Salix will call lightening on W4.

Harp will stand and watch everyone else do their thing, hoping that the plans comes off as hoped. He is a bit concerned about everyone being so close together - the spell casters don't have to be "right" behind the fighters. Harp will say back over his shoulder to Kal "Kal, try to get Salix and Allistair to step back a bit - I want some room up here if Ragnar adn I have to change places with Ran and Mund."

Is it too late to have Salix back up as far as possible after casting CL? I actually meant to include that, but forgot.
From: Mark
Subject Round 1 actions
No it is not too late. It might even be tomorrow before I get the turn done. We are doing year end inventory today, I have an auction I have to participate in and I am hosting my RL DnD game tonight.
From: Porter
Subject Real life
RL!?!!!! What kind of sick priorities do you have?
From: Mark
Subject Real life
Now you see I would also expect Kevin to make a comment like that, but he is one of the people in the RL game, so no bitching from him
From: Karl
Subject Real life
I submit that the portion of my life that it takes to participate in this game by email is every bit as real as the lives involved in the one you are having face to face tonight.
That said, I don't begrudge you the "RL" experience. Have fun. :-D
From: Porter
Subject Real life
Karl, I thought you had my back! Now is the time to begrudge
From: Mark
Subject Real life
True, true, but you guys, and gal, don't get my wife's fresh baked chocolate chip cookies.
From: Kevin
Subject Real life
But they don't mix real well with the sausage and pepperoni pizza and beer I have every week.
Of course, during Lent, that is soy sausage and pepperoni, right???? (Wink, wink, nod, nod, - know what I mean?).
From: Karl
Subject Real life
Ok, NOW I begrudge you the experience. :P

A day late and a dollar short. <_<

Allistair isn't sure whether Kal is referring to W4 or W8, so he targets W4 with a MM.
From: Mark
Subject Real life
I am trying to convince my wife bake some Thursday night next week so that we can have some fresh ones on Friday night Karl.

Ranthir waits with Mund as well and will target the first creature to get near him.
From: Mark
Subject Round 1 actions
Ok here is how this works as far as I understand.
Mund and Ranthir are holding action until the beasties act. this has a couple of effects. It lowers your init score to theirs, but you will still act before them, basically becuase you are preparing for their move towards you. I want to know what MUnd and Ran will do if the things do not close?
From: Porter
Subject Round 1 actions
Um. That's a good point.
It that too far away to chuck a knife?

OOC: In other words, "These things will not close because they have a range attack, and you all are screwed. What will you do?" ;)
From: Kevin
Subject Round 1 actions
OOC:I think if they start getting hit by MM and lighting and a thrown weapon or two, some of them will come after us. Of course, if they have a 60' cone breath weapon, we are done for. No one know what they are or what they can do, so Harp is doing the best he can with what he knows. Lets hope that is enough.
From: Porter
Subject Round 1 actions
If they have range weapons, then there's no reason to sit back and let them keep doing it.
Mund can make it the entire distance to the doggies in one turn and attack with his axe. Can Ranthir?
From: Ashley
Subject Round 1 actions
Um, is it still a good idea for Surin to try and get an axethrow in?
P.S. he is *so* getting a ranged weapon when we get outa here
From: Jason
Subject Round 1 actions
Damn this was a bad day to swap Protection from Elements for Cure Moderate Wounds. (Of course, if I hadn't, Mund might be dead right now.)
From: Porter
Subject Round 1 actions
It's kinda funny that we all know what these things are, but none of our characters do.

Subject Round 1 actions
OOC:If worse comes to worse, we charge the ones in the hallway. Taking on 4 of them does not worry me too much. 8 of them(and surrounded at the same time) that worries me. If they hang back, then we charge them.
From: Randy
Subject Round 1 actions
If they don't approach us, then I say we charge. I don't know if Ranthir can reach them and attack in the same turn but he can be a good meat shield.
From: Porter
Subject Round 1 actions
It's a plan then. If they don't come forward, Ranthir and Mund will.
From: Mark
subject: Round 1 actions
Mund can make it, I think, with a standard move action and still have a standard attack.
Ranthir would have to do a charge action, which allows a double move and a standard attack. He also would get bonuses to hit but take a -2 to AC, IIRC.
From: Kevin
Subject Round 1 actions
If Harp sees Mund and Ran move foward, he will move forward (2 move actions, since he has no one to charge.
He will say to Kal "Kal, stay here with the others in case these things break through." Turning to Ragnar, he says "For the glory of Heironious, lets take the battle to them".
If Mund and Ran do not move (the creatures come to us) he will not do the above.
From: Porter
Subject gods
Just so it's clear, Mund ain't doin' *nothin* for the glory of Heironious.
From: Porter

Harp didn's ask Mund to do it, he asked his fellow cleric of Heironious.
Mund is soooo sensitive.
From: Jason
Subject Round 1 actions
Ragnar will cast spirit weapon and have it attack whichever one has been shot by magic missiles. He'll have it attack from behind (it doesn't help flank, but at least it will be out of the way.) If Harp moves up, Ragnar will move up with him. For the glory of Heironeous. (Does anyone else find it amusing that Harp is acting for the glory of some god that doesn't exist? I mean I realize the Knights of the Silver Sword are a military order, but you'd think they would at least get the name right :)

Man do I love this quote. Can I use it?
From: Randy
Subject Round 1 actions
Ranthir will charge if it comes to that.
From: Ashley

I, for one, have no idea what they are.
Is anyone else having trouble getting messages from Karl? Gmail keeps sending his messages to my spam folder and telling me he's a phishing scam. Silly gmail.
From: Porter
Subject Round 1 actions
It's probably because the word "visa" is in his email account.

Damn! They're on to me.
