Round 1- Mewlip Attack

[tomcat]

The following is the current situation:

The Mewlips (ghouls) are sniffing around and approaching from the north, the wargs have slinked off to the south. The ghouls don't seem to know you are there yet, but they are on a scent.

PM: Dim Lighting -3 to all tests; the ghoul's Defence is 12

SM: The ghouls will not go first this round; Daelhun is Tired -2; Dirnhael, Durgil, and Fengell is Winded -1; Be sure to keep an eye on the Status page for your Courage point availability

Initiatives:

Fengel- 12
Durgil- 11
Dirnhael- 10
Edrahil- 9
Daelhun- 9
Mewlips- N/A (10)

[Wiseman]

Init: Roll(2d6)+0: 3,6,+0 Total:9

Daelhun draws his sword and awaits word from his commander as to how they are going to handle the situation.

[sdrotar]

Initiative roll:
Roll(2d6)+2:4,4,+2 Total:10

Dirnhael whispers to his comrades, "If we strike quickly, we can catch them unawares - if only for a moment. Better that then to wait for them to come upon us."

[tomcat]

Heeding Dirnhael's command, Fengel pulled forth his blade and charged the first gaunt shadow that came forth from the Thistletyne bramble.

Edrahil also reacted. The Elf knew his skills of combat were not as worthy as those of his comrades, and his arts could bring attention to the Company from the passing horde not far away. So, instead he took up a position between the moving shapes and the horses. If they were what he thought, they would take any kind of meat!

[Wiseman]

Daelhun charged off on his commander's orders, his sword flashing quickly as he struck at the nearest of the foul creatures.  He felt the adrenaline coursing through his veins and swung his blade.

Attack 1: Roll(2d6)+6: 2,5,+11 -3 Dim light -2 Tired Total:13
Attack 2: Roll(2d6)+6: 6,4,+11 -3 Dim light -2 Tired Total:16

[GandalfOfBorg]

Staying at a distance, Durgil fires an arrow at the nearest of the reviling creatures.  He then moves off to his right, near the rocky cliff, keeping an eye out for the wargs' progress.

[tomcat]

The attacks made by Fengel and the rest of the Company alerted the mewlips to their presence and immediately the creatures went into a berserker rage. With claws and teeth, the ghouls began leaping over the bramble taking the attack to the companions who found themselves pressed.

Action 6 -Roll(2d6)-2: 3,1,-2 Total:2 Disastrous Failure (Damage is maxed)

Damage of 9+12+12 = 33-15 (Armour) = 18

[Wiseman]

Daelhun, who commited himself wholeheartedly to the attack is ill prepared to defend himself from the deadly attacks by the Melwhips.

He is only able to make a single, half-hearted attempt to block the attacks and fails miserable at this, the stings from the enemy attacks are absorbed slightly by the armour that he is wearing but he still feels the pain as the enemy tears through and into his soft skin.

Parry: Failed Rolled 7 vs TN 13

Damage: 30 - 15 = 15 damage.

***

Cursing himself for his clumsy attack a moment before, Dirnhael pushes away the first slash at his flesh, but the second finds its mark, and the Dunadan recoils from a combination of pain and rage.
