Since I thought running through the halls in the first place was folly, I am hesitant to add an opinion. :oops:

I think the organ and the statue are what stands out to me the most from the text.

I also think running against one wall is the only hope for the three stragglers. It should help reduce the number of attacks from the skeletons.

I only hope that Bo has time for one more healing spell to get his own strength back up, otherwise he aint moving very far each round. :?

I had wondered about the organ myself. Obviously, Jerome has his hands full, and is at the wrong end of the hall to contribute.

Well, crud!
Ugh. Sorry. This means Jerome cannot attempt to turn undead again in this encounter. :(

You should be good on that. Ingrid and Jerome can only move 10' and turn, so definitely heal yourself. Fortunately, the big bads behind us are also only moving 10' a round, so we're in decent shape there- until the thing behind them is no longer being slowed, anyway.

It is extremely likely that a hit or two will kill Rudolf this upcoming round, and then the undead will get through. I'm a wee bit worried about Mouser's rather unconventional move :D Any further ideas? I know that most of the PCs are just fighting for our lives, but we know the numbers are against us here and eventually we'll be overrun.
This is a game about killing things and taking their stuff so you can become more powerful in order to kill bigger things and take even better stuff.
Alethan: I'm good with NOT pressing our luck this time.
mjulius: That's how I know I'm home.
Pulpatoon: The whole point of PbP is to take the scheduling pressure off the game. We're just chatty because we're so eager!
Scott308: ...everyone should be reminded of just how wonderful the people they play games with here can be in real life.
Leitz: Quality and quantity wise, I think US is the best I've seen.
Paladin: I can promise terror, glory, and riches...or a quick and brutal death.
Inferno: Come on! That's was Vicar's Head, a completely different doomed village!
Rex: I can move to the wait list to let someone else into the game.

Heh heh, I don't think Rudolf even made it that far -- or he likely would have!

No.

Hi Urson,
You already posted this round. It was an attempt to turn the dead. I'll park this post here in case you want to use it next round. :)

Hi Urson,

Sorry. Just realized that Jerome has laid hands already today and cannot do so again. This info is shown at the bottom of every DM post (highlighted in red, below). :)

So we've definitely spilled rivers of (our own) blood, wild animals have swarmed against us, I guess the hordes of undead we've dealt with aren't a pestilence of livestock, but definitely a pestilence, Bo already brought about the thunderstorm of lightning and fire, I think it appropriate...
