TMU was wielding a crossbow last time I looked
I'll assume you fired before moving ;)
Just let me know which square you moved to so I can update the map.

Sorry, I remembered that dwarf has 3 dice. So I can only use the crossbow? I'll move east-north then and shoot with the crossbow :?

TMU dispatches the second orc with an expert shot that takes the poor monsters head right off. As the dwarf is showing off his trophy to the rest of the group Risky moves into the room and begins to search. He finds a secret door in the South wall.

Image

Morcar's Turn

Before the Heroes have time to consider their next move the secret door opens and a small band of Orcs lead by a Fimir rush out from the shadows, looking to avenge their fallen comrades..

Image

ImageImage

The first Orc out of the room rushes straight to the Wizard, looking for an easy kill.

Orc Attack:
The Road Warrior rolled 3 6-sided dice:
3, 5, 6

Wizard Defence:
The Road Warrior rolled 2 6-sided dice:
2, 4


The second Orc recognises the fearsome blade that the wizard is wielding and chooses to try it's luck against Althea.
Orc Attack:
The Road Warrior rolled 3 6-sided dice:
2, 1, 5

Althea Defence:
The Road Warrior rolled 4 6-sided dice:
6, 3, 3, 2


Finally the Fimir joins the battle swinging it's axe at the Wizard
Fimir Attack:
The Road Warrior rolled 3 6-sided dice:
6, 1, 5

Wizard Defence:
The Road Warrior rolled 2 6-sided dice:
3, 6


Risky expertly defends the first Orc's attack, but the Fimir is too good for him this time. Meanwhile Althea is taken by surprise by the second Orc and completely fumbles her defence
