 11:19:57 PM »
Encounter 6 v2


Note: you get back all of your HP and spell slots.


Setup:
You're searching through the woods for such-and-such, and you find three bedrolls around a smoldering camp-fire, one much larger than the others.  While pilfering through the dirty dishes and belongings, you hear some noise in the woods.  You see three bugbears and an ogre returning from what looks like a hunting trip.  The ogre is carrying a deer, and they all are holding javelins.  The ogre also has a large club on his back and the bugbears have shields and morningstars.


Initiative rolls:
[spoiler]Aepa -> d20 + 3 = 12
Grizz -> d20 + 2 = 20
Ixen -> d20 + 4 = 7
Serias -> d20 + 3 = 13
Thorden -> d20 + 6 = 20


Bugbear 1 -> d20 + 1 = 4
Bugbear 2 -> d20 + 1 = 16
Bugbear 3 -> d20 + 1 = 15
Ogre -> d20 - 1= 0

Tie-breaker:
Grizz -> d20 = 6
Thorden -> d20 = 13[/spoiler]


Modified Initiative:
[spoiler]
Thorden (20)
Grizz (20)
Bugbear 2 (16)
Bugbear 3 (15)
Serias (13)
Aepa (12)
Ixen (7)
Bugbear 1 (4)
Ogre (0)

Feeling Rushed, Thorden moves slowly, quietly as he can, while drawing out his crossbow.

Move action to U-21, draws crossbow in process.
Free action indicates to team he's heading towards the ogre.
Move action tries to stay hidden.
Move Silently: 13
Hide: 10

Grizz decides to try and create a distraction so the enemies focus on him rather than on his allies. He rushes to P13 and speaks to the nearby Bugbears, saying (the rough equivalent) in Goblin, "Well, good day fellows! Is this your campsite? It's an amazing spot. You wouldn't mind if I share the warmth of the campfire with you, eh?" He smirks, knowing they unlikeliness of their compliance.

The ogre says in goblin, in a slow, dumb voice:
[spoiler]"Ooh boy!  More meat!"[/spoiler]

Bugbear 2 drops a javelin and draws his morningstar while charging Grizz at P12 -> d20 + 7 = 13, and misses.

Bugbear 3 draws his shield while moving to L8, by the tree, and throws a javelin at Grizz -> d20 + 3 - 4 = 1, and misses.

BB#2
Ready Aim FIRE: 1d20+6=26, 1d6-2=2, 1d6=1
Confirmation and extra damage: 1d20+6=13, 1d6-2=0

the fail here is epic. Critical hit for less than a maximum roll (including the extra sonic damage in the total but not the max)

Bugbear 1 draws his shield and moves next to the bush at M 13.  He throws a javelin at Serias -> d20 + 3 - 2 = 6, and misses.

The ogre moves up to T 10 (his upper left corner) and attacks Grizz through the bush -> d20 + 8 = 9, and misses, regardless.

He doesn't come within Ice Patch range.

(Team Monster sucks this round!)

AoO on BB 2 (for charging someone with a guisarme!):
1d20(16)+4=20
2d4(3,1)+4=8

Grizz takes a 5-foot step to O13, then attack #1 with Leading the Attack:
1d20(12)+6=18
2d4(3,4)+4=11

And allies get a +4 to hit #1.

(Good catch on the AoO.  Sorry about that.  Bugbear 2 is still up, but not doing as well.)

Thorden's bolt flies a bit too high.

Grizz cuts the bugbear deeply.

Bugbear 2, visibly angry, draws his shield and swings his morningstar at Grizz -> d20 + 5 = 20, and hits for -> 1d8 + 2 = 4 damage!

Bugbear 3 draws his morningstar and double moves down to L 20.

The ogre makes a Reflex save -> d20 = 2, and falls on his butt.

(Aepa, you moved adjacent to the bugbear and shot.  Was that intentional?)

Aepa's shot hits the bugbear!


Bugbear 1 draws his morningstar and takes a five-foot step to N 13 and attacks Grizz -> d20 + 5 = 18, and hits for 4 damage!

The ogre stands up, and attempts to walk off the ice patch, and rolls a Balance check -> d20 - 1 = 5, and it falls again (failing by 5).  Oops!

No it wasn't. I didn't notice that he moved that far. I guess I'd have just stayed where I was and shot him then, since my movement was just to get a clear LoS on him.
