GM: You plow into the surprised knights, who apparently thought that just because you dropped your axe and drew a potion, you weren't going to attack.
Mrugnak: Beh, logic smogic.

GM: BTW, a Berserk check at -2?

Cid: -47HP now?
GM: Right!
Cid: That forces me 2 more HT rolls
Mrugnak: Hell you're fine. I managed -120 once.
GM: No, only 1 roll. If you pass multiple thresholds at once, you roll at a -2 penalty per threshold.
GM: But as you pointed out, you made it by 6.
Cid: And I did
GM: So you're alive.
GM: Just, y'know, impaled a lot.
Richard: you just need a bunch of healing pots
Cid: You're invited to fetch them for me, Richard. They're right next to the building

Orcs: "Our shields are-um burning-um!"

Ayake: I mean, it's an area attack.
GM: I suppose so.
Mrugnak: Erk.
GM: There's fire, they're taking some damage.
Mrugnak: Oh wait!
GM: [3d6] => [1,3,6] = (10)

** Richard curses his early paste **

GM: Attack roll?
Connell: [3d6.skill(18,-5)] => [3,3,3] = 9 vs (13) or less Success! by 4
Connell: (( I fail at typing today. :P ))
Orcs: Horse Dodge! [3d6.skill(10,-2)] => [4,4,5] = 13 vs (8) or less Failure! by 5
Connell: On hit: [1d6+3] => [3,3] = (6)
GM: Well, no... you just intercepted a bunch of charging horses.
GM: Damage is [(7d6+1)/2)] => (7d6+1)/2) crushing to you, and [(5d6+3)/2] => 13.0 cutting to them.
GM: [(7d6+1)/2] => 14.0 i meant.
Connell: [3d6.skill(11,0)] => [2,3,5] = 10 vs (11) or less Success! by 1
GM: You slam into them at a combined speed of around 30 miles an hour. (50 kph?)
Connell: Well I don't drop instantly unconscious.
GM: You take 9 damage (ow!) and pretty much kill a horse.
Orcs: Riding [3d6.skill(14)] => [2,3,1] = 6 vs (14) or less Success! by 8
Orcs: The orcs dodge over you, mostly.
| 5) YOUR TURN NOW:: [24] Mrugnak (on deck: [24] Richard) |
Mrugnak: So now it's orcs on horses between me and Cid?
Mrugnak: Eh. Same difference.
Ayake: Unarmored horses.
Ayake: (At what point of 'cutting horses apart' does this stop being a cavalry troop?)
Mrugnak: Mrugnak wades in, looking to break legs!
Ayake: (As in, about how badly hurt have I got this crowd of guys?)
GM: If the Orcs make their riding rolls, damage to horses is applied as half damage to the riders.
GM: Otherwise, full damage.
GM: Mob 5 is on its last legs.
Ayake: Right.
Mrugnak: Leg target instead of face! SM+1 instead of 0! -2 for darkness still! Huvudet-krossat-i (Morningstar) [3d6.attack(23,-2-2+1)] => [6,2,3] = 11 vs (16) or less Success! by 5 (Auto DA for -4/-2)

| 6) YOUR TURN NOW:: [24] Richard (on deck: [24] Cid) |
Mrugnak: Step around the mob.
GM: Richard?
Richard: reroll or keep the 10?
Ayake: It was a roll vs 18-. I'd reroll in hopes of a crit. :P
GM: You have a -5 penalty for targeting the middle of a moving mob, as you have to arc the shot.
Richard: fire [3d6.skill(18,+4+4-3-5)] => [4,2,2] = 8 vs (18) or less Success! by 10 center of cav3
GM: Yeah, okay.
Cid: There's 1 thing that utterly mystifies me
Richard: [2d6] => [3,3] = (6) boom
GM: Lemme see. 6+5 is 11 hits. for basically no damage to the knights themselves, but lots of minor wounds to the horses.
Ayake: And I think that bounces off Connell and Mrugnak and Cid entirely.
Narrator: As the explosive arrow shatters on the ground, the horses scream and flail, collasping in an untidy collection and half filling Richard's defensive wall.
Narrator: The few knights that manage to jump clear turn and flee.
GM: What's your question, Cid?
Cid: Nevermind
Cid: I was curious why I was exempt from explosive damages
Richard: DR :)
Mrugnak: High DR.
Ayake: 'because it's 2d6 damage and you have DR 10'.
Ayake: Basically.
Cid: Except for my face
Ayake: It's 'fragments', not 'explosives'
Ayake: They're treated differently.
GM: What he said.

and lance him as they go [3d6.skill(16,4-8)] => [2,2,4] = 8 vs (12) or less Success! by 4 DA-8/-4
Cid: I want them as far away as possible
Ayake: This is not a full charge - lance is 6 lbs?
GM: They haven't slowed down yet, so yes, it's still a full charge. It's basically the back line riding over you.
Orcs: Cavalry 4 turns and rides south, hoping to avoid Berkun.
Ayake: They didn't slow down for having to ride over a load of dead orcs and half their own number's horses being de-legged?
Orcs: Good point.
Orcs: The effective weight is 24, then.
Ayake: Karate Parry the Tramplings: [3d6.skill(17,-3)] => [6,2,2] = 10 vs (14) or less Success! by 4 and the lances [3d6.skill(17,-4)] => [2,5,6] = 13 vs (13) or less Success! by 0

Ayake: [3d6.skill(16,0)] => [3,3,2] = 8 vs (16) or less Success! by 8
Ayake: THOOM.
GM: Damage?
Ayake: Damage is [2d6+4] => [3,3,4] = (10) cut cone.
Ayake: Area attack, so average of torso and lowest DR.
Ayake: HT at -1 per 2 penetrating damage or stunned. Will at -1 per 2 penetrating damage or stunned.

Connell: Back off, heading around a building, and turn back into a faun.
Connell: Or, when I see the orcs, stay a tiger. :P
GM: Okay, you're a badly hurt faun. You can see Cid's backpack.
GM: Oh, right.
| 5) YOUR TURN NOW:: [24] Mrugnak (on deck: [24] Richard) |
Mrugnak: Mrugnak steps up to Cid and beans him with the healing potion!
Mrugnak: Uh. which one was that? Regular or Major?
Ayake: Endless Major, I think.
GM: "attempt to fast draw one of the Bottomless potions of minor healing!"
GM: I have chat logs =)
Mrugnak: Minor! Thank you :D
Ayake: Whup.
GM: Cid heals [1d6] => [3] = (3) damage.
Mrugnak: Um.
Mrugnak: Never said Mrugnak was smart.
Mrugnak: "Why it no fix puppy?"
Cid: I am just so angry right now...
GM: You're not sure, but given that he still has a lance embedded in him, you don't think he's well yet.
Ayake: Man, if you're getting angry about a game, it's time to step back.
Mrugnak: To be honest, 2d over 1d wasn't going to help much.
| 6) YOUR TURN NOW:: [24] Richard (on deck: [24] Cid) |
Richard: who are the cav 1 going for?
Ayake: Looks like Mrugnak and Cid.

Mrugnak: Uh huh.
Mrugnak: That's funny.
GM: You're hit by 5 lances and have +2 to defend.
Mrugnak: So.
Ayake: Notably, parrying those is not a good option for your morningstar.
Ayake: Since they're what, 6x its weight?
Mrugnak: 9.5 lbs
GM: 36 lbs is 3 times the weight, and its' fine. He could try it!
Mrugnak: the lances are effectively how much?
GM: 36 lbs.
Mrugnak: Sorry yes.
Ayake: It'll break on a... 1 on 1d6, I think, because it's Fine?
Mrugnak: it is indeed fine!

Ayake: So no.
Ayake: I keep not being able to do useful ripostes either.
Orcs: Clumsy lance strikes on Richard! [3d6.skill(9,4)] => [3,6,3] = 12 vs (13) or less Success! by 1
Ayake: Where are all the two-axe orcs?

Mrugnak: I'll take it :D
GM: 'kay.
GM: Cav #2 takes [6d6] => [1,5,1,4,5,5] = (21) damage from running into a ditch. And they hit Richard unless he defends from the... back, really.
Richard: back or flank?
Ayake: Might I recommend 'feverish dodge and drop'?
GM: Flank. If they'd jumped the wall, they'd have gotten you in the back, but they failed.
Richard: ok
Richard: any other minues?
Richard: from RoF etc?
GM: No, it was a clumsy attack on their part and only 1 lance landed.
Richard: retreating dodge [3d6.skill(8,+1+3+3)] => [5,2,1] = 8 vs (15) or less Success! by 7

Ayake: You can't parry it, it's not a thrown weapon. :P
Mrugnak: Frantic!

Richard: pretty much
Ayake: We TOTALLY won.
Richard: well, this rounds
Richard: what will the castle hold?
Ayake: So I have an idea.
GM: The goblin mage turns and flees south, too, by the way.
Ayake: I'd like to send one more-or-less unwounded orc back to the castle.
Ayake: With a message.
GM: The other forces on the road quickly start falling back to the castle.
GM: What's the message?
Ayake: That if the castle's inhabitants leave behind their arms and armor, surrender, and march quietly out of the valley, we won't kill them all.
Ayake: That said: I suspect other PCs may nix this plan.
Cid: I reject. It will be a taunt the orcs won't take lightly
Mrugnak: If that's a distraction while we go somewhere else?
GM: We'll deal with your mad plan next week.
Mrugnak: not that Mrugnak is cunning enough to suggest that.
Mrugnak: I think he'd think that's a fine idea.
GM: And Cid doesn't get a vote until he's conscious.
GM: Come to think of it, Ayake isn't probably making many suggestions until he's healed.
GM: Etc. etc.
Richard: heh
Richard: rest time, then heals
Narrator: The last of the orcs retreated south.
