Round 1 - To save their kin!

[tomcat]

OOC: Hey Paul, even though your opponents are large, due to the cave size, no troll can have more than two attackers unless the troll is drivedn into the main chamber.

If you nee anymore input, let me know...

OOC: Dirnhael would like to try and slip by the trolls in an effort to get closer to the prisoners. Is that possible in this round?

[tomcat]

OOC: Hey Shawn, yes... the Dwarves have engaged the Trolls distracting them enough to allow a couple to pass - Nain is one.

I will be starting a Round 2 post based on the actions you all have stated thus far. It wil be up in a few hours, see it for the narrative and give me your next round actions based from that.

OK. Dirnhael will try to sprint past the trolls and make his way toward the prisoners, hoping to release them and improve their odds against the trolls. On the way, he glances about for their weapons or anything else they could give the dwarves to use in combat.

OOC: thanks, ill have to look at the damage rules update... i must have missed it

[Wiseman]

Seriand's blade was ready to taste troll flesh, but the cramped confines of the cave were not allowing this.  The next best action was to rush past them and help the fallen dwarves as best as he could.

The elf moved quickly toward the dwarves that had been captured.

[Palandil]

OOC: I moved this post here.

Fengel was suddenly surprised when Dirnhael took off past the trolls into their den.  He thought Dirnhael would have let the dwarves save their kin.  Now it seems that retreat will not be an option for him no matter what.  Raising Cerduil and his shield, he quickly moves to engage one of the beasts blocking the main chamber to hopefully keep an opening for Dirnhael to get back out.

Action 1: Attack Troll (Ort) TN 10 -2 Size Mod = TN 8
AC +13; LongS +2; Night-eyed +2 no penalty
Roll(1d12)+15: 3,+15 Total:18

Action 2: Attack Troll (Ort) TN 10 -2 Size Mod = TN 8
AC +13; LongS +2; Night-eyed +2 no penalty
Roll(1d12)+15: 1,+15 Total:16 (Do I roll 1d6 now for this 1 on a d12 for a miserable roll?!!) Yes ... I rolled it for you: Roll(1d6)+0: 1,+0 Total:1 = 15

Action 3: Save for Parry.

[tomcat]

OOC: Ort makes no attempt to stop Fengel's attacks, as he is totally intent on the Dwarf below him...

Damage from Cerduil (Superior Successes, so an extra +1d6 is scored):

Attack 1 - Roll(3d6)+8: 3,6,5,+8 Total:22 (-5 armour) = 17
Attack 2 - Roll(3d6)+8: 1,2,5,+8 Total:16 (-5 armour) = 11


Cerduil cut deep and Ort raised an angry gaze to the Éothraim - the little man would pay for his insolence.
