Heh crit hit with two NAT 20s IN A ROW! Ironheart still has his man-parts, but that bolt came within inches of making him a soprano! Between the two hits, he just took 21 points of damage.
All four crossbowmen are holding empty weapons now. One of the two club wielding baddies is down but not unconscious, and the other [the apparent leader] is a few feet away from ironheart, on top of the corner table. Jamethon is underneath the table. I don't have a map for you, but this is all taking place in a fairly small area. The enemy combatant furthest from IH is maybe 15 or 20 feet away, at most. Spacing is tight, maybe five feet between each man.

Cross -face and his guys are running away!

I've resolved everyone's action-everyone but IH.

I'll be in Newmarket on the 15-17th, fighting the Yanks as part of the 8th Virginia Infantry. That means no updates from me then. Of course, you guys will then have time for in and out of character discusssion and planning. You may need it.....

Yeah, it should be fun. Feel free to post purely intra-party RP stuff, but don't expect any combats, NPC interactions, or changes of scene.

Raf's scene.....well, that may be a cliffhanger if he doesn't post soon!

I figured IH was raging and using his available AoO, high MOVE + spring attack, dual weapons,etc. The only way it could have been uglier would have been cleave or maybe combat reflexes. As it was, it was pretty brutal. I rolled for you, Raf, since you didn't send me specific actions/rolls [I don't mind rolling for you if you don't mind it].

I rolled a fear/morale checks fro the three surviving baddies. All have failed and are spooked/shaken up. The frozen guy rolled an EPIC FAIL.

IH may take another round of actions- you have the initiative.

I'm setting up an interlude [later tonight- must go do PT now].

OH, and that last post was NOT a mistake. You have all been abruptly reassigned, and the case you were working on.....has been closed???

More likely someone high up in the city got the case closed

Wow! We hit a nerve!

Shall we assume that the night is pretty much over for all PCs? Spellcasters will want to rest , injured party members will want to get healing, IH might...well, let's not think to hard about what he might be doing!

If you guys would like, I can post a short interlude thread. It would be at the Old Shell, most likely [or somewhere else if you prefer]. That's operating on the assumption that the party members will want to regroup, swap info, plan,etc.

Uh, catching a disease?

But they can't take ME off the case! One of the advantages of not selling out all my principles and joining the forces of oppression.

Cool. Please roll for me - I'll usually give more detailed descriptions for my actions, but I definitely refer if you do the rolls.
