If unchecked, I'm going to do a Monty Hall, which Klale well might need.

Just give me a list. :)

Full plate with locked gauntlets, tower shield, bastard sword, dagger, repeating heavy crossbow.

Holy water, thieves' tools for Phineas, sunrods, tanglefoot bags, thunderstones, healer's kit, steel mirror for Phineas.

No such thing as holy water in this context.  Every thing else is easily within dwarven...er, Gonnhirrim skill to make.

Anything else?

Hmm, I'd better think on this. One thing that might be worth it if the Gonnhirrim think it feasible: A (little red?) wagon to put stuff in, and a cover for the wagon.

Doubt the group will have much success sneaking. Will need to IC mention that.

Toben rolled his own init

20:09, Today: Toben Ironsprings rolled 16 using 1d20+2. initiative check.

8:30, Today: Klale Tsolo rolled 5 using 1d20+2. Initiative.

21:42, Today: Ano rolled 14 using 1d20+2. initiative check.

Do you want us to post our first round action and let you sort out the order of things, or do you want us to wait for a cue?

In reply to Ano (msg # 91):

I'm happy with my Take 10 initiative.

Those of you with initiatives before the orcs can post.  Klale will need to wait until after they go.

Just a suggestion given the number of baddies in this camp... we may want a little prep time before running in.

Agreed.   If we have a good plan then maybe  we can make the fight a bit easier.

Toben has a few things he can prep prior to the fight.

+1 to attack and will saves for 3 mins
charge 1d3 projectiles to explode on impact (the charge lasts 3 mins)
+1 AC to a single target for 2 rounds.

I also have an idea that may cause a distraction and give us an element of surprise for the initial attack, if we choose to fight.
Toben has a spell (Magic Mouth, more or less) he can use that cause an inanimate object speak a message after a particular trigger has been met. It can repeat the message for up to 30 minutes. So if he were to cast the spell on a rock, have Phineas deposit the rock on the other side of the camp, and have the trigger fire on a 10 minute delay. The chatter might be enough to pull a few orcs away, or at least draw their attention long enough for us to get the jump on them.

The trigger will also be a good cue to prep the other spells.

I expanded Klale's post to indicate part of a plan.

After re-reading the description of the area, getting the magic mouth on the other side of the camp might be difficult. We could always just launch it over the camp.

If the ceiling  is high enough i could climb it over to the other side.  It would split the party a bit.

How much damage do those exploding projectiles do.  Wondering if we could use them o break the chain on the beast and get it rampaging.

Currently, base projectile damage to the single target +2d6 earth based damage in a 10 ft. radius.

If I get lucky and enchant 3 of them, we could do fair amount of damage right off the bat.

Ya thats definatly one way we could go., really weaken them up first.

My only issue  is im not fully sure i get the lay out of the area.  I did rad there was a slope that would take a while to climb.  Any way we could get some orcs down there.

Yeah, I had to read it a couple of times.

My interpretation of the area is that there is a narrow, railless bridge that passes over a hallway running perpendicular to the bridge. We are on one side of the bridge and the camp is on the other side. I don't think we'd have to worry about the slope unless someone fell, or unless we managed to get the orcs to fall over it.

The GM would need to confirm if that is the correct assumption.

Camp is on this side of the bridge.  You can't see the far side in your current light.

Ok, so that might make it harder to leverage the bridge in our favor. Aside from the 'magic mouth' approach, I am not sure how we could lure them over.

Perhaps we just prep with a Blessing, get a few explosive bolts/arrows and open fire?

Once we decide on a plan, I can RP my casting in the other thread.

FYI, Ano... I believe hps are max'd as you level up.

07:32, Yesterday: Ano rolled 4 using 1d8+3. level 3 hp roll.

Really that would be awesome.  Can i get a confirmation from th GM?

Looks like we are ready to fight.  Did we want to use the exploading projectiles to clear them from the bridge?

I am crafting a post right now to describe my preparations. I would imagine after that we'd start initiative or something.
