Why +1 Defend dice? I thought the bracers were for Attack dice.

EDIT: Ah, hell, guess I misread it. So you have 3 defend dice for the bracers and 1 attack die for the NA staff. Now I got it and edited my last post accordingly (which means your quote is out-of-date now...).

Hurgar has been going first most of the time, so you guys can wait for him or go at your leisure.

I'll quickly roll my movement so the updated map can show where I am. Hurgar can still perform an action though.

Well, can't reach him, so might as well EoT here.

Kili runs along after his new-found buddies. At least they haven't managed to escape him yet.

Daedalus rolled 2 6-sided dice:
5, 1


He ends up adjacent to Hurgar 1 square north.

@Sjeng-

I'll PM ya with a more compact spell list. It's a work in progress.

Hurgar:
Hurgar the Brash kicks in the door as his comrades race to catch up with him...

Image

Beyond is a lavish dining room lined with fine paintings and a few small glass cases displaying the most exquisite china in the house. The table has not been set -- indeed it won't be for several hours, until Baron Martense concludes whatever expedition he is currently on. The barbarian's stomach growls in protest.

A single Goblin slave seems to have been passing through the room (oddly from the south end of the table) when the door burst open. It hugs the east wall, thinking itself swift enough to gain the element of surprise...

Everyone Else:
The others curse the barbarian and his stomach as they scramble to reach him before more Fimir can throttle him.

Zargon's Turn:

Image

The Goblin lunges and attacks!
mikemacdee rolled 2 6-sided dice:
2, 5


Hurgar nonchalantly defends.
mikemacdee rolled 4 6-sided dice:
5, 4, 5, 4


The Goblin kind of stands there, dumbfounded.

The snarling and meat-chopping are louder, and seem to originate in the room beyond the west door. The heroes are close enough to realize that the snarling is coherent speech in a now-familiar daemonic tongue -- perhaps the chef is angry about having to do housework rather than fight intruders.

End of Turn

Well, that's obsolete by now. As the room I'm in has already been searched, and I have no movement left, the only possible action would have been attacking a monster that had stood directkly behind the door (could have thrown a dagger, but that would have been a waste on the goblin).

So Morcar had 'is pathetic attempt on Hurgar. Now Hurgar's turn again!

Attack:
Big Bene rolled 3 6-sided dice:
5, 6, 6

lil' nasty defends:
Big Bene rolled 1 6-sided dice:
2

Crap! Hurgar not smash well now...
Hurgar go two steps south (no roll needed) to make room for skinny-friends smashin' :barbarian: lil'-nasty
Have a look ;)
