Seeing the Goblins exit out the door she nudges AdaRue to get her attention. "I'm going to miss Tom, but I'm not ready to join him yet. Let's get the table at the entrance here and see if we can make a safe place to fall back for our friends." She makes a gesture like a door opening and closing to show what she had in mind.

Hearing Keebler's words, along with Mila's nudge, AdaRue snaps back to the present. Right, she whispers. She helps Mila roll the table to the end of the tunnel, just inside the chamber, staying behind if for cover. She encourages Canun and Rainey to join them.


Onlyme: Tom's bow is probably what you are looking for in terms of better equipment. :)

Rainey

Rainey, who has been catching his breath after bringing the table over, will now move to set the table up as a shield or plug to block any fleeing goblins from getting down the hallway past them. It's probably not big enough, but it would limit the ways that they could go.

Watts takes aim with his bow at Skunk and lets the arrow fly only to disappointedly watch as the arrow sails past Skunk and bounce off of Borsh's shield.

Keebler fires at the goblin boss.

Short bow (THAC0 19): [1d20] = 16, [1d6] = 5

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Tippin hears the commotion to the north and quickly steps as far north as necessary to shoot an arrow at the goblin boss.

Junius grabs one of the bows he was evaluating as he sees the goblin bossman and fires toward him.

Shortbow [1d20+1] = 17+1 = 18; [1d6] = 6

Round 1
Skunk wastes no time and continues to flee from Borsh. He makes for the exit, avoiding Tippin, and stops short near the fallen body of Tom... and the approaching table being forced up the passage by Mila, AdaRue, and Rainey.

Borsh, unable to keep up with the fleeing minion, diverts his attention to the nearest intruder that captures his attention -- Keebler. He swipes at the elf with a longsword, which appears too large for him to handle with any degree of accuracy, but is unable to land a blow successfully. Grosh, initially hesitant, follows the lead of his boss and turns on the party. Picking up his stabby stabby, he lunges at Omdog, who's nearest him, and finds his blade easily slice through the magic user's garbs and sink into his chest. After a painful scream, Omdog falls silent -- then just falls.

Watts takes aim at Skunk, but the goblin's zip-zagging en route to his attempted exit causes the thief to fire wide. Tippin and Junius pepper Borsh with arrows, and Keebler, forced to switch to his blade after being engaged by the goblin boss, successfully sticks the hobgoblin.

The boss is dead!

    Zhym, Keebler can conserve an arrow as he was unable to shoot this round.

"Omdog! No!" cries Tippin. He looses an arrow at the duplicitous Grosh, but his aim is off.

Short bow (THAC0 19): [1d20+2] = 5+2 = 7, [1d6] = 4

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Keebler, using the cover of the rock, fares no better.

Short bow (THAC0 19): [1d20] = 3, [1d6] = 2

Canun helps the others wheel the table into the room. Slowly. He hears fighting and is in no mood to put his own head on the chopping block. Better to let the unfaithful fall first...

Junius quickly confirms this arrow has the better grip by letting loose another goblin arrow toward Grosh.

Already distraut over the loss of Tom, AdaRue hears Tippin's cry and feels compelled to lend what aid she can. Those guys are in trouble! She reaches past the edge of the table in an attempt to brain the goblin.

Broom [1d20+1] = 9+1 = 10, dmg [1d6+1] = 2+1 = 3
If she needs to leap past the table, that is alright.

Watts, seeing 2 comrades down, shakingly takes a couple of steps to get a better shot at Grosh with his bow.

Round 2
Skunk hops over the fallen form of Tom and rushes towards Mila. AdaRue, broom in hand, steps in front of her back-stepping companion and knocks aside the small goblin blade with her makeshift staff, then swings it wildly at the goblin, unable to connect.

Judging Tippin to be too far, and seeking to avenge the murder of his boss, Grosh rushes at Keebler! Tripping slightly as he ends his pursuit, the hobgoblin swipes at the elf wildly hitting nothing but air. Tippin circles around behind Grosh to gain a better angle; he and Watts send arrows zipping past the combatants and crashing into the far wall. The arrow from Junius nicks Grosh in his shield arm, causing the once-potential ally to yelp in pain, and appear weakened, but carry on.

Notes: Zhym, Keebler can conserve another arrow as he finds himself in melee before able to get his shot off.

AdaRue stands before the goblin like a mother bear protecting her cubs. She will not allow this creature to harm her friends. She stops the broom across the goblin's knees forcefully.

Keebler strikes clumsily at the hobgoblin.

Long sword (THAC0 19): [1d20] = 2, [1d8] = 7

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Tippin shoots at the hobgoblin...poorly.

Short bow (THAC0 19): [1d20+2] = 1+2 = 3, [1d6] = 2

This is going well. At least Tippin won't kill Keebler if he hits him. Unless the hobgoblin also hits. :(

Mila

Rushes behind Canun as if to hide, then pushes him forward with all the might she can muster trying to force him into melee to help AdaRue! "Help her you big dummy!!!"

Round 3
AdaRue stands before the goblin like a mother bear protecting her cubs. She smashes her broomstick down against the knees of Skunk, sending the foul little creature crashes to the ground, motionless. AdaRue has claimed a life. Behind the goblin-slayer, Mila pushes Canun forward. "Help her, you big dummy!!!" she says, scolding the inactive cleric. "Oh, very well!" spits Canun, annoyed. He grabs mace and shield and advances towards Skunk just in time to see it crumble; undoubtedly conjuring up ways to take credit for the victory.

Back in the chamber, Junius and Watts loose another round of arrows in the direction of Grosh and Keebler which sail harmlessly overhead. Distracted by the echoing whack sound brought on by AdaRue's staff, Tippin sends an arrow into the melee as well... and his eyes grow wide and his heart sinks as he watches his arrow strike Keebler square in his temple in his off arm, sending his elven companion to the verge of collapse. His elven companion falls! Grosh , surprised to see his opponent get dispatched for him, quickly steps around the Keebler and rushes towards Watts. The wounded hobgoblin miscalculates his route and catches his boot on the his former boss while attempting to clear Borsh. He stumbles and flails wildly at the thief while losing his balance Keebler, who, still reeling from his injury, is unsuccessful in the counter-attack provided him. Watts, with his longbow in hand, attempts to duplicate AdaRue's success and attempts to bash the Grosh with it, but the hobgoblin is able to deflect the blow while recovering.
