Along the Watchtower - round 2

[Telcontar]

Brim! Help me with the door!

[Callowmoryne]

  Ill use this round to run to the base of the tower doug, Full round move or whathaveyou.

Brim quickly brought his own weapon to bear on the wooden door, hoping to cut through the hinges and take the whole thing off.

Here we go!

Attack the door: 1d20+10 : 20 + 10, total 30

If successful, causes this much damage: 2d8+2 : 1, 4 + 2, total 7

[Posterboy]

 Yeah! Natural 20! ... the damage calculation is wrong through.... it should read 2d8+2+3, which would add up to 10 points, not 7.

[Telcontar]

  dang it that was supposed to be my gift from Santa!  stoopid dice roller. Is the door toast?

[tomcat]

Hee hee... at least you can no longer say that the roller favors just the GM. 

The door falls in from Brim's cut. Yea, the dice roller doesn't handle multiple equations (i.e. 1d20+2+3) - instead just type 1d20+5. Also, the Nat 20 doubles the effect of the damage so it is 20 and cuts the door in two.

Logar runs the distance to the tower - going to place you near the door and ladder, John.

Just need Caden and Sam and then I can do the Dugs and the Grans and move us on.

I posted earlier in the thread - I'd like Caden to get as close as he can to Sam, and if he has an action left, he'll provide Farok and Brim with covering fire.

Remember everyone, if you stay in Kaida's LOS, you get +2 to your attacks this encounter.

Yes, you did, Shawn! Sorry. I didn't miss it, just forgot it was there. I have your action mechanics below. Based on the red line LOS marker on the map, it shows that Caden has no blocking terrain to fire on Dug 4. Understand the Dug is roughly 9 feet higher than Caden's position, due to the Rampart. Still, there is the little issue with darkness... let's see.

Caden's actions
MOVE - six squares to G11
STANDARD - fire on D4
DC 17 Ranged w/ PB +8, Darkness -5

Rolled 1d20+3 : 9 + 3, total 12

damage if successful 3d8+4 : 3, 3, 7 + 4, total 17

Caden will also choose this Dug to use his Dodge feat, increasing his defense by +1

[tomcat]

Okay, that leaves Sam. I am going to go ahead and setup round 3.

[tomcat]

Dugs on rampart fire
MOVE - D1 and D4 move into better fire positions
STANDARD - D3 and D2 attack
DC 10 ranged +9, Point blank +1, autofire -5, darkness -5

D2 attacks 2x2 square w/ F & B 1d20 : 9, total 9

D3 attacks 2x2 square w/ B & L 1d20 : 9, total 9

D2 damage if successful; 1/2 if not 3d8+3 : 6, 5, 2 + 3, total 16

D3 damage if successful; 1/2 if not 3d8+3 : 6, 7, 8 + 3, total 24

[tomcat]

The Dug soliers fail to even hit a DC 10 and so the blaster fire scatters all around the three attacking the tower.

Grans inside the tower rush to the weapons cabinet and will be armed and ready for round 3.

[tomcat]

Don has been gone for 11 days, so I am not going to leave this round as closed. If Don gets back, he is welcome to update here.
