The thieves have taken notice of those on/near the trail. You see four

[Aroneth]

Init - (1 d20+0)[16]

Shield and mace at the ready. Aroneth takes a defensive stance.

[Kyace]

init - (1d20+5)[9]
I drop the bow and draw my rapier.

I ready an attack against the first thief to move and say "Ok, give yourselves up and drop your weapons or else we'll have to bring you in the hard way."

I will apply my dodge bonus against the thief to the north east of me in G6.

[RationalGoblin]

Luther

(OOC: Intitiavte: 1d20+2=22)

"I'd rather not kill them, but if they try to kill me, then I will pray for their souls."

Luther draws his longsword and smiles faintly.

[Sutherlands]

Draga Storg
(Initiative above)

Draga says "Ah, this gear is slowing me down" as he drops it and moves forward. Rushing forward 30 ft, he stops and yells "Halt thieves! and you will live." He begins reciting words to cause fear within the hearts of the thieves. (DC 14 will save, targetting the one in the middle)

[Sutremaine]

Joanna

Initiative: (1d20)[14]

Joanna shrugs off her pack and moves towards the group of thieves. She remains silent, observing each of the thieves in turn.

(OOC: moving from Q9 to Q6, I think. What do our opponents look like and what armour are they wearing?)

[Sutremaine]

(That should have been Q9 to Q3.)

[jlousivy]

the thieves seem to be waring green leather armour and are wielding small bladed weapons, the one in back has a shortbow cocked and aimed a little northeast, however upon "kyace"'s comment he changes aim.

note: please please put your character name at the top i have too many players to remember all names this early :-), and my apologies, i'm looking into a different sort of grid as I just noticed how terrible that one is

"Errg" grunts the thief as he barely manages to shake off the spell. "Change of plan boys! Take these guys out then get the cargo!"

ThiefA(shortbow) pulls back his bowstring and cries out "DIEEEE!"the arrow misses Arafin horribly.

ThiefB lunches forward stabbing Aroneth in the arm "HaHA!" (4 damage)

ThiefC dashes beside his friend and attempts to attack Aroneth, but his shield blocks the attack.

ThiefD runs up to arafin and his dagger slips past his left side

[Sutherlands]

(I moved 20 feet toward the enemy last round... I said 30, but I have medium armor on so even when I drop the backpack it's still base speed of 20 feet. Either way, I'm within charging distance. I'll post my action in a sec)

Don't put spaces next to the characters, it's throwing it off. Also, if you use the "Fixedsys" font, they'll line up perfectly. Voila.

[Sutremaine]

(I'm now completely confused. Are we using Sutherland's map, or the co-ordinates given underneath the original map for this round? I was going by the co-ordinates, since I couldn't read the original map.)

[Sutherlands]

I added a map that corresponds to the coordinates. What I didn't realize was that he had each character equal to a space, so it didn't line up at all with the top row.

[Sutremaine]

(Cool, thanks. L6 it is then.

Also, what are the sizes/races of each of the thieves?)

Aroneth swings his mace against the thief that hit him.

[Kyace]

(If Arafin wasn't to the north of Aroneth like I thought, I guess he takes five foot step to the east before he attacks the guy he couldn't reach. And to prevent Aroneth from being flanked.)

[jlousivy]

you may roll as you like. we can use sutherlands' grid (THANK YOU, i hate fonts) Each thief is human-sized.

Draga charges and smashes down his longsword digging deep into the thief's shoulder as the thief screams out in pain. In response he drops his bow and draws his dagger, thrusting it between Draga's armour plates. (5 damage)

Aroneth's mace connects clearly with the thief's neck.
Aroneth easily dodges one attack from a thief while the other's attack is narrowly deflected by his armour.

Arafin parries the thief's dagger just before it connects with his face.

*snap* With a sudden grin Luther charges the thief and cleanly cuts into the thief's neck causing it to hemmorage (critical hit 16 damage)

Joanna valiently swings at the thief but he manages to hop aside at the last second followed with a swing of his own hitting her in the side (4 dmg). Arafin, seeing an opening in the thief's defence as Joanna attacks, attacks as well rendering the thief unconcious.

Seeing the thief fall down beside him he runs off screaming "RETREAT!!!"(withdraw) to (L-01)

Draga smashes down his longsword scraping down the side of the thief's left arm.
The thief in melee with Draga cries out in pain then grunts"Spineless bastard get back here!" as he lunges at Draga once more for (3 dmg)

Joanna checks on her wounds and then those of the thief lying next to her. He doesn't seem to be in immediate danger of dying, so she turns to the rest of the group. "Aroneth, how is that other thief? He took quite a blow."

Spot: (1d20+2)[8]

Arafin

((There is just more woods to the north of the map, right?))

spot - (1d20+1)[8]
listen - (1d20+1)[2]

Unless something changes drastically (due to the spot check or the thief moving), Arafin will move to the square to the north west of the running thief. (Moving up to H3 then diagonally up to K0 for a distance of 40 ft.) Once there, Arafin will attack the remaining thief with rapier. If before Arafin can move, the thief moves to a point that doesn't put him 50 more feet away from Arafin, Arafin instead tries to charge the thief. If the thief moves farther than 50 ft more + the 30 feet distance he already has, and the spot check doesn't reveal anything drastic before then, then Arafin runs after him.

If due to the spot check, the fight changes before Arafin can attack, I'll wait until then to decide what Arafin does. If Arafin fails the spot check or the spot check doesn't change the fight much, then use the above actions.

Rolls for noncharging attack. Add 2 to attack roll for charing one.
