Let's keep heading east towards the keep. You, you, and you: Harold points to R, O, and L (I can't remember their names): Each of you, grab a kid and let's move faster towards the keep!

Harold takes a second to analyze his surroundings for safer routes, dangers, etc.
Cuth grabs the older child while aria grabs the youngest. Oliver, quite an old man, pauses for a second, not wanting to be difficult. He is too frail to be able to carry a child. Linan, the child’s mother sees this and chimes in. no need, I’m well enough to carry him.

"We must either take that group by surprise and with swift and devastating force," the monk whispered to the huddled group. "Or we must head to the buildings to the north to skirt around them. I am ready to take these brigands head on but we have these good townsfolk to think of. What say you friends?"
Mar 11, 2018 11:22 pm
Stealth is alien to the hulking Dragonborn, but also he is badly injured. But that’s no reason to shirk his duty and protect the group.

"Sah. We need to take them out while we have the initiative. Delaying our chance may not turn out well."

The power of the God of Light does not sneak in the darkness like a common criminal!

Eyes wide, Thorndyke regards the others with more than a little concern.

"Wait, wait, wait... you're just going to go running in swinging swords?" he hisses, "We don't even know what's at the other side of this building! Those guys could be just the nose of the dragon!"

As soon as the metaphor is out he remembers there is an actual dragon flying around overhead and doesn't quite manage to stop himself from ducking.

"Look, how about this," he says in a conciliatory tone, "I'll make a distraction and then everybody makes a run for the keep. If any of you really can't control your deathwish you can be rear-guard. How does that sound?"
OOC:
Thorndyke is planning to go to the north-western corner of the building and cast a minor illusion of himself walking round the south-western corner so that the group of enemies chases it west.

I like the distraction plan! We need to help these people out of here! That's our first priority.

Harold sides with Thorndyke.

Speaking as a soldier, Sah, leaving the enemy alive only means more enemies.
Mar 12, 2018 4:28 pm
Thorndyke grins,

"But getting all of your allies killed means nobody left to kill enemies."

Thorndyke’s response makes no sense to the Paladin. Is he trying to outsmart him or something. He knows he’s not super-smart, but he’s not stupid either, and he knows a thing or two about combat. Sneaking around really is not in his nature, and certainly he totally disagrees with Thorndyke on this one. He’ll try to be diplomatic as the little man means well. Sah, in my experience distractions sometimes don’t work out well, and when they go wrong they go very wrong. Dead kobolds can not harm us. Alive ones raising an alarm can, Sah. He allows himself a moment to look smug at his surprisingly eloquent explanation.

Hearing the bickering, I react. Bah, all talk and no action. I run around the corner and look to attack.

Thorndyke rolls his eyes then turns to the civilians,

"RUN!!!" he urges, and tries to herd them towards the keep.

Varl ruffles a childs hair smiling kindly in an attempt to stop them being frightened.

"We will be safe soon, little ones," he whispers.

With a final look at the civilians, Varl, sickle in hand joins his attacking companions.

OOC:
Just as an FYI guys, to help with speeding things up I will always roll iniative when the time comes. If you guys are attacking right now then you in fact get a round of surprise. Everyone can go ahead and declare an action at this time. Use the most recently posted map for starting point.

Rolls

Iniative: Actaeon, Bartholomew, Harold, Oraten, Thorndyke, Varl - (1d20+4, 1d20+3, 1d20+3, 1d20+2, 1d20+2, 1d20+4)

1d20+4 : (10) + 4 = 14

1d20+3 : (2) + 3 = 5

1d20+3 : (2) + 3 = 5

1d20+2 : (3) + 2 = 5

1d20+2 : (7) + 2 = 9

1d20+4 : (8) + 4 = 12

Townsfolk - (1d20)

(1) = 1

Humans

Kobolds

As soon as I turn the corner, I spot the human. Grovel!

Harold moves 30 feet the to right, in the middle of the road, then takes a shot at H2 with his bow.

OOC:
Bart- the map I just posted has you at 30 feet...do you wish to continue for a dash action or would you like to take a different Action?
Harold’s lands in the grass at H2’s feet.

Oraten’s command forces H1 to the ground. (He will lose his first turn)

OOC:
im sorry I might have done a bad job explaining. On the last map I posted you had used your regular movement to get next to Oraten. If you wish to use the Dash action you can press forward otherwise you will need to use a ranged attack from your current location.

Yer, this isn’t what I wanted to do. I thought we were going to take them by surprise, not run into the open!

Im pretty sure I’ve taken the actions as described but feel free to explain if I’ve made a mistake.

If you wish we can say everyone moved up closer before taking action. Unless you say you went through the bushes then the closest you can get is H1, K1 or maybe H2
