Try as she might Khurza cannot block everything, feeling the wounds bite into her skin. "YOU WILL KNOW TRUE PAIN!" She shouts triumphantly swinging into the shorter minions. After a few swings she pulls up her shield, banging it to taunt them so as to open an opportunity for Jabari.
OOC:
Keeping things simple this round: 9 Damage to the minions (was hoping to kill but not so sure without a crit) and a second boost die for Jabari.

Minions Attack

OOC:
Rolling for stuff now, description will follow....
Khurza's axe whips round, cutting one goblin down straightaway and slicing accross the chest of another.

The goblins around Khurza and Jabari lunge forwards, trying to press their attacks home. Whist the mob of goblins manage to land a number of solid blows on Khurza and Jabari the better armoured thug can't seem to breach Khurza's defences.

Pomin's arrow flashes out and slams into the Goblin Witchers leg and she lets out a scream of rage before levelling her staff at Pomin again and returning fire.
OOC:
Goblin Thug and Goblin Minion Group 1 are attacking Khurza - Goblin Thug gets a boost die from the Witchers last action.
Goblin Minion Group 2 are attacking Jabari
Goblin Witcher is attacking Pomin - The Witcher gets 2 x Boost die on her attack due to her Spiteful Curse ability (the nasty little Gnomeses hurts it!!!!)

Goblin Minion Group 1 does 7 damage to Khurza, what do you want to do with the 2 Threats?
Goblin thug passes a boost along to next round
Goblin Minion Group 2 does 6 damage to Jabari, again what do you want to do with the 3 Threats?
Goblin Witcher hexes Pomin again for 9 damage.

Add a setback die to the spooky witch's next action.

Nice summer themed avatar Remnant.

OOC:
For the 3 Threat, I'm going to say the Goblins attacking Jabari stumble over themselves and fall prone. This will mean they have to use a maneuver to get back up, and melee attacks on them get a boost until they get back up.
Jabari blocks some of the Goblin onslaught with his shield, but he feels the sting of a dagger nonetheless. As one of the Goblins lunges for another stab, the tribesman sees an opening and trips the attacker. The Goblin falls back, sending its cronies tumbling, as well. Jabari takes advantage of their misfortune and stabs downward at them.
OOC:
That's 9 damage before Soak, plus I'll use the 2 Advantage to crit and kill one of the Goblins outright. Then my free maneuver to back out of engaged range with them (so they'll be unable to return attack, since they have to spend a maneuver to get up and a second to re-engage).

OOC:
She didn't use a maneuvre, just an Action to sling the pain at Pomin. My bad, I thought the spell the goblin was doing was a Curse and not an attack (it's one of the pre-prepped ones in the statblock) which I had in my head wouldn't be affected by Defense. Rolling a setback for it now and a crit in case it's relevant.

Ok that's either a Severity 1 Sudden Jolt (15) or a Severity 1 Off-Balance (25) if Pomin still has a non healed crit (I've it in my head he was injured previously but could be mistaken)
I their eagerness to slice into him the goblins fighting Jabari tumble over themselves as his sword flashes out, cleaving into two of them as he dances backwards. The lone surviving goblin tries to quickly extracate itself from the bodies of it's companions.

OOC:
So is Pomin KO'ed from exceeding his Wound Threshold? And we need to kill this witch pronto!
Jun 25, 2019 1:38 pm
OOC:
No crits besides the jolt currently but I'm down I think if that's 8 wounds since I had 4 left after healing my last turn.
Jun 25, 2019 2:02 pm
OOC:
Don't forget your Soak, but, yeah, I think that still puts you just over threshold.
Jabari notices some sort of wicked magic emanating from the goblin witcher and sees Pomin fall. "Our little friend's down!" he shouts to Khurza. "That witch will be the death of us!"
OOC:
Mcneils, how far is Jabari from the witcher? Could he get into engaged with her/him this turn? What about Khurza? Somebox, I'm wondering if we should concentrate our efforts on that threat, as it seems the most dangerous... (Also, we might consider using a SP to upgrade the witcher's next check -- Despair can deprive her of magic, and Jabari's able to steal a SP back to our pool...)

OOC:
Since she hasn't moved she's at Short range, the difference is 1 less wound so I'm still in the negative wounds. Oddly enough when the ranged guy tanks the boss he don't last long. It's a bit late for me to try counter spelling through Verse but I can get popcorn now and just watch.
Jun 25, 2019 6:00 pm
OOC:
At this point I am inclined to agree Savagebob! Poor Pomin has gone down like three times now.
Jun 25, 2019 7:38 pm
Jabari sneers at the Goblin flailing under the weight of its dead companions and considers slaying it before it becomes a threat. But then he sees the trails of black magic coming from the witcher's staff. "I've had enough magic for one lifetime..."
OOC:
The final Goblin minion Jabari was fighting should still be prone, meaning it can't hurt anyone this turn--It will have to spend a maneuver standing, and another engaging with Jabari or Khurza.
The desert nomad charges the witch with shield and sword raised, pressing the attack before the sorcerer casts more dark magic.
OOC:
One maneuver to engage with the witcher, a second (2 strain) to Aim. Attacking with the sword. Was hoping for a crit, alas. That's 8 damage on the witcher before Soak. And I've used a SP to upgrade her next magic check.
OOC:
Sorry--forgot the witcher has Adversary 1. Should I reroll the check? Or just the difficulty?
OOC:
Also forgot its defense.

Jabari leaps at the Goblin Witcher but she seems ready for his attack, twisting around and throwing her staff in the way of his attacks.
OOC:
So I make Jabari's attack to be 3 x Success, 2 x Advantage, 3 x Failure, 1 x Threat....net total of 1 x advantage, any ideas on how you want to spend it?

Khurza is up!
Jul 1, 2019 5:29 pm
Seeing Jabari in danger Khurza briefly disorients the thug she's engaged with by headbutting him, using the opportunity to rush at the witch herself, Slamming her to the ground with her shield.
OOC:
Maneuver to get with the witch, knocking her prone (but not pushing her back) with my triumph and bullrush.

Using the advantage to add a setback to the thug.

Well the extra advantage tragically did not help.

OOC:
Let's use Jabari's Advantage to give Khurza a boost. (It's what I would have done, but in this case, looks like it might just make her attack a success, since she's sitting on a wash on Success/Failure). Also remember the witcher's next attack gets upgraded from a SP use.

Rolls up now, post will follow shortly
The Witcher winces as she returns to her feet, the injury from Pomins arrow still seeming to cause her some difficulties, before she levels her staff at Khurza and screams at the orc as lightning leaps forth.
OOC:
Casting a Magic Attack with the 'Close Combat' and 'Lightning' additional effects and is using Autofire from the Lightning (4 base difficulty, dif upgraded once due to SP, 2 Setback)
The lone remaining goblin in the group Jabari had been fighting finally manages to pull itself clear of the pile of corpses and joins with the other group of gobbos.
OOC:
will merge with other minion group at end of turn
The goblin thug shouts an order to the other group and they rush round to attack Jabari as it lunges in at Khurza. The group of goblins seem to get in each other's way more than anything and fail to be much of a threat to Jabari but the Thug throws itself quite recklessly at Khurza, managing to strike a couple of quick blows.
OOC:
8 damage to Khurza from the Lightning (soak as normal)
9 damage to Khurza from the Thugs attack


Any ideas what you want to happen with those 4 Threats from the Thug Somebox?
