TMU seems to have fallen out with the other Heroes already as he is heading off on his own. As he turns the corner he catches his first glimpse of a member of the Dark Company, a lone crossbowman, at the far end of the hallway.

The plucky Dwarf shoots down the crossbowman with an expert long range shot. Maybe the Dark company are not as big a threat as the Emperor feared?

Morcar's Turn

Two of the Orcs move in to attack the Elf...

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

Swiftfoot Defends
The Road Warrior rolled 5 6-sided dice:
6, 3, 5, 6, 2


Orc Attack:
The Road Warrior rolled 3 6-sided dice:
1, 4, 6


Swiftfoot Defends
The Road Warrior rolled 5 6-sided dice:

Swiftfoot defends both attacks with ease.

"The Dwarf's kill count has reacheb my own." Swiftfoot smiles at the orc next to him. "Let's you and I correct that!" :twisted:
Attack roll against orc to my east.
JasonMCM rolled 3 6-sided dice:
1, 3, 6

Eastern orc's defense roll.
JasonMCM rolled 2 6-sided dice:
1, 5


Battle rage shines in Swiftfoot's eyes as he turns to face his remaining adjacent opponent, and realized that right now having the Orc's Bane could have been useful.

"Apparently the amazon-born is the only one on our team who's heard of a bottleneck!"

mikemacdee rolled 2 6-sided dice:
5, 2


Althea moves between the two orcs and cleaves the nearer one in half (she ends two spaces south of the elf).
mikemacdee rolled 4 6-sided dice:
5, 4, 3, 3


Orc panics!
mikemacdee rolled 2 6-sided dice:
2, 3


She ends her turn grinning at the farther orc.

Althea skips past Swiftfoot, around the back of the nearest Orc and buries her axe in it's back.

At the other end of the hall TMU carries out a thorough search for traps and secret doors but finds nothing.

(TMU hasn't moved on this turn so you can roll 2 dice for movement on the next round if you want to.)

Image

Morcar's Turn
The last remaining Orc steps up to Althea and hacks away at her with his sword.

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


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


The Orc's blow is good but Althea is still able to defend against it.

"Death to all icky Orcs!"
Movement:
JasonMCM rolled 2 6-sided dice:
2, 6


Swiftfoot takes one step to the east and moves adjacent to the orc.

Attack:
JasonMCM rolled 3 6-sided dice:
3, 1, 1

Defense:
JasonMCM rolled 2 6-sided dice:
4, 1


And now that the hall is free of orcs, Swiftfoot begins to calm down.
