Jorn grunted as well, chain held ready behind Gurgun to strike anything that might come near.

"Aye. Let's go."

In a well practiced move, Gurgun pushes the door and slides it open.

The door slid open, and Gurgun found himself face to grey rotten face with an orc zombie. "Grugh..." it greeted. Maybe it was his name?

Round 1:



G: Gurgun
G: Garel
S: Slove
J: Jorn

1, 2: Elf Skeletons
H: Hobgoblin Zombie
O: Orc Zombie

Initiative:
28 - Slove
21 - Elf Skeletons
11 - Hobgoblin Zombies
10 - Gurgun
10 - Jorn
 7 - Orc Zombie
 6 - Garel

Slove swops from bow to sword.  Steps to side so Gurgun can move back into room and let creature be surrounded if wants.

OOC: Move I9

OOC: There'll be cover from the corners here, benefit both sides where appropriate.

Mid-Round Update:

The corridor behind was filling with undead minions. Two elven skeletons screeched and brought their bows to bear, firing fletched shafts down the corridor and around the corners at Gurgun. It was an awkward angle, and they only hit the zombies in front, who didn't seem to mind. [S1 and S2 attack, 12 and 7, miss]

An undead hobgoblin quickly shoved his sword through the gap between orc zombie and door-frame at Gurgun, who swayed to the side and used the corner to his advantage and protection. [H attack 16, missed]

Updates:

Slove in I9

Initiative:
28 - Slove
21 - Elf Skeletons
11 - Hobgoblin Zombies
10 - Gurgun
10 - Jorn
 7 - Orc Zombie
 6 - Garel

Feeling somewhat restricted by the doorway Gurgun forgoes his quarterstaff and instead strikes at the zombie with a kick-punch combination. The undead orc seem not to feel the kick but the punch crushes through bone and muscle.
The monk then takes a few steps back to allow their enemies to enter the room and be surrounded.

OOC:
09:49, Today: Gurgun Nightwhisper rolled 11 using 1d8+3. Damage 2.
09:49, Today: Gurgun Nightwhisper rolled 4 using 1d8+3. Damage 1.
09:48, Today: Gurgun Nightwhisper rolled 23 using 1d20+5. FoB 2.
09:48, Today: Gurgun Nightwhisper rolled 25 using 1d20+5. FoB 1.

Because undead are immune to critical hits... grrrr!

Jorn hesitates, the doorway being too small for his chain to be of use. Instead he looks towards the cleric, waiting for his team-mates to clear the way;

Delay Action until after Garel.

OOC: waiting for the orc zombie to act, action will be different if he moves to H8

Mid-Round Update:

Grugh the orc zombie staggered into the room after Gurgun, then swung its big heavy sword in a clumsy strike at the hobgoblin. Gurgun dodged, and the slow undead moved to recover. [DR 5/slashing, so Gurgun did 6 damage. Orc Zombie: attack 14, miss]

Updates:

Slove in I9, Gurgun in H9, Orc Zombie in H8

As he enters the room, the zombie finds itself between Garel and Jorn. Taking advantage of this position, Garel makes an all-out attack with the two ends of his staff, in quick succession.

---

ooc: 12:54, Today: Garel Astur rolled 4 using 1d6+1. dmg 2.
12:54, Today: Garel Astur rolled 3 using 1d6+2. dmg 1.
12:53, Today: Garel Astur rolled 16 using 1d20+6. Attack Zombie 2 (flanking included).
12:53, Today: Garel Astur rolled 14 using 1d20+6. Attack Zombie 1 (flanking included).
Added +2 for flanking.

OOC: Gurgun in G09

Jorn drops his spiked chain, drawing out his axe instead;

[Free] Drop chain
[Move] Draw Throwing Axe
[Standard] Attack Zombie

19:31, Today: Jorn Brightcaller rolled 8 using 1d6+3. Axe, Slashing Damage.
19:31, Today: Jorn Brightcaller rolled 21 using 1d20+5. Attack, Axe.

OOC: I figured that we would have fought enough zombies and undead by now to know what weapons are effective against them.

OOC: Yeah, but Gurgun is limited in his options (as I haven't equipped him properly, hehe). He's good at drawing their attention though!

Garel staff impacted weakly on the soft yielding flesh, not slowing the zombie in the slightest. [Garel: damage canceled by DR, no effect]

Jorn had had more experience with the zombies, having spent longer in this benighted realm. Wisely drawing his axe, good for close-range work, he hacked off the zombie's arm, dropping it to the ground. [Jorn: full damage]

Round 2:



G: Gurgun
G: Garel
S: Slove
J: Jorn

1, 2: Elf Skeletons

Slove swings his sword at Orc zombie.

OOC
10:12, Today: Slove rolled 8 using 1d6+4. damage.
10:11, Today: Slove rolled 13 using 1d20+8. attack with sword.

Mid-Round Update:

Slove's sword brushed harmlessly off the orc's studded leathed armour. [Slove misses]

The hobgoblin zombie shuffled behind the orc, and slipped his sword through the doorway at Jorn, who narrowly dodged it. [H moves to H7, attack 20 @ Jorn, miss]

The elf skeleton rattled forwards into the hobgoblin's place, firing an arrow that bounced off the door-frame instead. [S1 moves to G7, attack 13, miss]

Updates:

Hobgob Zombie in H7, Skeleton #1 in G7

 6 - Garel

Again!

With a well practiced swing (and a very annoyed grunt) Jorn struck with his axe again, trying to remove the obstructive zombie;

19:29, Today: Jorn Brightcaller rolled 9 using 1d6+3. Axe, Slashing Damage.
19:29, Today: Jorn Brightcaller rolled 22 using 1d20+5. Axe, Attack.

Again, the hobgoblin struck at the zombie using a creative combination of head-butt and elbow strike, the blows landing with terrifying force.

Get ready to take down the next one!

OOC: 17:24, Today: Gurgun Nightwhisper rolled 7 using 1d8+3. Damage 2.
17:23, Today: Gurgun Nightwhisper rolled 11 using 1d8+3. Damage 1.
17:23, Today: Gurgun Nightwhisper rolled 15 using 1d20+7. FoB 2.
17:23, Today: Gurgun Nightwhisper rolled 21 using 1d20+7. FoB 1.

OOC: The orc is down, so Jorn may change his action, or attack a new target (elf skeleton or hobgoblin zombie are available). Garel may also act now.

Mid-Round Update:

Gurgun's mighty limbs finally shattered the bones of the undead orc, and sent it slamming into the glass floor with a meaty thud. It didn't get up. [Gurgun slays orc zombie]

Jorn took off it's head with his axe, just to be sure, and was ready for the next one.

Updates:

Hobgob Zombie in H7, Skeleton #1 in G7, Orc Zombie slain

Initiative:
28 - Slove
21 - Elf Skeletons
11 - Hobgoblin Zombies
10 - Gurgun
10 - Jorn
 6 - Garel

"This one is for you, Jorn", says Garel to the metamorphosed dwarf. "My staff will be better used on the two skeletons that are coming. These undead will be easily dispatched, one at at time in this corridor, but there will be much more to come."

---

ooc: delaying action and letting the others go first on the undeads. Only two turn undead left: I am waiting for a larger number to use them

Jorn checks his swing and targets the hobgoblin zombie. Not letting up on the pressure the dwarf continues with the assault, sending another slash across the creature's hide;

OOC: Redirect original attack to 2nd zombie, and continue to attack it

[Standard] Attack Hobgoblin Zombie;

11:28, Today: Jorn Brightcaller rolled 4 using 1d6+3. Axe, Slashing Damage.
11:27, Today: Jorn Brightcaller rolled 22 using 1d20+5. Axe Attack.

OOC: Garel, let me know whe you want to act again.


Moving up to the doorway, Jorn's axe scored a grazing cut on the zombie, but it still very much unalive and dangerous. [Jorn hits, H slightly damaged]

Round 3:



G: Gurgun
G: Garel
S: Slove
J: Jorn

1, 2: Elf Skeletons
H: Hobgoblin Zombie, slightly damaged

Initiative:
28 - Slove
21 - Elf Skeletons
11 - Hobgoblin Zombies
10 - Gurgun
10 - Jorn

Slove gets his bow out again and lets of two arrows quickly.  Maybe just little to quick.

OOC:
13:28, Today: Slove rolled 10 using 1d20+9. attack with bow.
13:28, Today: Slove rolled 11 using 1d20+9. attack with bow.

Need I say any more.

OOC: Nope, that is a sad series of rolls...

ooc: waiting till after Gurgun and Jorn. After that, I will try to take a piece of the skels if there is one in range :)
