Rorin watched as the troll was stuck with Arbogast's spear and then arrows clattered against it from Bandy, two in quick succession, but neither attack slowed the creatures charge. The Dwarf stood his ground and met the enemy head on.

TN was 17 (defensive stance + 5 parry rating) so that's a hit right?
:ooc: That is 14 Endurance damage. You rolled a Great Success so you get to add your Damage bonus.
The troll charged straight at Rorin, bellowing a fearsome warcry that may have turned a lesser warrior craven. But Rorin planted his feet and waited for the moment he knew was coming. Lurg bore down on the dwarf and raised his massive club over his head to deal a death blow, Rorin firmly waited until the very last moment possible before diving between the massive legs of his opponent in an attempt to avoid the attack, as he came out the other side he swung wide with his hammer and caught the troll on the back of it's knee causing it to stumble under it's own weight.
Seeing the dwarf clear his line of fire the Hobbit let loose with another arrow.
Rolled 1d12 : 11, total 11
Rolled 1d12 : 12, total 12
Rolled 3d6 : 1, 2, 6, total 9
The third arrow of the Hobbit struck true as Bandy quickly drew a fourth and took aim. His concentration gone over completley to becoming one with his bow.
(9 endurance, prot. Test)
Not leaving a pause for the creature to regain its momentum, Arbogast swings his axe at its other knee, as if he were feeling a monstrous tree. Lurg's club beats and shivers the stones around him, and he is glad behind measure of Robin fighting alongside him and Bandobras' archery keeping it distracted.

Lurg's Protection test:TN 14 armour 3d:00: 1d12 : 3, total 3

Arrows sprouted from his arms and shoulders; his large legs were hewn, but not yest sundered. Lurg only felt rage at these pests that swarmed him. The troll raised his club towards the object of his ire and slammed it down.

Rorin watched as earth and water exploded into the oncoming night where Lurg's massive club hammered the ground - right where he had just been! The Dwarf thanked Aulë the Maker as he ran to engage once more.

:ooc: Not at this point, I think. Like I said, I've been going through it quickly of late, and a single attack roll probably isn't important enough to use more. As me again once Arbogast has been smacked around a bit...
