He is tempted by the (to him)exotic armors but decides to stick to what he is use to and buys Quilted armor. GM: Ack. Done. 8 CC. You have around 6 Gold so if you want to buy other stuff let me know. From Wout: [Re: Helping Tobie] Dear Tobie, Go ahead and post on the general pnp list as well if you like. Hopfuly 2016 will be a better year for you. GM: Ack. Yeah I've suggested some ways to get better coverage. Some Podcasters on Twitch do charity all the time. As well as some good Facebook pages. I hope it goes well for all of us but especially Jill. From David: [Re: Actions] I will be unavailable Saturday and Sunday while I travel for work. I will only have limited access (mornings and late evenings) to email while I am gone...for three months. Assuming that Kiet's horse has his reins wrapped around something (even his picket stake), Kiet goes after his javelins first. "Don't kill them all, but I'm going after the bowmen first!" Kiet then activates his boots for speed and runs between Where Unali and Kell are currently on the map, and travel northwest about 90', then turn southwest toward northernmost bowman and ready javelin by tapping gem twice for Fatal Spear. Aim for his horse. If any of the swordsmen attempt to cut me off, his horse becomes the target of the javelin and I move to stay out of his reach, and continue toward bowman. That should take at least three phases....? Kiet will continue toward the second bowman, activating his second javelin and aim for the man this time. Then draw tulwar and head for any live bowmen....kill the first, capture one alive. Cast abandon on him if necessary. Use rings in emergency only. GM: Ack. Have fun on your trip. Hopefully a certain country that sounds like Tran won't do much to you there. But if so good luck! :) BTW Goblin sword has abandon on it but would need to carry it in hand and javelins so that's fine. From Kiet: [Re: Actions] Oh, yeah...dodge and weave all the way... GM: Ack. Darn! I thought you were just playing rodeo clown. :) From Z'leyra: [Re: Actions] Z'leyra says "Apparently." Then yells "Prepare to fight!" She stands and readies her Greatsword. Then triggers her boots Speed enchantment. She will melee aggressively any enemies that come close to the party, let the others deal with the archers for now. [She will also try to throw off the horsemen by telling their horses to buck them off when she fights the riders.] GM: Ack. ------------------------------------------------------------ [New Stuff] [Aratad Province - Hills] [Decalis 19th, 1634TH] [Time: 12:26:00 pm] [Phase 0] Kiet stares at the approaching riders so bold to do this in broad daylight. "Don't kill them all, but I'm going after the bowmen first!" Z'leyra hears Kell's words and nods, "Apparently." Then yells "Prepare to fight!" Z'leyra moves to her horse and draws her great sword from the sword sheath. Unali charges her horse and mounts up drawing her magical dagger. Pyan heads to his horse and gets his bow and prepares an arrow from his quiver on his back. [Time: 12:26:03 pm] [Phase 1] The Hill archers fire their bows at Pyan and Arawn. But both arrows fly and miss impacting on the ground a few feet from each person. Pyan fires back at HIllsman #2 with his bow. But his own arrow firing at long range goes astray and he also misses. Z'leyra draws her great sword and turns toward the men on horses and runs straight for them. Kiet grabs his javelins and runs west between Unali on her horse and Kell. He turns north west and moves a bit in that direction and turns south east. This actually make shim about 15 feet ahead of Z'leyra. But due to being behind the others he did not fire his javelins yet or risk hitting the others. But now he is prepared to do so. Unali kicks her horse into gear moving west ending up about 8 feet in front of Z'leyra and 5 feet behind Kiet. Startled by the yelling Corona wakes up and flies skyward moving westward trying to figure out what is going on. Fremea takes to the sky and flies toward the west as well drawing a arrow and preparing it. Finally she can do some aerial combat for a change. The Hills folk are clearly surprised and shocked by the 4 people rushing toward them. Why would two of them RUN to them and one odd flying thing toward them? Are these folks mad? The 5 men seem startled but undaunted by the surprise move for only second. The 3 riders move eastward. Rider #1 ends up about 5 feet from Kiet. At the same time Rider #3 moves straight for Z'leyra. The rider moves his horse just a second quick enough and thrusts at Z'leyra's right upper chest piercing her magical chainmail doing 5 points of damage. Rider #5 moves east and ends up about 8 feet west of Fremea. The Archers know they need to get closer to get better shots but these people are moving fast. Rider #2 follows Rider #5 using him as a possible shield and ends up about 8 feet behind him. But now this archer is only 20 feet due south of Kiet. Rider #4 moves at the same time as #2 and ends up about 4 feet behind #2 again due south of Kiet. Arawn drawing up Sword and Shield move westward running and dodging a bit. Kell looks back and sees only Pyan left. He decides the hunter will need protection. He draws up his shield and holds his spear. "Behind me and fire at them if possible." Pyan comes a few feet closer and grabs another arrow. [Time: 12:26:06 pm] [Phase 2] Kiet sees the archers move into perfect position. But this one rider only feet to his right could hit him any second. He only has a split second to decide. So he decides on both. He throws his javelin straight for the nearest archer, Rider #2 and hits his horse as planned. The horse lurches in mid stride and falls forward dead before his head hits tits the ground. The archer goes flying forward flailing his arms wildly. He goes shoulder first into the ground causing his quiver, sword and bow to go flying in various directions. But upon impact the man takes 6 points of damaged and is stunned. Fremea aims her own bow at Rider #5 The arrow flies the 20 feet and hits the man right in his mouth and slices into the back of his throat. The man goes flying backward from the head shot dead before he hits the ground. Pyan fires on the second archer, Rider #4 and hits the man in the left arm doing 8 points of damage taking ouu his arm. The second archer still on his horse feels his left arm broken and gone so tosses his bow aside and draws his sword. Kiet raises his left hand and aims at Rider #1 setting off the pinky ring. The rider who is still moving eastward only 8 or so feet away suddenly bursts into flame. The man is tossed to the ground and rolls toward Kiet dead before he hits the ground at 30 points of damage. Z'leyra only 2 feet from Rider #3 uses both hands to swing the sword upwards toward the rider but he dodges just in time and the blade fails to hit. Corona finally realizes what is going on and circles the group about to act when he finds a target. Unali sees the archers either down dazed or unable to use their bows so moves the few feet toward Rider #3 attacking Z'leyra. Drawing both daggers she slices toward the man who is now at equal height of her. The magical and regular dagger hits the man and does deadly damage many times over killing the man. The last Hillsman on his horse suddenly sees his friend all slain. His own arm broken he decides to turn and flee back west toward the nearest hill hoping to escape. Arawn runs forward and finds the first archer on the ground dazed and ensures he will not be moving. He places his sword at the man's chest. Kell grins and waves Pyan forward and runs westward. Actions? Comments? Next Update.....Friday... GM: Ok. That was a fast combat. :) The archer is almost dead but dazed but pretty much captured unless you guys decide to finish him off. What to do with the escaping Rider? He is wounded but has some distance away from you guys. He is at least 70 feet or so away from Kiet (long range for Javelin). Even if Corona could try to chase him down but those on foot might not be able to catch up to him even with the speed boots as the movement order dictates. But is possible. GM: Fremea - Will assume you chase the rider and fire on him. Kiet - Next phase you move toward and could get one swipe before he moves away. If you throw now your at Long range and you can't move so you can take the chance to throw and not catch up later or catch up and try to swipe at him before he moves? Unali - Will assume you try to catch him on your horse. the escaping Rider. Pyan - Fleeing Rider is about 160 feet or so away I will assume you fire if able. Z'leyra - Same as Kiet can chase and risk a swipe. What to with the almost dead archer? Yelling at horses don't seem to do anything maybe they don't understand or not their masters? GM: Spider Poison - Teleport was probably the best option as Arawn gave but he was tapped out so since no one took it up too late. Poison not collected. Sorry. Maybe next time. Deadline over. :< GM: Mana - I've updated mana up to this point all but Fremea are well almost full. Fremea is around 91% only due to IBT spells cast recently. GM: IBT: Updated as of Eured City (coming up) Player Result Fremea +1 Knowledge EL Arawn +4 R/W Salaqi EL Pyan +10 Marentian Language EL (now fluent) GM: Spells - Start End Kiet Boots speed 12:26:03 12:27:33 Z'leyra Boots speed 12:26:03 12:27:33 GM: Horse/Food : [When entering Eured - Future] Horses - Z'leyra's #2 pack horse and Kell's horse are not doing so well. Due to exhaustion, weather and food limits not doing so well. If need to replace the horse may need to do so. It might be bad to ride. Kell will replace his horse and buy a new one. After a month of riding this is the result Based on the numbers for food intake and exhaustion. The folks trained in horse can tell it might be dangerous to ride past Eured. Food - Food has gone to almost nothing. Pyan, Arawn, Kiet, Kell (due to loaning others food) and Z'leyra all have no more rations at all. Keep this in mind when entering Eured.
