I'm ready when everyone else is. Do we want one or two people pushing that wagon? That is, how heavy is it? If two, our strongest people are (in order) Ilya and Melianthe. We'll probably want Ostromir or Ilya covering Oleg (assuming we don't just open the gates ourselves once he's said a few words to convince them it's him and have him while we do it), since they're the toughest of us.

As much as Ilya would like the glory of being the one to greet the bandits at the door, he's willing to push the cart if his strength is needed.

And I, too, am ready.

Please specify where you start. So, inside the A3 etc. Middle of north wall etc.

I'll need stealth checks from those sneaking a peak at them as well.

Aretor will begin hiding behind the parapet of the South West tower, fully prone and taking as much cover is available to boost up his Stealth check. Also, what's the weather like this morning?

So I was going back through the OOC and noticed Chaos Lord's notes on firearms and how aware others are of them. Apologies for Ilya's slip-up earlier, and in my most recent post I mention his awareness of Aetor's unusual "devices" without naming them. Is this suitably unspecific for you, Chaos Lord? I figure Ilya might have seen him fussing over something underneath a tarp and worrying about keeping it dry. If not, I'll amend the post and get ready for Ilya to crap his pants when he hears gunfire for the first time.

No, no that was perfectly fine, and by no means did I mean to be so pointed about the whole thing. I did have him taking out the weapon after dinner in my last post and go over it with a fine toothed brush in order to clean and prepare it for this morning.

Sounds good. Just wanted to be sure since I felt bad about missing the whole discussion in the first place!

Like I said, no apology necessary, since we didn't really establish knowledge of fire arms from the get go.

I will be on the far side of A8, out of sight but near the ladder up to the north wall.

Double-post EDIT: Actually, scratch that. Ilya and I are working together to move the cart, so we'll be together, out of sight. Sorry.

Ok, I'm going to be making a Stealth check. What's the bonus for taking full cover and being prone on that Moranica?

The cover gives you a +4 AC and allows you to hide. If you remain fully prone, and thus do not look up to peak at the bandits, you will have full cover. Meaning no attacks or spotting vs. you.

Great, I'll be taking full cover then, and remain prone, listening for the bandits to arrive and Ilya and the others to make their move.

I would like to have cast Mage Armor about a half hour before Oleg expected the bandits to show up.

It has a duration of one hour, so I hope that would be okay, and that his expectation isn't off by that much.
Would that be okay?

You could have cast it when you heard them approachings.You would have had 2 minutes. This goes for everyone of course.

Lucky you got full cover, Chaos!

Edit: btw, moranica, do you want combat rolls posted in the ooc or spoilered in the Ic?

I am amazed by the fact that both the wagon pushers got exactly 5.

Let's just hope pushing a wagon is no harder than climbing a knotted rope, if it requires a strength check at all.

Well I'm expecting a swift fall into the mud given that I rolled a natural 1...

Leave it to the graceful master duelist to trip while pushing a wagon! The grease spell would have probably broken his tailbone.

I will roll initiatives for you. Makes it easier and faster.

Combat rolls spoilered in IC pls. When casting spells, pls add DC and effect.

how far away was the bandit leader at the start of my turn by the way? just to make certain I can reach him with a move action.

Now, that I am standing in battle with the bandits, what kind of armor and equipment are they wearing?

Also the curiosity is killing me, did I hit the leader?
14 could kinda go either way.
